I just manually cleaned off 460+ emails from my ISP's mailbox that I
'fetch' mail from.
they were logging in my fetchmail log as...
fetchmail: incorrect header line found while scanning headers
and they seemed to be 100% spam. It would be better to let them through
and have my 'sieve' filter spank them here than to leave them on my
ISP's system.
This is my .fetchmailrc
defaults
set daemon 180
set postmaster craig
set nospambounce
set nobouncemail
set logfile /home/craig/fetchmail.log
poll mail-phx-03.alevelhigher.com
proto imap
localdomains azapple.com
user "notsignificant"
pass "notsignificant"
batchlimit 25
Is there some setting that I am missing that prevents them from being
retrieved and then flushed?
Is it because of something in my sendmail.mc file like
FEATURE(`blacklist_recipients')dnl ?
I will note that I have this set
FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
since the ISP has already accepted the mail, it seems pointless to
refuse it now.
