+# CRITICAL BUG FIX
+* 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.
