Fetchmail start-up on system boot

RT Users
1

Guys,

I as able to manage throw the configuration of fetchmail in order to poll my
queue emails from my email Server.

I create an account, set the .fetchmailrc and so. When starting the service
(# /usr/bin/fetchmail) the app works fine.

As finishing the job I wanted to add fetchmail to run when the system boots,
so when to the /etc/rc.local and add the line /usr/bin/fetchmail.

Unfortunatly this isn’t working.

Anyone run throw the same problem/mistake??

Many Thanks

Sebastian.-

Just create an rt_user in the system and add /usr/bin/fetchmail to a
cron that runs every X minutes:

0-59/2 * * * * /usr/bin/fetchmail -s
