fetchmail-4.5.3 (Mon Jul 20 15:02:08 EDT 1998), 15151 lines:
* Minor fixes to the GSSAPI code. Seems to work with stock UW IMAP now.
* Fetchmail running as root now sends misaddressed multidrop mail to
‘postmaster’, not root. Added ‘postmaster’ option to allow override.
* DNS names of target servers are now canonicalized only once, at start
of run, and then only if they’ll actually be needed later for multidrop
checking or fetching Kerberos tickets. This change eliminates many
gethostbyname calls.
* It’s now possible to specify multiple spam-block responses as a list.
* Download-progress dots are no longer generated when syslog is enabled.
* 1.1 version of fetchmailconf.
Note: the DNS-usage change might conceivably break your configuration
if (a) you’re using ‘no dns’ and multidrop and (b) you’re not
specifying either a ‘via’ option or pollname that is the host’s
canonical name. The thing to watch for will be an illegal domain name
error from your listener. If this happens, just add a ‘via’ option with
the cononical FQDN of the host as argument.

* Discard Unix From_ lines in headers (copes with Debian bug report #23808).
* Tell fetchmailconf not to care if the attempt to create an icon window fails.
* All fetchmailconf windows now iconify with an image.
* obituary@freshmeat’s enhancements to hook fetchmail into the Red Hat
control panel.
* Even if RPA is enabled, it won’t be done unless your remotename ends in
‘@compuserve.com’ as CompuServe requires. Thus CompuServe users may now
choose ordinary authentication at runtime.

One-line fix for an embarrassing bug in the ‘gold’ version; command-line
