Hello. I've installed fetchmail via macports on my iMac. I know this question is not macports specific, but maybe someone knows... ordinateur-de-aurelien-dehay:/etc root# fetchmail -f fetchmailrc -N -v fetchmail: Avertissement: appeler fetchmail avec privil`eges root est d'econseille. fetchmail: 6.3.5 interroge imap.laposte.net (protocole IMAP) `a Wed Oct 18 22:00:12 2006 : r'ecup'eration en cours fetchmail: 'echec getaddrinfo("imap.laposte.net","imap") : No address associated with nodename 'Echec de connexion IMAP avec imap.laposte.net: Unknown error: 0 A "host imap.laposte.net" give me this answers: ordinateur-de-aurelien-dehay:/etc root# host imap.laposte.net imap.laposte.net has address 81.255.54.7 Host imap.laposte.net not found: 2(SERVFAIL) ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached A nslookup on the same address: ordinateur-de-aurelien-dehay:/etc root# nslookup

Non-authoritative answer: Name: imap.laposte.net Address: 81.255.54.7
My resolv.conf has only my ADSL router address (which forwards to the real DNS servers). What's the trick? Is it related to IPv6? I'm coming from Linux world, and my fetchmail conf is good, the same configuration works on my ubuntu box, I'm just waiting about migrating my mail configuration to swtich off my linux box... If anyone has a idea... Best regards. -- Aurélien
