RE: [PATCH] Fetchmail for v2.2

Noel,

Thanks for this. I do not have full CVS access so can only see the HEAD and
cannot directly check what is elsewhere (unless I'm missing something).
However, I downloaded and built from the v2.2.0a10 source distribution and
that seems fine.

As it happens, I'm currently working on the documentation for fetchmail
which will include some sample configuration files. I am planning to add a
'samples' sub-directory to 'config' and a sub-directory of that named
'fetchmail'. This will provide a clear separation between active
configuration files and samples for particular aspects of the configuration.
If anyone thinks another arrangement would be better, please let me know.

Cheers,

-- Steve
