http://www.inner.net/pub/ipv6/ states, as of 2005-07-03: "/pub/ipv6
Our IPv6 software is now long defunct. Please find a more modern source."
I haven't been able to find a more modern source. Matthias Andree
+* Operating systems that do not conform to the Single Unix Specification v2
+ (1997) or v3 (2001, aka IEEE Std 1003.1-2001) are no longer supported. They
+ may continue to work and non-intrusive patches to support them may be
+ accepted. Matthias Andree

+# OBSOLETION WARNINGS
+* The MX and host alias lookups that fetchmail performs in multidrop mode are
+ obsolete, deprecated and may be removed from a future fetchmail version
+ without further notice. Their support for IPv6 (including IPv6-mapped IPv4)
+ is unspecified. Matthias Andree
# OTHER USER-VISIBLE CHANGES
* Sunil Shetye's fix to force fetchsizelimit to 1 for APOP and RPOP. (ESR)
