Here are the release notes:
fetchmail-5.9.13 (Sat Jun 22 17:53:00 EDT 2002), 21791 lines:
* Cygwin port fixes for socket.c.
* Matthias Andree's patches to:
(a) clean up xmalloc types,
(b) improve distclean,
(c) use sendmail -i in configure.in and dump the fallback configuration,
(d) turn fallback off by default.
* Scott Gifford's dotted-quad patch.
* Updated Danish translation.
* RPM now built with SSL and IPv6 support, reflecting what's in RH 7.3.
* Sunil Shetye's patches to send CAPA during POP3 sessions and improve
the PS_RETAINED behavior slightly.
* Yann Droneaud's fix to eliminate a socket leak on error.
There are 506 people on fetchmail-friends and 669 on fetchmail-announce.
This was going to be 6.0.0, but I'm going to leave some time for Mike
to gin up the IPv6 patch fix. Also I want a corrected version of
Jan Klaverstijn's verbosity-reduction patch.
By popular demand, diffs from the previous release have been omitted.

There's a truism that the road to Hell is often paved with good intentions.
The corollary is that evil is best known not by its motives but by its
*methods*.
