Hi shake,

it was only an acceptance from the past, to use fetchmail.
The goal is to fetch the mails from 3rd party accounts via pop3 and deliver them to the local user.
Is there anything in iredmail/iredadmin already prepared for?

BR

I'm sorry shake, but I didn't understand. I can't find any options to set all these in iredadmin, not even in the full featured edition (I'd checked the demo and installed on my server the downloadable OS edition). Please help me to understand these confusion.

Hi ZhangHuangbin,

thanks for reply. First I will say there is no vision on my side corresponding the hope you will deliver the complete solution for my need.
Maybe there is a misunderstanding on my side: The iRedAdmin feature "Fetch mails via POP3" under "Service Control" doesn't mean the fetching of 3rd party mail accounts, but rather one of the deliver method from iredmail solution itself!? That means there is no preperation that I can use to fetch my emails from other provider to the "local" virtual ldap user? If thats right, I must find the way to forward the fetched mails (cron job) to Dovecot...

Thanks, will be back with a working solution here...

Hello,

here is what working for ubuntu/debian:

/etc/fetchmailrc
(polling every 15 min with "set daemon")

set no bouncemail
set no spambounce
set properties ""
set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log
set daemon 900

poll pop.provider.za proto pop3
     user "user_name" with pass "user_pass" is "ldapuser@mydomain.za" here
     ssl

/etc/default/fetchmail

...
START_DAEMON=yes
...

Finally start the daemon

# /etc/init.d/fetchmail start

...and for reboot working

# update-rc.d fetchmail defaults

touch /var/log/fetchmail.log
chown fetchmail:users /var/log/fetchmail.log
