- imap: Fixed SELECT QRESYNC not to crash on mailbox close if a lot
of changes were being sent.
- pop3: Fixed a potential hang
- mbox: Creating new mailboxes should base permissions on mail root
dir, not always use 0600.
- auth: Disable auth caching entirely for master users.
Changes to the Cyrus IMAP Server since 2.4.3
* Rewrite index_upgrade to always parse the message files and
re-create cyrus.cache, to avoid upgrade upgrade failures where
cache errors occured.
* Fixed sync_reset handling of user deletions
* Fixed proc file handling of LOGIN and folder unselect
* use cyrus.expunge file (if still present) to delete bogus records
from a failed index upgrade (cause by bugs in earlier version)
* detect version 2.5 in XFER to support use with master git branch in
a murder
* made pop3 expunge much more efficient
* handle missing seen file in XFER
* Fix procmail vacation rule if no dates are set
* Fix filtering only unseen message if rule should filter all messages in
IMAP driver
Changes 1.2.4:
* Correctly escape addresses in procmail driver
* Fix procmail scripts when using composite headers
* Support some non-standard Date: headers in Sieve vacation rules
* Support composite header rules with IMAP backends
* Fix unconditional debug output with Net_Sieve earlier than 1.2.0
* Add Sieve configuration to use UTF-8 encoded folder names (for Dovecot)
Changes 1.2.3:
* Log Sieve communication with DEBUG log level.
* Fix Oracle SQL scripts.
* Add Croatian translation
* Add PostgreSQL-specific upgrade script
* Fix procmail vacation rule
* Prevent deadlock with vacation rule in maildrop driver
* Fix error if user's account only contains an INBOX
Changes 4.3.8:
* SECURITY: Properly escape user input in Fetchmail configuration.
* Fix updating POP3 indices when using mailbox caching
* Include "anyone" user when listing users in the ACL screen
* Turn DNS prefetching off when displaying untrusted message content
Changes 4.3.7:
* Fix spellcheck-on-send when using fckeditor and no errors exist
* Fix authenticate API call and synchronization when using realms
* Optimize folder tree initialization
* Add command line fetchmail script
* Workaround broken PHP number formatting with some locales
* gpglib/configure.in: Use "gpg2" if "gpg" is not found.
* sqwebmail.spec.in: Use gnugp2 as a requirement if gnupg is not
installed. Replace vixie-cron with cronie as a listed req.
(macro changes, need to recompile package using it)
Bump BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS and bump PKGREVISION of two packages using it
(other packages depending on Ruby/GLib2 are part of Ruby/Gnome2 and
already depending on the version).
* master: default_process_limit wasn't actually used anywhere,
rather the default was unlimited. Now that it is enforced, you might
notice that the default limit is too low and you need to increase it.
Dovecot logs a warning when this happens.
* mail-log plugin: Log mailbox name as virtual name rather than
physical name (e.g. namespace prefix is included in the name)
+ doveadm dump: Added imapzlib type to uncompress IMAP's
COMPRESS DEFLATE I/O traffic (e.g. from rawlog).
- IMAP: Fixed LIST-STATUS when listing subscriptions with
subscriptions=no namespaces.
- IMAP: Fixed SELECT QRESYNC not to crash on mailbox close if a lot of
changes were being sent.
- quota: Don't count virtual mailboxes in quota
- doveadm expunge didn't always actually do the physical expunging
- Fixed some index reading optimizations introduced by v2.0.5.
- LMTP proxying fixes
dovecot-sieve option (managesieve support is now included with sieve).
Create additional "dovenull" user for login processes. Add MESSAGE
with upgrade notes. Grab maintainership.
Major changes since 1.2:
* Dovecot uses two system users for internal purposes now by default:
dovenull and dovecot. You need to create the dovenull user or change
default_login_user setting.
* Global ACLs are now looked up using namespace prefixes. For example
if you previously had INBOX. namespace prefix and a global ACL for
"INBOX.Sent", it's now looked up from "INBOX.Sent" file instead of
"Sent" as before.
* Maildir: File permissions are no longer based on dovecot-shared file,
but the mailbox directory.
+ Redesigned master process. It's now more modular and there is less
code running as root.
+ Configuration supports now per-local/remote ip/network settings.
+ dsync utility does a two-way mailbox synchronization.
+ LMTP server and proxying.
+ Added mdbox (multi-dbox) mail storage backend.
+ doveadm utility can be used to do all kinds of administration
functions. Old dovecotpw and *view utilities now exist in its
subcommands.
+ imap and pop3 processes can now handle multiple connections.
+ IMAP: COMPRESS=DEFLATE is supported by imap_zlib plugin
+ director service helps NFS installations to redirect users always
to same server to avoid corruption
Changes to the Cyrus IMAP Server since 2.4.2
* Many fixes to replication edge case handling
* Added missing flags to reconstruct
* Replicate DELETED.user folders in sync_client -u (matches XFER
behaviour now)
* Make sync_client only connect after forking in rolling mode. Fixes
two things - ssl crashes due to shared resource conflicts, and also
means master will start up even if the replica is not contactable
* Fixed crash on cyr_expire and ipurge annotation based expiry
* Many XFER fixes for compatibility across versions:
* allowing XFER in from delayed_expunge mailboxes
* allowing XFER back all the way to Cyrus 2.2.12. This was
accomplished by adding logic that can generate
backwards-compatible older version indexes, and version
detection from the imapd banner.
* correctly fixing seen information for sub-mailboxes on XFER in
* Multi-target replication. Strictly this is a new feature - there
was a broken implementation in 2.4.0, which is how this snuck in to
the bugfix release. It's not super-well documented yet, but it
works by creating a separate log file for each destination
"channel", and then running one sync_client process per channel, so
replication can fall behind on one without affecting replication to
the other.
* Fixed some crashes and errors which occured when upgrading and
opening corrupted mailboxes
* Modified AFS ptloader configure options to allow building on more
modern systems
1.5.21 (2010-09-15):
+ $mail_check_recent controls whether all unread mail or only new mail
since the last mailbox visit will be reported as new
+ %D format expando for $folder_format
! $thorough_search defaults to yes
+ imap-logout-all closes all open IMAP connections
! header/body cache paths are always UTF-8
+ $wrap_headers to control outgoing message's header length
+ all text/* parts can be displayed inline without mailcap
+ send-hooks now run in batch mode; previously only send2-hooks ran.
* mailfilter.c (clrfields): Added the "noquote" option to the filter
screen that sets the donotquote autoreply option.
* rfc822/rfc822.c (rfc822_print_common_nameaddr): Prevent segfault if
address decode fails.
* Fix make check failure when libidn is not available.
* Rebuilt man pages with updated stylesheets.
* gpglib/list.c: Handle GnuPG 2 --with-colons output format changes.
* gpglib/mimegpgfork.c: GnuPG 2 wants --batch when specifying passphrase-fd.
* cone/cursesmessage.C: Strip off trailing CRs from original message
that's being replied or forwarded (shown as trailing ?s on every line
in the reply).
* tcpd/configure.in: Check if explicit linking with libgpg-error is
required.
It adds support for the Sieve language (RFC 5228) and the ManageSieve protocol
(RFC 5804) to the Dovecot Secure IMAP Server.
The Sieve language is used to specify how e-mail needs to be processed. By
writing Sieve scripts, users can customize how messages are delivered, e.g.
whether they are forwarded or stored in special folders. Unwanted messages can
be discarded or rejected, and, when the user is not available, the Sieve
interpreter can send an automated reply. Above all, the Sieve language is meant
to be simple, extensible and system independent. And, unlike most other mail
filtering script languages, it does not allow users to execute arbitrary
programs. This is particularly useful to prevent virtual users from having full
access to the mail store. The intention of the language is to make it impossible
for users to do anything more complex (and dangerous) than write simple mail
filters.
Using the ManageSieve protocol, users can upload their Sieve scripts remotely,
without needing direct filesystem access through FTP or SCP. Additionally,
aManageSieve server always makes sure that uploaded scripts are valid,
preventing compile failures at mail delivery.
This package provides Sieve support as a plugin to Dovecot's Local Delivery
Agent (LDA) and Dovecot's LMTP service. The ManageSieve protocol is provided is
an additional service, next to Dovecot's own POP3 and IMAP services.
written with security primarily in mind. Dovecot is an excellent choice for both
small and large installations. It's fast, simple to set up, requires no special
administration and it uses very little memory.
IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) is an Internet standards-track
protocol for accessing messages (mail, bboards, news, etc). The Cyrus
IMAP server differs from other IMAP server implementations in that it
is generally intended to be run on "sealed" servers, where normal users
are not permitted to log in. The mailbox database is stored in parts of
the filesystem that are private to the Cyrus IMAP system. All user
access to mail is through the IMAP, POP3, or KPOP protocols.

MAJORDOMO_HOMEDIR moves from /home/majordom to $VARBASE/majordomo, unless
overridden by the package builder
MAJORDOMO_CF is now ${PREFIX}/etc/majordomo/majordomo.cf
