Package: fetchmail Version: 6.2.5-13 Severity: important
Fetchmail stop completely when it encounters an email with an underscore in the domain name. That is, it does not just skip the message - it fails to continue fetching other mails from this and other mail hosts. A spam mail resulted in such a DOS on my box with the following "fatal" error: gethostbyname failed for ip7133120 fetchmail: SMTP-error: 501 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: malformed address: _tunis.intl.tn> may not follow <[EMAIL PROTECTED] When I deleted the offending email from the POP3 server, fetchmail served me again Claus -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (100, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.11 Locale: LANG=da_DK, LC_CTYPE=da_DK (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
