I am using ubuntu and can not get mail to come in. my mail server accepts pop or imap. I am trying to figure out which cron file to edit. postmaster ? fetchmail etc. can you please advise?

The crontab should be setup for the user otrs. You can view it using the command: crontab -l -u otrs Look for the line # fetch emails every 10 minutes */10 * * * * $HOME/bin/PostMasterPOP3.pl >> /dev/null and make sure its not commented out. I like mine to check mail every 2 mins, soo I just replaced the 10 with a 2. To edit the file you can use the command: crontab -e -u otrs Have fun.

It depends on the method you choose for receiving mail. See section 7.2 in the docs for the various methods: http://doc.otrs.org/2.3/en/html/x1331.html Nils Breunese.
