To clarify: Artur, thank you very much for your patch. This vulnerability is considered negligible so your patches don't qualify for a security update at this time. If/when a more serious vulnerability is found in fetchmail, your patch can be rolled into that update and this bug's status will be adjusted. Updates are not provided for very minor issues as any update can potentially create work for administrators and users (for testing before a rollout) as well as risk regression. The vulnerability must outweigh the risks of regression and time required by administrators.
