1 Here I add changes which may be important for you. See ChangeLog for more
|
meillo@1
|
2 details and the manual pages for a more complete description
|
meillo@1
|
3 of added options.
|
meillo@1
|
4
|
meillo@1
|
5 0.2.17
|
meillo@1
|
6
|
meillo@1
|
7 - delivery warnings have been finally implemented: if delivery of a mail
|
meillo@1
|
8 fails temporarily, warning mail will be generated, informing the sender
|
meillo@1
|
9 of the problem. After some time, the mail will be handled as failing
|
meillo@1
|
10 permanently, and be bounced. New options: 'warn_intervals',
|
meillo@1
|
11 'max_defer_time' and 'warnmsg_file'.
|
meillo@1
|
12
|
meillo@1
|
13 - the message templates for failures and warnings will now be installed
|
meillo@1
|
14 into /usr/share/masqmail/tpl/, and no longer to /etc/masqmail/tpl/. The
|
meillo@1
|
15 default for the search path (options 'errmsg_file' and 'warnmsg_file'
|
meillo@1
|
16 has been changed accordingly.
|
meillo@1
|
17
|
meillo@1
|
18 - new option 'last_route'. See man 5 masqmail.route.
|
meillo@1
|
19
|
meillo@1
|
20 0.2.12
|
meillo@1
|
21 two new options have been added:
|
meillo@1
|
22 - do_pipelining will be used only in broken mail setups. Actually, I
|
meillo@1
|
23 implemented it only to test such a setup.
|
meillo@1
|
24
|
meillo@1
|
25 - helo_name for routes sets the helo_name. This may be useful for
|
meillo@1
|
26 eg. ssh tunneling, or if do_correcthelo does not work, because you are
|
meillo@1
|
27 behind a firewall.
|
meillo@1
|
28
|
meillo@1
|
29 - the old 'remote_port' option should not be used any more. Set the
|
meillo@1
|
30 port with mail_host="foo.bar.com:1234" in the route file instead.
|
meillo@1
|
31
|
meillo@1
|
32 0.2.11
|
meillo@1
|
33
|
meillo@1
|
34 - two new options have been added: do_save_envelope_to for the main
|
meillo@1
|
35 configuration and map_h_mail_followup_to_addresses for the route
|
meillo@1
|
36 files. See the man pages on purpose and usage.
|
meillo@1
|
37
|
meillo@1
|
38 - the route files can now be mode 0400, owned by root. Previous
|
meillo@1
|
39 versions had problems when sendmail was called directly by a
|
meillo@1
|
40 non-priviledged user, because the route files could not be read.
|
meillo@1
|
41
|
meillo@1
|
42 0.2.10
|
meillo@1
|
43
|
meillo@1
|
44 - this version should work on FreeBSD. At least I care now if it does not.
|
meillo@1
|
45
|
meillo@1
|
46 - masqmail now writes pid files to /var/run/, one for the smtp/queue
|
meillo@1
|
47 daemon and one for the get daemon. So you now know whom to kill ;-)
|
meillo@1
|
48
|
meillo@1
|
49 - much effort has been put into the Debian package, which now uses debconf.
|
meillo@1
|
50
|
meillo@1
|
51 0.2.7
|
meillo@1
|
52
|
meillo@1
|
53 - sorry for my reluctany in the last months...
|
meillo@1
|
54 - my email address is oku@masqmail.cx. I hope that I keep this for the rest
|
meillo@1
|
55 of my life...
|
meillo@1
|
56
|
meillo@1
|
57 0.2.6
|
meillo@1
|
58
|
meillo@1
|
59 - you can configure the prefered local delivery mechanism for each user. See
|
meillo@1
|
60 man page masqmail.conf (5), options mbox_default, mbox_users, mda_users and
|
meillo@1
|
61 maildir_users. BIT FAT NOTE: if you used an mda, set mbox_default = "mda"
|
meillo@1
|
62 (or use the mda_users option). Just setting mda is not enough any more.
|
meillo@1
|
63
|
meillo@1
|
64 - there are the allowed_return_paths and not_allowed_return_paths for the
|
meillo@1
|
65 route configurations, this enables better checking for return path addresses
|
meillo@1
|
66 than allowed_mail_locals. You can also use this to enable or disable messages
|
meillo@1
|
67 from null sender addresses (<>) using "<>".
|
meillo@1
|
68 note: this option has been there for quite a time... I just forgot to document it.
|
meillo@1
|
69
|
meillo@1
|
70 0.2.5
|
meillo@1
|
71
|
meillo@1
|
72 - simple relay checking: if you set do_relay=false in masqmail.conf, users
|
meillo@1
|
73 with a return path that is not local will get a 550 reply if they try to
|
meillo@1
|
74 deliver to a not local address. This is for users to force them to have a
|
meillo@1
|
75 proper configuration. It is _not_ to prevent spammers from using your MTA
|
meillo@1
|
76 as a relay, it can be easily forged! masqmail is not designed to be an always
|
meillo@1
|
77 accessible MTA for an internet site.
|
meillo@1
|
78
|
meillo@1
|
79 - added Maildir support. To use it, add --enable-maildir as ./configure
|
meillo@1
|
80 optiom. Currently, if enabled, all local deliveries are to Maildir
|
meillo@1
|
81 (in ~user/Maildir), and none to mailbox. This is preliminary, future versions
|
meillo@1
|
82 will be configurable (probably together with mda delivery).
|
meillo@1
|
83
|
meillo@1
|
84 0.2.4
|
meillo@1
|
85
|
meillo@1
|
86 - added -v option, this logs to stdout, so you see what happens when
|
meillo@1
|
87 calling masqmail from command line. This is not yet finished, and only
|
meillo@1
|
88 for fetching mails completed.
|
meillo@1
|
89
|
meillo@1
|
90 0.2.3
|
meillo@1
|
91
|
meillo@1
|
92 - new option lock_dir where locks will be put to. Defaults to the spool
|
meillo@1
|
93 dir with '/lock/' appended (if spool_dir is /var/spool/masqmail/, lock_dir
|
meillo@1
|
94 is /var/spool/masqmail/lock/).
|
meillo@1
|
95
|
meillo@1
|
96 - You can use the 'do_uidl_dele' option more reliably. The uidl list
|
meillo@1
|
97 will be written immediately after a message was fetched, so if you use the
|
meillo@1
|
98 do_uidl and do_uidl_dele option you can safely interrupt masqmail when it is
|
meillo@1
|
99 getting mail via pop3, and do not get the message again next time.
|
meillo@1
|
100
|
meillo@1
|
101 - there are a lot of new options for ./configure to customize masqmail
|
meillo@1
|
102 to your needs. See INSTALL.
|
meillo@1
|
103
|
meillo@1
|
104 - Uli Funcke sent a patch with the new options 'local_addresses' and
|
meillo@1
|
105 'not_local_addresses' for masqmail.conf. With these, you can declare single
|
meillo@1
|
106 email addresses as local, though they normally are not, and vice versa,
|
meillo@1
|
107 declare addresses as not local though normally they are (determined with
|
meillo@1
|
108 local_hosts). These options are not yet documented.
|
meillo@1
|
109
|
meillo@1
|
110 0.2.2
|
meillo@1
|
111 - with -go5m you can now run a get daemon, the command 'masqmail -go5m' will fetch
|
meillo@1
|
112 mail every five minutes, using the detected online configuration.
|
meillo@1
|
113
|
meillo@1
|
114 0.2.1
|
meillo@1
|
115
|
meillo@1
|
116 - there is a new option for the main conf: online_gets. Using this option,
|
meillo@1
|
117 you can retrieve mail with just calling masqmail -go, masqmail will detect
|
meillo@1
|
118 whether it is online (similar to conect_routes (which is now called
|
meillo@1
|
119 online_routes)).
|
meillo@1
|
120
|
meillo@1
|
121 0.2.0
|
meillo@1
|
122
|
meillo@1
|
123 This is the first release of he development branch of masqmail
|
meillo@1
|
124
|
meillo@1
|
125 - the default configuration is now /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf
|
meillo@1
|
126 (as it already was for the debian package). The --with-conffile
|
meillo@1
|
127 option for configure has been replaced by the --with-confdir option.
|
meillo@1
|
128
|
meillo@1
|
129 - added delivery failure notices:
|
meillo@1
|
130 o you can customize your own delivery failure report, its
|
meillo@1
|
131 default location is /etc/masqmail/tpl/failmsg.tpl
|
meillo@1
|
132 o if a delivery via a route fails permanently (the server replied with a 5xx status)
|
meillo@1
|
133 the message will be bounced, if it is bounced, no further delivery will be attempted.
|
meillo@1
|
134 This is different to previous versions, where failed messages were kept in the queue until
|
meillo@1
|
135 it was finally delivered, deleted or forever.
|
meillo@1
|
136
|
meillo@1
|
137 - there is a new online detection method: pipe. This allows you more
|
meillo@1
|
138 flexibility to detect the current online status, eg. the DHCP status on notebooks.
|
meillo@1
|
139
|
meillo@1
|
140 This method will once replace the 'mserver' option,
|
meillo@1
|
141 you can already use the program mservdetect to use it:
|
meillo@1
|
142
|
meillo@1
|
143 online_method=pipe
|
meillo@1
|
144 online_pipe="/usr/bin/mservdetect localhost 222"
|
meillo@1
|
145
|
meillo@1
|
146 instead of
|
meillo@1
|
147
|
meillo@1
|
148 online_etect=mserver
|
meillo@1
|
149 mserver_iface="localhost:222"
|
meillo@1
|
150
|
meillo@1
|
151 0.1.9
|
meillo@1
|
152
|
meillo@1
|
153 - you can use pipes in routes to implement gateways to uucp, fax, sms etc.
|
meillo@1
|
154 The setup is similar to mda transport. See man pages.
|
meillo@1
|
155
|
meillo@1
|
156 - for each connection (connect_routes), you can now give a list of
|
meillo@1
|
157 route files, which will be used in the order given. You can use the
|
meillo@1
|
158 filter rules (allowed_* and not_allowed_* rules) within each route.
|
meillo@1
|
159
|
meillo@1
|
160 0.1.8
|
meillo@1
|
161
|
meillo@1
|
162 - for pop retrieval and smtp sending you can use a wrapper for eg. ssl
|
meillo@1
|
163 tunneling. See man pages.
|
meillo@1
|
164
|
meillo@1
|
165 - a user can delete his mail from the spool with -Mrm if received
|
meillo@1
|
166 locally, and if you configure with --enable-ident and set
|
meillo@1
|
167 ident_trusted_nets also if received via smtp.
|
meillo@1
|
168
|
meillo@1
|
169 - a backslash now works to escape characters in the configuration, so
|
meillo@1
|
170 you can now use quotes inside quotes. All other characters with a
|
meillo@1
|
171 leading backslash will be converted to itself (\a becomes a, \\
|
meillo@1
|
172 becomes \).
|
meillo@1
|
173
|
meillo@1
|
174 - you can now use an mda for local mails. The mda will be called
|
meillo@1
|
175 *after* alias expansion. See documentation for more.
|
meillo@1
|
176
|
meillo@1
|
177 0.1.0
|
meillo@1
|
178 - masqmail can now retrieve mail with pop3. See the manual on how to do that.
|
meillo@1
|
179 - supports now ESMTP AUTH as a client.
|
meillo@1
|
180 - when called with -qo (without a connection name), the online status
|
meillo@1
|
181 will be checked with the configured method.
|
meillo@1
|
182
|
meillo@1
|
183 0.0.10
|
meillo@1
|
184 - there is now alias support. Give the location of the alias file (usually /etc/aliases) with eg.
|
meillo@1
|
185 alias_file = "/etc/aliases"
|
meillo@1
|
186 - delivery to pipes is now possible, but only if it appears in an alias file. Example:
|
meillo@1
|
187 pipe: |/usr/bin/command
|
meillo@1
|
188 will expand the address pipe to "|/usr/bin/command" which invokes '/usr/bin/command'
|
meillo@1
|
189 as the user and group masqmail is running as.
|
meillo@1
|
190 - entries starting with '\' in alias files will not be exanded further
|
meillo@1
|
191
|
meillo@1
|
192 - changed permissions for queue runs again: got to be root, mail or in group trusted.
|
meillo@1
|
193
|
meillo@1
|
194 - some configuration parameters can be read from files, these are
|
meillo@1
|
195 allowed_mail_locals, not_allowed_mail_locals, allowed_rcpt_domains, not_allowed_rcpt_domains,
|
meillo@1
|
196 map_return_path_addresses, map_h_from_addresses, map_h_reply_to_addresses
|
meillo@1
|
197 any entry in these list beginning with a '/' are regarded as
|
meillo@1
|
198 filenames, the content of these will be put at that location. Entries
|
meillo@1
|
199 in these files are separated by new lines. Example:
|
meillo@1
|
200 in the route file you have:
|
meillo@1
|
201 map_h_from_addresses = "/etc/masqmail/hfrom.map"
|
meillo@1
|
202 and hfrom.map contains:
|
meillo@1
|
203
|
meillo@1
|
204 john: John Smith <jsmith@mail.academic.edu>
|
meillo@1
|
205 cmiller: "Charlie Miller" <cmiller@foo.com>
|
meillo@1
|

|
meillo@1
|
217 announcements. I leave the university and begin a new job on Nov. 1st 1999

|
meillo@1
|
229
|
meillo@1
|
230 0.0.6:
|
meillo@1
|
231 - bug fix release: some MUAs (cucipop) saw the locally delivered mails
|
meillo@1
|
232 concatenated. (cucipop is not a MUA but a pop server, but it has to read the
|
meillo@1
|
233 mails).
|
meillo@1
|
234
|
meillo@1
|
235 0.0.5:

meillo@1
|
236 - fixed a bug that caused the headers to be lost under some circumstances.
