Correct.  As the original author of the SSL patches to fetchmail back in
the bad old days of ITAR and EAR here in the US, I'm well aware of that
situation.  At least now the *SWAN boys accept my patches in for IPSec
stuff and what not, so things have gotten better for me, at least.

I didn't know there was a legal list.  I'll have to check that out.
Thanks!
