Greetings,
I have just released fetchmail 6.2.9-rc9, the hopefully last release
candidate before 6.3.0, with minor bug fixes.
For distributors, please upload this to every unstable/testing/current
distribution that you have (do not upload to "stable", it changes
behavior in a few places) to expose this to wider testing.
Changes since -rc8 are:
* The default for --smtphost is now always "localhost" regardless of
authentication types and protocols, so as to simplify configurations for
workstations where the SMTP daemon only listens on the loopback interface.
Sunil Shetye & Matthias Andree
* Man page: update --smtphost documentation. Sunil Shetye, Matthias Andree.
* Man page: update --smtpaddress documentation. Sunil Shetye.
* Fix several memory leaks and bugs in the SMTP/LMTP retry logic where
fetchmail confused UNIX and Internet domain sockets. Sunil Shetye.
* Man page (BUGS): document that passwords are length limited. Matthias Andree
* Man page: Document that quoted strings that run across line boundaries
contain the control characters (CR or LF). Document explicitly the backslash
escape sequences and their differences from the escape sequences used in the
C programming language. Matthias Andree
* Fix segfault when run control file ends with a backslash inside an
unterminated quoted string. Matthias Andree.
* In quoted strings, support backslash as last character on a line to join the
following line to the current. Matthias Andree.
* Parsing untagged IMAP responses is more robust now. Matthias Andree.
* Man page: Remove some procmail praises in --mda documentation, suggest
maildrop instead, warn of procmail fallthrough behavior. Matthias Andree.
* Man page: Revise AUTHORS and SEE ALSO sections. Matthias Andree.
* Updated translations: Albanian [sq] (Besnik Bleta), Catalan [ca] (Ernest
Adrogué Calveras), Czech [cs] (Miloslav Trmac), German [de] (MA),
Spanish (Castilian) [es] (Javier Kohen), French [fr] (MA),
Polish [pl] (Jakub Bogusz), Russian [ru] (Pavel Maryanov).
* In oversized warning messages, print the account name, too. Fixes Debian
Bug#213299. Sunil Shetye (MA).
* Fix '!: command not found' in configure script on nonconformant shells
such as Solaris' /bin/sh.
* The IMAP trail-eating fix in -rc8 was broken and fixed by Sunil
Shetye.
I seek everyone to test it out, report remaining bugs, update outdated
translations (send your translated .po files to the translation
project's robot, it'll forward your translation to the -devel list) or
send patches for documentation or report inconsistencies (including
formatting!) in the documentation.
The software is available from:
