-There are two incompatible changes from 2.x.
-
- Mbox delivery is now accomplished via an external MDA including
- getmail_mbox, which is included in this version of getmail.
- It assumes mboxrd format and flock locking. Use with care.
-
- The recipient_header directive is renamed to "envelope_recipient".
- You might have to update your getmailrc.

+
+The getmail rc file (configuration file) format has changed since
+version 3.x. If you are upgrading from version 3, you will need to
+write a new configuration file based on the contents of your old
+one. The new file format resembles the old in many ways. Each
+account you retrieve mail from will require a separate rc file,
+but getmail can operate with multiple rc files simultaneously if
+you wish to retrieve mail from multiple accounts.
