Package: fetchmail
Version: 6.3.7-1
Followup-For: Bug #136398

Hi! after upgrading fetchmail today. Fetchmail started and received
thousands of old emails. In /var/lib/fetchmail/ I found the old
.fetchmail-UIDL-cache together with a smaller .fetchids file. I could
fix it by

$cat .fetchmail-UIDL-cache >.fetchids

Still my inbox has been a really BIG MESS. Maybe you could take care
that the old uidl cache file gets migrated?


Best Regards, 

Christopher Zimmermann
