Greetings,

I have released the final 6.3.1 release candidate,
dubbed fetchmail-6.3.1-rc1. It is available from
http://home.pages.de/~mandree/fetchmail/

Unless regressions since 6.3.0 are found, this will be released
as 6.3.1 somewhen next week.

The French translation lacks six messages I cannot translate properly by
myself, help will be appreciated (just send the missing msgid/msgstr
pairs to me either on- or off-list).

Please follow up to <fet...@li...> only.

Note that the fetchmail-friends@ list is supposed to be discontinued,
please resubscribe at BerliOS, for information, please see
<https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/fetchmail-users>

These are the changes since 6.3.0:

  is deprecated and may be removed from a future release. (MA)
