[Bug 1082210] Re: 7.0 fetchmail configuration problem

 

I'm sorry but I am reopening this bug as a SECURITY FLAW.

When you set up a catchall domain (Olivier's option 2) and somebody in
the world just sends an email to a user that does not exist in OpenERP's
alias list, the whole fetchmail process dies with the described
AssertionError and no more emails are processed.

Spambots do this often, so a single non-filtered spam email would just
crash the whole fetching process forever until the admin realizes and
deletes that message directly from the mailbox.

Solution: Add a catch-all alias to OpenERP, so unhandled email gets sent
there. However this is not possible right now AFAIK.

  probably because I didn't configure anything   for 
  Actions to Perform on Incoming Mails
