Hello Luggers/GNUer's
I have implemented Technoinfosys SBS Server 2004 at my office.We use it for proxy,natting,mail,file server etc.I have 50 users on the network configured for fetching mail from the server.Every time i have to manually check all the account for downloading the messages.Is there any way that fetchmail checks all the servers by itself every 30 or 60 minutes.Can a small script be written which can automate the process.Even half hearted clues will be appreciated.
Regards, Rohit Baisakhiya.

We have a script which runs from cron. You could have it fetch mail either for users in /etc/passwd or as in our case /etc/mail/virtusertable/.
