* 2014-06-11: version 1.35
- use just 'postgrey' as process name, instead of '/usr/sbin/postgrey',
because Linux tools are limited to 15 characters (#5)
- Make postgrey work with Perl 5.18 (Yasuhiro KIMURA, #4)
- updated whitelist
Do it for all packages that
* mention perl, or
* have a directory name starting with p5-*, or
* depend on a package starting with p5-
like last time, for 5.18, where this didn't lead to complaints.
Let me know if you have any this time.
a) refer 'perl' in their Makefile, or
b) have a directory name of p5-*, or
c) have any dependency on any p5-* package
Like last time, where this caused no complaints.
* 2007-09-06: version 1.31
- support CIDR-style addresses in the client whitelist (Claudio Strizzolo)
- improve logging of unresolveable hosts (Adrian von Bidder, Heiko
Schlichting)
- updated whitelist
- fix unix socket permission issues (Martin F Krafft, Adrian von Bidder,
Leos Bitto, Debian bug #376910)
- fix regexps for matching hosts in whitelists (Antonello Nocchi)
- do maintenance after the current request and not before (Clifton Royston)
* 2007-08-02: version 1.30
- implemented --listen-queue-size option (you usually don't need to set it
except for big sites).
- small fix to the 'native' syslogging implemented in 1.29
* 2007-07-23: version 1.29
- workaround for a possible crash with Sys::Syslog < 0.15 when syslog
messages were generated during syslog file rotation
- use the 'native' logging socket with Sys::Syslog >= 0.15 (Philipp Koller)
* 2007-06-21: version 1.28
- improved logging (postgrey is now more verbose, use the new --quiet
option if that bothers you)
- improved Exim support (see Debian bug #380257)
- workaround for a bug in Exchange dealing with temporary failures
(use DSN code 4.2.0 instead of the default 4.7.1)
- added 'policy-test' script for testing postgrey's performance or pre-seeding
the database
- fix logging of delayed, unresolveable clients in syslog (Andreas Metzler)
- more descriptive error message on DB failure (Adrian von Bidder)
- updated whitelist
- new homepage: http://postgrey.schweikert.ch/
the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.
pkgsrc change:
- add BUILD_DEFS.
- use INSTALL_DATA_DIR and NO_BUILD.
Chages from 1.24:
* 2006-07-17: version 1.27
- fix socket permissions with Net::Server >= 0.94 (Leos Bitto)
* 2006-07-12: version 1.26
- added support for Exim (Guy Antony Halse)
- greatly improve cleanup speed with explicit transactions (Maeda Atusi)
* 2006-06-29: version 1.25
- updated whitelist
- bugfix: --privacy was not working
- change default greylist-text not to include the number of
seconds left, since it seems that spammers are misusing it.
- added --hostname option (Maarten de Vries)
backslashes anymore. A single backslash is enough. Changed the
definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an
additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
around at either build-time or at run-time is:
USE_TOOLS+= perl # build-time
USE_TOOLS+= perl:run # run-time
Also remove some places where perl5/buildlink3.mk was being included
by a package Makefile, but all that the package wanted was the Perl
executable.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).

Compared to greylist.pl included with Postfix (2.1.1), Postgrey has the
following additional features:
- Safer database handling: Postgrey does use the logging and transaction
features of BerkeleyDB to maximize reliability.
- Automatical cleaning of the database: Entries that were last seen
more than a defined amount of time get removed automatically.
