   getmail doesn't seem to work for me. I think I remember that   
   I switched to fetchmail some time ago because getmail stopped   
   working.   
      
   This is the .getmailrc file I am using:   
      
   [retriever]   
   type = SimplePOP3Retriever   
   server = pop.gmail.com   
   username = MYNAME   
   password = MYPASS   
   port = 995   
   [destination]   
   type = Maildir   
   #type = Mboxrd   
   path = /var/spool/mail/root   
   #[other-destination-1]   
   #type = Mboxrd   
   #path = /var/spool/mail/root   
   #user = root   
   [filter-3]   
   type = Filter_external   
   path = /root/bin/mailfilter   
   allow_root_commands = 1   
   ignore_stderr=true   
   ##arguments = ('--message-from-stdin', '--remove-all-but-attachm   
   nt-types=text/plain,text/rfc822')   
   #user = root   
      
   I had been using Mboxrd. I switched to Maildir and had to create   
   a number of directories before getmail would run. It still reports   
   no mail even though I know mail is waiting for me.   
      
   Please help, I haven't done anything with mail in over a decade.
