Greetings,

The 6.4.7 release of fetchmail is now available at the usual locations,
including <https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fetchmail/branch_6.4/>.

=3D=3D NOTE =3D=3D
I intend this to be the last 6.4.x version with functional changes, and new
6.4.x are not planned, except if regressions, critical fixes, or new
translations or important documentation fixes appear and 6.5.0 is too far o=
ut.

Fetchmail 6.4.x is the last branch that will tolerate OpenSSL 1.0.2 and C89
compilers, and support Python 2.7.x (for newer x) for fetchmailconf.

=3D=3D EXCURSION ---------
The direction for the near future is to do some bugfixing and possibly minor
features on the Git branch 'legacy_6x', for now called 6.5.0.dev*, it is a
branch that will require newer operating systems, toolchains, library, for
instance, OpenSSL 1.1.1 with TLSv1.3 support, C99 (for long long support) or
possibly C11 (TBD) and possibly newer IEEE Std 1003.1 compliance.
=3D=3D END EXCURSION -----


The source archive is available in two compressed formats at:
<https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fetchmail/branch_6.4/fetchmail-6=
=2E4.7.tar.xz>
<https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fetchmail/branch_6.4/fetchmail-6=
=2E4.7.tar.lz>

Detached GnuPG signatures for the respective tarballs are at:
<https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fetchmail/branch_6.4/fetchmail-6=
=2E4.7.tar.lz.asc>
<https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/fetchmail/branch_6.4/fetchmail-6=
=2E4.7.tar.xz.asc>

SHA256 hash values:
SHA256(fetchmail-6.4.7.tar.lz)=3D d6e9918240f2ddc07aa91a478f8a6359279d41de2=

Here are the release notes:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------=
-----
fetchmail-6.4.7 (released 2020-06-14, 27596 LoC):

## TRANSLATION UPDATE, with thanks to the translator:
* sv:    G=F6ran Uddeborg [Swedish]

# KNOWN BUGS AND WORKAROUNDS
  (This section floats upwards through the NEWS file so it stays with the
  current release information)
* Fetchmail does not handle messages without Message-ID header well
  (See sourceforge.net bug #780933)
* Fetchmail currently uses 31-bit signed integers in several places
  where unsigned and/or wider types should have been used, for instance,
  for mailbox sizes, and misreports sizes of 2 GibiB and beyond.=20
  Fixing this requires C89 compatibility to be relinquished.
* BSMTP is mostly untested and errors can cause corrupt output.
* Fetchmail does not track pending deletes across crashes.
* The command line interface is sometimes a bit stubborn, for instance,
  fetchmail -s doesn't work with a daemon running.
* Linux systems may return duplicates of an IP address in some circumstance=
s if
  no or no global IPv6 addresses are configured.
  (No workaround. Ubuntu Bug#582585, Novell Bug#606980.)
* Kerberos 5 may be broken, particularly on Heimdal, and provide bogus error
  messages. This will not be fixed, because the maintainer has no Kerberos 5
  server to test against. Use GSSAPI.

Happy fetches,
Matthias
