getmail4 for Debian ------------------- getmail version 4 has been completely rewritten. It is designed to closely mimic the interface and user experience of getmail version 3. the getmail rc file (configuration file) format has changed. If you are upgrading from version 3, you will need to write a new configuration file based on the contents of your old one. The new file format resembles the old in many ways. Each account you retrieve mail from will require a separate rc file, but getmail can operate with multiple rc files simultaneously if you wish to retrieve mail from multiple accounts.
