2 - BerliOS Bug #10972, Fetchmail refetches big messages repeatedly (SMTP listener
4 - publish SA-2007-02 after release
5 - Debian Bug #475239, MIME decoder may break up words (need to quote results)
6 - Replace sscanf/fscanf by functions that do range checking (strtol/strtoul) :-/
7 See http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6453
8 - Ubuntu Launchpad Bug #64152, fetchmailconf fails if fetchmail compiled
9 without res_search() since "dns" missing in "Server" typemap.

11 - Ubuntu Launchpad Bug #151333, cannot download mail with long Cc: field
12 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fetchmail/+bug/151333
15 - https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=246829 - fetchmail lost some mail
16 (5XX error code in contradiction with manual?)
17 also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=471283
18 - allow \Deleted without \Seen, rf.
19 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=466299
20 - document IMAP4 ACL requirements
21 - log configured server name on certificate mismatch (perhaps pay
22 attention to via entries and stuff like that)
23 - BerliOS Bug #11576, thread on fetchmail users "Invalid SSL certificate" by
24 Philip Susi, SSL negotiation does not use ERR_error_string(3ssl) to report
25 errors in a readable way, we just report socket errors with no good reason.
26 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=432618
27 * write a table of combinations of TLS/SSL options
28 - add To: header to warning mails (authfail for instance)
29 - Debian Bug#449179, smbutil.c:90: unicodeToString: Assertion `len+1 < sizeof
30 buf' failed, from Stepan Golosunov <stepan@golosunov.pp.ru>
31 - Fix TOCTOU race around prc_filecheck*
32 - Get rid of peeking in socket.c? MSG_PEEK seems non-portable and racey.
35 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=471176
36 => fetchmail: support utf-8 encoding in log file
37 Revisit http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=400719
38 => syslog messages are localised
39 http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/11/msg01068.html
42 - find a solution for the "invalid header" discards message problem
43 (escape headers and stuff reminder into body)
44 - add Message-ID: header and other SHOULD headers to warning mails?
45 - report multiline SMTP errors properly (sample in private mail from
46 Earl Chew, 2007-07-30T02:28)
47 => requires reworking SMTP_ok to actually not only read the last line
48 of multiline replies, but buffer.
49 - revise ticker, and add something like .........20%.... ... 100%
53 - Convert POP3 UIDs to X-UIDL?
54 - fetch IMAP message in one go (fetchmail-devel by Adam Simpkins
55 <simpkins@cisco.com> around Nov 2nd)?
58 - revisit maximum allowed rcfile permissions, fix inconsistency
59 (silently allowing g+x).
60 - make UID code more efficient, parsing is O(n^2), should be no worse
62 - help systematic debugging
63 - by making logging more strict (Postfix's msg_* as example??)
64 - by adding a --loggingtest or something that emits
65 a set of test log messages at various severity levels, in order to
66 make sure people get complete logs.
67 - by adding messages where fetchmail stuffed its output.
68 - Debian Bug #454291 fetchmail --quit: should check, that pid file
69 really contains pid of fetchmail process (Dmitry Nezhevenko)
71 - feature to skip first N or all messages upon first download
72 - download only messages whose headers match a filter (by Toby, Usenet

74 Message-ID: <1195033726.123704.296060@k79g2000hse.googlegroups.com>)
75 - feature request by Daniel Goering <g_daniel@gmx.net> on
76 fetchmail-devel 2007-11-15: populate .fetchids from current messages.
77 (it'll probably be useful to limit this to "all but the 10 latest" or
78 "all before date this-and-that")
79 - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=374514
80 "Deleting fetchids file" vs. POP3 - probably unneeded if we use IMAP UIDs.
81 - change SSL/TLS UI incompatibly, making it easier to use
82 - allow selection of SSL/TLS Ciphers
83 - perhaps switch to libgsasl and libgnutls (which doesn't talk SSLv2)
84 - make the SSL default v3 (rather than v23).
85 - put more hints to the FAQ (should we call it FGA?) as first support place
86 - make sure we print socket error messages such as connection reset by
87 peer to hint users the problem is not in fetchmail
88 - > b) When the envelope header is specified, but it isn't found, a
89 > warning is logged and the mail is forwarded to the postmaster
90 > ("WARNING: Envelope header $HEADER found, cannot identify the
91 > recipient. Forwarding to the postmaster")
92 Rob MacGregor 2007-03-16 Patch to the man page, fetchmail-devel@
93 - integrate Isaac Wilcox's test rig
94 - look at Tony Earnshaw's .spec file
95 - look at Gentoo patches
96 - remove dead replacement functions: strdup (Andreas Krennmair), ...
97 - more SMTP/LMTP error detail on message rejections even outside verbose mode.
98 Ian D. Allen, fetchmail-users. Two messages with examples.
99 What goes here? fetchmailrc location, server, port, user, folder, anything else?
100 - see if "AUTH SSH" can be made to work for POP3
101 - revisit BerliOS patches
102 - check recent list mail
103 - check Debian BTS and other bug trackers
104 - better logging (log all headers, log forward destination + method)
105 - check strict envelope N Received parsing,
106 see mail from Admin Att on fetchmail-users
107 - 6.3.4-pending-deletes.patch
108 - fetchmail -s with running daemon complains rather than silently
110 - send warning message when connection fails?
111 - when logging to syslog, disable locale?
112 - check FAQ O5 - do we really prefer From: over envelope?!?
113 - add code to allow safe authentication schemes if TLS fails
114 - make APOP an authenticator, integrate with regular auto authentication
115 but stuff it at the end
116 - allow forcing RETR (RETR vs. TOP, fetchmail-users, drbob 2008-01-11)
118 - make logfile more useful (redirect not only in daemon mode)
119 - for virtual mapping, we don't currently support local user aliases or
120 regexp matching with replacement. This would be useful for hosting
121 several virtual domains in one multidrop mailbox, as in
128 some@one.example maps to bob-one-some@serverdomain
129 another@two.example maps to bob-two-example@serverdomain
131 we can strip the bob-*, but but we don't support domain catchalls
132 here, and we cannot currently delegate or rewrite the remaining
133 one-* or two-* users in a useful way. All local parts of the upstream
134 domains must be known and mapped in the configuration file.
135 (See fetchmail-users, Michelle Konzack, 2009-05-03, "4 multidrop but one
136 destination server" and followup)
138 This probably entails some form of extended user mapping inside
139 fetchmail, for map_name() in transact.c, and possibly
140 find_server_names() ibidem.
143 - Add info whether Keywords are global, server or user keywords
144 - consolidate multidrop documentation
