Testing mail import

a) Send an email to the address as configured in /web/projop/.fetchmailrc
    To send an email to a project the emails subject would need to start with the project number in brackets, e.g.: [2012_0001]
c) Check if fetchmail gets mails from server and copies them to mail directory as configured  above (default: /web/projop/Maildir/new)
d) Check log file (web/projop/log/error.log) for occurrences of "Notice: im_mail_import.process_mails" to track importing process

Troubleshooting mail import

• Import might fail due to a missing "Subject", in this case mails are moved to folder " /web/projop/Maildir/defered" 
• Run fetchmail manually in verbose mode to see what's going on: fetchmail -v

  $ fetchmail --nokeep -s -v -K
