Re: [orca-list] fetchmailrc permissions



If the .fechmailrc is in your home folder i.e /home/ubuntu-mate I am assuming that is also the owner of the file: Are you running fetchmail as ubuntu-mate?

Hi,
with my .fetchmailrc file in my home folder, and permissions of 600, running fetchmail tells me that 
.fetchmailrc must be owned by me.
The user name I'm using is ubuntu-mate, and that is not the name of the mail account I'm trying to access.
Is that the problem here, or is that message related to something else?
Thanks for any help.
