I tried to help Wade, but got in over my head.
I'm sure it is a postfix config issue too, but don't know how to resolve it.
Some particulars about his usage:
1. His postfix is NOT authoritative for his domain - he is just using it
with fetchmail to grab his email. Since I've never even used fetchmail
- does he even NEED postfix to do this?
2. All he wants to be able to do is pull all of his mail from where it
is being hosted, down to a local maildir setup that is served by dovecot...
I hope someone here can help him, because I'd like to know how to do
this myself...
