That doesn't mean they've included fixes for the other bugs I've worked
on for 6.3.X, or that we should be supporting it, though I don't recall
interval bug fixes offhand either.

OTOH, Rob MacGregor does the voluntary (and usually excellent) support
work on the lists, if he has no desire to keep an eye on 6.2.5
compatibility, that's more than just fine with me.

Note however that Debian has its own system of starting fetchmail (of
which I know little WRT the 6.2.X days).
