Hi all,

Anyone know how to specify for fetchmail in .netrc the “folder” to read ?

If tried folder XYZ
and it says unknown token folder. Man page says that should work.

  • it also says unknown token for “timeout”
    version is 6.3.24 and man page says timeout is valid as a token.

  • I assume the manpage you reference is fetchmail’s.

    If my reading is correct, the only thing(s) that fetchmail will get from .netrc is the user & password for a host it will access. The rest of the stuff should got into
    ~/.fetchmailrc.
