Does anybody here use APOP? I'd tried but authentication fails all the

fetchmail: Authentication failed.
But the md5-hash should be 965fd94b9eade573bb4b5e61392a5397 (md5 of
"<1ee9468d63a136c4da793bb5db69a431(_at_)pop(_dot_)netlight(_dot_)de>test").
Is this a bug
in fetchmail or do I have to specify my password in another way in
fetchmailrc?
I don't use APOP, but I don't think fetchmail is miscalculating
the MD5 hash:
$ echo -n
'<1ee9468d63a136c4da793bb5db69a431(_at_)pop(_dot_)netlight(_dot_)de>test' |
md5sum
9da10ec15df4b2607ba4e5e701f4955c
$ echo
'<1ee9468d63a136c4da793bb5db69a431(_at_)pop(_dot_)netlight(_dot_)de>test' |
md5sum
965fd94b9eade573bb4b5e61392a5397
Do you really want to include the newline?
