Hi Henry, Back again. I had to reset the clock and do the conversions to pem files and run c_rehash. None of this work had any effect on fetchmail's performance though. The two pem files were found by c_rehash and linked this time too. Could this version of slackware 13.0 fetchmail simply not be able to do this yet?On Mon, 7 Feb 2011, Henry Yen wrote: > Comments in-line. > > On Mon, Feb 07, 2011 at 04:52:31AM -0500, Jude DaShiell wrote: > > I fixed the sslcertpath in my .fetchmailrc file.
