Im using fetchmail on a separate server to receive my mail. I had to
deactivate fetchmails ssl fingerprint checks for my google accounts,
because the certificates are changing frequently. I don't know the
reason for these changes but as I use my google accounts only for some
mailing lists and because I'm a lazy guy I don't care much about that
and never done a research.

But please tell me if you find out the reason. :-)
