I installed Beowulf over Ascii. For mail I rely solely on mutt and
exim4. I was unable to get email running with Beowulf even though the
confifuration remains the same.

I now suspect my problem was the upgrade to fetchmail 6.4.0, which
seems to have made a change that breaks e-mail. It seemss that the new
fetchmail looks for an SSL certificate, and finding none breaks the
connection.

I may have worked around this intering the line

sslproto "

into .fetchmailrc. Is this correct? I worry that it is not because I
found no discussion on line
