Description Michal Petrucha 2009-06-10 21:50:03 UTC 
After upgrading Python to 2.6, mail/getmail prints the following warning
on each invocation:
/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/getmailcore/baseclasses.py:27: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
  import sets
This is especially annoying when getmail is run periodically by cron.

Fix: 

Temporary workaround is to redirect getmail stdout and stderr to
/dev/null thus losing any other messages which might be of greater
importance
According to upstream changelog
http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/CHANGELOG starting from version 4.9.0
the problem is fixed, which means upgrading the port would resolve the
problem.
How-To-Repeat: portupgrade -o lang/python26 lang/python25
and then invoke getmail
