I actually checked the documentation on Roland's site before replying.  There
is no mention of this feature anywhere.

Surprise, surprise - Roland can't be bothered to do the un-sexy parts of
publishing open-source software.  Writing documentation takes more time than
writing the code.

Roland, if you're reading this, please go fuck yourself with a rusty chainsaw.
You're still causing me (and the rest of the getmail community) problems with
your hostile fork and theft of my project name.
