I think the syntax is "user shauno is shaun here" assuming your local account is shaun and your pop3 account is shauno. I don't have to deal with this however, as I run fetchmail as the user that it's intended for. This has its advantages - you can control polling for mail on a user-by-user basis. Running it this way, you need only do "user shauno" as it will deliver to the account running the process. Geoff.
