+fetchmail-6.3.26 (released 2013-04-23, 26180 LoC):
+
+# NOTE THAT FETCHMAIL IS NO LONGER PUBLISHED THROUGH IBIBLIO.
+* They have stopped accepting submissions and consider themselves an archive.
+
+# CRITICAL BUG FIX for setups using "mimedecode":
+* The mimedecode feature failed to ship the last line of the body if it was
+ encoded as quoted-printable and had a MIME soft line break in the very last
+ line. Reported by Lars Hecking in June 2011.
+
+ Bug introduced on 1998-03-20 when the mimedecode support was added by ESR
+ before release 4.4.1 through code contributed by Henrik Storner.
+ Workaround for older releases: do not use mimedecode feature.
+
+ Earlier versions of this NEWS file claimed this bug fixed in fetchmail-6.3.23,
+ but it was not.
+
+ Fixes Launchpad Bug#1171818.
+
+# KNOWN BUGS AND WORKAROUNDS
+ (This section floats upwards through the NEWS file so it stays with the
+ current release information)
+* 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 across 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.

# BUG FIXES
* Fix a memory leak in out-of-memory error condition while handling plugins.
missing trust anchors (root certificates).
* OpenSSL decoded errors are now reported through report(), rather than dumped
to stderr, so that they should show up in logfiles and/or syslog.
+* The fetchmail manual page no longer claims that MD5 were the default OpenSSL
+ hash format (for use with --sslfingerprint). Reported by Jakob Wilk,
+ PARTIAL fix for Debian Bug#700266.
+* The fetchmail manual page now refers the user to --softbounce from the
+ SMTP/ESMTP ERROR HANDLING section. Reported by Anton Shterenlikht.
# WORKAROUNDS
* Older systems that provide the older RFC-2553 implementation of getaddrinfo,
The proper fix, however, is to upgrade the operating system.

fetchmail-6.3.24 (released 2012-12-23, 26108 LoC):
-# NOTE THAT THE RELEASE OF FUTURE FETCHMAIL 6.3.X VERSIONS IS UNCLEAR.
-Should a 7.0 release be made earlier, chances are that the 6.3.X branch
-is abandoned and its changes be folded into the 7.0 release, with changes
-after 6.3.24 not available on their own in a newer 6.3.X release.
-
-# NOTE THAT FETCHMAIL IS NO LONGER PUBLISHED THROUGH IBIBLIO.
- They have stopped accepting submissions and consider themselves an archive.
-
# CRITICAL AND REGRESSION FIXES
* Plug a memory leak in OpenSSL's certificate verification callback.
This would affect fetchmail configurations running with SSL in daemon mode
code, and only parts of the manual page claimed that --logfile was only
effective in daemon mode.
