getmail is intended as a simple, secure, and
reliable replacement for fetchmail. It retrieves
email (either all messages, or only unread
messages) from one or more POP3, SPDS, or IMAP4
servers (with or without SSL) for one or more
email accounts, and reliably delivers into
qmail-style Maildirs, mboxrd files, or through
external MDAs (command deliveries) specified on a
per-account basis. getmail also has excellent
support for domain (multidrop) mailboxes,
including delivering messages to different users
or destinations based on the envelope recipient
address.

Changes:
The changelog has been converted to UTF-8 encoding. Email addresses, etc. have been updated, and the domain for mailing lists has changed to lists.pyropus.ca. A FAQ has been added about memory errors on OS X. The log message level for stderr output of the destination is dropped if ignore_stderr is set, just like for filter.
