Subject: [pmg-devel] [PATCH pmg-api v3 3/3] api: fetchmail: restart fetchmail on config changes
Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2025 21:27:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250926192941.89086-6-s.ivanov@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250926192941.89086-1-s.ivanov@proxmox.com>
Based on feedback from Max (big Thanks!) in:
https://lore.proxmox.com/pmg-devel/DD2PXG51NFKF.2D5G45FY3K66F@proxmox.com/T/#t
The handling of fetchmail config can probably still be improved, but
restarting the daemon, when something changes (it was the easiest way
I found to get fetchmail to re-read its config) should improve UX
quite a bit. IIRC currently changing the config still requires
restarting fetchmail on the commandline (or rebooting).
