I am used to run fetchmail as follows:
fetchmail -d 60
which will poll my emails from around every minute ...
Now that used to work fine.
Then I figured that I wanted fetchmail to start automatically upon some
reboot, and added it.
Now I do have:
[andreas@domain andreas]$ ps aux | grep fetchmail
root 2051 0.0 0.1 3320 944 ? S 00:19 0:00 fetchmail -d
180 -f /etc/fetchmailrc
andreas 5357 0.0 0.2 3560 1372 ? S 02:30 0:00 fetchmail -d
60
andreas 10948 0.0 0.1 1828 624 pts/4 S 13:39 0:00 grep
fetchmail
which is weird for the root process polling every 180 seconds
as:
/etc/fetchmailrc has this one:
"
set daemon 60
poll [IP] with proto APOP interval 60"
So it should run every 60 seconds, according to my wishes.
I have no idea where the 180 seconds come from ... any hint would be nice as
the settings tell me it should state 60.
