2008-09-27Update to 4.8.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-Add missing fsync() in updatefile close method to ensure data actually hits disk before the rename takes place, to make writing of the oldmail file more resilient to system crashes. Thanks: Domen Puncer.
2008-08-13Update to 4.8.3. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- Improve information sent to logfile about messages not retrieved. Thanks: Scott.
2008-08-02Update to 4.8.2. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- for IMAP retrievers, keep message state around for 30 days even if the corresponding message isn't seen. This allows users to have multiple rc files with different IMAP folders to retrieve from without losing their "seen" mail state for the folders they're not currently retrieving from. You no longer need to work around this with different getmail state directories. Thanks: ?.
2008-04-25Update PYTHON_VERSIONS_COMPATIBLEjoerg1-2/+1
- assume that Python 2.4 and 2.5 are compatible and allow checking for fallout. - remove PYTHON_VERSIONS_COMPATIBLE that are obsoleted by the 2.3+ default. Modify the others to deal with the removals.
2008-03-27Update to 4.8.1. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
* fix use of Python 2.4 set builtin in 4.8.0 preventing getmail from running on Python 2.3.x.
2008-02-19Update to 4.8.0. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
* better diagnostic when user invalidly supplies timeout configuration parameter for an IMAP-SSL retriever. Thanks: Dennis S. * code cleanups
2008-02-19Update to 4.7.8. From the changelog:schmonz3-9/+17
* explicitly close current IMAP mailbox when selecting a new one, so all servers expunge deleted mail. Thanks: Josh Triplett. * include experimental spec file for creating RPM with rpmbuild. Thanks: Dag Wieers, Rob Loos, Dries Verachtert. * convert changelog to utf-8 encoding. * update email addresses, etc. Domain for mailing lists has changed to lists.pyropus.ca. * add FAQ about memory errors on OS X. Thanks: Andres Gasson. * drop log message level for stderr output of destination if ignore_stderr is set, just like for filter. Thanks: Jeremy Chadwick.
2007-08-11Update to 4.7.6. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-fix exception when getmail is trying to report a POP3 server that completely missed generating a UIDL token for a message. Thanks: Hans Lammerts.
2007-06-07Update to 4.7.5. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-make updatefile honour symlinks, so users can alias one server's oldmail state file to another (for split-horizon DNS and other strange configurations). Thanks: Scott Hepler.
2007-04-24Update to 4.7.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-explicitly watch for broken POP3 servers that return a blank UIDL value (not permitted by the POP3 protocol) and print a fatal error message. Thanks: Florian Hackenberger and Cameron Rangeley.
2007-03-18Update to 4.7.3. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-fix wrong bytecount displayed in summary at end of run. Thanks: Andreas Jung.
2007-02-21Update to 4.7.2. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6

2007-02-02Update to 4.7.1. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-add max_bytes_per_session option. Thanks: Robert Spencer. -documentation additions.
2007-01-25Update to 4.7.0. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- make Mboxrd lock type configurable (lockf or flock). Change default to lockf. Thanks: Norman Carver.
2007-01-04Update to 4.6.7. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-better handling for some fatal violations of POP/IMAP protocols. -formatting cleanups.
2006-12-13Update to 4.6.6. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- add ignore_stderr option to MDA_external destination. Thanks: Daniel Burrows. - documentation cleanups.
2006-11-07Update to 4.6.5. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- disable debug logging message which would show up in messages if --trace was used and the message was passed through an external filter. Thanks: Christian Bruemmer. - add additional sanity checks to ensure a recent-enough Python is used; trying to run getmail 4 with Python 2.2 would throw an exception. Thanks: fakhri ?.
2006-10-09Flag a number of packages I use as supporting (user-)destdir.joerg1-1/+3
apg is a bit special as it has some hardcoded ownership, so mark that as "destdir".
2006-10-02Update to 4.6.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- add FAQ about BrokenUIDLPOP3 retrievers. - add better diagnostics for missing/invalid/unwritable state/data directory. Thanks: Christian Authmann.
2006-07-01Update to 4.6.3. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- fix regression introduced in 4.6.0 where atime on mbox files would get updated (i.e. not set back), making it difficult for other programs to tell if there was new mail or not without actually opening the mbox. Thanks: Tim van der Molen. - fix regression: spurious errors thrown when required multidrop retriever parameter "envelope_recipient" not present in getmailrc file. Thanks: Elliot Schlegelmilch. - fix regression: getmail_fetch no longer properly supported external MDAs because of problems parsing the arguments to them. Thanks: ?. - change getmail's handling of regular expressions in the "locals" parameter of MultiSorter destination to allow it to handle backslashes correctly. Unfortunately this means complicating the configuration syntax slightly. Thanks: Tim van der Molen. - update filters to use new configuration code. Remove obsolete code.
2006-05-31Update to 4.6.1. From the changelog:schmonz3-18/+6
- fix attribute deletion error with Filter_classifier when strip_delivered_to is set. Thanks: ?. - do not consider qmail-local writing to stderr a delivery error. Thanks: ?. Remove nearly 2-year-old MESSAGE about upgrading from version 3.
2006-04-06Update to 4.6.0. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-clean up logger API. -refactor configuration mechanism to use classes with embedded logic, rather than simply dictionaries.
2006-02-20Update to 4.5.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-added Maildir "filemode" parameter. Thanks: Martin Haag.
2006-02-14Update to 4.5.3. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
* keyfile and certfile parameters to SSL retrievers are now expanded for leading "~/" and "~username/" as well as environment variables, just like other path parameters. Thanks: Fredrik Steen.
2006-02-08Update to 4.5.2. From the changelog:schmonz2-7/+6
-fix IMAP bug where no mail was retrieved introduced in 4.5.0. Thanks: Scott Robbins.
2006-02-05Recursive revision bump / recommended bump for gettext ABI change.joerg1-1/+2
2006-02-04Update to 4.5.1. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
- add delete_dup_msgids option to non-multidrop POP3 retrievers. Thanks: Matthias Andree. - suppress stack trace in getmail_fetch error message when configuration error detected. Thanks: Dave Jarvis. - documentation updates. - build and development environment changes. The plaintext versions of the documentation are now generated with links instead of lynx. - explicitly log the reason for not retrieving a message (seen or oversized). Thanks: Payal Rathod.
2006-01-03Update to 4.4.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-improve parsing of flags in IMAP responses. Thanks: Gareth McCaughan.
2005-12-02Update to 4.4.3. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-fix harmless copy and paste error in IMAPRetrieverBase class. Thanks: Henry Miller.
2005-11-21Update to 4.4.2. From the changelog:schmonz3-7/+9
4.3.14: -Fix copy and paste error that caused BrokenUIDLPOP3SSLRetriever to default to port 110. Thanks: Daniel Burrows via Fredrik Steen. 4.4.0: -add new POP3-over-SSL initialization class, which is automatically used when Python 2.4 or newer is in use. This reduces the overhead involved in retrieving messages from a POP3SSL server (reduces systime about 35%, user time about 50%, wall time 10-30%). Thanks: Jan Vereecke. -add getmail_fetch configuration-less commandline POP retriever, perfect for scripting use. Development of getmail_fetch was sponsored by Texas Communications. -future proofing: eliminate relative imports within getmailcore package. 4.4.1: -work around bug in Python which meant POP3-over-SSL with Python >= 2.4 could "hang" (it's exactly the same bug that affected getmail's initial IMAP-over-SSL code). 4.4.2: -fix logging import in corrupt messages with Python 2.3. Thanks: Marco Ferra.
2005-10-16Update to 4.3.13. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-add BrokenUIDLPOP3SSLRetriever as SSL version of BrokenUIDLPOP3Retriever, based on an idea by a user of the Debian package. Thanks: Daniel Burrows, Fredrik Steen. -remove deprecated "strict" argument from message/header parsing calls. While it was possible to suppress the warning that resulted when using Python 2.4, it appears many getmail users couldn't bother to do that and complained to me instead.
2005-06-28Update to 4.3.11. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-getmail could previously record an envelope return path header of "<<>>". Fixed. Thanks: Fredrik Steen.
2005-05-19Update to 4.3.10:schmonz2-6/+6
-bugfix for missing import. Thanks: Matthias Andree.
2005-05-18Update to 4.3.9. From the changelog:schmonz2-7/+6
-for multidrop retrievers, change the way the envelope recipient header field is parsed, to prevent odd values from being interpreted as multiple addresses when they look like an 822-style address group. Thanks: "aal". -try to avoid parsing message bodies, in case they're corrupt or invalid. Thanks: Michael Gold.
2005-05-07Update to 4.3.8. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-change (again) handling of deleted messages vs. connection that dies. Inability to send QUIT to POP3 server should be less problematic now. -improve housekeeping of old message state file. Thanks: Thomas Schwinge.
2005-05-01Update to 4.3.7. From the changelog:schmonz3-9/+9
-add error message for missing mboxrd file. Thanks: Marco Ferra. -change handling of connection that dies vs. deleted messages. Thanks: Thomas Schwinge.
2005-04-11Remove USE_BUILDLINK3 and NO_BUILDLINK; these are no longer used.tv1-2/+1
2005-04-09Update to 4.3.6. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-broke BrokenUIDLPOP3Retriever when I added the forget_deleted parameter to the retrievers base class; now fixed. Thanks: Georg Neis.
2005-04-06Update to 4.3.5. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
* make getmail less conservative about remembering messages as already-seen when unrelated errors occur after successfully delivering them. Thanks: Thomas Schwinge.
2005-03-21Update to 4.3.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
Version 4.3.4 14 March 2005 -documentation changes; getmail v4 cannot run natively on Windows. Use Cygwin if you must run on a Windows platform; this works. -remove some Windows-specific code. Version 4.3.3 19 February 2005 -previously, for safety, getmail would re-retrieve messages after a session that encountered errors. However, getmail had enough information to safely remember those messages that had been successfully delivered. This behaviour has been changed, to avoid delivering duplicate messages where it isn't necessary. Thanks: Thomas Schwinge. -in output/log files, getmailrc files are now specified only by filename, instead of by complete paths. This will prevent some overly-long output lines. -add Windows versions of functions to lock/unlock files, so mbox delivery can be used on Windows. Thanks: Felix Schwarz.
2005-02-24Add RMD160 digests.agc1-1/+2
2005-02-16HOMEPAGE moved. Take MAINTAINER for queue_repair at author'sschmonz1-2/+2
months-ago request.
2005-02-06Update to 4.3.2. From the changelog:schmonz2-5/+5
-previously, if an SSL POP3 or IMAP server abruptly closed the connection before getmail could finish logging in, getmail would exit instead of proceeding to the next configured mail account. Fixed. Thanks: Matthias Andree, Frank Benkstein, Thomas Schwinge. -eliminate duplicate Return-Path: header fields. Thanks: Angles Puglisi.
2005-01-23Build Python with thread support by default and turn the existingrecht1-2/+2
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect existing installations. Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
2005-01-18Update to 4.3.1. From the changelog:schmonz2-5/+5
-some IMAP errors would cause getmail to raise an exception, instead of gracefully proceeding with the next configured mail account. Fixed. Thanks: Matthias Andree.
2005-01-10Update to 4.3.0. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-add BrokenUIDLPOP3Retriever class to support servers that do not implement the UIDL command, or which fail to uniquely identify messages using it.
2005-01-03Update to 4.2.6. From the changelog:schmonz2-5/+5
-add new error message and documentation for POP3 servers that cannot uniquely identify messages in a mailbox. Thanks: Thomas Schwinge.
2004-12-20Update to 4.2.5. From the changelog:schmonz2-6/+6
-fix typo in getmailcore/exceptions.py that would raise a NameError exception in certain rare cases. Thanks: Gour ?.
2004-12-06Update to 4.2.4. From the changelog:schmonz2-5/+5
Version 4.2.3 18 November 2004 -documentation updates. -getmailrc examples file updated. Thanks: Scott Robbins. -clarify error message when user insecurely tries to deliver mail as GID 0. Version 4.2.4 22 November 2004 -one type of filter error would cause getmail to skip to the next configured mail account, rather than simply proceeding to the next message from the same account. Fixed. Thanks: Adrien Beau. -documentation updates.
2004-10-20Update to 4.2.2. From the changelog:schmonz2-5/+5
Version 4.1.5 13 September 2004 -getmail would not delete messages from the server if it was configured not to retrieve them and the delete_after directive was not in use (i.e. user normally left messages on server but occasionally wanted to force-delete them). Fixed. Thanks: Frankye Fattarelli. Version 4.2.0 18 September 2004 -SECURITY: previous versions of getmail contain a security vulnerability. A local attacker with a shell account could exploit a race condition (or a similar symlink attack) to cause getmail to create or overwrite files in a directory of the local user's choosing if the system administrator ran getmail as root and delivered messages to a maildir or mbox file under the control of the attacker, resulting in a local root exploit. Fixed in versions 4.2.0 and 3.2.5. This vulnerability is not exploitable if the administrator does not deliver mail to the maildirs/mbox files of untrusted local users, or if getmail is configured to use an external unprivileged MDA. This vulnerability is not remotely exploitable. Thanks: David Watson. My gratitude to David for his work on finding and analyzing this problem. -Now, on Unix-like systems when run as root, getmail forks a child process and drops privileges before delivering to maildirs or mbox files. getmail will absolutely refuse to deliver to such destinations as root; the uid to switch to must be configured in the getmailrc file. -revert behaviour regarding delivery to non-existent mbox files. Versions 4.0.0 through 4.1.5 would create the mbox file if it did not exist; in versions 4.2.0 and up, getmail reverts to the v.3 behaviour of refusing to do so. Version 4.2.1 8 October 2004 -set message attributes on corrupt container objects to prevent problems with destinations that expect multidrop-retrieved messages. Thanks: Harry Wearne. -move tests for existence of file from mbox destination initialization to delivery method, and change error from configuration to delivery error. Thanks: David Watson. Version 4.2.2 11 October 2004 -in child delivery processes, change real as well as effective uid/gid. Thanks: David Watson. -handle corrupted oldmail file better. Thanks: Matthias Andree.
