the downloaded mail and the state of your folders. A good example of what
you can do with your own front end.
-### fetchspool:
-
-If you find that the speed of forwarding to port 25 is limited by the
-SMTP listener's speed, it may make sense to locally spool all the mail
-first and feed it to sendmail after you hang up the network link.
-This shellscript aims to do exactly that. It would be smarter to
-figure out why sendmail is slow, however.
-
-### fetchsetup:
-
-This is a shell script for creating a $HOME/.fetchmailrc file, it will ask
-you some questions and based on your answers it will create a .fetchmailrc
-file. fetchsetup is linux specific so it may not work on another operating
-system.

### mailqueue.pl:
This script will connect to your ISP (if not already connected),
when it is done. By Bill Adams, <bill@evil.inetarena.com>. The
latest version is carried at <http://evil.inetarena.com/>.
-### redhat_rc:
-
-A fetchmail boot-time init file compatible with RedHat 5.1. It leaves
-fetchmail in background to get messages when you connect to your ISP.
-The invoked fetchmail expects to find its configuration in
-/etc/fetchmailrc, and must include the proper "interface" directive.
-
-### debian_rc:
-
-A fetchmail boot-time init file compatible with Debian. It leaves
-fetchmail in background to get messages when you connect to your ISP.
-The invoked fetchmail expects to find its configuration in
-/root/.fetchmailrc, and must include the proper "interface" directive.
-
-Matthias Andree adds: note that current Debian packages (as of January
-2007) ship with their own init files.
-
-### start_dynamic_ppp:
-
-An admittedly scratchy ip-up script that Ryan Murray wrote to cope with
-dynamic PPP addressing. Will need some customizing.

-
-### getfetchmail:
-
-Here's a script that gets Eric's most recent fetchmail source rpm,
-downloads it and (if the rpm's not broken) rebuilds it.
-
-With fairly simple changes it can be used to download the latest i386 rpm
-or tar.gz.
-
-Those who are addicted to having the latest of everything could filter mail
-from fetchmail announce through it and get new versions as they're
-announced. However, if we all did that, Eric's ftp server might feel a
-little stressed.
-
-The script as written works on bash 2. By John Summerfield
-<summer@os2.ami.com.au>.
-
-### zsh-completion:
-
-These commands set up command completion for fetchmail under zsh.

### getmail/gotmail:
These scripts are front ends for fetchmail in daemon mode that can gather
log statistics and generate text or HTML reports. See README.getmail for
details. Scripts by Thomas Nesges <ThomaNesges@TNT-Computer.de>.
-### fetchmaildistrib:
-
-This script resolves the issue where the sysadmin polls for mail with fetchmail
-only at set intervals, but where a user wishes to see his email right
-away. The duplication in /etc/fetchmailrc and ~/.fetchmailrc files is
-automated with this script; whenever /etc/fetchmailrc is changed, this
-script is run to distribute the stuff into all user's ~/.fetchmailrc
-files.
-
-### multidrop:
-
-Martijn Lievaart's sendmail hacks to make multidrop reliable.
-
-### domino:
-
-Gustavo Chaves <gustavo@cpqd.com.br> wrote this script to deal with
-the boundary-mismatch bug in Domino (see FAQ item X5). If you use
-this with --mda, the broken boundaries will be fixed and the result
-passed to procmail.
-
-### toprocmail:
-
-John Lim Eng Hooi <jleh@mail.com> wrote this script, yet another
-mda plugin, to be used with fetchmail in foreground mode. It displays
-some header lines to stdout in color, passing them (and the rest of the
-message content) to procmail.
-
-### preauth-harness:
-
-Emmanuel Dreyfus's Perl test script for exercising IMAP PREAUTH
-connections. You'll have to patch in your username and password.
-
-### sm-hybrid:
-
-Peter 'Rattacresh' Backes sent this patch to improve the behavior of
-sendmail 8.11.0 with multidrop.
-
-### fetchmailnochda.pl
-
-Watchdog script to check whether fetchmail is working in daemon mode.
-
### mold-remover.py
A short python script to remove old read mail from a pop3 mailserver.
when he wanted to use /var/log/fetchmail instead of the usual syslog.
It probably needs to be adjusted for use on other systems.
-### delete-later (added 2007-03-17, --ma)
+### rawlog.patch (added 2011-06-17, --ma)
-A MySQL/Tcl/Expect-based client-side script to remove messages at a
-certain age. See delete-later.README for details.
-(By Carsten Ralle, Yoo GmbH, Germany.)
+A patch against fetchmail 6.3.20 to allow creating a raw socket log if
+configured through an environment variable, to assist debugging and
+troubleshooting. Documentation at the beginning of the file.
