Eric,
Attached is a patch (against fetchmail 5.9.11) that works around the
Microsoft Winsock recv/WSARecv(..., MSG_PEEK) problem that I originally
post to fetchmail-friends in:
http://lists.ccil.org/pipermail/fetchmail-friends/2001-August/000906.html
This patch is essentially the same as the one that I posted in:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-08/msg00628.html
but cleaned up as follows:
o Cygwin specific code is guarded by conditional compilation
o log messages use report() instead of printf()
o log messages respect the --silent/--verbose options
Would you consider accepting this patch into fetchmail CVS? Note the
following:
o Unfortunately, this problem cannot be fixed or worked around in
the Cygwin DLL itself.
o I have tested this patch under Red Hat Linux 7.1 without any ill
effects.
o I intend to become the Cygwin fetchmail (and procmail) maintainer
and will be contributing pre-built fetchmail (and procmail)
tarballs to the standard Cygwin distribution.
BTW, please CC me since I am not subscribed to the fetchmail-friends
list.
Thanks,
Jason
