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 `docker-mailserver` 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__: Dont 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
```
For more informations about the configuration script `setup.sh` [[read the corresponding wiki page|Setup-docker-mailserver-using-the-script-setup.sh]].
Here a sample output of `./setup.sh debug fetchmail`:
