You filed a bug against a version that works absolutely fine with the openssl
version it is supposed to work with. Hence, I'm inclined to close that bug or
downgrade it to wishlist in favor of removing/disabling sslv3 support in
fetchmail.

See above
> Fetchmail should be rebuilt to not require SSLv3.
The patch you included simply removes this feature entirely:
--- fetchmail-6.3.26/socket.c 2013-04-23 22:00:45.000000000 +0200
+++ socket.c 2015-01-14 00:29:53.412608735 +0100

- } else if(!strcasecmp("ssl3",myproto)) {
- _ctx[sock] = SSL_CTX_new(SSLv3_client_method());
} else if(!strcasecmp("tls1",myproto)) {
_ctx[sock] = SSL_CTX_new(TLSv1_client_method());
} else if (!strcasecmp("ssl23",myproto)) {
In the current git version of fetchmail, sslv3 is not negotiated by default,
unless a user explicitly requests to do so. As such I'm not sure how useful
this patch is as well.
Matthias, do you mind weighing in on this?
Thanks
Nico
