Gotmail 0.8.7.1 Released!

December 11, 2005 - The Gotmail project, a perl script which downloads mail 
from hotmail.com without user interaction, released version 0.8.7.1 today. 

The primary feature of this release is the a rewrite of the debug output and
compliance of the script with common Unix-style applications where options 
from the commandline do one thing well. Because of these changes, the 
community asks for people to please test this new script heavier than normal,
and most definitely before its put into heavy use.

The Gotmail development community thrives off of users of the script, and ask 
for people to visit http://gotmail.sf.net/ to test out the latest version,
file bug reports, and join the development process.
