Greetings,

getmail version 3.1.0 has been released and is available for download
at the usual place:
http://www.qcc.ca/~charlesc/software/getmail-3.0/

Changes since the previous version include:

Version 3.1.0
21 February 2003

  -Rename the recipient_header directive to "envelope_recipient".  There was
  simply too much confusion about it.  Sorry, but you'll have to update
  your getmailrc file and rename this directive if you're using it.  This
  version was going to be 3.0.5, but this change necessitates bumping the
  version up to 3.1.0.
  -Include separate callable program for mbox delivery.  The program,
  getmail_mbox, is based on the mbox delivery code in getmail version
  2.3.  It assumes mboxrd format and flock locking; if other programs
  on your system expect a different subtype of mbox format or use a different
  locking method, you can corrupt your mbox file.  Use at your own risk.
  You can use this in a command delivery target from getmail
  as "|/path/to/getmail_mbox /path/to/mboxfile" .
  -In a similar vein, include separate callable program for maildir delivery.
  The program, getmail_maildir, uses the same maildir delivery code as
  getmail.  You can use this in a command delivery target from getmail
  as "|/path/to/getmail_maildir /path/to/maildir/" .  This is mostly useful
  if you want to deliver to a maildir after doing something else to the message,
  and can be used in place of safecat.
  -Add message filtering.  You can now pass messages through arbitrary
  filters before delivery; specify one or more message_filter directives,
  each of which is a command and arguments.  The filter(s) should read the
  message from stdin, write to stdout, and exit 0 for success, 99 to drop
  the message in the bitbucket, and anything else to indicate an error.
  No docs for this yet.
  -getmail could drop the final newline when delivering to Maildirs in
  some circumstances.  Thanks to Jason Mastaler for the report and testing.

Charles
