Hi Guys, I am facing a problem with my fetchmail .I have PCQLinux 7.1 .When I try to download mailfrom my ISP's IMAP mailserver.I get the following error message fetchmail: 5.9.5 querying imap.satyam.net.in (protocol IMAP) at Thu, 15 Nov 2001 16:46:23 +0530 (IST): poll started fetchmail: IMAP< * OK IMAP4rev1 Server Ready. fetchmail: IMAP> A0001 CAPABILITY fetchmail: IMAP< * CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT fetchmail: IMAP< A0001 OK CAPABILITY completed fetchmail: IMAP> A0002 LOGIN "my_login" "*" fetchmail: IMAP< A0002 NO Login failed. fetchmail: IMAP> A0003 * fetchmail: Authorization failure on my_login@imap.satyam.net.in fetchmail: IMAP> A0004 LOGOUT fetchmail: IMAP< A0003 NO Error in IMAP command received by server. fetchmail: IMAP< * BYE IMAP4rev1 server shutting down fetchmail: IMAP< A0004 OK LOGOUT completed fetchmail: 5.9.5 querying imap.satyam.net.in (protocol IMAP) at Thu, 15 Nov 2001 16:46:29 +0530 (IST): poll completed fetchmail: Query status=3 (AUTHFAIL) fetchmail: normal termination, status 3
Fetchmailrc for this looks like this :
poll imap.satyam.net.in with proto imap: user my_login, with password mypasswd,is sachin here;
Fetchmail works well with my POP servers
Thanks in advance !!!

I don't know about IMAP, but what is that comma and that semicolon doing there? Is it allowed in .fetchmailrc?
Sometime on Nov 15, Satya assembled some asciibets to say:
poll imap.satyam.net.in with proto imap: user my_login, with password mypasswd,is sachin here;
I don't know about IMAP, but what is that comma and that semicolon doing there? Is it allowed in .fetchmailrc?
Yes. Fetchmail ignores all punctuation marks, and punctuation words. Basically, it ignores the words 'there', 'here', 'with', 'is', etc. I think it is in the man page, but it may be in some other documentation.

It must be ,cause I've used it for accessing POP servers and they work fine. The man page for fetchmail says that in .fetchmailrc fetchmail searches only for its reserve words like "user" "pass" "is" etc .Rest are all ignored .
