Any suggestions?              I can not say for sure but I do know I seem to get gmail       failures every two or three days from my 24/7 hourly fetchmail cron       jobs. All of them are log in failures. I noticed fetchmail goes       into a tight loop upon login failure. Had to add a spawn kill fetchmail       if still running after a minute.              My guess was that gmail suspends your login if too many attempts       from your ip. I have seven separate accounts running fetchmail on       the hour and assumed I cross a threshold every once in awhile.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
