I am using fetch mail as root to poll pop3.cnc.net with pop 3 protocol. If I receive a message of over three hundred k, I receive the message but the server times out during retrieval. The poll is interrupted and the long message is left on the server. When fetching in verbose mode, it sshows that the server timed out before the delete command could be issued. Could this be a configuration problem with my system and if so, how do I correct it? If it is not my system what do I ask concentric? concentric//xo communications does not support linux and doesn't care about the proboem. They have told me to use windows which they say works fine. Since I am not running windows I can't check that. If you would like to answer on the list, that will be fine. However if you would like to write to me my email address is mailto:billw11@concentric.net Thanks in advance for your help. love, Diana & the Magical Fuller Brush
