sendmail `compatibility' wrapper will rewrite From: or Message-ID:
headers, respectively. En passant, fix the bug that program_name was
not filled in before used when the user's ID had no PW entry, leading
to (null) or crash when printing the error message. Patch by Matthias
Andree.
* NextStep and OpenStep port patch from Eric Sunshine.

leak if we're hit by an alarm signal during connect(2).

* Fix configuration error in handling of long options.
* Thomas Moestl's patch to use querynames in UID files.

conflict with the SSL library.
- SECURITY FIX: Fixed a security hole that is exploitable if fetchmail is
running as root and the attacker can either subvert the mailserver or
redirect to a fake one using DNS spoofing. Bugtraq announcement to follow
soon. Thanks to Salvatore Sanfilippo <antirez@invece.org>.
- Eliminated second bounce on failed RCPT TO address.
- Always use fetchmail host's FQDN to identify the daemon when
sending bounce messages.
- Embarrassing bug of the month -- somehow, 'skip' wasn't being interpreted!
- Handle ! in RFC2821 Return-Path addresses properly.
- Better handling of BAD and NO responses to FETCH (thank Justin Guyett).
- Fixed *yet another- build error due to breakage in the i18n code.

(Debian bug #104484).
- Fixed bug in fetchmailconf plugin/plugout code (Debian bug #105987).
since version 5.8.10:
- Corrected Rob Braun's remote-build change, it broke the build with NLS.
- Found (and killed) a subtle SMTP protocol error that was probably lurking
behind a lot of the bug reports related to bounce mail, thanks to Quoc Luu.
(Only manifested when the MTA rejected mail due to a bad RCPT TO address.)
- Correction for backslash-handling patch in rfc822.c.
- Fix for Debian bug Bug#1038222: fetchmail conf fails to write file
after configuration; move .fetchmailrc to .fetchmailrc.bak before
overwriting.
- Discard Return-Path headers consisting of a single @.
- Make fetchmailconf dump plugin and plugout options properly.
- Rob Braun's changes for building fetchmail outside its source directory
- Don't depend on having snprintf available.
- Bug fix for envskip.
- ODMR finally seems to be working.
- Handle multiple backslashes within RFC822 address strings correctly.
- Don't exit on a failure to DNS-resolve a mailserver name, just
make it inactive. Exit only if all lookups fail.
- Restore code to deal with SMTP error responses at RCPT TO time, but
without issuing an RSET. This is intended to fix obscure bugs that
show up in recent Postfix releases and sendmail configurations that
delay antispam checks on the MAIL FROM line until RCPT TO time.
- Signal-processing fix for Debian bug #102711.
- More ODMR patches from Matt Armstrong.
Changes since version 5.8.8:

- The smtphost option has been split. It is no longer overloaded to set
the list of domains to be queried in ETRN and ODMR modes. Instead, use
the `fetchdomains' option.

* CRAM-MD5 authentication of IMAP and POP3 is working. Tested against
IMAP4rev1 2000.287 and v2000.70 POP3 gateway at neo.netnea.com.
* Full support for POP3 AUTH (RFC1734) with KERBEROS_IV, GSSAPI, OTP.
This code has been completely refactored. In the process, it is
possible I have broken GSSAPI, KERBEROS, and OPIE; this needs to be tested.
The old IMAP-LOGIN, IMAP-GSS, and IMAP-K4 protocols are gone; fetchmail
now uses these automatically when it detects the right capabilities.
To prevent having fetchmail look for a password, specify a "preauth"
option other than "password".
* Noted that Debian bugs #78963, #63064, #81312, #78796, #78363, #78149,

* Fix UIDL handling on skip entries.
* Add Don Beusee's `spambounce' option (default off).

* Added skip size reporting as suggested by Franck Pommereau.
* Don't terminate on failed DNS lookup of host, go to next entry.
* Danish localization support, courtesy of Byrial Jensen.
* Fix reference to freed message header block (thanks to Andrew Morton)
fetchmail-5.5.2 (Thu Sep 7 23:00:24 EDT 2000), 19243 lines:
* Horst Von Brand's security and specfile patches.
* Major changes to FAQ item T1.
* Minor correction to FAQ item K3 by Malte Kiesel.
* Added to FAQ R1, on enabling sendmail in RH 6.9.

* Javier Kohen's update for es.po.
* Jiri Pavlovsky's cs.po update.
* Added to FAQ item on K3 a recipe using the new plugin %h option.
* Fixed a nasty typo in FAQ item T1 -- the old version didn't generate
correct Delivered-To hacks. Thanks to Peter 'Rattacresh' Backes
<rtc@helen.PLASMA.Xg8.DE> for spotting this.
RESTRICTED= variables that were predicated on former U.S. export
regulations. Add CRYPTO=, as necessary, so it's still possible to
exclude all crypto packages from a build by setting MKCRYPTO=no
(but "lintpkgsrc -R" will no longer catch them).
Specifically,
- - All packages which set USE_SSL just lose their RESTRICTED
variable, since MKCRYPTO responds to USE_SSL directly.
- - realplayer7 and ns-flash keep their RESTRICTED, which is based
on license terms, but also gain the CRYPTO variable.
- - srp-client is now marked broken, since the distfile is evidently
no longer available. On this, we're no worse off than before.
[We haven't been mirroring the distfile, or testing the build!]
- - isakmpd gets CRYPTO for RESTRICTED, but remains broken.
- - crack loses all restrictions, as it does not evidently empower
a user to utilize strong encryption (working definition: ability
to encode a message that requires a secret key plus big number
arithmetic to decode).
fetchmail-5.4.5 (Mon Aug 7 03:25:23 EDT 2000), 19238 lines:
* Dave Zarzycki's patch to enhance plugins, adding %h and %p.
* Vitezslav Samel's patch to fix a Y2K bug in lsmgen.sh.

resolving FreeBSD Problem Report ports/19996.
* Added John Summerfield's pop2test to contrib.
* In the fetchmail RPM spec, stop compressing the man pages. Turns out
rpm-4.0 does a find(1) over the stuff to be installed and gzip(1)s the
manpages it finds. This gets messed up by the explicit symlink among
manpages in the spec file, which rpm redoes and gets all wrong.
* Added Antoine Beaupre's dropdelivered option.
fetchmail-5.4.3 (Sun Jul 2 14:24:28 EDT 2000), 19080 lines:
* Fixed Debian bug #63667, fetchmailconf: doesn't write .fetchmailrc properly.

domains without local users, such as a cyrus IMAP installation.
* Julian Haight added hostaddr reporting in the "Received: from" clause.
* NT material added to FAQ item O9.
* Commented out the socket-shutdown code that was causing mystery hangs under
Red Hat 6.2. We can live with a socket leak (assuming it comes back) nmore
easily than we can live with fetchmail getting wedged in place.
* Werner Almesberger <almesber@lrc.epfl.ch> sent minor bug fixes for BSMTP.

* Add a needed pclose(3) call in interface.c (thank Matthias Andree).
* In IMAP, use SEARCH UNSEEN instead of flag queries to count and identify
unseen messages (thanks to Alexis Lê-Quôc <alq666@hotmail.com>).
* Added contrib/domino, a workaround for the Domino attachment problem.
* Added contrib/toprocmail, which demonstrates how a plugin can
display selected mail headers.
* French internationalization update from Guy Brand.
* IMAP PREAUTH fix from Todd Sabin <tas@webspan.net>.

be a very bad idea.
fetchmail-5.2.6 (Sat Feb 5 00:01:53 EST 2000), 18517 lines:
* Close down sockets using shutdown(2) and discarding read data until we
get a TCP FIN. With any luck this will squash our socket leak.
* Open the lockfile with O_SYNC, so we know the file has been written
before close (sigh...NFS might still betray us...).
* Added Martijn Lievaart's sendmail hacks for multidrop to the contrib
directory.

Quick guide for configuring Kerberos support in a package Makefile:
- test for KERBEROS value and enable the appropriate version with
CONFIGURE_ARGS or other means and set USE_KERBEROS=yes

@ in usernames.
* Detect Intermail server's "wait a few minutes" message and cope.
* Patches for Heimdal implementation of GSSAPI from Leif Johansson
<leifj@matematik.su.se>. Somebody should test this against the MIT version.

accepting multiple writes; thanks to Kevin Turner <kevin.turner@oberlin.edu>.
Warning: CompuServe changed their POP3 system on 31 July 1999. In doing
so, they broke fetchmail's RPA support. Nobody has sent me either code that
works with the new system or a spec for it yet.

- New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for
the home page of the software if it has one.
- The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the
README.html files.
- pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for
HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same
section.
