  Hi,

please check your gmx settings carefully. You cannot always mix gmx.de
and gmx.net. 

Please make sure you are using the right username for your pop3 account.
I need to login with _full_ e-mail adddress, from my .fetchmailrc

poll pop.gmx.net protocol pop3
        user dietmar.goldbeck at gmx.de password mekmitasdigoat


If nothing else helps, try posting detailed error messages.

    regards,
 
       Dietmar
