In textmode, my fetchmail spool file is unreadable by MH and other mail utilities? Can someone tell me how to switch from textmode to binmode? I tried the command mount -b --change-cygdrive-prefix cygdrive as suggested in the faq, but it seemed to have no effect. I also mucked with the registry to add fbinary = 1 to all the mount points, but *that* also had no effect. Any clues here?
