I recently updated fetchmail 6.3.1-1 from 6.2.5-2. I now get an error
when it connects to one of my mail servers. Using "fetchamil -v" I
noticed a difference in the output that indicates the likely problem.

6.3.1-1 give this message when the connection fails:

fetchmail: 6.3.1 querying mail.********.*** (protocol POP3) at Fri Jun 16 15:05:3
1 2006: poll started
fetchmail: getaddrinfo("mail.********.***","pop3s") error: nodename nor servname 
provided, or not known
fetchmail: POP3 connection to mail.********.*** failed: Operation not permitted

6.2.5-2 returns this:
fetchmail: 6.2.5 querying mail.********.*** (protocol POP3) at Fri Jun 16 15:17:4
7 2006: poll started
fetchmail: Warning: server certificate verification: self signed certificate in 
certificate chain
fetchmail: Warning: server certificate verification: self signed certificate in 
certificate chain
fetchmail: Issuer Organization: RSA Data Security, Inc.
fetchmail: Unknown Issuer CommonName
fetchmail: Server CommonName: mail.********.***
fetchmail: mail.********.*** key fingerprint: **:**:**:....
fetchmail: Warning: server certificate verification: self signed certificate in 
certificate chain
fetchmail: POP3< +OK <3740.1150489067@********.***> (sccrpxc04) Maillennium POP3/
PROXY server #29

and continues on and completes successfully.

The fetchmail man pages indicate that the self signed certificate is
still allowed, but 6.3.1-1 seems to be not accepting it.
