Well, I use to be get getmail running but with fetchmail everything
seems awesome, so why change?, yeah I run fetchmail as a daemon with
fetchmail -vvv an a properly configured .fetchmailrc but when i try to
boot up fetchmail within a rc script this won't start, so a cron job
seems the perfect way to me right now.
