Greetings,

getmail version 5.0 has been released and is available for download
at the usual place:
http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/

Changes since the previous version include:

Version 5.0
15 July 2017
    -new release numbering scheme; previous version numbers were just getting
    too high.
    -catch and ignore/exit cleanly after reset connection in IMAP IDLE mode.
    Thanks:  Stephan Schulz.
    -allow specifying an expected SSL certificate hostname, for when the
    server's certificate does not match the domain name used to connect to
    it.  Thanks:  "Andre".
    -fix error message not actually giving the header field name incorrectly
    specified as containing the envelope recipient address.  Thanks:  Hardy 
    Braunsdorf.
    -add new password_command configuration parameter for retrievers, allowing
    getmail to retrieve the account password from any arbitrary external 
    command.  Suggestion:  "ng0".
    

Charles
