Hi Joanne :) Since installing FC6 on this system, useing the same
fetchmailrc and procmailrc files as I was using for FC2, I am now getting
a very terse message from something unidentified for every fetchmail poll
that actually fetches a message from vz, and it looks like it might be a
report from some automatic sa_learn script. But I can't find anything
that looks like it should be sending me a mail, nor can I find where to
shut the auto-learn off if thats the src of these messages. Its around
2-300 a day, so its not trivial to dispose of them.
All header lines are empty and the message is "Learned token(s) from
messages(number, may be 0), scanned messages(number, may be 0)"
Have you installed FC6, and if so, are you being mailbombed by this
artifact?
