>Description:

Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 14:53:21 -0500 (EST)
From: "Eric S. Raymond" <esr@snark.thyrsus.com>
Organization: Eric Conspiracy Secret Labs
To: fetchmail-friends@snark.thyrsus.com
Subject: fetchmail-3.4 is out

This release fixes fetchmail's first serious fatal error, the core dump that
several people reported.

fetchmail-3.4 (Wed Feb 12 13:57:00 EST 1997)

features --

* Support for ESMTP ETRN extension.

* It is now possible to turn off option flags in individual server entries
  that had been turned on in a `defaults' entry.

bugs --

* The bug that displayed incorrect sizes for POP3 connections has been fixed.

* Upped the %a option in the lexer file so SunOS 4.1.3 lex won't choke with a
  "Too Many Transitions" error.

* Size-ticker dots are now disabled when verbose is on.  This should eliminate
  some alarming but harmless "(message incomplete)" messages from the
  error-logging machinery.

* A core dump in save_str_pair() that only showed up on some systems has
  been fixed.

There are 223 people on the fetchmail-friends list.

You can easily fetch the latest version of fetchmail via FTP from the
following FTP directory:

Or you can get it from Eric's home page:

Just chase the link to Eric's Freeware Collection.  Besides fetchmail, it
includes a tasty selection of Web authoring tools, programmer's aids,
graphics libraries, compilers for bizarre languages, games, and 
miscellaneous interesting hacks.  Enjoy!
