If you ran fetchmail as root, that'd be why. Again, I don't see the reason
for running fetchmail here. Fred should be able to login and get his mail
as user fred.

Yes, I do want the above (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:fred@bozo.com">fred@bozo.com</a> goes to fred@localhost), but I don't
want all of the individual users having to "fetchmail" from the ISP server
-- expecially since they don't have accounts there. I only want one user
(root, for example) to pick up the mail on the ISP's server, and then I want
the mail distributed on the local server so that the users can log in locally
and pick up their individual mail. So far, all I can find to make that work
is a combination using procmail.<br>
<br>
However, I was under the (perhaps mistaken) assumption that I did not need
procmail; rather that the virtusertable entries somehow made this work. I'm
not seeing it happen though.<br>
<br>
I've hit the Internet hard, and I keep finding snippets, but nothing diffinitively
lays out whether or not this works and/or what combination of effects makes
it work.<br>
