  RECENT and EXISTS counts. (Matthias Andree)
* Holger Mauermann's bounce patch, to use a NULL envelope from, not
  write a Return-Path header (both to meet RFC-2821), changed From,
  added Subject header, rewording the human readable part. (Matthias Andree)
* Merge Sunil Shetye's time.h handling fix. (Matthias Andree)
* Merge Gerd von Egidy's patch to avoid a segfault in multidrop/received
  mode when the Received: headers are malformatted. (Matthias Andree)
* MIME-encode bodies and Subject headers of warning messages (Matthias
  Andree), limiting the header to 7 bits.

  Andree)

  than one server is configured. Patch by Brian Candler. (Matthias
  Andree)

  Candler. (Matthias Andree)
* SSL certificate checking fixes, don't display same error message twice
  in succession, make sure that Common Name and fingerprint checking are
  only done once. Print all validation warnings/errors even if not in
  verbose mode. Patch by Brian Candler. (Matthias Andree)
* Import Bjorn Reese and Daniel Stenberg's MIT-licensed Trio 1.10 from
  http://daniel.haxx.se/projects/trio/ for systems that do not support

  requested by Manfred Weihs. (Matthias Andree)

  - fetchmail-6.2.5-random-result.patch (uninitialized variable/opie.c)
* Revised some bogus assertions about POP3 LAST and UIDL use in the
  manual page. UIDL isn't flaky as the man page suggested, but a
  reliability feature. In fact, IMAP4 code is flaky in that it relies on
  the upstream seen flags. (Matthias Andree)

  of the "port" variable, avoiding "port None" corruption in .fetchmailrc.

  space for \r\n trailers in snprintf calls. Sent by Miloslav Trmac,
