-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Corinna, and everyone else who is interested, checking <https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/fetchmail.html>, I see that Cygwin packages a very old fetchmail version that has unfixed security vulnerabilities and unfixed critical (data loss) bugs. Constructively moving forward, please: 1. I am about to release 6.4.0 in a few weeks' time with a few important SSL/TLS/OpenSSL updates that permit newer OpenSSL versions, require OpenSSL v1.0.2, and practically permit TLS v1.3 if linked against a sufficiently new OpenSSL. We're shy of 200 commits since the last formal release 6.3.26, and 276 changes past 6.3.21, the younger x86 (32bit) package for Cygwin. High-level details in the NEWS file linked below. Care was taken to not break the interfaces too hard, but in the sense of security, I carefully changed --sslproto semantics and flipped the switch 2. Note that fetchmail has seen several SECURITY and CRITICAL bug fixes since 6.3.21/6.3.22. Review <https://gitlab.com/fetchmail/fetchmail/blob/legacy_64/NEWS> for details, and look for these two capitalized words. 3. Please try to package 6.4.0.rc2 for x86 and x86_64 against Cygwin's libssl1.1, and see if you find any portability issues that would require fixing before 6.4.0. Deadline end of August 2019, and unless really needed for non-trivial code changes, rc2 is also the planned final candidate. Source tarballs and detached ASCII-armored GnuPG signatures at <https://sourceforge.net/projects/fetchmail/files/branch_6.4/>. Thanks for your consideration.
