Basically, I am using Mutt as my MUA, and I have either getmail or
fetchmail configured to receive my POP3 mail from Comcast, which is via
mail.comcast.net. I am using msmtp as my smtp client, and have no
trouble sending mail from Mutt...just can't receive. Both the
.fetchmailrc and getmailrc configurations have worked in the past. Is
this possibly a sendmail issue? The fetchmail.log repeatedly indicates
"Trying to connect to 76.96.54.12/110...connection failed: Operation
temed out."
