[Wylug-help] mail server problems

[Roger Beaumont]

More info:

Stopping the fetchmail daemon on the new box, starting it on the old 
box, and setting the 'Server settings' on the third to access dovecot on 
the old one gives error free operation - no DUL messages, just the 
correct arrival (via the old box) of the test message sent from the 
third box.

Since dovecot does seem to give IMAP access on both and fetchmail also 
seems to collect messages on both, I'm guessing its a postfix issue, 
though /root/.fetchmailrc does need to be different on each server: on 
the old box it's actually polling 3 mail servers - the current one plus 
my two previous, defunct, mail accounts; on the new one, I've chopped 
off those two out of date accounts, and 'user 
"roger at roger-beaumont.co.uk" there with password "************" is user 
"roger" here' has to change to, 'user "roger at roger-beaumont.co.uk" there 
with password "***********" is "roger" here' to avoid identifying 2 
local accounts, both 'roger' and 'user'.
