I generated 4096 bit dh_key: openssl dhparam -out /path/to/dh.pem 4096 then I modified a configuration file of dovecot as follows: ssl_dh=</path/to/dh.pem then I restarted dovecot. Now fetch mail works fine after I upgraded openssl 1.1.1b-1 . I thinkf if this 4096 bit key is critical for fetchmail to work fine under openssl 1.1.1b-1, it should be documented somewhere like NEWS.Denian of openssl etc. Thanks for your valuable advice.
