Hello,

I wish to get "Fetchmail Wake" works in my environment. This plugin send 
SIGUSR1 to fetchmail so it wakes up when mail client grabs mail.

For the moment "Fetchmail Wake" is executed by mail_uid (defined in 
dovecot.conf) which is not enough to send signal to fetchmail daemon 
(and access to fetchmail.pidfile).

Thank you!
