Make of that what you will. I think you could also ask Branden what he thinks of using fetchmail to get mail from master.d.o... he should have some colorful thoughts on the issue, I believe :-P Why, he might even have wounded my feelings when he made those comments in IRC, were I already NOT using fetchmail to get mail from master.d.o ;-) Fetchmail is not the best tool for dealing with the Debian developer mail accounts, plain and simple. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
