Here are the release notes:

* Security fix: don't trust the message count passed back by the server.

fetchmail-5.9.9 (Sat Mar  9 08:54:28 EST 2002), 21508 lines:

* Renamed misnamed tr.po and da.po files
* Jakub Ulanowski's patch to fix SSL fingerprint handling.
* Matt Kraai's patch for supporting STLS over POP3.
* French translation updated.
* Debian fixes merged.
* Added maildrop (MDA shipped with courier) as fallback after procmail
  and sendmail (thanks to Alexander Lazic <[email protected]>).
* ESMTP AUTH support from Wojciech Polak <[email protected]>.

There are 481 people on fetchmail-friends and 646 on fetchmail-announce.

Two releases in quick succession, because of the security issue.  There was
a theoretically exploitable hole that would have required a hostile server
or DNS spoofing attack.

By popular demand, diffs from the previous release have been omitted.

"Are we to understand," asked the judge, "that you hold your own interests
above the interests of the public?"

"I hold that such a question can never arise except in a society of cannibals."
