Greetings,

the previous fetchmail hosting service, berlios.de, has shut down two
months ago, and the easily-transferable data have been moved to
Sourceforge.net. This includes the web space, downloads, project
overview, Git repository, and now the mailing lists.

After a long hiatus of nearly two months, the three fetchmail mailing
lists are apparently back; I requested an import on May 21st and
apparently sourceforge.net just imported them, without closing the
support ticket yet.  Still I will post now to avoid further confusion.


YOU MAY NEED TO CHANGE LIST SETTINGS OR YOUR WORK FLOWS:

1. the list addresses now all end in @lists.sourceforge.net, no longer
in @lists.berlios.de.

2. the only settings we could preserve from former lists are whether you
were receiving a. plain messages, or b. digests, or c. no messages at all.

You may have to adjust your inbound mail filters and aliases or address
books that you use to post to the list, or file messages into folders.

You may have to re-configure personal subscriber customization.
The entry pages to do that latter are:

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fetchmail-announce
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fetchmail-devel
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fetchmail-users


QUICK MAILING LIST OVERVIEW (LIST PURPOSE)

The fetchmail-announce@ list is reserved for the project admins for
release/errata/security and other similarly important announcements, in
order to be a very low traffic list with only a few posts per year.

The fetchmail-users@ list is for general discussion of use, function,
integration with other software from the end user's perspective, support
inquiries, and thereabouts.

The fetchmail-devel@ list is for discussion of the code, development,
and integration with other software from a developer's perspective.


FURTHER SERVICES

The unmaintained Wiki contents were mostly of interest to developers and
have been dropped.

The tracker data could not yet be imported.  I downloaded the data, but
it would take major efforts to import things.

The website contents are more or less unchanged, and I need to update
them to reflect the mailing list migration.

The Git repository has been and continues to be at
<https://gitorious.org/fetchmail/> and gets manually mirrored to
<https://sourceforge.net/p/fetchmail/git/>.

If you have any concerns, troubles, thoughts, let me know, either
through the fetchmail-users@ list, or directly if it's sensitive.

Best,
Matthias
