So far so good.

Previously I had a poll line like:
poll ISPP-FQDN proto POP3:
     user luke here is lukekendall there with password not-this

Changed it to:
poll  ISPP-FQDN proto pop3 uidl no dns
  user luke here is lukekendall there with password not-this,either
  ssl sslcertpath /etc/ssl/certs
  sslfingerprint "E1:...:41"

Determining the fingerprint was slightly difficult, since it seems I can't run 
fetchmail as root: had to copy the
/etc/fetchmailrc to me, and change me to be the owner.

Anyway, I'll leave this running for a day or two, and if it's all good, I'll 
let you know (and then
upgrade to 6.3.22, manually).

PS:

I removed the set logfile /var/log/fetchmail.log from /etc/fetchmailrc

I think the warning is ambiguous: in hindsight, I can see that:
"fetchmail: Warning: syslog and logfile are set. Check both for logs!"
means that if you can't find errors in one of those files, check the other.
I read it to mean that log messages would go to both.
Given that --syslog overrides "set logfile", would it be clearer if the warning 
said:
"fetchmail: Warning: syslog and logfile are set: only syslog will be used."


Thanks, Matthias.
