Log message:
Update "fetchmail" and "fetchmailconf" package to version 6.3.21.
Changes since version 6.3.20:
- The IMAP client no longer inserts NUL bytes into the last line of a
  message when it is not closed with a LF or CRLF sequence. Reported
  by Antoine Levitt.  As a side effect of the fix, and in order to
  avoid a full rewrite, fetchmail will now CRLF-terminate the last
  line fetched through IMAP, even if it is originally not terminated
  by LF or CRLF. This bears no relevance if your messages end up in
  mbox, but adds line termination for storages (like Maildir) that do
  not require that the last line be LF- or CRLF-terminated.

Update fetchmail to 6.3.20.
Requested by PR#45030.

fetchmail-6.3.20 (released 2011-06-06, 26005 LoC):

# SECURITY BUG FIXES
* CVE-2011-1947:
  STARTTLS: Fetchmail runs the IMAP STARTTLS or POP3 STLS negotiation with the
  set timeout (default five minutes) now. This was reported missing, with
  observed fetchmail freezes beyond a week, by Thomas Jarosch.
     SSL-wrapped connections were unaffected by this timeout, so users of older
  versions can force ssl-wrapped connections -- if supported by the server --
  with the --ssl command line or ssl rcfile option.
  See fetchmail-SA-2011-01.txt for further details.

# BUG FIXES
* IMAP: Do not search for UNSEEN messages in ranges. Usually, there are very few
  new messages and most of the range searches result in nothing. Instead, split
  the long response to make the IMAP driver think that there are multiple lines
  of response. (Sunil Shetye)
* Do not print "skipping message" for old messages even in verbose mode. If
  there are too many old messages, the logs just get filled without any real
  activity. (Sunil Shetye) (suggested by Yunfan Jiang)
* Build: fetchmail now always uses its own MD5 implementation rather than trying
  to find a system library with matched header. The library and header variants
  found on systems are too diverse, and the code size saving is not worth any
  more wasted user or programmer time.

# CHANGES
* Call strlen() only once when removing CRLF from a line. (Sunil Shetye)
* fetchmail sets Internet domain sockets to "keepalive" mode now. Note that
  there is no portable way to configure actual timeouts for this mode, and some
  systems only support a system-wide timeout setting. fetchmail does not
  attempt to tune the time spans of keepalive mode.

# KNOWN BUGS AND WORKAROUNDS
  (this section floats upwards through the NEWS file so it stays with the
  current release information - however, it was stuck with 6.3.8 for a while)
* fetchmail does not handle messages without Message-ID header well
  (See sourceforge.net bug #780933)
* BSMTP is mostly untested and errors can cause corrupt output.
* Sun Workshop 6 (SPARC) is known to miscompile the configuration file lexer in
  64-bit mode.  Either compile 32-bit code or use GCC to compile 64-bit
  fetchmail.  Note that fetchmail doesn't take advantage of 64-bit code,
  so compiling 32-bit SPARC code should not cause any difficulties.
* fetchmail does not track pending deletes over 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 circumstances 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.

fetchmail-6.3.19 (released 2010-12-10, 25945 LoC):

# ERRATUM NOTICE ISSUED
* fetchmail 6.3.18 contains several bug fixes that were considered sufficiently
  grave to warrant the issue of an erratum notice, fetchmail-EN-2010-03.txt.

# BUG FIXES
* When specifying multiple local multidrop lists, do not lose wildcard flag.
  (Affects "user foo is bar baz * is joe here")
* In multidrop configurations, an asterisk can now appear anywhere in the list
  of local users, not just at the end.
* In multidrop mode, header parsing is now more verbose in -vv mode, so that it
  becomes possible to see which header is used.
* Make --antispam work from command line (these used to work in rcfiles).
  Reported by Kees Bakker, BerliOS Bug #17599. (Sunil Shetye)
* Smoke test XHTML 1.1 validation, and if it fails, skip validating HTML
  documents.  Skip validating Mailbox-Names-UTF7.html. Several systems have
  broken XHTML 1.1 DTD installations that jeopardize the build.
  Reported by Mihail Nechkin against FreeBSD port.
  Workaround for 6.3.18: build in a separate directory, i. e:
  mkdir build && cd build && ../configure --options-go-here
* Send a NOOP only after a failed STARTTLS in IMAP. (Sunil Shetye)
* Demote GSSAPI verbose/debug syslog to INFO severity. Requested by Carlos E. R.
  and Derek Simkowiak via the fetchmail-users@ mailing list.
* Do STARTTLS/STLS negotiation in IMAP/POP3 if it is mandatory even if the
  server capabilities do not show support for upgradation to TLS.
  To use this, configure --sslproto tls1. (Sunil Shetye)
* IMAP: Understand empty strings as FETCH response, seen on Yahoo. Reported by
  Yasin Malli to fetchmail-users@ 2010-12-10.
  Note that fetchmail continues to expect literals as FETCH response for now.

# DOCUMENTATION
* The manual page now links to IANA for GSSAPI service names.

fetchmail-6.3.18 (released 2010-10-09, 25936 LoC):

# SECURITY IMPROVEMENTS TO DEFANG X.509 CERTIFICATE ABUSE
* Fetchmail now only accepts wildcard certificate common names and subject
  alternative names if they start with "*.". Previous versions would accept
  wildcards even if no period followed immediately.
* Fetchmail now disallows wildcards in certificates to match domain literals
  (such as 10.9.8.7), or wildcards in domain literals ("*.168.23.23").
  The test is overly picky and triggers if the pattern (after skipping the
  initial wildcard "*") or domain consists solely of digits and dots, \ 
and thus
  matches more than needed.
* Fetchmail now disallows wildcarding top-level domains.

# CRITICAL BUG FIXES AND REGRESSION FIXES
* Fetchmail 6.3.15, 6.3.16, and 6.3.17 would pick up libmd5 to obtain MD5*
  functions, as an effect of an undocumented Solaris MD5 fix.
  This caused all MD5-related functions to malfunction if, for instance,
  libmd5.so was installed on other operating systems as part of libwww on
  machines where long isn't 32-bits, i. e. usually on 64-bit computers.
  Fixes Gentoo Bug #319283, reported, including libwww hint, by Karl Hakimian.
  Side effect: fetchmail will now use -lmd on Solaris rather than -lmd5.
* Fetchmail 6.3.17 warned about insecure SSL/TLS connections even if a matching
  --sslfingerprint was specified. This is an omission from an SSL usability
  change made in 6.3.17.
  Fixes Debian Bug#580796 reported by Roland Stigge.
* Fetchmail will now apply timeouts to the authentication stage.
  This stage encompasses STARTTLS/STLS negotiation in IMAP/POP3.
  Reported missing by Thomas Jarosch.
* Fetchmail now cancels GSSAPI authentication properly when encountering GSS
  errors, such as no or unsuitable credentials.
  It now sends an asterisk on a line by its own, as required in SASL.
    This fixes protocol synchronization issues that cause Authentication
  failures, often observed with kerberized MS Exchange servers.
  Fixes Debian Bug #568455 reported by Patrick Rynhart, and Alan Murrell, to the
  fetchmail-users list. Fix verified by Thomas Voigtmann and Patrick Rynhart.

# BUG FIXES
* Fetchmail will no longer print connection attempts and errors for one host
  in "silent" and "normal" logging modes, unless all \ 
connections fail. This
  should reduce irritation around refused-connection logging if services are
  only on an IPv4 socket if the host also supports IPv6. Often observed as
  connections refused to ::1/25 when the subsequent connection to 127.0.0.1/25
  then - silently - succeeds.  Fetchmail, unless in verbose mode, will collect
  all connect errors and only report them if all of them fail.
* Fetchmail will not try GSSAPI authentication automatically, unless it has GSS
  credentials. However, if GSSAPI authentication is requested explicitly,
  fetchmail will always try it.
* Fetchmail now parses response to "FETCH n:m RFC822.SIZE" and \ 
"FETCH n
  RFC822.HEADER" in a more flexible manner. (Sunil Shetye)
* The manual page clearly states that --principal is for Kerberos 4 only, not
  for Kerberos 5 or GSSAPI. Found by Thomas Voigtmann.

# CHANGES
* When encountering incorrect headers, fetchmail will refer to the bad-header
  option in the manpage.
  Fixes BerliOS Bug #17272, change suggested by Björn Voigt.
* Fetchmail now decodes and reports GSSAPI status codes upon errors.
* Fetchmail now autoprobes NTLM also for POP3.
* The Fetchmail FAQ has a new item #R15 on authentication failures.

# INTERNAL CHANGES
* The common NTLM authentication code was factored out from pop3.c and imap.c.

fetchmail-6.3.17 (released 2010-05-06, 25767 LoC):

# SECURITY FIX
* CVE-2010-1167: Fetchmail before release 6.3.17 did not properly sanitize
  external input (mail headers and UID). When a multi-character locale (such as

# FEATURES
* Fetchmail now supports a --sslcertfile <file> option to specify a \ 
"CA bundle"
  file (a file that contains trusted CA certificates). Since these bundled CA
  files do not require c_rehash to be run, they are easier to use and immune to
  OpenSSL library updates that affect the hash function.
* Fetchmail now supports a FETCHMAIL_INCLUDE_DEFAULT_X509_CA_CERTS
  environment variable to force loading the default SSL CA certificate
  locations even if --sslcertfile or --sslcertpath is used.
  If neither option is in effect, fetchmail loads the default locations.

# REGRESSION FIX
* Fix string handling in rcfile scanner, which caused fetchmail to misparse a
  run control file in certain circumstances.  Fixes BerliOS bug #14257.
  Patch by Michael Banack.  This fixes a regression introduced before 6.3.0.

# BUG FIXES
* Plug memory leak when using a "defaults" entry in the run control file.
* Do not print SSL certificate mismatches unless verbose or --sslcertck is
  enabled.
* Do not lose "set invisible" in fetchmailconf. (Michael Barnack)

# CHANGES
* Usability: SSL certificate chains are fully printed in -v -v mode, and there
  are now helpful pointers to --sslcertpath and c_rehash for "unable to get
  local issuer certificate" and self-signed certificates -- these usually hint
  to missing root signing CAs in the certs directory.
* Several fixes for compiler (GCC, Intel C++, CLang) and autotools warnings
* Memory allocation failures will now cause abnormal program abort (SIGABRT),
  no longer an exit with unspecified code.

# DOCUMENTATION
* Fix table of global option to read "set softbounce" where there used \ 
to be a
  2nd copy of "set spambounce".  Patch by Michael Banack, BerliOS Bug \ 
#17067.
* In the --sslcertpath description, mention that OpenSSL upgrade (and a 0.9.X
  to 1.0.0 upgrade in particular) may require running c_rehash.

fetchmail-6.3.16 (released 2010-04-06, 25574 LoC):

# BUG FIX
* Fix --interface option, broken in 6.3.15. Reported by Vladmimir Stavrinov.
  Fixes Debian Bug #576717.

# CHANGE
* Call OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(). This is needed to support non-mandatory
  and non-standard algorithms in certificates.
  Sjoerd Simons, to fix Debian Bug #576430.
  OpenSSL 0.9.8* does not load - for instance - the SHA256 digest by default.
  Reported as OpenSSL RT#2224.

fetchmail-6.3.15 (released 2010-03-28, 25572 LoC):

# FEATURE
* Fetchmail now supports a bad-header command line or rcfile option that takes
  exactly one argument, accept or reject (default).  This specifies how messages
  with bad headers retrieved from the current server are to be treated.

# BUG FIXES
* In the rcfile, recognize "local" as abbreviation for \ 
"localdomains", as
  documented. The short form has not ever worked since this feature was added in
  January 1997. Reported by Fr\xc3<A9>d\xc3<A9>ric Marchal.
* Do not close stdout when using mda and "bsmtp -" at the same time.
* Log operating system errors when BSMTP writes fail.
* Fix verbose mode progress formatting regression from 6.3.10; SMTP trace lines
  were no longer on a line of their own. Reported by Melchior Franz.
* Check seteuid() return value and abort running MDA if switch fails.
* Set global flags in a consistent manner. Make --nosoftbounce and
  --nobounce work from command line (these used to work in rcfiles).
  Reported and fix confirmed working by N.J. Mann. (Sunil Shetye)
* Properly import h_errno declarations, even on systems where h_errno isn't a
  macro. (Adds ./configure check, fixes Cygwin dllimport warnings.)

# CHANGES
* The repository has been converted and moved from the Subversion (SVN) format
  kindly hosted by Graham Wilson over the past years to Git format hosted on
  Gitorious.org.  My deepest thanks to Graham Wilson for this service that
  kept us going when BerliOS's Subversion service was faulty in its early days.
* This opportunity was used to convert BRANCH_6-2 and BRANCH_1-9-9 to
  GnuPG-signed tags, as a sign that these are now closed.
* The outdated SVN trunk is now called "oldtrunk" in Git just to save \ 
the work
  for future reference. All development in the past few years was on BRANCH_6-3.
* master was branched from BRANCH_6-3.  BRANCH_6-3 is now obsolete (and in fact
  was also converted to a tag to record where the conversion from SVN to Git
  took place).
* "make check" now skips HTML validation if xmllint or XHTML DTD are \ 
missing.

# DOCUMENTATION
* Web site and documentation were adjusted to reflect the SVN->Git move.
* The fetchmail manual page is now much clearer on the user id switching
  (seteuid) when using --mda while running as the super user.

Update to 6.3.14:

fetchmail 6.3.14 (released 2010-02-05, 25487 LoC):

# SECURITY FIXES
* SSL/TLS certificate information is now also reported properly on computers
  that consider the "char" type signed. Fixes malloc() buffer overrun.
  Workaround for older versions: do not use verbose mode.
  See fetchmail-SA-2010-01.txt for details, including a minimal patch.

# BUG FIXES
* The IMAP client no longer skips messages from several IMAP servers including
  Dovecot if fetchmail's "idle" is in use.  Causes were that fetchmail (a)
  ignored some untagged responses when it should not (b) relied on EXISTS
  messages in response to EXPUNGE, which aren't mandated by RFC-3501 (the IMAP
  standard) and aren't sent by Dovecot either.
    Fix by Sunil Shetye (the fix also consolidates IMAP response handling,
  improving overall robustness of the IMAP client), bug report and testing by
  Matt Doran, with further hints from Timo Sirainen.
* The SMTP client now recovers from errors (such as servers dropping the
  connection after errors) when sending an RSET command.
    Fix by Sunil Shetye. Report by James Moe.
* The IMAP client now uses "SEARCH UNSEEN" rather than "SEARCH \ 
UNSEEN NOT
  DELETED" again on IMAP2, to fix a regression in fetchmail 6.2.5 reported by
  Will Stringer in June 2004. (Sunil Shetye)
* The IMAP client now uses "SEARCH UNSEEN UNDELETED" on IMAP4 and IMAP4r1
  servers (Sunil Shetye).
* Workaround: The IMAP client now falls back to "FETCH n:m FLAGS" if \ 
the server
  does not support "SEARCH". (Sunil Shetye)
* The IMAP client now requests message numbers in batches of 1,000 to avoid
  problems if there are more than 1860 unseen messages. (Sunil Shetye)
    Note that this wasn't security relevant because fetchmail would only read up
  to the maximum buffer size and leave the remainder of the string unread, going
  out of synch afterwards.
* Stricter validation of IMAP responses containing byte or message counts.

# CHANGES
* Only include gssapi.h if we're not including gssapi/gssapi.h, to fix a FreeBSD
  compiler warning about gssapi.h being obsolete.

# DOCUMENTATION
* The README.SSL document was revised for grammar, spelling, and clarity.

fetchmail 6.3.13 (released 2009-10-30, 25333 LoC):

# REGRESSION FIXES
* The multiline SMTP error fix in release 6.3.12 caused fetchmail to lose
  message codes 400..599 and treat all of these as temporary error. This would
  cause messages to be left on the server even if softbounce was turned off.
  Reported by Thomas Jarosch.

fetchmail 6.3.12 (released 2009-10-05):

# REGRESSION FIXES
* The CVS-2009-2666 fix in fetchmail release 6.3.11 caused a free() of
  unallocated memory on SSL connections, which caused crashes or program aborts
  on some systems (depending on how initialization and free() of unallocated
  memory is handled in compiler and libc).
  Workaround for older versions: run in verbose mode.
  Patch courtesy of Thomas Heinz, fixes Gentoo Bug #280760.
  This regression affected only the 6.3.11 release, but not the patch that was
  part of the security announcement fetchmail-SA-2009-01.

# BUG FIXES
* Fix error reporting for GSSAPI on Heimdal (h5l) Kerberos.
* Look for MD5_Init in libcrypto rather than libssl, fixes Gentoo Kerberos
  builds; fixes upstream parts of Gentoo Bugs #231400 and #185652, and fixes
  BerliOS Bug #16134.
* Report multiline SMTP errors properly, reported by Earl Chew; fixes Debian Bug
  #529899, reported by Akihiro Terasaki.
  Note: This fix introduced a regression, fixed in 6.3.13.
* Replace control characters in SMTP replies by '?'.
* Fetchmailconf: Fix descriptions for smtpaddress and smtpname options;
  smtpaddress is for RCPT TO, not MAIL FROM. Found by Gerard Seibert.

...as well as translation updates in all three releases.
