Hello, I'm running fetchmail 6.2.5 version of fetchmail from Debian Etch package. I noticed that the daemon fails retrieving IMAP mails after a certain time. I launch fetchmail as daemon with the init.d script provided by debian. To analyse the problem, I added -v option, and here is the full log illustrating the problem. It is quite long but quite clear too. I'm running Exim 4, procmail, courier imap. 3 polls are configures, POP3, IMAP4 + SSL, IMAP4 here everything's ok: Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: awakened at Tue Aug 30 00:51:49 2005 Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: 6.2.5 querying pop3.evhr.net (protocol POP3) at Tue Aug 30 00:51:49 2005: poll started Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost imaplogin: LOGOUT, user=martin, ip=[::ffff:62.129.161.22], headers=0, body=0, time=0 Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost last message repeated 2 times Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3< +OK POP3 Ready pop.evc.net 0001d8f1 Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3> CAPA Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3< +OK Capability list follows, mate Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3< UIDL Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3< USER Aug 30 00:51:49 localhost fetchmail[2498]: POP3< .

Greetings, I have just released fetchmail 6.2.9-rc2, another release candidate for 6.3.0. The IPv6 protocol support turned out to be rather intrusive, and as a side effect may have harmed domain alias detection for multidrop, the --monitor or --interface option and other systems I am not using. I seek everyone to test it out, report remaining bugs (I know that the IPv6 support is still not 100% complete), update outdated translations or send patches for documentation. The release notes are available at: <http://developer.berlios.de/project/shownotes.php?group_id=1824&release_id=7035> The software is available from: <http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1824&release_id=7035> <http://home.pages.de/~mandree/fetchmail/> ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Fetchmail needs your support - please consider a donation via: <https://developer.berlios.de/developer/make_donation.php?user_id=2007> ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Regards, -- Matthias Andree |

What's wrong is that you've not provided any real information.
Let's start with:
1) Version of fetchmail and contents of .fetchmailrc
2) Output of "fetchmail -v -v" for a problem email
3) Contents of your postfix and cyrus logs for the same email
4) Full header and body of same email, before being passed through
fetchmail and once it's been received by postfix
5) Whether the problem occurs when amavisd-new is not being used
6) Whether or not fetchmail is running on the same host as postfix (I assume so)
7) Does the problem occur if you send a mail, using the command line,
on the postfix server

Please keep list traffic on the list.

You mentioned having tried Mozilla and Opera. These have no problem displaying the whole content with a horizontal scrollbar for the whole page. This very much qualifies as "available", albeit with a minor annoyance, which you can fix by adding overflow: auto; to the pre {} block of the embedded style sheet. Should I post a patch for this one-liner? Should I repost the whole document with just this change? |

Wrapping? No! Avoiding it is the whole point of <pre>. It does trigger a horizontal scroll bar, but for the whole page. I have now added a "overflow: auto" for <pre> in the style sheet. My Gecko-based browsers have no problem picking up on it thus triggering a per-<pre> scrollbar when needed, but my older Konqueror doesn't (not with "auto" nor with "scroll"). Can you tell me if your more recent Konqueror is more standard-compliant than mine?

As long as you can somehow view the content (i.e., the page at least loads), then this discussion becomes more irrelevant, as all this will have to be retrofitted at some point to match the design used for fetchmail's FAQ anyway. Feedback on the actual content is more relevant for now and would be much appreciated. Thanks. |

Remember, this is the original document I wrote with the Gmail Help Center in mind. I am willing to evolve it for the fetchmail FAQ. Change the Gmail-specific details (such as the URL for Thawte's root certificate bundle) and it can become generic. Although, it could be nice to document how to figure out who the server certificate issuer is in the first place, and to list a few URLs for the most important CAs (such as Thawte and Entrust). > The SSL stuff is really helpful, I had some problems setting this up > properly, but not only with gmail. This is something (configuration of the fetchmail/OpenSSL combination) I had not seen documented in one place anywhere before. This was a big part of my motivation to write this. For instance, my system comes with a /usr/share/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt file with all the root certificates one could want, but fetchmail/OpenSSL is unable to use it in this form (i.e., all in a single file). I had to figure out from various sources that: -- you need the root certificate installed alone in its own file for fetchmail's sslcertck to be able to pick it up and do its checking-job; -- you have to run c_rehash to generates the symlinks, because those are the only file names that will be looked up; -- each of these files needs to have a ".pem" extension for c_rehash to pick it up in the first place (".txt" or ".cer" won't do). > btw, AFAIK fingerprint is only useful if the cert is not signed by a CA. That's why I used the word "mitigated", as opposed to a stronger word such as "necessary". It still has some useful value in this case; see below. > The downside is that is has to be changed if the cert changes (e.g. > expired). Without CRL verification, the following scenario is possible. Remember that this is about security, so you either attempt to provide it fully or you don't. -- The old server certificate, which forever remains properly signed by its issuer CA, is revocated (and so is included in the CRL) because its associated private key was compromised. -- The legitimate server starts using a new non-compromised server certificate. -- A man-in-the-middle attacker with the compromised private key pretends to be this server. I.e., it seems from our point-of-view that it has either the IP address or maybe just the domain name of the legitimate server. -- This attacker provides the old server certificate at SSL connection establishment. This server certificate's common name (CN) matches the domain name. This server certificate still is properly signed by its issuer CA (forever). -- We didn't configure fetchmail to verify the server certificate's MD5 signature. -- Fetchmail, as SSL client, cannot do CRL verification and so then fully accepts this form of authentication by the fake server pretending to be the legitimate one. Fetchmail then proceeds to feed (i.e., reveal to) this rogue server the client authentication information using POP3's USER and PASS commands, within the SSL connection. Checking the MD5 signature will at least alert us that the server certificate has changed if we succeed in connecting at least once to the legitimate server after this change. We will still be an unaware victim if (or, as long as) we are _systematically_ man-in-the-middled with the above scenario every single time after the change. The pop.gmail.com server certificate does point to the CRL's URI: <http://crl.thawte.com/ThawteServerCA.crl> In this case, it's a 99978-octet file that is updated every day and that has a sliding 28-day validity period. Fetchmail/OpenSSL doesn't but should download it _after_ the server certificate has been validated (so we know that this URI is dependable) and check the validity of the CRL itself (signature and time period) and the absence of the server certificate in it. Having fetchmail cache the CRL somewhere in /var or in a user-specified directory would also be a possibility. |

Nice done (though I didn't check the exact details). And I didn't see any broken HTML, maybe Michelle received a broken mail. Anyway, would have been better to put the file on some web server and post the link here. But what is so special about gmail that it needs its own documentation? The SSL stuff is really helpful, I had some problems setting this up properly, but not only with gmail. btw, AFAIK fingerprint is only useful if the cert is not signed by a CA. The downside is that is has to be changed if the cert changes (e.g. expired). |

But what's the name and specific version of this

I'd like to be able to duplicate this myself.

The initial segment you quoted here is indeed
intact compared to the original.
I see nothing that's so obviously broken about
it, whether from an SGML or from an HTML point
of view.
> Many Webbrowser claims about it.
I have tested the following browsers and
they have no problem with it: Firefox 1.0.6,
Konqueror 3.1.4, links 0.4.2, and w3m 0.4.1.
If the problem is at the SGML level, can you
pinpoint a specific SGML production that is not
respected by this code?
<http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/SGML/productions.html>
<ftp://ftp.ifi.uio.no/pub/SGML/productions>
Otherwise, if it's at the HTML level, can you
pinpoint something specific in the DTD (or in
the specification itself) that is not respected
by this code?
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd>
<http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/>
> Better you update your HTML generator.
This is handwritten.
Then successfully validated as I described using
online tools.
So I'd like to understand precisely what I am
doing wrong at the standards level, since I am
doing it manually entirely myself.

Better you update your HTML generator.

The original file only has 227 lines.
What is the tool you are using that generates
this error?
Could it be this tool that's broken?
Are you using its latest version?

Hello. I wrote a web page fragment entitled "Configuring your incoming email client: fetchmail" with the intent of submitting it for inclusion on the Gmail Help Center's POP section at <http://mail.google.com/support/bin/topic.py?topic=194>. The Gmail Help Center currently lacks such an item and fetchmail configuration can be more involved than that of other email clients, especially when OpenSSL configuration is taken into full account. So far, I have simply been brushed off by the "Gmail Team" <gma...@go...> with a generic scripted answer stating that I wouldn't receive a direct human response, at the point when I hadn't even yet submitted my HTML code. This situation might change (as this is a typical level-1 response from a help-desk), but in the mean time, would you be interested in this content? The idea would be to turn it into a "How can I use fetchmail with Gmail's POP3 servers?" fetchmail FAQ answer. I am attaching my original "gmail-pop-howto.html" file to this email message for your consideration. Thanks. |

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have released a new fetchmail snapshot, 6.2.6-pre9, available from: <http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1824&release_id=6730> mirror: <http://home.pages.de/~mandree/fetchmail/> Please test, particularly if you're running a multidrop setup. Also, we still need translators, we have some old translations that need to be updated and aren't enabled by default, but new translations will also be welcome. Contact me if you're interested and fetchmail doesn't currently ship with a translation into your favorite language. Notes: This release has fairly large internal cleanups - I decided to get rid of the obsolete inet6_apps/inner_connect/ipv6-connect code rather than carrying it into a new release - the "--netsec" and "-T" options are now gone. The INET6_ENABLE code was also simplified, everything is now a "service" internally, port is converted into service, although this should be transparent. There will be some more IPv6 awareness fixes, too many places still use the hardcoded IPv4-only gethostbyname function, so we'll have one or two more releases down the road before calling out for other release candidates. Summarized changes: * The multidrop code was severely broken in several places: o a fairly fundamental RFC822 parser bug was fixed that stripped the last character of bare addresses i. e. addresses without <> angle brackets (from Delivered-To: headers, for instance), responsible for many unrecognized domains in multidrop mode. o The multidrop IP address matching code was broken and checked only the first address of the configured servername against the aliases of the domain found in the envelope. o The multidrop MX matching code was broken and didn't resolve the MX hosts into IP addresses. * The netsec and -T options are gone, corresponding code was removed. See Notes above. * The gettext code (intl/ directory) was removed from the fetchmail package and, if NLS is desired, needs to be installed separately before fetchmail is built. * The default distribution format has been switched to bzip2. * The Python script is now optimized, byte-compiled and installed into the Python site-packages directory. * Some internal code shuffling and cleanups. - -- Matthias Andree -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFC7t0hvmGDOQUufZURAkDnAJ0aWzDHscE+O+HmtA3XanZ9clumcgCff9x+ p9HVT6Ri+Qaf0SCyNgSLFfw= =V4bi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings, I deem the current fetchmail SVN code approaching official release. I rolled another snapshot, labelled as fetchmail-6.2.6-pre4. I consider this a release candidate, if nothing serious shows up in the next few days, this can become 6.3.0. da el gl ja pt_BR sk sq tr - these are the translations that have been removed from this release because they lag too far behind. They are: Danish, Greek, Galician, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Slovak, Albanian and Turkish. Please help updating these translations. If you have a test machine available, please test this version and report back if it worked for you, if it fixed your favourite 6.2.5 bugs, or if it introduced new bugs, or if you tested it without anything in particular. In case this fails to compile, please state your ./configure options, the exact error message with a few lines leading up to the error, your operating system and version and installed packages - or just gzip and attach the config.log file.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings, I have released a snapshot of the current fetchmail development code, labelled as fetchmail-6.2.6-pre3. If fixes some things since .alpha2 and was dubbed -pre3 rather than .alpha3 to help the translation project. The chances since .alpha2 summarized: - - IPv6 (--enable-inet6) fixes - - the .html documents were fixed to be conformant XHTML - - the .fetchmailrc parser was broken in .alpha1, now fixed. - - the message when .fetchids was to be deleted contained garbage, now fixed - - documentation was updated a bit If you have a test machine available, please test this version and report back if it worked for you, if it fixed your favourite 6.2.5 bugs, or if it introduced new bugs, or if you tested it without anything in particular. I am aware that some translations are not up to date, so in that case, help out with the translation project instead. In case it fails to compile, please state your ./configure option, the exact error message, your operating system and version - or just gzip and attach the config.log file.

The INSTALL file is very Linux-specific (talking about required versions of glibc, for example). I run FreeBSD 5.4 and I note: "Fetchmail has had serious grief from buggy versions of the gettext suite. If your version is older than 1.10.40, you should use the configure option --with-included-gettext'." I have package gettext-0.14.1 installed, and the one in the ports tree is currently 0.14.5. Any indication of the compatibility of those? It seems to work for me, but then again, I'm not translating into any non-English language. Separate point: it might be worth documenting how to set up certificate verification. I always have to rummage through the OpenSSL source to find out how to do this. For reference I did the following: - mkdir /etc/openssl/certs - from the openssl/certs directory: cp *.pem /etc/openssl/certs/ - in the openssl/tools directory: edit c_rehash and set $dir = "/etc/ssl" then run "perl c_rehash" - in .fetchmailrc, set option "sslcertpath /etc/ssl/certs" Regards, Brian. |
