Sorry, I got your email after I sent out version 4 of the patch, which
doesn't include the change you mentioned (somehow, fetchmail was stuck
:-( So, please let me know if you want me to send out another version
that includes that change. I don't want to confuse Thomas with all those
versions...

Thanks,
-Chris
