+# BUG FIXES:
+* When specifying multiple local multidrop lists, do not lose wildcard flag.
+  (Affects "user foo is bar baz * is joe here")
+* In multidrop configurations, an asterisk can now appear anywhere in the list
+  of local users, not just at the end.
+* In multidrop mode, header parsing is now more verbose in -vv mode, so that it
+  becomes possible to see which header is used.
+
+# KNOWN BUGS AND WORKAROUNDS:
+  (this section floats upwards through the NEWS file so it stays with the
+  current release information - however, it was stuck with 6.3.8 for a while)
+* fetchmail does not handle messages without Message-ID header well
+  (See sourceforge.net bug #780933)
+* BSMTP is mostly untested and errors can cause corrupt output.
+* Sun Workshop 6 (SPARC) is known to miscompile the configuration file lexer in
+  64-bit mode.  Either compile 32-bit code or use GCC to compile 64-bit
+  fetchmail.  Note that fetchmail doesn't take advantage of 64-bit code,
+  so compiling 32-bit SPARC code should not cause any difficulties.
+* fetchmail does not track pending deletes over crashes.
+* the command line interface is sometimes a bit stubborn, for instance,
+  fetchmail -s doesn't work with a daemon running.
+* Linux systems may return duplicates of an IP address in some circumstances if
+  no or no global IPv6 addresses are configured.
+  (No workaround. Ubuntu Bug#582585, Novell Bug#606980.)
+* Kerberos 5 may be broken, particularly on Heimdal, and provide bogus error
+  messages. This will not be fixed, because the maintainer has no Kerberos 5
+  server to test against. Use GSSAPI.
