Hi all. Well in my case, fetchmailrc is nowhere to be found so gotta create it manually. However I already have a checkmail script that can run it at any time set in crontab. My question is does fetchmail have to be in daemon mode in order to automatically transmit the password? I put in auth password xxxxx where xxxx is my password. I've been wanting to set up a cron job that would automatically poll my mailserver using my script but couldn't figure out how to automatically log in.
