I'm trying to set up fetchmail to (surprise) fetch my mails. First I replaced ssmtp by postfix, now fetchmail is stuck with this:
Code:

fetchmail: POP3< .
3 messages for ng.ehahn@gmx.de at pop.gmx.net (14227 octets).
fetchmail: POP3> LIST 1
fetchmail: POP3< +OK 1 4219
fetchmail: POP3> RETR 1
fetchmail: POP3< +OK
reading message ng.ehahn@gmx.de@pop.gmx.net:1 of 3 (4219 octets)
Trying to connect to 127.0.0.1/25...connected.

It stays that way until I CTRL-C it.

Postfix (Version 2.5.5) is started, I haven't changed any config files.

No, and the problem misteriously disappeared after a few reboots.
