The home page describes 6.2.0 as "gold" version, and 6.2.5 as "leading-edge". Normally due to the associated risk and limited labor I am guessing that we would avoid the risks and wait until the next "gold" version. However ESR is here, who seems to know something about fetchmail. =)


Eric what is your recommendation?


Go with 6.2.5, it's actually been pretty stable.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=115474 FC2 fetchmail blocker issue

I did not look into the issue, but the report indicates that it is caused by a non-upstream patch for gsspop. I understand this can be distressing to most upstream projects, but hopefully a solution can be found without necessitating backing out this patch.

Eric do you already have a Bugzilla account? Mind if we add you automatically to all new fetchmail bugs reported against Fedora Core? You or other upstream developers would keenly see trends in bugs and more quickly kill duplicate reports than us.
