Re: Fetchmail with mails of mailing lists...



Hi Sandip,
        Yes you are right, i am using such kinda architecture,
I have removed the delivered to option but still the mail is going to
postmaster;
from the header it shows...

X-Fetchmail-Warning: recipient address flashcoders@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
didn't match any
    local name

X-Fetchmail-Warning: no recipient addresses matched declared local names

I am using Maildir for every user,

 Regards,

Yash
