Changes since 5.6.0:
fetchmail-5.7.0 (Thu Mar 1 18:00:08 EST 2001), 20131 lines:
* Updated Danish translation from Byrial Jensen.
* Fixed bug in NTLM support. Separately, "auth ntlm" now works.
* Imail server and vircom NTLM account added to test list.
* Don't require Tkinter to read --configdump output.
fetchmail-5.6.8 (Thu Feb 22 02:57:31 EST 2001), 20110 lines:
* `preauth' option changed back to `auth'
* IMAP code now bails out if the server forces the mailbox read-only.
* Fixed a core dump in Dave Zarzycki's new plugin code.
* POP3 latency optimization: only do CAPA and set authentication capabilities
from it once at start of run.
fetchmail-5.6.7 (Mon Feb 19 12:31:03 EST 2001), 20082 lines:
* Fixed brown-paper-bag password bug (only showed up if it was necessary
to prompt for a password). This fixes Debian bug #86350: Fetchmail doesn't
ask for password.
* In POP3, query for AUTH methods a la RFC2449.
fetchmail-5.6.6 (Thu Feb 15 20:43:47 EST 2001), 20083 lines:
* Fixed locale setting; this should make i18n actually work.
* Resolved Debian bug #85938: fetchmail asks for a password when using ETRN.
* Resolved Debian bugs #85853 and #86047. POP3: Don't issue AUTH between
USER and PASS, some servers choke on this.
* Resolved Debian bug #85772 re Kerberos compilation.
* Resolved Debian bug #85961: Wrong error message when local connection fails.
* Serious pre-release regression testing begins. This version tested
against 18 different POP3 and IMAP servers.
fetchmail-5.6.5 (Mon Feb 12 04:33:39 EST 2001), 20062 lines:
* 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,
#68627, #67559, #63308, #63088, #71428 are fixed.
* Resolved Debian bug #65505: fetchmail now returns a nonzero exit status
when interrupted before a successful fetch.
* configure --ssl works correctly again.
fetchmail-5.6.4 (Sun Feb 11 00:43:14 EST 2001), 20085 lines:

* Danny O'Brien's patch allowing preauth and idle to work together.
* Fixed a bug in configure.in that was resulting in KERBEROS_IV being
set when it should not have been (several reports).
* FAQ change: mailing lists have moved to MailMan.
* Deal with brain-dead netmind mail missing the RFC822 delimiter line.
* ODMR (RFC 2645) support -- untested and probably buggy!
fetchmail-5.6.2 (Fri Jan 5 16:45:47 EST 2001), 19744 lines:
* Dave Bodenstab's fix for the lockfile re-exec problem.
* Fixes for `principal' handling in fetchmailconf.

* Horst Klokow's patch to make interface check the remote IP address.
* Roger Luethi's patch to write the UIDL file when you hit a fetchlimit.

user will get a notification).
* Samuel Leo's patch to add LMTP capability to the smtphost option.
* Fix UIDL handling on skip entries.
* Add Don Beusee's `spambounce' option (default off).

* Fall back on the computed queryname if we need the DNS name of a a host
and can't get it. Resolves Debian bug #69199.
* Andrej Borsenkow's fix for configuration with new SOCKS.
* Pavel Roskin's fix to build the RPM without libcrypto (Red Hat changed
the library name to libk5crypto in 6.2).
* Peter Backes's sm-hybrid patch added to contrib; more FAQ item T1 changes.
* Emiliano's patch to make dropdelivered and envelope interact properly.
* In fetchmailconf, always reset the port number when changing protocols.
* Patrick Bihan-Faou's changes to use sysctl() for interface checking
so fetchmail doesn't have to be suid kmem.
(if you have IPv4-only sendmail on dual stack node, 5.3.0 may fail to connect).

a Return-Path.
* Fix the attempted fix for Joop Susan's ENOTCONN bug.
* Added FAQ material on a Microsoft Exchange bug, on forwarding to
a different host than the one fetchmail runs on, and on using
ssh for a secure passwordless connection. Removed the FAQ entry
on popclient.
* Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino <itojun@iijlab.net> sent a fix for IPv6.
* Fix Red Hat 6.2beta bug 9982: fetchmailconf now automatically pups up
an edit panel whenever a new user or site is created.
* Fix Red Hat 6.2beta bug 9987: Deal gracefully with the possibility that
we might be running as a subprocess with stdin not attached to a tty,
and thus unable to query for a password.
* Resolved all current Debian bugs classed `important'; #43139, #44744, #44760,
#44774, #43140, #50990.
* Resolved Debian ordinary bugs #17769, #34383, #38303, #39732, #51674,
