i've set up a little mailserver for my homeoffice, and after some problems everything works fine for me, I've some virtual users which get their mail delivered via getmail, and I can access my mails from my windows mailclient.

The only issue I'm still facing is, that I don't like to run getmail as a cronjob that connects to my online mailboxes every minute or so, I'd rather want it to do so every thirty minutes and whenever I request so by fetching my mails at my mailclient (e.g. outlook), I've font the Fetchmail Wakeup plugin, but according to the description this only works for version 1.1.x and 1.2.x but I'm running 1.0.13.

Anyone has any idea how to solve this or has a workaround?

Upgrade to 1.1.x or 1.2.x?

I believe that many people consider 1.0.x to be hideously ancient.

I believe that many people on this list will be significantly reluctant to help you with anything before 1.2.x.

Version 2.0.0 was declared the current release version last Monday (16 Aug 2010), with the previous current release version before that being 1.2.13.

I believe that many people on this will not consider "But My Distro Provides Version X!" to be a valid excuse. Find a more up-to-date binary package, upgrade your distro, install from source; there is always a way.
