I REALLY need some help. I've included a lot of diagnostic stuff in this email to help the troubleshooting process. Please help. <snip>
Ok, I got it to work, but only by extending the timeout parameter in my .fetchmailrc file from 30 seconds to 120 seconds. This brings up an intermittent problem I have with slow responses to connections. Some connections are slow, exceeding the timeout of 30 seconds. So, I would guess that this is the root cause. Slow response to this: ssh localhost Good response to this: ssh 192.168.1.12 TIA, Bill
