Since this is the new default behaviour for running getmail without any arguments, this change is very likely to break many installations. This patch is the fix committed upstream as 9d15886, fast-tracked into the ports tree here instead of waiting for the bugfix release. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
