Aww give me a break. I've been screwing around w/ linux for 10-12 yrs
and yes, fetchmail is installed. Otherwise how could my .fetchmail file
exist with perms of 700 as I stated in my original post?
dpkg -L fetchmail
..........huuuge snip.........
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/fetchmail
Yup, there it is.
Thanks for the effort.
