Hi, I don't use courier, but I notice that you're still using the ssh plugin in your .fetchmailrc. Replace the plugin line with the single keyword "ssl", without the quotes, of course. I see that you're beating up on speakup.octothorp.org with IMAP over ssh. try the above mentioned configuration into speakup first. I know that my IMAP over SSL configuration works, but I'm using UW IMAP, not Courier. HTH.
