Problem... I followed the tutorial on YouTube to setup the Event Editor so
that automatic polling would kick off 5 after the hour. However, the only way
I get anything is if I manually run fidopoll 21:1/100|mutil mailin.ini

That works just fine. I get messages and all, jsut seems like I have to do it manually in order to receive anything.

So I watched the video tutorial again, and I have it setup the same again.

Thoughts?

^^^^^

It looks like you're running on Linux.

Set the command to: ./fidopoll 21:1/100|./mutil mailin.ini

After making changes in mystic -cfg you'll need to restart mis.

Have you tried putting the full path to the fidopoll executable in the event?
