Dear list,
I am running dovecot with LDAP. Each account has email in form abc@example.com, and messages are stored at /var/vmail/abc/Maildir. This is an external mail server, and I would like to use a cron job to fetch all messages to an internal server which has slow internet connection. It seems getmail supports multidrop retriever which might fit the bill. However I could not figure out how to set up an account that can be used to fetch all messages for all virtual accounts. Is it possible at all?
thanks, Tony
