To enable the [fetchmail](http://www.fetchmail.info) service to retrieve e-mails set the environment variable `ENABLE_FETCHMAIL` to `1`. Your `docker-compose.yml` file should look like following snippet:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
...
|
|
environment:
|
|
- ENABLE_FETCHMAIL=1
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Generate a file called `fetchmail.cf` and place it in the `config` folder. Your dockermail folder should look like this example:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
├── config
|
|
│ ├── dovecot.cf
|
|
│ ├── fetchmail.cf
|
|
│ ├── postfix-accounts.cf
|
|
│ └── postfix-virtual.cf
|
|
├── docker-compose.yml
|
|
└── README.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Configuration
|
|
|
|
A detailed description of the configuration options can be found in the [online version of the manual page](http://www.fetchmail.info/fetchmail-man.html).
|
|
|
|
## Example IMAP configuration
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
poll 'imap.example.com' proto imap
|
|
user 'username'
|
|
pass 'secret'
|
|
is 'user1@domain.tld'
|
|
ssl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example POP3 configuration
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
poll 'pop3.example.com' proto pop3
|
|
user 'username'
|
|
pass 'secret'
|
|
is 'user2@domain.tld'
|
|
ssl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__IMPORTANT__: Don’t forget the last line: e. g. `is 'user1@domain.tld'`. After `is` you have to specify one email address from the configuration file `config/postfix-accounts.cf`.
|
|
|
|
More details how to configure fetchmail can be found in the [fetchmail man page in the chapter “The run control file”](http://www.fetchmail.info/fetchmail-man.html#31).
|
|
|
|
## Polling interval
|
|
|
|
By default the fetchmail service searches very 5 minutes for new mails on your external mail accounts. You can override this default value by adding this line to your `fetchmail.cf`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
set daemon 60
|
|
```
|
|
You must specify a numeric argument which is a polling interval in seconds. The example above polls every minute for new mails.
|
|
|
|
# Debugging
|
|
|
|
To debug your `fetchmail.cf` configuration run this command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./setup.sh debug fetchmail
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
