amavisd-new is an interface between message transfer agent (MTA) and
one or more content checkers, e.g. virus scanners, SpamAssassin, etc.
It is a performance-enhanced and feature-enriched version of amavisd
(which in turn is a daemonized version of AMaViS or amavis-perl).
amavisd-new is normally positioned at or near a central mailer, not
necessarily where user's mailboxes and final delivery takes place. If
you are looking for fully per-user configurable and/or low-message-rate
solution to be placed at the final stage of mail delivery (e.g. called
from procmail), there may be other solutions more appropriate for your
needs.

-if the connection failed in a certain way, getmail could forget which
messages it had already retrieved, and therefore retrieve them again when
the next successful connection occurred. Fixed. Thanks: Wim Uyttebroek.
--add win32 executable installer as third download option.
other to facilitate easier updates of the mail/mutt package when the next
mutt is released. The changes to mail/mutt include:
* convert mail/mutt to use bsd.options.mk
* remove unnecessary patches and use subst.mk instead

- [923158] made installation of Sendmail::Milter layer optional
- [925579] added support for experimental setsender() operation
- fixed usage of max_interpreters and max_requests values
(they were being ignored previously)
- allowed for named configuration variables to prefork_dispatcher()
- [1002122] fixed symbol table to return symbols from earlier
callbacks as appropriate (reported by <s.barnes@uni-koeln.de>)
- [1003308] changed "EOF in stream" handling to exit as if a normal
SMFIC_CLOSE had been received from the MTA
- fixed warning in Context.pm wrt <= on an undefined value
- [1003307] fixed ithread_dispatcher share() usage and warning
appearing when $@ was defined but empty
- [1003304] changed SIGINFO/SIGUSR1 handler to use warn() rather
than raw prints to STDERR (requested by <andrewr@iagu.net>)
- [925577, 1003351] added support for quarantine(), progress(),
and shutdown() (Sendmail 8.13 special case)
- moved SMFIF_* constants not in the standard Sendmail::Milter
into only Sendmail::PMilter
Changes:
- Announce ourselves as 'clamsmtp' in banner to prevent loop warnings
- Fixed endless loop that occurred on failure to connect out

- Prints version number when run with -v
* Remove 'g', 'r', and 'f' from bogofilter's OPTIONS list as
there's only one scoring algorithm.
* Fixed db_init/db_cleanup problems encountered with multiple
wordlists and concurrent data stores.
* Bugfix: '%I' is now really the Message-ID,
* Feature: '%Q' is now the queue ID
* Use an explicit inputs/outputs directory list to avoid shipping test
files in those directories.
* Miscellaneous cleanups, removed 'degen' code remainders.

'%A' is now the message's IP address.
'%I' is now the message's ID.
* Remove initialize() function in bogoconfig.c and use
lexer_init() in lexer.c, which provides same functionality.
* Warn on invalid options, rather than exit.
-add additional error handler for certain network errors with POP3-over-SSL
connections. Thanks: Frank Benkstein.

is provided.
- corrected the folding of lines: folds start only with one blank
according to rfc2822.

as provided by Mail::Util::mailaddress(). Please explicitly set
MAILADDRESS.
- Mail::Address->format should quote phrases with weird character.
- reported confusing error message when no MailerType was specified.

getmail gracefully continue; fixed. Thanks: David.
-documentatation updates; fix two typos and add to the section on using
ClamAV with getmail.
-changes to my release process; the current version's URL will not change
when a new version is released. See, I try to help others, even when they
don't do the same...
Changes:
[11.0] released 7/30/04
* IMAP support has been added. It should considered to be in beta state
now, but should not have any disturbing effects on other code unless
it is actually used. (So the version jump does not require vendors to
continue to ship older releases.)
To get started with IMAP, see the manual page for the 'account',
'folder', and 'imap' commands, and for the 'folder' variable, as
well as the EXAMPLES and NOTES sections.
* Support for SMTP AUTH LOGIN was added (contributed by John Fawcett).
* It is now possible to encrypt SMTP with SSL/TLS, using the STARTTLS
method as well as with the SMTPS variant.
* New 'account' command to set groups of variables.
* Line and column limits (used e.g. for the header summary) are updated
when the size of the terminal is changed (handling SIGWINCH).
* If saving an outgoing message to the folder given in the 'record'
variable fails, the message is not sent but put in 'dead.letter'
instead. This rarely happens with local record folders, but is of
concern if 'record' refers to an IMAP mailbox.
* For addresses specified with the ~b, ~c, ~h, and ~t tilde escapes
or by the 'editheaders' method, if a comma, parenthesis, angle bracket,
or quoting character appears, only the comma is accepted as an address
separator. Otherwise, whitespace separates addresses as elsewhere. This
allows the insertion of comments in recipient addresses and more closely
matches the behavior of System V mailx. (Thanks to Ryan Lovett and Hilko
Bengen.)
* An internal version of getopt() is now used to properly work around
system defects such as the option reordering on GNU libc based
systems. If you really prefer the libc version, remove getopt.o from
the list of objects in the Makefile. (Note that nail already worked
around the glibc problem, so unless _your_ patches changed its
behavior, use the new internal getopt() to remain compatible.)
* The undocumented facility to pass sendmail options on the command
line of nail has been removed because it was not compatible with
POSIX and System V. If you need to pass options to sendmail, create
a shell script which invokes it appropriately and let the nail
variable 'sendmail' point to its location.
* Fixed the text of some usage messages (thanks to Christian Reiber).
and provides NetBSD-style rc.d scripts and an example mailer.conf.
The rc.d scripts used to belong directly to the qmail package. Changes
made during the move here:
* Rename qmailfoo_softlimit to the more accurate qmailfoo_datalimit.
* Parameterize logging as qmailfoo_logcmd (default: splogger).
* Run all sploggers (not just qmail-send's) as user qmaill, rather than root.
* Replace "@CAT@" with "@HEAD@ -1" for files expected to contain one line.
packages. They now simply compile and install qmail and its
prerequisites. (The add-on scripts and config files will be revivified
as a separate qmail-run package. Thus, QMAIL_AUTOCONFIG is no longer
needed.)
The user is notified at install time that one popular, well-regarded
way to enable qmail is to follow the directions in "Life with
qmail", and that another way is to install the qmail-run package.
These changes, based on discussion with Charles Cazabon, are intended
to make life easier for the helpful people on the qmail mailing
list by clearly marking custom add-ons as such.
Other changes:
Since netqmail is a tarball containing the qmail tarball plus the
netqmail bits, we can use it for both packages and share more logic
between the two packages: MASTER_SITES, DISTINFO_FILE, WRKSRC, and
the post-extract target.
Now that there's one place to put the distinfo, add Eben Pratt's
simple patch to build and install on Mac OS X 10.3 (the patch is
not applied on other OSes).
Bump PKGREVISION of both packages.
differences from previous versions:
getmail version 4 has been completely rewritten. It is designed to
closely mimic the interface and user experience of getmail version
3, but the new architecture necessitates some differences you will
notice:
* the getmail rc file (configuration file) format has changed. If
you are upgrading from version 3, you will need to write a new
configuration file based on the contents of your old one. The
new file format resembles the old in many ways. Each account you
retrieve mail from will require a separate rc file, but getmail
can operate with multiple rc files simultaneously if you wish to
retrieve mail from multiple accounts.
* support for protocols other than POP3/SPDS. IMAP support is now
included, and other protocols can be added with relative ease.
* support for SSL-encrypted protocols. The included POP3 and IMAP
retriever classes are complemented by SSL-enabled counterparts.
* messages can be filtered or annotated by external programs like
spam filters and anti-Microsoft-worm programs. Filters can cause
messages to be dropped completely.
* a flexible, extensible architecture. Additional classes for
handling new mail protocols, filter types, or destination mailstores
can be added without needing to modify the main script at all.
Feel free to contact me if you need a custom retriever, filter,
or destination class written, or if you want commercial support
for getmail.
0.99.10.9 2004-07-31 Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>
- MySQL compiling got broken in last release
- More PostgreSQL reconnection fixing
0.99.10.8 2004-07-30 Timo Sirainen <tss at iki.fi>
+ LDAP support compiles now with Solaris LDAP library
- IMAP BODY and BODYSTRUCTURE replies were wrong for MIME parts which
didn't contain Content-Type header.
- MySQL and PostgreSQL auth didn't reconnect if connection was lost
to SQL server
- Linking fixes for dovecot-auth with some systems
- Last fix for disconnecting client when downloading mail longer than
30 seconds actually made it never disconnect client. Now it works
properly: disconnect when client hasn't read _any_ data for 30
seconds.
- Convert to use bsd.options.mk.
- The virus database has been moved to ${VARBASE}/clamav.
* freshclam/clamd: fix crash on PPC when LogFile was enabled together
with LogSyslog
* configure: improve gethostbyname_r check; cleanups
* clamav-milter: Use GETHOSTBYNAME_R_6
Better load balancing if max_children = 0
Fixed warning message when building on FreeBSD4.9
Closed (small) memory leak
Fix crash when the 1st remote service goes down
Only use gethostbyname_r on LINUX for now
Improved load balancing a bit
* clamdscan: fix stdin scanning in local mode
* clamav-milter: %v in the template file handling is now replaced
only with the virus name, no "stream:" appears
* libclamav/mbox.c: Fix crash when debugging on SPARC
* libclamav/message.c: Fix occasional crash when scanning
multipart within multipart e-mails
processes instead of saving values in shell variables and then iterating
over them. Using pipes is more scalable and is just as easy to read, so
it's a net win.
