Changes to procmail:
- SECURITY: don't do unsafe things from signal handlers:
- ignore TRAP when terminating because of a signal
- resolve the host and protocol of COMSAT when it is set
- save the absolute path form of $LASTFOLDER for the comsat
message when it is set
- only use the log buffer if it's safe
- Support LMTP for delivery mode (not enabled by default)
- Preliminary support for using mmap() for `large' messages
(this doesn't work yet)
- SWITCHRC=zero-length-file didn't always abort the current
rcfile
- A race to create the mailspool would bounce one of the
messages due to an internal error
- LC_ in KEEPENV would preserve only the first LC_foo variable
- Strip runtime linker variables (LD_*) from environment on
all platforms
- Drop duplicate and malformed environment entries
- Multiple -a options will now set $2, $3, etc
- Command line assignments to INCLUDERC and SWITCHRC no longer
have any effect
- Worked around AIX 4.3.3 xlc compiler (incorrect file-scope
variable initialization)
- When delivering to a maildir, don't force the message to end
with an empty line
- Be more paranoid about leaking information between recipients
- Unset LOCKFILE if we can't actually lock it
- Set MAILDIR to '.' if the chdir fails
- LASTFOLDER was sometimes set by '?' conditions
- Buffer the log more efficiently
- Use the `standard' format for maildir filenames and retry
on name collision
- Rename by linking to prevent lossage
Changes to lockfile:
- Include the system mailbox lockfile path in the -v output
- Resist attempts to use a setuid lockfile command
- Fix infinite loop on -l, -r, or -s flag with no value.
Documented formail's treatment of >From_ lines as continuations
of the From_ line and warned of problems caused by non-RFC822
field names like 'Old-From '
Clarified procmail's treatment of $@ and $#
Fixed a man page formatting problem
Use long, not off_t, with fseek()/ftell()
Increase our paranoia: start to use strlcat()
The default MAILDIR is now configurable separately from the
default rcfile location
Include an RPM spec file in the examples directory for automated
builds
Include and use mkinstalldirs
Called nice() when shouldn't have (this time for sure!)
* New variables:
+ vm-folder-file-precious-flag
* added CRAM-MD5 as an authentication method for IMAP.
* vm-su-do-date: interpret 2-digit years in the RFC-822 matching
case as 20XX if year starts with 0-6.
* vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: skip spaces in addition to
newlines that occur after a separator line. A digest has been
observed with that kind of deformity.
* treat enable-local-eval as we do enable-local-variables--- always
bind it to nil.
* vm: don't bind vm-auto-decode-mime-messages non-nil during
initial message preview if it is nil.
* vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: dropped (sleep-for 2). No one cares
enough about the "Need W3 to inline HTML" message to wait 2
seconds afterward.
* added menu entry to allow MIME objects to be converted to
another type and displayed. The new type is determined by
vm-mime-type-converter-alist.
* added koi8-r to vm-mime-mule-charset-to-coding-alist (XEmacs only).
* vm-pop-read-list-response: check for nil return of
vm-pop-read-response before using return value.
* vm-pop-read-stat-response: check for nil return of
vm-pop-read-response before using return value.
* vm-encode-coding-region: use unwind-protect to make sure (well
more likely) that the work buffer always gets killed if it has
been created.
* vm-decode-coding-region: use unwind-protect to make sure (well
more likely) that the work buffer always gets killed if it has
been created.
* vm-mime-convert-undisplayable-layout: put object buffer on
garbage list sooner to make rarer the situation where the
buffer never gets deleted.
* Makefile: remove function definition of vm-its-such-a-cruel-world
after it is run.
* vm-md5-region: if vm-pop-md5-program exits non-zero, signal an
error. Also if the work buffer is not at least 32 bytes long,
signal an error. This prevents naive callers from assumption all is well
and using a possibly empty string as an MD5 hash.
* vm-md5-region: check the MD5 digest returned for non-hex-digit
characters and signal an error if any are found.
* vm-get-file-buffer: use find-buffer-visiting if it is fbound.
* vm-build-threads: fixed loop that removed child messages from a
parent when better information about a child's parent is found.
Previously the loop attempted to remove the same message from
the parent over and over.
* vm-build-threads: gather thread data using References and
In-Reply-To for all messages before using the Subject header.
This helps prevent the case where References says A is the
parent of B but because of clock skew B is older than A, which
can lead to B being considered the parent of A if A and B have
the same subject and vm-thread-using-subject is non-nil.
Changes:
-fix the "blank lines output, even in quiet mode" problem which caused cron
to send email every time getmail was run. Thanks to Errol Casey for finding
the cause.
-Handle user aborting getmail better.
-Remove dead parameter from message_add_info()
-move file locking to separate functions
-add file locking around handling of oldmail file
-move regular expression objects into a dictionary
-add ability to deliver to a command (pipe delivery) like maildrop or
procmail. getmail won't do this if it's running as root.
Changes since version 5.8.8:
- More fixes for the new message-marking code from Thomas Moestl.
- Fixes for ODMR code from Matt Armstrong.
- HMH's snprintf/strncat cleanup patch.
- Fixes for Debian bugs #101792, #101950.
- Updated Danish translation by Byrial Jensen.
- ODMR fixes from Matt Armstrong <matt@lickey.com>.
- The smtphost option has been split. It is no longer overloaded to set
the list of domains to be queried in ETRN and ODMR modes. Instead, use
the `fetchdomains' option.
FOO_REQD=1.0 being converted to foo>=1.0, one can now directly specify
the dependency pattern as FOO_DEPENDS=foo>=1.0. This allows things like
JPEG_DEPENDS=jpeg-6b, or fancier expressions like for postgresql-lib.
Change existing FOO_REQD definitions in Makefiles to FOO_DEPENDS.
Changes:
-remove dead code
-fix bug in example getmailrc file. Thanks to John Gennard for spotting this.
There was an instance of an empty option value left over from before this was
an issue.

Poppy is a small perl script that allows you to perform simple tasks
on a POP3 or IMAP server. It is of most use in a "limited resources
environment" whether thats low disk space, slow internet connection,
or no graphical environment.
Poppy will individually show the mail headers along with the message's
size of each message on the mail server and then allow you to read,
delete, reply, or perform other tasks on that message.
Release note.
4.0
Supports TLS/SSL security.
'-p' option now has value '4' to permit plain-text passwords
under TLS/SSL.
Now uses a cache file to retain spool index across sessions.
This dramatically speeds up session start when no new mail has
arrived.
'-l' option added to specify TLS/SSL support.
Lots of TLS/SSL options added. See the Administrator's Guide
for details.
'-v' option added to report current version and exit.
'make install' added.
Lots of compile-time options now available at run-time. See
the Administrator's Guide for details.
Integrated poppassd into build.
And here is changes from 4.0.
Changes from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3:
----------------------------
1. Don't call SSL_shutdown unless we tried to negotiate an
SSL session. (As suggested by Kenneth Porter.)
2. Fix buffer overflow (reported by Gustavo Viscaino).
3. Fixed empty password treated as empty command (patch
submitted by Michael Smith and others).
4. Added patch by Carles Xavier Munyoz to fix erroneous
scanning for \n in getline().
5. Fix from Arvin Schnell for warnings on 64-bit systems.
6. Added patch by Clifton Royston to change error message
for nonauthfile and authfile tests.
7. Added 'uw-kludge' as synonym for 'uw-kluge'.
Changes from 4.0.1 to 4.0.2:
----------------------------
1. Added fix for XTND XMIT (sent in by Jacques Distler and
others).
2. Fixed makefile problems with poppassd compile and install
(sent in by Steven Champeon).
3. Increased maximum spool path length from 64 to 256.
4. Added more debug code when genpath() runs out of room.
5. Changed C++ style comments to C style in poppassd.c
6. Changed poppassd's UID check to be the same as Qpopper's
(which is that if BLOCK_UID is defined we use that value,
otherwise it defaults to 10).
7. Added poppassd expect strings for DEC True 64 (sent in by
Andres Henckens).
Changes from 4.0.1b1 to 4.0.1 (final):
--------------------------------------
1. Fixed typo in popper/pop_init.c if DONT_CHECK_HASH_SPOOL_DIR
defined.
Changes from 4.0 to 4.0.1b1:
----------------------------
1. Messages with lines longer than 512 characters are no longer
garbled when sent to the client.
2. Added patches from Michael C Tiernan to fix makefile problems.
changes since pl02:
20010501
Bugfix: The SMTP server's 550 in reply to DATA should be
a 554 response. And it wasn't Sendmail. Claus Assman.
Bugfix: the INSTALL.sh test for non-interactive upgrade
broke rooted installations that specify settings via the
environment. Simon Mudd.
Bugfix: mailq output is now really flushed one message at
a time. File: sendmail/sendmail.c.
20010507
Bugfix: with soft_bounce=yes, the SMTP server would log
5xx replies even though it would send 4xx replies to the
client (Phil Howard, ipal.net). File: smtpd/smtpd_check.c.
20010523
Bugfix: postsuper's temporary file detection logic needed
fixing.
Bugfix: memory leak in the LDAP client module. Alain
Thivillon, France Teaser - Groupe Firstream.
20010525
Bugfix: the SMTP and LMTP clients claimed that a queue file
needed to be delivered again (even when all recipients were
erased from the queue file) when no QUIT or RSET reply was
received (by default, this does not happen with SMTP mail
because the SMTP client does not wait for QUIT replies and
does not send RSET to deliver mail). As a result of the
same bug the LMTP client followed a dangling pointer when
sending QUIT after process idle timeout while the LMTP
server had disconnected. Files: smtp/smtp_proto.c,
lmtp/lmtp_proto.c.

number rollback.
diffs from 8.11.4 (relnote does not supply changelog between betas):
8.12.0/8.12.0 2001/??/??
*NOTICE*: The default installation of sendmail does not use
set-user-id root anymore. You need to create a new user and
a new group before installing sendmail (both called smmsp by
default). The installation process tries to install
/etc/mail/submit.cf and creates /var/spool/clientmqueue by
default. Please see sendmail/SECURITY for details.
SECURITY: Check for group and world writable forward and :include:
files. These checks can be turned off if absolutely
necessary using the DontBlameSendmail option and the new
flags:
GroupWritableForwardFile
WorldWritableForwardFile
GroupWritableIncludeFile
WorldWritableIncludeFile
Problem noted by Slawek Zak of Politechnika Warszawska,
SECURITY: Drop privileges when using address test mode. Suggested
by Michal Zalewski of the "Internet for Schools" project
(IdS).
Fixed problem of a global variable being used for a timeout jump
point where the variable could become overused for more than
one timeout concurrently. This erroneous behavior resulted in
a corrupted stack causing a core dump. The timeout is now
handled via libsm. Problem noted by Michael Shapiro,
John Beck and Carl Smith of Sun Microsystems.
If sendmail is set-group-id then that group ID is used for permission
checks (group ID of RunAsUser). This allows use of a
set-group-id sendmail binary for initial message submission
and no set-user-id root sendmail is needed. For details
see sendmail/SECURITY.
Log a warning if a non-trusted user changes the syslog label.
Based on notice from Bryan Costales of SL3D, Inc.
If sendmail is called for initial delivery, try to use submit.cf
with a fallback of sendmail.cf as configuration file. See
sendmail/SECURITY.
New configuration file option UseMSP to allow group writable queue
files if the group is the same as that of a set-group-id
sendmail binary. See sendmail/SECURITY.
The .cf file is chosen based on the operation mode. For -bm (default),
-bs, and -t it is submit.cf if it exists for all others it
is sendmail.cf (to be backward compatible). This selection
can be changed by the new option -Ac or -Am (alternative .cf
file: client or mta). See sendmail/SECURITY.
The SMTP server no longer forks on each MAIL command. The ONEX
command has been removed.
Implement SMTP PIPELINING per RFC 1854. It can be turned off
at compile time or per host (ruleset).
New option MailboxDatabase specifies the type of mailbox database
used to look up local mail recipients; the default value
is "pw", which means to use getpwnam(). New mailbox database
types can be added by adding custom code to libsm/mbdb.c.
Queue file names are now 15 characters long, rather than 14 characters
long, to accomodate envelope splitting. File systems with
a 14 character file name length limit are no longer
supported.
Recipient list used for delivery now gets internally ordered by
hostsignature (character string version of MX RR). This orders
recipients for the same MX RR's together meaning smaller
portions of the list need to be scanned (instead of the whole
list) each delivery() pass to determine piggybacking. The
significance of the change is better the larger the recipient
list. Hostsignature is now created during recipient list
creation rather than just before delivery.
Enhancements for more opportunistic piggybacking. Previous
piggybacking (called coincidental) extended to coattail
piggybacking. Rather than complete MX RR matching
(coincidental) piggybacking is done if just the lowest value
preference matches (coattail).
If sendmail receives a temporary error on a RCPT TO: command, it will
try other MX hosts if available.
DefaultAuthInfo can contain a list of mechanisms to be used for
outgoing (client-side) SMTP Authentication.
New modifier 'A' for DaemonPortOptions/ClientPortOptions to disable
AUTH (overrides 'a' modifier in DaemonPortOptions). Based
on patch from Lyndon Nerenberg of Messaging Direct.
Enable AUTH mechanism EXTERNAL if STARTTLS is used.
A new ruleset authinfo can be used to return client side
authentication information for AUTH instead of DefaultAuthInfo.
Therefore the DefaultAuthInfo option is deprecated and will be
removed in future versions.
Add new option AuthMaxBits to limit the overall encryption strength
for the security layer in SMTP AUTH (SASL). See
doc/op/op.me for details.
Introduce new STARTTLS related macros {cn_issuer}, {cn_subject},
{cert_md5} which hold the CN (common name) of the CA that
signed the presented certificate, the CN and the MD5 hash
of the presented certificate, respectively.
New ruleset try_tls to decide whether to try (as client) STARTTLS.
New ruleset srv_features to enable/disable certain features in the
server per connection. See doc/op/op.me for details.
New ruleset tls_rcpt to decide whether to send e-mail to a particular
recipient; useful to decide whether a conection is secure
enough on a per recipient basis.
New option TLSSrvOptions to modify some aspects of the server
for STARTTLS.
If no certificate has been requested, the macro {verify} has the
value "NOT".
New M=S modifier for ClientPortOptions/DaemonPortOptions to turn off
using/offering STARTTLS when delivering/receiving e-mail.
Macro expand filenames/directories for certs and keys in the .cf file.
Proposed by Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
Generate an ephemeral RSA key for a STARTTLS connection only if
really required. This change results in a noticable
performance gains on most machines. Moreover, if shared
memory is in use, reuse the key several times.
Add queue groups which can be used to group queue directories with
the same behavior together. See doc/op/op.me for details.
An envelope is assigned to a queue group based on its first recipient.
The option SplitAcrossQueueGroups instructs sendmail to
split an envelope with multiple recipients across multiple
queue groups.
If the new option FastSplit has a value greater than zero, it
suppresses the initial MX lookups on addresses when they
are sorted which may result in faster envelope splitting
if this feature is enabled. The value is also used to
restrict the number of initially started processes to
deliver the envelopes; if more envelopes are created they
are only queued up and must be taken care of by a queue run.
The check for 'enough disk space' now pays attention to which file
system each queue directory resides in.
All queue runners can be cleanly terminated via SIGTERM to parent.
New option QueueFileMode for the default permissions of queue files.
Add parallel queue runner code. Allows multiple queue runners per work
group (one or more queues in a multi-queue environment
collected together) to process the same work list at the
same time.
Option MaxQueueChildren added to limit the number of concurrently
active queue runner processes.
New option MaxRunnersPerQueue to specify the maximum number of queue
runners per queue group.
Queue member selection by substring pattern matching now allows
the pattern to be negated. For -qI, -qR and -qS it is
permissible for -q!I, -q!R and -q!S to mean remove members
of the queue that match during processing.
New -qp[time] option is similar to -qtime, except that instead of
periodically forking a child to process the queue, a single
child is forked for each queue that sleeps between queue
runs. A SIGHUP signal can be sent to restart this
persistent queue runner.
The SIGHUP signal now restarts a timed queue run process (i.e., a
sendmail process which only runs the queue at an interval:
sendmail -q15m).
New option NiceQueueRun to set the priority of queue runners.
Proposed by Thom O'Connor.
sendmail will run the queue(s) in the background when invoked with -q
unless the new -qf option or -v is used.
QueueSortOrder=Random sorts the queue randomly, which is useful if
several queue runners are started by hand to avoid contention.
QueueSortOrder=Modification sorts the queue by the modification time
of the qf file (older entries first).
Support Deliver By SMTP Service Extension (RFC 2852) which allows
a client to specify an amount of time within which an e-mail
should be delivered. New option DeliverByMin added to set the
minimum amount of time or disable the extension.
Non-printable characters (ASCII: 0-31, 127) in mailbox addresses are
not allowed unless escaped or quoted.
Add support for a generic DNS map. Based on a patch contributed
by Leif Johansson of Stockholm University, which was based on
work by Assar Westerlund of Swedish Institute of Computer
Science, Kista, and Johan Danielsson of Royal Institute of
Technology, Stockholm, Sweden.
MX records will be looked up for FallBackMXhost. To use the old
behavior (no MX lookups), put the name in square brackets.
Proposed by Thom O'Connor.
Use shared memory to store free space of filesystems that are used
for queues, if shared memory is available and if a key is set
via SharedMemoryKey. This minimizes the number of system
calls to check the available space. See doc/op/op.me for
details.
If shared memory is compiled in the option -bP can be used to print
the number of entries in the queue(s).
Enable generic mail filter API (milter). See libmilter/README
and the usual documentation for details.
Remove AutoRebuildAliases option, deprecated since 8.10.
Remove '-U' (initial user submission) command line option as
announced in 8.10.
Remove support for non-standard SMTP command XUSR. Use an MSA instead.
New macro {addr_type} which contains whether the current address is
an envelope sender or recipient address. Suggested by
Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
Two new options for host maps: -d (retransmission timeout),
-r (number of retries).
New option for LDAP maps: the -V<sep> allows you to specify a
separator such that a lookup can return both an attribute
and value separated by the given separator.
Add new operators '%', '|', '&' (modulo, binary or, binary and)
to map class arith.
If DoubleBounceAddress expands to an empty string, ``double bounces''
(errors that occur when sending an error message) are dropped.
New DontBlameSendmail options GroupReadableSASLDBFile and
GroupWritableSASLDBFile to relax requirements for sasldb files.
New DontBlameSendmail options GroupReadableKeyFile to relax
requirements for files containing secret keys. This is
necessary for the MSP if client authentification is used.
Properly handle quoted filenames for class files (to allow for
filenames with spaces).
Honor the resolver option RES_NOALIASES when canonifying hostnames.
Add macros to avoid the reuse of {if_addr} etc:
{if_name_out} hostname of interface of outgoing connection.
{if_addr_out} address of interface of outgoing connection.
{if_family_out} family of interface of outgoing connection.
The latter two are only set if the interface does not belong
to the loopback net.
Add macro {nrcpts} which holds the number of (validated) recipients.
DialDelay option applies only to mailers with flag 'Z'. Patch from
Juergen Georgi of RUS University of Stuttgart.
New Timeout.lhlo,auth,starttls options to limit the time waiting for
an answer to the LMTP LHLO, SMTP AUTH or STARTTLS command.
New Timeout.aconnect option to limit the overall waiting time for
all connections for a single delivery attempt to succeed.
Limit the rate recipients in the SMTP envelope are accepted once
a threshold number of recipients has been rejected (option
BadRcptThrottle). From Gregory A Lundberg of the WU-FTPD
Development Group.
New option DelayLA to delay connections if the load averages
exceeds the specified value. The default of 0 does not
change the previous behavior. A value greater than 0
will cause sendmail to sleep for one second on most
SMTP commands and before accepting connections if that
load average is exceeded.
Use a dynamic (instead of fixed-size) buffer for the list of
recipients that are sent during a connection to a mailer.
This also introduces a new mailer field 'r' which defines
the maximum number of recipients (defaults to 100).
Based on patch by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
Add new F=1 mailer flag to disable sending of null characters ('\0').
Add new F=2 mailer flag to disable use of ESMTP, using SMTP instead.
The deprecated [TCP] builtin mailer name is gone. Use [IPC]
instead.
IPC is no longer available as first mailer argument for [IPC]
mailers. Use TCP instead.
PH map code updated to use the new libphclient API instead of the
old libqiapi library. Contributed by Mark Roth of the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
New option DirectSubmissionModifiers to define {daemon_flags}
for direct (command line) submissions.
New M=O modifier for DaemonPortOptions to ignore the socket in
case of failures. Based on patch by Jun-ichiro itojun
Hagino of the KAME Project.
Add Disposition-Notification-To: (RFC 2298) to the list of headers
whose content is rewritten similar to Reply-To:.
Proposed by Andrzej Filip.
Use STARTTLS/AUTH=server/client for logging incoming/outgoing
STARTTLS/AUTH connections; log incoming connections at level
9 or higher. Use AUTH/STARTTLS instead of SASL/TLS for SMTP
AUTH/STARTTLS related logfile entries.
Convert unprintable characters (and backslash) into octal or C format
before logging.
Log recipients if no message is transferred but QUIT/RSET is given
(at LogLevel 9/10 or higher).
Log discarded recipients at LogLevel 10 or higher.
Do not log "did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN" for connections
in which most commands are rejected due to check_relay or
TCP Wrappers if the host tries one of those commands anyway.
Change logging format for cloned envelopes to be similar to that for
DSNs ("old id: new id: clone"). Suggested by Ulrich Windl
of the Universitat Regensburg.
Added libsm, a C library of general purpose abstractions including
assertions, tracing and debugging with named debug categories,
exception handling, malloc debugging, resource pools,
portability abstractions, and an extensible buffered I/O
package. It will at some point replace libsmutil.
See libsm/index.html for details.
Fixed most memory leaks in sendmail which were previously taken
care of by fork() and exit().
Use new sm_io*() functions in place of stdio calls. Allows for
more consistent portablity amongst different platforms
new and old (from new libsm).
Common I/O pkg means just one buffering method needed instead of two
('bf_portable' and 'bf_torek' now just 'bf').
Sfio no longer needed as SASL/TLS code uses sm_io*() API's.
Add per-recipient status information to mailq -v output.
T_ANY queries are no longer used by sendmail.
When compiling with "gcc -O -Wall" specify "-DSM_OMIT_BOGUS_WARNINGS"
too (see include/sm/cdefs.h for more info).
sendmail -d now has general support for named debug categories.
See libsm/debug.html and section 3.4 of doc/op/op.me
for details.
Eliminate the "postmaster warning" DSNs on address parsing errors
such as unbalanced angle brackets or parentheses. The DSNs
generated by this condition were illegal (not RFC conform).
Problem noted by Ulrich Windl of the Universitaet Regensburg.
The compilation options SMTP, DAEMON, and QUEUE have been removed,
i.e., the corresponding code is always compiled in now.
Log the command line in daemon/queue-run mode at LogLevel 10 and
higher. Suggested by Robert Harker of Harker Systems.
New ResolverOptions setting: WorkAroundBrokenAAAA. When
attempting to canonify a hostname, some broken nameservers
will return SERVFAIL (a temporary failure) on T_AAAA (IPv6)
lookups. If you want to excuse this behavior, use this new
flag. Suggested by Chris Foote of SE Network Access and
Mark Roth of the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign.
Free the memory allocated by getipnodeby{addr,name}(). Problem
noted by Joy Latten of IBM.
ConnectionRateThrottle limits the number of connections per second
to each daemon individually, not the overall number of
connections.
Specifying only "ldap:" as an AliasFile specification will force
sendmail to use a default alias schema as outlined in the
``USING LDAP FOR ALIASES, MAPS, and CLASSES'' section of
cf/README.
Add a new syntax for the 'F' (file class) sendmail.cf command. If
the first character after the class name is not a '/' or a
'|' and it contains an '@' (e.g., F{X}key@class:spec), the
rest of the line will be parsed as a map lookup. This
allows classes to be filled via a map lookup. See op.me
for more syntax information. Specifically, this can be
used for commands such as VIRTUSER_DOMAIN_FILE() to read
the list of domains via LDAP (see the ``USING LDAP FOR
ALIASES, MAPS, and CLASSES'' section of cf/README for an
example).
The new macro ${sendmailMTACluster} determines the LDAP cluster for
the default schema used in the above two items.
Unless DontBlameSendmail=RunProgramInUnsafeDirPath is set, log a
warning if a program being run from a mailer or file class
(e.g., F|/path/to/prog) is in an unsafe directory path.
Unless DontBlameSendmail=RunWritableProgram is set, log a warning
if a program being run from a mailer or file class
(e.g., F|/path/to/prog) is group or world writable.
Loopback interfaces (e.g., "lo0") are now probed for class {w}
hostnames. Setting DontProbeInterfaces to "loopback"
(without quotes) will disable this and return to the
pre-8.12 behavior of only probing non-loopback interfaces.
Suggested by Bryan Stansell of GNAC.
In accordance with RFC 2821 section 4.1.4, accept multiple
HELO/EHLO commands.
Multiple ClientPortOptions settings are now allowed, one for each
possible protocol family which may be used for outgoing
connections. Restrictions placed on one family only affect
outgoing connections on that particular family. Because of
this change, the ${client_flags} macro is not set until the
connection is established. Based on patch from Motonori
Nakamura of Kyoto University.
PrivacyOptions=restrictexpand instructs sendmail to drop privileges
when the -bv option is given by users who are neither root
nor the TrustedUser so users can not read private aliases,
forwards, or :include: files. It also will override the -v
(verbose) command line option.
If the M=b modifier is set in DaemonPortOptions and the interface
address can't be used for the outgoing connection, fall
back to the settings in ClientPortOptions (if set).
Problem noted by John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
New named config file rule check_data for DATA command (input:
number of recipients). Based on patch from Mark Roth of
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
Add support for ETRN queue selection per RFC 1985. The queue group
can be specified using the '#' option character. For
example, 'ETRN #queuegroup'.
If an LDAP server times out or becomes unavailable, close the
current connection and reopen to get to one of the fallback
servers. Patch from Paul Hilchey of the University of
British Columbia.
Make default error number on $#error messages 550 instead of 501
because 501 is not allowed on all commands.
The .cf file option UnsafeGroupWrites is deprecated, it should be
replaced with the settings GroupWritableForwardFileSafe
and GroupWritableIncludeFileSafe in DontBlameSendmail
if required.
The deprecated ldapx map class has been removed. Use the ldap map
class instead.
Any IPv6 addresses used in configuration should be prefixed by the
"IPv6:" tag to identify the address properly. For example,
if you want to add the IPv6 address [2002:c0a8:51d2::23f4] to
class {w}, you would need to add [IPv6:2002:c0a8:51d2::23f4].
Change the $&{opMode} macro if the operation mode changes while the
MTA is running. For example, during a queue run.
Add "use_inet6" as a new ResolverOptions flag to control the
RES_USE_INET6 resolver option. Based on patch from Rick
Nelson of IBM.
The maximum number of commands before the MTA slows down when too
many "light weight" commands have been received are now
configurable during compile time. The current values and
their defaults are:
MAXBADCOMMANDS 25 unknown commands
MAXNOOPCOMMANDS 20 NOOP, VERB, ONEX, XUSR
MAXHELOCOMMANDS 3 HELO, EHLO
MAXVRFYCOMMANDS 6 VRFY, EXPN
MAXETRNCOMMANDS 8 ETRN
Setting a value to 0 disables the check. Patch from Bryan
Costales of SL3D, Inc.
Portability:
Remove support for AIX 2, which supports only 14 character
filenames and is outdated anyway. Suggested by
Valdis Kletnieks of Virginia Tech.
Change several settings for Irix 6: remove confSBINDIR,
i.e., use default /usr/sbin, change owner/group
of man pages and user-executable to root/sys, set
optimization limit to 0 (unlimited). Based on patch
from Ayamura Kikuchi, M.D, and proposal from Kari
Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
CONFIG: Increment version number of config file to 10.
CONFIG: Add an install target and a README file in cf/cf.
CONFIG: Don't accept addresses of the form a@b@, a@b@c, etc.
CONFIG: Reject empty recipient addresses (in check_rcpt).
CONFIG: The access map uses an option of -T<TMPF> to deal with
temporary lookup failures.
CONFIG: New value for access map: SKIP, which causes the default
action to be taken by aborting the search for domain names
or IP nets.
CONFIG: check_rcpt can deal with TEMPFAIL for either recipient or
relay address as long as the other part allows the email
to get through.
CONFIG: Entries for virtusertable can make use of a third parameter
"%3" which contains "+detail" of a wildcard match, i.e., an
entry like user+*@domain. This allows handling of details by
using %1%3 as the RHS. Additionally, a "+" wildcard has been
introduced to match only non-empty details of addresses.
CONFIG: Numbers for rulesets used by MAILERs have been removed
and hence there is no required order within the MAILER
section anymore except for MAILER(`uucp') which must come
after MAILER(`smtp') if uucp-dom and uucp-uudom are used.
CONFIG: Hosts listed in the generics domain class {G}
(GENERICS_DOMAIN() and GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE()) are treated
as canonical. Suggested by Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
CONFIG: If FEATURE(`delay_checks') is used, make sure that a lookup
in the access map which returns OK or RELAY actually
terminates check_* ruleset checking.
CONFIG: New tag TLS_Rcpt: for access map to be used by ruleset
tls_rcpt, see cf/README for details.
CONFIG: Use "Spam:" as tag for lookups for FEATURE(`delay_checks')
options friends/haters instead of "To:" and enable
specification of whole domains instead of just users.
Notice: this change is not backward compatible.
Suggested by Chris Adams from HiWAAY Informations Services.
CONFIG: Allow for local extensions for most new rulesets, see
cf/README for details.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`lookupdotdomain') to lookup also .domain in
the access map. Proposed by Randall Winchester of the
University of Maryland.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`local_no_masquerade') to avoid masquerading for
the local mailer. Proposed by Ingo Brueckl of Wupper Online.
CONFIG: confRELAY_MSG/confREJECT_MSG can override the default
messages for an unauthorized relaying attempt/for access
map entries with RHS REJECT, respectively.
CONFIG: FEATURE(`always_add_domain') takes an optional argument
to specify another domain to be added instead of the local one.
Suggested by Richard H. Gumpertz of Computer Problem
Solving.
CONFIG: confAUTH_OPTIONS allows setting of Cyrus-SASL specific
options, see doc/op/op.me for details.
CONFIG: confAUTH_MAX_BITS sets the maximum encryption strength for
the security layer in SMTP AUTH (SASL).
CONFIG: If Local_localaddr resolves to $#ok, localaddr is terminated
immediately.
CONFIG: FEATURE(`enhdnsbl') is an enhanced version of dnsbl which
allows checking of the return values of the DNS lookups.
See cf/README for details.
CONFIG: FEATURE(`dnsbl') allows now to specify the behavior for
temporary lookup failures.
CONFIG: New option confDELIVER_BY_MIN to specify minimum time for
Deliver By (RFC 2852) or to turn off the extension.
CONFIG: New option confSHARED_MEMORY_KEY to set the key for shared
memory use.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`compat_check') to look up a key consisting
of the sender and the recipient address delimited by the
string "<@>", e.g., sender@sdomain<@>recipient@rdomain,
in the access map. Based on code contributed by Mathias
Koerber of Singapore Telecommunications Ltd.
CONFIG: Add EXPOSED_USER_FILE() command to allow an exposed user
file. Suggested by John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
CONFIG: Don't use MAILER-DAEMON for error messages delivered
via LMTP. Problem reported by Larry Greenfield of CMU.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`preserve_luser_host') to preserve the name of
the recipient host if LUSER_RELAY is used.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`preserve_local_plus_detail') to preserve the
+detail portion of the address when passing address to
local delivery agent. Disables alias and .forward +detail
stripping. Only use if LDA supports this.
CONFIG: Removed deprecated FEATURE(`rbl').
CONFIG: Add LDAPROUTE_EQUIVALENT() and LDAPROUTE_EQUIVALENT_FILE()
which allow you to specify 'equivalent' hosts for LDAP
Routing lookups. Equivalent hostnames are replaced by the
masquerade domain name for lookups. See cf/README for
additional details.
CONFIG: When chosing a new destination via LDAP Routing, also look
up the new routing address/host in the mailertable. Based
on patch from Don Badrak of the United States Census Bureau.
CONFIG: Provide LDAP support for the remaining database map
features. See the ``USING LDAP FOR ALIASES AND MAPS''
section of cf/README for more information.
CONFIG: Add confLDAP_CLUSTER which defines the ${sendmailMTACluster}
macro used for LDAP searches as described above in ``USING
LDAP FOR ALIASES, MAPS, AND CLASSES''.
CONFIG: confCLIENT_OPTIONS has been replaced by CLIENT_OPTIONS(),
which takes the options as argument and can be used
multiple times; see cf/README for details.
CONFIG: Add configuration macros for new options:
confBAD_RCPT_THROTTLE BadRcptThrottle
confDIRECT_SUBMISSION_MODIFIERS DirectSubmissionModifiers
confMAILBOX_DATABASE MailboxDatabase
confMAIL_SUBMISSION_QUEUE MailSubmissionQueue
confMAX_QUEUE_CHILDREN MaxQueueChildren
confMAX_RUNNERS_PER_QUEUE MaxRunnersPerQueue
confNICE_QUEUE_RUN NiceQueueRun
confQUEUE_FILE_MODE QueueFileMode
confSPLIT_ACROSS_QUEUEGROUPS SplitAcrossQueueGroups
confFAST_SPLIT FastSplit
confTLS_SRV_OPTIONS TLSSrvOptions
See above (and related documentation) for further information.
CONFIG: Add configuration variables for new timeout options:
confTO_ACONNECT Timeout.aconnect
confTO_AUTH Timeout.auth
confTO_LHLO Timeout.lhlo
confTO_STARTTLS Timeout.starttls
CONFIG: Add configuration macros for mail filter API:
confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS InputMailFilters
confMILTER_LOG_LEVEL Milter.LogLevel
confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT Milter.macros.connect
confMILTER_MACROS_HELO Milter.macros.helo
confMILTER_MACROS_ENVFROM Milter.macros.envfrom
confMILTER_MACROS_ENVRCPT Milter.macros.envrcpt
Mail filters can be defined via INPUT_MAIL_FILTER() and
MAIL_FILTER(). See libmilter/README, cf/README, and
doc/op/op.me for details.
CONFIG: Add support for accepting temporarily unresolvable domains.
See cf/README for details. Based on patch by Motonori
Nakamura of Kyoto University.
CONFIG: confDEQUOTE_OPTS can be used to specify options for the
dequote map.
CONFIG: New FEATURE(`queuegroup') to select a queue group based
on the full e-mail address or the domain of the recipient.
CONFIG: Any IPv6 addresses used in configuration should be prefixed
by the "IPv6:" tag to identify the address properly. For
example, if you want to use the IPv6 address
2002:c0a8:51d2::23f4 in the access database, you would need
to use IPv6:2002:c0a8:51d2::23f4 on the left hand side.
This affects the access database as well as the
relay-domains and local-host-names files.
CONFIG: OSTYPE(aux) has been renamed to OSTYPE(a-ux).
CONFIG: Avoid expansion of m4 keywords in SMART_HOST.
DEVTOOLS: Add new options for installation of include and library
files: confINCGRP, confINCMODE, confINCOWN, confLIBGRP,
confLIBMODE, confLIBOWN.
EDITMAP: New program for editing maps as supplement to makemap.
MAIL.LOCAL: Mail.local now uses the libsm mbdb package to look up
local mail recipients. New option -D mbdb specifies the
mailbox database type.
MAIL.LOCAL: New option "-h filename" which instructs mail.local to
deliver the mail to the named file in the user's home
directory instead of the system mail spool area. Based on
patch from Doug Hardie of the Los Angeles Free-Net.
MAILSTATS: New command line option -P which acts the same as -p but
doesn't truncate the statistics file.
MAKEMAP: Add new option -t to specify a different delimiter
instead of white space.
RMAIL: Invoke sendmail with '-G' to indicate this is a gateway
submission. Problem noted by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
Meteorological Institute.
SMRSH: Use the vendor supplied directory on FreeBSD 3.3 and later.
VACATION: Change Auto-Submitted: header value from auto-generated to
auto-replied. From Kenneth Murchison of Oceana Matrix Ltd.
VACATION: New option -d to send error/debug messages to stdout
instead of syslog.
VACATION: New option -U which prevents the attempt to lookup login
in the password file. The -f and -m options must be used
to specify the database and message file since there is no
home directory for the default settings for these options.
VACATION: Vacation now uses the libsm mbdb package to look up
local mail recipients; it reads the MailboxDatabase option
from the sendmail.cf file. New option -C cffile which
specifies the path of the sendmail.cf file.

Clean up signal handling routines to reduce the chances of heap
corruption and other potential race conditions.
Terminating and restarting the daemon may not be
instantaneous due to this change. Also, non-root users can
no longer send out-of-band signals. Problem reported by
Michal Zalewski of BindView.
If LogLevel is greater than 9 and SASL fails to negotiate an
encryption layer, avoid core dump logging the encryption
strength. Problem noted by Miroslav Zubcic of Crol.
If a server offers "AUTH=" and "AUTH " and the list of mechanisms is
different in those two lines, sendmail might not have
recognized (and used) all of the offered mechanisms.
Fix an IP address lookup problem on Solaris 2.0 - 2.3. Patch
from Kenji Miyake.
This time, really don't use the .. directory when expanding
QueueDirectory wildcards.
If a process is interrupted while closing a map, don't try to close
the same map again while exiting.
Allow local mailers (F=l) to contact remote hosts (e.g., via
LMTP). Problem noted by Norbert Klasen of the University
of Tuebingen.
If Timeout.QueueReturn was set to a value less the time it took
to write a new queue file (e.g., 0 seconds), the bounce
message would be lost. Problem noted by Lorraine L Goff of
Oklahoma State University.
Pass map argument vector into map rewriting engine for the regex
and prog map types. Problem noted by Stephen Gildea of
InTouch Systems, Inc.
When closing an LDAP map due to a temporary error, close all of the
other LDAP maps which share the original map's connection
to the LDAP server. Patch from Victor Duchovni of
Morgan Stanley.
To detect changes of NDBM aliases files check the timestamp of the
.pag file instead of the .dir file. Problem noted by Neil
Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
Don't treat temporary hesiod lookup failures as permanent. Patch
from Werner Wiethege.
If ClientPortOptions is set, make sure to create the outgoing socket
with the family set in that option. Patch from Sean Farley.
Avoid a segmentation fault trying to dereference a NULL pointer
when logging a MaxHopCount exceeded error with an empty
recipient list. Problem noted by Chris Adams of HiWAAY
Internet Services.
Fix DSN for "Too many hops" bounces. Problem noticed by Ulrich
Windl of the Universitaet Regensburg.
Fix DSN for "mail loops back to me" bounces. Problem noticed by
Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
Portability:
OpenBSD has a broken setreuid() implementation.
CONFIG: Undo change from 8.11.1: change 501 SMTP reply code back
to 553 since it is allowed by DRUMS.
CONFIG: Add OSTYPE(freebsd4) for FreeBSD 4.X.
DEVTOOLS: install.sh did not properly handle paths in the source
file name argument. Noted by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
Meteorological Institute.
DEVTOOLS: Add FAST_PID_RECYCLE to compile time options for OpenBSD
since it generates random process ids.
PRALIASES: Add back adaptive algorithm to deal with different endings
of entries in the database (with/without trailing '\0').
Patch from John Beck of Sun Microsystems.

Version 5.410 (2000/11/23)
Better detection of evil filenames. Now we check for filenames
which are suspiciously long, and a new
MIME::Filer::exorcise_filename() method is used to try and
remove the evil. Thanks to Jason Haar for the suggestion.
Version 5.409 (2000/11/12)
Added functionality to MIME::WordDecoder, including support for
plain US-ASCII.
MIME::Tools::tmpopen() made more flexible. You can now override
the tmpfile-opening behavior.
Version 5.408 (2000/11/10)
Added new Beta unmime() mechanism. See MIME::WordDecoder
for full details. Also see Understand how international
characters are represented.
Version 5.405 (2000/11/05)
Added a purge() that does what people want it to. Now, when a
parse finishes and you want to delete everything that was
created by it, you can invoke purge() on the parser's filer.
All files/directories created during the last parse should
vanish. Thanks to everyone who complained about
MIME::Entity::purge.
Version 5.404 (2000/11/04)
Added new automatic MIME-decoding of attachment filenames with
encoded (non-ASCII) characters. Hopefully this will do more
good than harm. The use of MIME::Parser::decode_headers() and
MIME::Head::decode() has been deprecated in favor of the new
MIME::Words "unmime" mechanism. Please see unmime.
Added tolerance for unquoted =?...?= in param values. This is
in violation of the RFCs, but then, so are some MUAs. Thanks to
desti for bringing this to my attention.
Fixed supposedly-bad B-encoding. Thanks to Otto Frost for
bringing this to my attention.
Version 5.316 (2000/09/21)
Increased tolerance in MIME::Parser. Now will ignore bogus POP3
"+OK" line before header, as well as bogus mailbox "From " line
(both with warnings). Thanks to Antony OSullivan (ajos1) for
suggesting this feature.
Fixed small epilogue-related bug in MIME::Entity::print_body().
Now it only outputs a final newline if the epilogue does not
end in one already. Support for checking the preamble/epilogue
in regression tests was also added. Thanks to Lars Hecking for
bringing this issue up.
Updated documentation. All module manual pages should now
direct readers to the main MIME-tools manual page.
Version 5.314 (2000/09/06)
Fixed Makefile.PL to have less-restrictive requirement for
File::Spec (0.6).
Version 5.313 (2000/09/05)
Fixed nasty bug with evil filenames. Certain evil filenames
were getting replaced by internally-generated filenames which
were just as evil... ouch! If your parser occasionally throws a
fatal exception with a "write-open" error message, then you
have this bug. Thanks to Julian Field and Antony OSullivan
(ajos1) for delivering the evidence!
Beware the doctor
who cures seasonal head cold
by killing patient
Improved naming of extracted files. If a filename is regarded
as evil, we guess that it might just be because of part
information, and attempt to find and use the final path
element.
Simplified message logging and made it more consistent. For
details, see Message-logging.
Version 5.312 (2000/09/03)
Fixed a Perl 5.7 select() incompatibility which caused "make
test" to fail. Thanks to Nick Ing-Simmons for the patch.
Version 5.311 (2000/08/16)
Blind fix for Win32 uudecoding bug. A missing binmode seems to
be the culprit here; let's see if this fixes it. Thanks to
ajos1 for finding the culprit!
The carriage return
thumbs its nose at me, laughing:
DOS I/O *still* sucks
Version 5.310 (2000/08/15)
Fixed a bug in the back-compat output_prefix() method of
MIME::Parser. Basically, output prefixes were not being set
through this mechanism. Thanks to ajos1 for the alert.
shift @_, ### "shift at-underscore"
or @_ will have
bogus "self" object
Added some backcompat methods, like parse_FH(). Thanks (and
apologies) to Alain Kotoujansky.
Added filenames-with-spaces support to MIME::Decoder::UU.
Thanks to Richard Pun for the suggestion.
Version 5.305 (2000/07/20)
Added MIME::Entity::parts_DFS as convenient way to "get all
parts". Thanks to Xavier Armengou for suggesting this method.
Removed the Alpha notice. Still a few features to tweak, but
those will be minor.
Version 5.303 (2000/07/07)
Fixed output bugs in new Filers. Scads of them: bad handling of
filename collisions, bad implementation of output_under(), bad
linking to results, POD errors, you name it. If this had gone
to CPAN, I'd have issued a factory recall. :-(
Errors, like beetles,
Multiply ferociously
In the small hours
Version 5.301 (2000/07/06)
READ ME BEFORE UPGRADING PAST THIS POINT! New
MIME::Parser::Filer class -- not fully backwards-compatible. In
response to demand for more-comprehensive file-output
strategies, I have decided that the best thing to do is to
split all the file-output logic (output_path(),
evil_filename(), etc.) into its own separate class, inheriting
from the new MIME::Parser::Filer class. If you override
any of the following in a MIME::Parser subclass, you will need
to change your code accordingly:
evil_filename
output_dir
output_filename
output_path
output_prefix
output_under
My sincere apologies for any inconvenience this will cause, but
it's ultimately for the best, and is quite likely the last
structural change to 5.x. Thanks to Tyson Ackland for all the
ideas. Incidentally, the new code also fixes a bug where
identically-named files in the same message could clobber each
other.
A message arrives:
"Here are three files, all named 'Foo'"
Only one survives. :-(
Fixed bug in MIME::Words header decoding. Underscores were not
being handled properly. Thanks to Dominique Unruh and Doru
Petrescu, who independently submitted the same fix within 2
hours of each other, after this bug has lain dormant for
months:
Two users, same bug,
same patch -- mere hours apart:
Truly, life is odd.
Removed escaping of underscore in regexps. Escaping the
underscore (\_) in regexps was sloppy and wrong (escaped
metacharacters may include anything in \w), and the newest
Perls warn about it. Thanks to David Dyck for bringing this to
my attention.
What, then, is a word?
Some letters, digits, and, yes:
Underscores as well
Added Force option to MIME::Entity's make_multipart. Thanks to
Bob Glickstein for suggesting this.
Numerous fixlets to example code. Thanks to Doru Petrescu for
these.
Added REQUIREMENTS section in docs. Long-overdue. Thanks to
Ingo Schmiegel for motivating this.
Version 5.211 (2000/06/24)
Fixed auto-uudecode bug. Parser was failing with "part did not
end with expected boundary" error when uuencoded entity was a
singlepart message (ironically, uuencoded parts of multiparts
worked fine). Thanks to Michael Mohlere for testing uudecode
and finding this.
The hurrying bee
Flies far for nectar, missing
The nearest flowers
Say ten thousand times:
Complex cases may succeed
Where simple ones fail
Parse errors now generate warnings. Parser errors now cause
warn()s to be generated if they are not turned into fatal
exceptions. This might be a little redundant, seeing as they
are available in the "results", but parser-warnings already
cause warn()s. I can always put in a "quiet" switch if people
complain.
Miscellaneous cleanup. Documentation of MIME::Parser improved
slightly, and a redundant warning was removed.
Version 5.210 (2000/06/20)
Change in "evil" filename. Made MIME::Parser's evil_filename
stricter by having it reject "path" characters: any of '/' '\'
':' '[' ']'.
Just as with beauty
The eye of the beholder
Is where "evil" lives.
Documentation fixes. Corrected a number of docs in MIME::Entity
which were obsoleted in the transition from 4.x to 5.x. Thanks
to Michael Fischer for pointing these out. For this one, a
special 5-5-5-5 Haiku of anagrams:
Documentation
in mutant code, O!
Edit -- no, CUT! [moan]
I meant to un-doc...
IO::Lines usage bug fixed. MIME::Entity was missing a "use
IO::Lines", which caused an exception when you tried to use the
body() method of MIME::Entity. Thanks to Hideyo Imazu and
Michael Fischer for pointing this out.
Bareword looks fine, but
Perl cries: "Whoa there... IO::Lines?
Never heard of it."
Version 5.209 (2000/06/10)
Autodetection of uuencode. You can now tell the parser to hunt
for uuencode inside what should be text parts. See
extract_uuencode() for full details. Beware: this is
largely untested at the moment. Special thanks to Michael
Mohlere at ADJE Webmail, who was the first -- and
most-insistent -- user to request this feature.
Faster parsing. Sped up the MIME::Decoder::NBit decoder quite a
bit by using a variant of the chunking trick I used for
MIME::Decoder::Base64. I suspect that the same trick (reading a
big chunk plus the next line to get a big block of lines) would
work with MIME::Decoder::QuotedPrint, but I don't have the time
or resources to check that right now (tested contributions
would be welcome). NBit encoding is more-conveniently done
line-by-line for now, because individual line lengths must be
checked.
Better use of core. MIME::Body::InCore is now used when you
build() an entity with the Data parameter, instead of
MIME::Body::Scalar.
More documentation on toolkit configuration.
Version 5.207 (2000/06/09)
Fixed whine() bug in MIME::Parser where the "warning" method
whine() was called as a static function instead of invoked as
an instance method. Thanks to Todd A. Bradfute for reporting
this.
A simple warning
Invokes method as function:
"Warning" makes us die
Version 5.206 (2000/06/08)
Ahem. Cough cough:
Way too many bugs
Thus, a self-imposed penance:
Write haiku for each
Fixed bug in MIME::Parser: the reader was not handling the odd
(but legal) case where a multipart boundary is followed by
linear whitespace. Thanks to Jon Agnew for reporting this with
the RFC citation.
Legal message fails
And 'round the globe, thousands cry:
READ THE RFC
Empty preambles are now handled properly by MIME::Entity when
printing: there is now no space between the header-terminator
and the initial boundary. Thanks to "sen_ml" for suggesting
this.
Nature hates vacuum
But please refrain from tossing
Newlines in the void
Started using Benchmark for benchmarking.
Version 5.205 (2000/06/06)
Added terminating newline to all parser messages, and fixed
small parser bug that was dropping parts when errors occurred
in certain places.
Version 5.203 (2000/06/05)
Brand new parser based on new (private) MIME::Parser::Reader
and (public) MIME::Parser::Results. Fast and yet simple and
very tolerant of bad MIME when desired. Message reporting needs
some muzzling.
MIME::Parser now has ignore_errors() set true by default.
Version 5.116 (2000/05/26)
Removed Tmpfile.t test, which was causing a bogus failure in
"make test". Now we require 5.004 for MIME::Parser anyway, so
we don't need it. Thanks to Jonathan Cohn for reporting this.
Version 5.115 (2000/05/24)
Fixed Ref.t bug, and documented how to remove parts from a
MIME::Entity.
Version 5.114 (2000/05/23)
Entity now uses MIME::Lite-style default suggested encoding.
More regression test have been added, and the "Size" tests in
Ref.t are skipped for text document (due to CRLF differences
between platforms).
Version 5.113 (2000/05/21)
Major speed and structural improvements to the parser. Major,
MAJOR thanks to Noel Burton-Krahn, Jeremy Gilbert, and Doru
Petrescu for all the patches, benchmarking, and Beta-testing!
Convenient new one-directory-per-message parsing mechanism. Now
through MIME::Parser method output_under(), you can tell the
parser that you want it to create a unique directory for each
message parsed, to hold the resulting parts.
Elimination of $', $` and $&. Wow... I still can't believe I
missed this. D'OH! Thanks to Noel Burton-Krahn for all his
patches.
Parser is more tolerant of weird EOL termination. Some
mailagents are can terminate lines with "\r\r\n". We're okay
with that now when we extract the header. Thanks to Joao
Fonseca for pointing this out.
Parser is tolerant of "From " lines in headers. Thanks to
Joachim Wieland, Anthony Hinsinger, Marius Stan, and numerous
others.
Parser catches syntax errors in headers. Thanks to Russell P.
Sutherland for catching this.
Parser no longer warns when subtype is undefined. Thanks to
Eric-Olivier Le Bigot for his fix.
Better integration with Mail::Internet. For example, smtpsend()
should work fine. Thanks to Michael Fischer and others for the
patch.
Miscellaneous cleanup. Thanks to Marcus Brinkmann for
additional helpful input. Thanks to Klaus Seidenfaden for good
feedback on 5.x Alpha!

Workaround: the mysql library can return null pointers
rather than zero-length strings.
20010404
Ergonomics: log additional information about the reason
why "mail for XXX loops back to myself", when the local
machine is the best MX host. File: smtp/smtp_addr.c.
20010406
Changed some noisy LDAP client warnings into optional
logging. LaMont Jones, util/dict_ldap.c.
20010411
Bugfix: the SMTP server now replies with 550 instead of
503 when it receives the DATA command without having received
a valid recipient address. This is needed for the Sendmail
client-side pipelining implementation. Problem reported by
Lutz Jaenicke. File: smtpd/smtpd.c.
Cleanup: shut up if chattr fails on Reiserfs and other file
systems that do not support the respective attributes.
Files: conf/postfix-script-{no,}sgid.
20010413
Ergonomics: Postfix applications now warn when a DB or DBM
file is out of date, and recommend to rebuild the table.
Files: util/dict_db.c, util/dict_dbm.c.
20010414
Bugfix: with a non-default inet_interfaces setting, the
master ignored host information in master.cf host:port
settings. Fix by Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino @ iijlab.net.
Files: master/master.h, master/master_ent.c.
20010426
Bugfix: the SMTP server did not parse invalid MAIL FROM or
RCPT TO addresses such as <first last <user@domain>> the
way it was supposed to do. I thought this was taken care
of years ago. File: smtpd/smtpd.c.
20010427
Bugfix: smtpd would reject mail instead of replying with
a 4xx temporary error code when, for example, an LDAP or
mysql server was unavailable. Remotely based on a fix by
Robert Kiessling @ de.easynet.net. File: smtpd/smtpd_check.c.

qmHandle is a simple perl script which allows you to view and manage the qmail
message queue.
The key features of qmHandle are:
* Freeware and open source, under the GNU General Public License
* You can read the qmail queue, like you do with the qmail-qread program.
However, the output of this program is improved over qmail-qread,
with the output of the message subjects and color capabilities
* You can print queue statistics, like qmail-qstat with color capabilities
* You can view a message in the queue
* You can remove a message from the queue
Extract from DESCR:
Deliver allows any user to write a shell script that processes all
incoming mail messages for that user. The system administrator may
also install scripts that process all messages.
The output of a script is a list of mail addresses, files and programs
that should receive the message. It has access to each message as it
is processed, so the action can be content dependent. The script may
also generate automatic replies, like the "vacation" program, or pass
along a modified version of the original message.
