none - it is using my .fetchmailrc directly - which consists of:
set daemon 0
set postmaster edward
poll mail.iinet.net.au protocol pop3
no dns aka tripled.iinet.net.au
user tripled is * here
password *******
The cron job simply runs fetchmail as my edward user.

No. Are there .fetchmailrc equivalents for these? (I don't see any
.fetchmailrc man pages). If not I will change the way CRON calls it to
try it.
Thanks so far Stephen.
