Re: daemon opens blank dos windows for its subprocess
Fetchmail now runs as a service. It's solved.
Just wondering : what happends with its stderr if there are some errors?
(with or without the --nodetach)
Besides, what client are you using ? I used Pine a lot but I prefer
graphical clients at the end. So I'm using xinetd/uw-imapd.
