Hello,
I`ve problems with the first configuration of fetchmail.
I`ve a .fetchmailrc file as follows in my homedir.

------------------------ Cut here

poll pop.btx.dtag.de protocol pop3 user MYUSERNAME password MYPASSWORD

---------------------------

if i start it with typing "fetchmail" it says

   gethostbyname failed for hell

"hell" is my local hostname

Regards
