-<h1>The fetchmail Home Page</h1>
-</center>
-
-<p><b>Note: if you are a stranded fetchmail.com user, we're sorry but
-we have nothing to do with that site and cannot help you.  It's just an
-unfortunate coincidence of names.</b></p>
-
-<h1>What fetchmail does:</h1>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is a full-featured, robust, well-documented
-remote-mail retrieval and forwarding utility intended to be used over
-on-demand TCP/IP links (such as SLIP or PPP connections). It supports
-every remote-mail protocol now in use on the Internet: POP2, POP3,
-RPOP, APOP, KPOP, all flavors of <a
-href="http://www.imap.org">IMAP</a>, ETRN, and ODMR. It can even
-support IPv6 and IPSEC.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail retrieves mail from remote mail servers and forwards it via
-SMTP, so it can then be read by normal mail user agents such as <a
-href="http://www.mutt.org/">mutt</a>, elm(1) or BSD Mail.
-It allows all your system MTA's filtering, forwarding, and aliasing
-facilities to work just as they would on normal mail.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail offers better security than any other Unix remote-mail
-client.  It supports APOP, KPOP, OTP, Compuserve RPA, Microsoft NTLM,
-and IMAP RFC1731 encrypted authentication methods including CRAM-MD5
-to avoid sending passwords en clair. It can be configured to support
-end-to-end encryption via tunneling with <a
-href="http://www.openssh.com/">ssh, the Secure Shell</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail can be used as a POP/IMAP-to-SMTP gateway for an entire DNS
-domain, collecting mail from a single drop box on an ISP and
-SMTP-forwarding it based on header addresses. (We don't really
-recommend this, though, as it may lose important envelope-header
-information.  ETRN or a UUCP connection is better.)</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail can be started automatically and silently as a system daemon
-at boot time.  When running in this mode with a short poll interval,
-it is pretty hard for anyone to tell that the incoming mail link is
-not a full-time "push" connection.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is easy to configure.  You can edit its dotfile directly, or
-use the interactive GUI configurator (fetchmailconf) supplied with the
-fetchmail distribution.  It is also directly supported in linuxconf
-versions 1.16r8 and later.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is fast and lightweight.  It packs all its standard
-features (POP3, IMAP, and ETRN support) in ${fetchmailsize}K of core on a
-Pentium under Linux.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is <a href="http://www.opensource.org">open-source</a>
-software.  The openness of the sources is your strongest possible
-assurance of quality and reliability.</p>

-
-<h1>How to get fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>You can get any of the following leading-edge resources here:</p>
-<ul>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$version.tar.gz">
-	Gzipped source archive of fetchmail $version</a>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$version-1.i386.rpm">
-	Intel binary RPM of fetchmail $version (uses $glibc)</a>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$version-1.src.rpm">
-	Source RPM of fetchmail $version</a>
-</ul>
-
-<p>MD5 <a href="checksums">checksums</a> are available for these files; the
-checksum file is cryptographically signed and can be verified with the
-command:</p>
-
-<pre>
-gpg --verify checksums
-</pre>
-
-EOF
-
-if [ $version != $goldvers ]
-then
-    cat >>index.html <<EOF
-
-<p>Or you can get the last \`gold' version, $goldname:</p>
-<ul>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$goldvers.tar.gz">
-	Gzipped source archive of fetchmail $goldname</a>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$goldvers-1.i386.rpm">
-	Intel binary RPM of fetchmail $goldname (uses glibc)</a>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$goldvers-1.alpha.rpm">
-	Alpha binary RPM of fetchmail $goldname (uses glibc)</a>
-<li> <a href="fetchmail-$goldvers-1.src.rpm">
-	Source RPM of fetchmail $goldname</a>
-</ul>
-
-<p>The <a href="fetchmail-$goldvers.tar.gz.asc">detached GPG
-signature</a> for the binary tarball can be used to check it for
-correctness, with the command</p>
-
-<pre>
-gpg --verify fetchmail-$goldvers.tar.gz.asc fetchmail-$goldvers.tar.gz
-</pre>
-
-<p>For differences between the leading-edge $version and gold $goldname versions,
-see the distribution <a href="NEWS">NEWS</a> file.</p>
-EOF
-fi
-
-cat >>index.html <<EOF
-<p>(Note that the binary RPMs don't have the POP2, OTP, IPv6, Kerberos,
-GSSAPI, Compuserve RPA, Microsoft NTLM, or GNU gettext
-internationalization support compiled in.  To get any of these you
-will have to build from sources.)</p>
-
-<p>The latest version of fetchmail is also carried in the 
-<a href="http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/mail/pop/!INDEX.html">
-Metalab remote mail tools directory</a>.</p>
-
-<h1>Getting help with fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>There is a fetchmail-friends list for people who want to discuss
-fixes and improvements in fetchmail and help co-develop it.  It's a
-MailMan list, which you can sign up for at <a
-href="http://lists.ccil.org/mailman/listinfo/fetchmail-friends">
-fetchmail-friends@ccil.org</a>.  There is also an announcements-only
-list, <a
-href="http://lists.ccil.org/mailman/listinfo/fetchmail-announce">
-fetchmail-announce@lists.ccil.org</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Note: before submitting a question to the list, <strong>please read
-the <a href="fetchmail-FAQ.html">FAQ</a></strong> (especially item <a
-href="fetchmail-FAQ.html#G3">G3</a> on how to report bugs).  We
-tend to get the same three newbie questions over and over again.  The
-FAQ covers them like a blanket.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail was written and is maintained by <a
-href="../index.html">Eric S. Raymond</a>.  There are some designated
-backup maintainers (<a href="mailto:rfunk@funknet.net">Rob Funk</a>, <a
-href="http://www.dallas.net/~fox/">David DeSimone aka Fuzzy Fox</a>,
-<a href="mailto:imdave@mcs.net">Dave Bodenstab</a> and <a 
-href="mailto:shetye@bombay.retortsoft.com">Sunil Shetye</a>).  Other backup
-maintainers may be added in the future, in order to ensure continued
-support should Eric S.  Raymond drop permanently off the net for any
-reason.</p>
-
-<h1>You can help improve fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>I welcome your code contributions.  But even if you don't write code,
-you can help fetchmail improve.</p>
-
-<p>If you administer a site that runs a post-office server, you may be
-able help improve fetchmail by lending me a test account on your site.
-Note that I do not need a shell account for this purpose, just a 
-maildrop.  Nor am I interested in collecting maildrops per se --
-what I'm collecting is different <em>kinds of servers</em>.</p>
-
-<p>Before each release, I run a test harness that sends date-stamped 
-test mail to each site on my regression-test list, then tries to
-retrieve it.  Please take a look at my <a href="testservers.html">
-list of test servers</a>.  If you can lend me an account on a kind
-of server that is <em>not</em> already on this list, please do.</p>
-
-<h1>Who uses fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>Fetchmail entered full production status with the 2.0.0 version in
-November 1996 after about five months of evolution from the ancestral
-<code>popclient</code> utility. It has since come into extremely wide use
-in the Internet/Unix/Linux community.  The Red Hat, Debian and
-Suse Linux distributions and their derivatives all include it.  A
-customized version is used at Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link. Several
-large ISPs are known to recommend it to Unix-using SLIP and PPP
-customers.</p>
-
-<p>Somewhere around a thousand people have participated on the fetchmail
-beta lists (at time of current release there were $subscribers on the
-friends and announce lists).  While it's hard to count the users of
-open-source software, we can estimate based on (a) population figures
-at the WELL and other known fetchmail sites, (b) the size of the
-Linux-using ISP customer base, and (c) the volume of fetchmail-related
-talk on USENET.  These estimates suggest that daily fetchmail users
-number well into the hundreds of thousands, and possibly over a million.</p>
-
-<h1>The sociology of fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>The fetchmail development project was a sociological experiment as well
-as a technical effort.  I ran it as a test of some theories about why the
-Linux development model works.</p>
-
-<p>I wrote a paper, <a
-href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/">The
-Cathedral And The Bazaar</a>, about these theories and the project.
-I developed the line of analysis it suggested in two later essays.
-These papers became quite popular and (to my continuing astonishment) may
-have actually helped change the world.  Chase the title link, above,
-for links to all three papers.</p>
-
-<p>I have done some analysis on the information in the project NEWS file.
-You can view a <a href="history.html">statistical history</a> showing
-levels of participation and release frequency over time.</p>
-
-<h1>Recent releases and where fetchmail is going:</h1>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is now sufficiently stable and effective that I'm getting
-very little pressure to fix things or add features.  Development has
-slowed way down, release frequency has dropped off, and we're
-basically in maintainance mode.</p>
-
-<p>Major changes or additions therefore seem unlikely until there are
-significant changes in or additions to the related protocol RFCs.</p>
-
-<h1>Where you can use fetchmail:</h1>
-
-<p>The fetchmail code was developed under Linux, but has also been
-extensively tested under 4.4BSD, SunOS, Solaris, AIX, and NEXTSTEP.  It
-should be readily portable to other Unix variants (it requires only
-POSIX plus BSD sockets, and uses GNU autoconf).</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail is supported only for Unix by its official maintainers.
-However, it is reported to build and run correctly under BeOS,
-AmigaOS, Rhapsody, and QNX as well.  There is a CygWin port.</p>
-
-<h1>Related resources:</h1>
-
-<p>Jochen Hayek is developing a set of
-<a href="http://www.ACM.org/~Jochen_Hayek/JHimap_utils/">
-IMAP tools in Python</a> that read your .fetchmailrc file and are
-designed to work with fetchmail.   Jochen's tools can report selected
-header lines, or move incoming messages to named mailboxes based on
-the contents of headers.</p>
-
-<p>Donncha O Caoihm has written a Perl script called 
-<a href="http://cork.linux.ie/projects/install-sendmail/">install-sendmail</a>
-that assists you in installing sendmail and fetchmail together.</p>
-
-<p>Peter Hawkins has written a script called <a
-href="http://linux.cudeso.be/linuxdoc/gotmail.php">gotmail</a> that
-can retrieve Hotmail. Another script, <a
-href="http://yosucker.sourceforge.net">yosucker</a>, can retrieve
-Yahoo webmail.</p>
-
-<p>There's a program called
-<http://mailfilter.sourceforge.net/'>mailfilter</a> which can be used
-to do span filtering, that works particularly well called from fetchmail's
-<code>preconnect</code> directive,</p>
-
-<p>A hacker identifying himself simply as \`Steines' has written a
-filter which rewrites the to-line with a line which only includes
-receipients for a given domain and renames the old to-line. It also
-rewrites the domain-part of addresses if the offical domain is
-different from the local domain. You can find it <a 
-href="http://www.steines.com/mailf/">here</a>.</p>
-
-<h1>Fetchmail's funniest fan letter:</h1>
-
-<a href="funny.html">This letter</a> still cracks me up whenever I reread it. 
-
-<h1>The fetchmail button:</h1>
-
-<p>If you use fetchmail and like it, here's a nifty fetchmail button you
-can put on your web page:</p>
-
-<center><img src="fetchmail.png" alt="fetchmail logo" /></center>
-
-<p>Thanks to <a href="http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~smatus1/">Steve
-Matuszek</a> for the graphic design.  The hand in the button (and the
-larger top-of-page graphic) was actually derived from a color scan of
-the fetchmail author's hand.</p>
-
-<h1>Fetchmail mirror sites:</h1>
-
-<p>There is a FTP mirror of the current sources and RPMs in Japan at
-<a href="ftp://ftp.win.ne.jp/pub/network/mail/fetchmail">
-ftp://ftp.win.ne.jp/pub/network/mail/fetchmail</a>.
-
-<h1>Reviews and Awards</h1>
-
-<p>Fetchmail was DaveCentral's Best Of Linux winner for
-<a href="http://linux.davecentral.com/bol_19990630.html">June 30 1999</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Fetchmail was a five-star Editor's Pick at Softlandindia.</p>
