fetchmail-4.4.8 ():
* Removed fetchall side-effect kluge, now that we knowe how to make TOP work
with qpopper 2.3+.
+* Several fixes for command-line processing from Gunther Leber:
+ - in fetchmail.c
+ * set tmpbuf to NULL after freeing the buffer (so this will hopefully
+ cause a coredump, when tmpbuf is used somewhere else)
+ * when makeing sure we have a nonempty host list to forward to, I
+ added "localhost" for non ETRN protocols. This should relieve the
+ situation for people, who do neither have a static ip-address
+ (hostname) assigned and neither bother to set up a dummy-interface
+ for their hostname. I think this feature was already in fetchmail
+ in an older version. We lost this, when we changed the code that it
+ would work with ETRN. My fix here works for both ETRN and non ETRN.
+ - fixed reversed dumping of mimedecode option
+ - in options.c
+ * changed char buf[...] to *buf + xmalloc to avoid buffer overuns and
+ possible resulting (and annoying) coredumps
+ * in parsecmdline(): replaced atoi by xatoi which uses strtol and
+ better validity checks for input numbers. This fix only works on
+ ANSI-C systems; old systems still use atoi.

fetchmail-4.3.7 (Tue Feb 17 21:30:26 EST 1998)
* Fixed a minor bug in the IMAP re-polling logic.
* Nicholas Pitre's extensive changes to multidrop:
-
- Seek for the true sender of a mail which is not necessarily in the
From: header. (see comments in the code for more explicit details).
This one is particularly important with list distributions...
-
- Respect the Resent-To/-Cc/-Bcc precedence over the To/Cc/Bcc headers
for recipient delivery. So avoid resending a message to a person who
just resent a mail to some other addresses.
-
- Fix a bug in find_server_names() wich caused recipient addresses to
figure twice in the recipient address list.
-
- Modified parse_received() to let full adress from the Received header to
pass through so local domains can be used (now has same policy as in
the find_server_names() function).
-
- Fixed memory leaks from readheaders().
-
- Made some strcmp() be strcasecmp() as it should be because it didn't
work correctly in some cases.
-
- Modified reply_hack() to meet the needs of above modifications.
-
Thomas says these changes have been tested for two weeks in a production
multidrop environment. I tested them for another week in mine.
