Just a short thank you for the author of this little snipplet: " This will hopefully save somebody hours of googling........ If using fetchmail with kolab, you may be collecting from an isp who uses qmail. Qmail puts a 'delivered-to' line into the mail header. When fetchmail passes such a mail onto postfix, postfix will read such a line in the header, and throw up a 'mail forwarding loop error, and not deliver the mail to the local user. The solution is to place 'dropdelivered' in the .fetchmailrc file as per the example which follows: poll mail at yourdomain.uk.com proto POP3 user thisonedrovememad4hours at yourdomain.uk.com password foobar dropdelivered is localuser1 at yourdomain.uk.com here user foundtheanswer at yourdomain.uk.com password yippee@@ dropdelivered is foundtheanswer at yourdomain.uk.com here " his contact seems to be: vincent at acheson.uk.com vincent at acheson.uk.com Whoever you are, you just saved my evening! Thank you very much!
