The author of getmail acknowledges the problem and will have it fixed in 4.5.2. Included is an entry in ports/UPDATING regarding the issue. I'm not sure what the protocol/procedure for updating the affected port (i.e.: mark the port as BROKEN, IGNORED or something else). >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: --- getmail-4.5.1_UPDATING.diff begins here --- --- UPDATING.orig Mon Feb 6 16:19:07 2006 +++ UPDATING Mon Feb 6 16:21:59 2006 @@ -6,6 +6,14 @@ time you update your ports collection, before attempting any port upgrades. +20060606: + AFFECTS: users of mail/getmail + AUTHOR: question+fbsdports@closedsrc.org + + The IMAP functionaility in getmail-4.5.1 is currently broken and will be + fixed by the software's author in 4.5.2.
