SHA2-256(fetchmail-6.5.3.tar.xz)= d74e893b78ef29ebef375ab7e726d2977140f8f1208f5905569395cbdae4c23d


Note that I have re-rolled the tarball and moved the tag and forced 
committed between 19:15 UTC and 19:30 UTC today because the 
documentation, manual page, NEWS file, commit logs accidentally 
referenced Gitlab issue #68 when they should have referenced Gitlab 
issue #69.  Now fixed.


Here are the release notes:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fetchmail-6.5.3 (released 2025-06-10, 31204 LoC):

## BUGFIXES:
* IMAP: Reinstate workaround for missing IDLE support if --idle is requested.
  This had been a long-standing feature but got broken in fetchmail 6.4.22
  (commit 616e8c70).  Thanks to Lukáš Tesař for the detailed report including
  a Git bisect that identified this faulty commit.  Fixes Gitlab issue #69.
* IMAP: Only print 'will idle after poll' if --idle is enabled
  and either offered by the server, or forced through --forceidle.
  This fixes a regression introduced in fetchmail 6.4.22 (commit 616e8c70).

## TRANSLATIONS: fetchmail's translation was updated, courtesy of:
* es:    Cristian Othón Martínez Vera [Spanish]
