   # SECURITY FIXES
   * for CVE-2012-3482:
     NTLM: fetchmail mistook an error message that the server sent in response to
     an NTLM request for protocol exchange, tried to decode it, and crashed while
     reading from a bad memory location.
     Also, with a carefully crafted NTLM challenge packet sent from the server, it
     would be possible that fetchmail conveyed confidential data not meant for the
     server through the NTLM response packet.
     Fix: Detect base64 decoding errors, validate the NTLM challenge, and abort
     NTLM authentication in case of error.
     See fetchmail-SA-2012-02.txt for further details.
     Reported by J. Porter Clark.
   * for CVE-2011-3389:
     SSL/TLS (wrapped and STARTTLS): fetchmail used to disable a countermeasure
     against a certain kind of attack against cipher block chaining initialization
     vectors (SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS).
     Whether this creates an exploitable situation, depends on the server and the
     negotiated ciphers.
     As a precaution, fetchmail 6.3.22 enables the countermeasure, by clearing
     SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS.
     NOTE that this can cause connections to certain non-conforming servers to
     fail, in which case you can set the environment variable
     FETCHMAIL_DISABLE_CBC_IV_COUNTERMEASURE to any non-empty value when starting
     fetchmail to re-instate the compatibility option at the expense of security.
     Reported by Apple Product Security.

<http://www.openssl.org/~bodo/tls-cbc.txt>.
     See fetchmail-SA-2012-01.txt for further details.

   # BUG FIX
   * The Server certificate: message in verbose mode now appears on stdout like the
     remainder of the output. Reported by Henry Jensen, to fix Debian Bug #639807.
   * The GSSAPI-related autoconf code now matches gssapi.c better, and uses
     a different check to look for GSS_C_NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE.
     This fixes the GSSAPI-enabled build on NetBSD 6 Beta.

   # CHANGES
   * On systems where SSLv2_client_method isn't defined in OpenSSL (such as
     newer Debian, and Ubuntu starting with 11.10 oneiric ocelot), don't
     reference it (to fix the build) and if configured, print a run-time error
     that the OS does not support SSLv2. Fixes Debian Bug #622054,
     but note that that bug report has a more thorough patch that does away with
     SSLv2 altogether.
   * The security and errata notices fetchmail-{EN,SA}-20??-??.txt are now
     under the more relaxed CC BY-ND 3.0 license (the noncommercial clause
     was dropped). The Creative Commons address was updated.
   * The Python-related Makefile.am parts were simplified to avoid an automake
     1.11.X bug around noinst_PYTHON, Automake Bug #10995.
   * Configuring fetchmail without SSL now triggers a configure warning,
     and asks the user to consider running configure --with-ssl.

   # WORKAROUNDS
   * Some servers, notably Zimbra, return A1234 987 FETCH () in response to
     a header request, in the face of message corruption.  fetchmail now treats
     these as temporary errors. Report and Patch by Mikulas Patocka, Red Hat.
   * Some servers, notably Microsoft Exchange, return "A0009 OK FETCH \ 
completed."
     without any header in response to a header request for meeting reminder
     messages (with a "meeting.ics" attachment). fetchmail now treats \ 
these as
     transient errors.  Report by John Connett, Patch by Sunil Shetye.
