FM Pop 3

My FM acct quit getting mail from RB mail via pop3. Been working great but all at once quit. Could this be RB's fault or FM's fault?

I don't know, but this thread could suggest the former.

I have had no experience with RunBox for a long time. There were major changes to the way Fastmail handles POP links some months ago, but nothing I am aware of that is recent. When did the problem start occurring?

It started suddenly today and still will not bring mail from RB I get notice each time from FM that the retrieve has failed. RB works normal and so does FM with all other functions. No big problem I can live with it but never had this problem before

You could (if you wanted to) simply forward your mail from Runbox to Fastmail and leave a copy of your mail at Runbox as well. I am not using Runbox at present so cannot give detailed instructions on how to do this.

Thanks David and other responders. You are correct, simple way is to forward RB mail th FM. That will resolve problem
