yet another fetchmail howto<\/p>\n
Fetchmail “by default” hands off all retrieved e-mail to sendmail. You must
\nhave sendmail configured to add the FQDN to your e-mail address by either
\nusing a .forward file or an alias defined in \/etc\/aliases. If you must
\ncontinue using this alias, you will need to add the FQDN alias to your
\nexchange server mailbox settings so that it knows to accept e-mail for this
\naddress.<\/p>\n
If you want to disable fetchmail from handing off all “fetched” e-mail to
\nsendmail… use the “smtphost” directive in your .fetchmailrc file. This
\nwill, in essence, open an SMTP connection straight to your Exchange server
\nfor final delivery. Thus leaving the e-mail envelope (headers) intact.<\/p>\n
The following is my .fetchmailrc file. The smtphost entry is my internal
\nExchange server. The “set invisible” eliminates the fetchmail server from
\nadding itself to the e-mail headers as one of the “hops” this e-mail took on
\nits path to its final destination.<\/p>\n
