The workaround of commenting out the line

CipherString = DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=2

in /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf or in a local config works.

However, this uncovered a bug in fetchmail which deserves to be set as
grave.  In fact, fetchmail should report this problem with a mail to the
user saying that connection to the server is not working, as normally
done when such problems happen, followed by a new email saying that
connection has been reestablished.

Without these notifications, the error will go unnoticed as it appears
in the logs only
