[fetchmail]Fetchmail fails to fetch mails with ipv6 host, is patch avail for this

2004-06-05 03:31:26
Hi list,


As I discussed in my previous mail that trying to fetch mail with ipv6
address  fails with the error "couldn't find canonical DNS name of
fe80::230:6eff:fe48:a45b",
now I got it worked to connect with ipv6 address after the change of the
function replacement with getipnodebyname instead of gethostbyname( it does
not have ipv6 support in my OS version of HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64 3738763113).
So now I  could succeed with  connect and authenticate but ending  with
"fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)", it fails  to fetch the mail as
follows, Can anyone give me suggestion or any pathc avilab to make it work
it out!!!!!!!!

# ./fetchmail -v -u usha fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3
Enter password for usha(_at_)fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3:
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol auto) at Sat
Jun  5 11:21:26 2004: poll started
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol IMAP) at Sat
Jun  5 11:21:26 2004: poll started
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol IMAP) at Sat
Jun  5 11:13:18 2004: poll completed
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol POP3) at Sat
Jun  5 11:13:18 2004: poll started
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol POP3) at Sat
Jun  5 11:13:18 2004: poll completed
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying fe80::230:6eff:fe39:b7b3 (protocol auto) at Sat
Jun  5 11:13:18 2004: poll completed
fetchmail: Query status=2 (SOCKET)
fetchmail: normal termination, status 2

But the above similar test  works for ipv4 host adress, given below:

# ./fetchmail -v -u usha 172.16.1.178
Enter password for usha(_at_)172(_dot_)16(_dot_)1(_dot_)178:
