fetchmail suitable for this task?
Hi all.
I'm currently building my own webmail server but I will need to collect my mail from several different account scattered around the 'Net.
I know fetchmail can do this. The problem I have is that my main POP3 mailbox at my ISP lumps all users' e-mails into one box.
This means that e-mails to
joe1@domain.net,
bob@domain.net,
sarah@domain.net etc are all thrown into
joe@domain.net mailbox.
Is this what is referred to as a multidrop mailbox? What is the best way of attacking this problem so that when I collect mail, I can configure bob's mail to go to bob's QMail maildir instead of to joe's?
TIA.
