FETCHYAHOO(1) General Commands Manual FETCHYAHOO(1) bg. NAME
fetchyahoo - retrieve mail from Yahoo!'s webmail service SYNOPSIS
fetchyahoo [options] DESCRIPTION
FetchYahoo is a Perl script that downloads mail from a Yahoo! account to a local mail spool. It is meant to replace fetchmail for people using Yahoo! mail since Yahoo!'s POP service no longer free. It downloads messages to a local mail spool, including all parts and attach- ments. It then deletes messages unless requested not to. It can also optionally forward messages to a specified e-mail address and repeat with a given interval. OPTIONS
