Private mail to me, saying that getmail is better than fetchmail because
it wouldn't lose mail or cause bogus bounces in its default
configuration. He was unable to give specifics though when probed, but
liked to rant against fetchmail. Personally I found this the best he
said in the email exchange: "You're free not to use getmail." And I
don't. :)
