How can I use fetchmail with Microsoft Exchange?
Fetchmail now supports the proprietary NTLM mode used with M$ Exchange servers. To enable this, configure fetchmail with the –enable-NTLM option and recompile it. Note: if you specify a user option value that looks like `user@domain’, the part to the left of the @ will be passed as the username and the part to the right as the NTLM domain. M$ Exchange violates the POP3 RFCs. Its LIST command does not reveal the real sizes of mail in the pop mailbox, but the sizes of the compressed versions in the exchange mail database (thanks to Arjan De Vet and Guido Van Rooij for alerting us to this problem). Fetchmail works with M$ Exchange, despite this brain damage. Two features are compromised. One is that the –limit option will not work right (it will check against compressed and not actual sizes). The other is that a too-small SIZE argument may be passed to your ESMTP listener, assuming you’re using one (this should not be a problem unless the actual size of the message is above the listener
