meillo@1: Here I add changes which may be important for you. See ChangeLog for more meillo@1: details and the manual pages for a more complete description meillo@1: of added options. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.17 meillo@1: meillo@1: - delivery warnings have been finally implemented: if delivery of a mail meillo@1: fails temporarily, warning mail will be generated, informing the sender meillo@1: of the problem. After some time, the mail will be handled as failing meillo@1: permanently, and be bounced. New options: 'warn_intervals', meillo@1: 'max_defer_time' and 'warnmsg_file'. meillo@1: meillo@1: - the message templates for failures and warnings will now be installed meillo@1: into /usr/share/masqmail/tpl/, and no longer to /etc/masqmail/tpl/. The meillo@1: default for the search path (options 'errmsg_file' and 'warnmsg_file' meillo@1: has been changed accordingly. meillo@1: meillo@1: - new option 'last_route'. See man 5 masqmail.route. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.12 meillo@1: two new options have been added: meillo@1: - do_pipelining will be used only in broken mail setups. Actually, I meillo@1: implemented it only to test such a setup. meillo@1: meillo@1: - helo_name for routes sets the helo_name. This may be useful for meillo@1: eg. ssh tunneling, or if do_correcthelo does not work, because you are meillo@1: behind a firewall. meillo@1: meillo@1: - the old 'remote_port' option should not be used any more. Set the meillo@1: port with mail_host="foo.bar.com:1234" in the route file instead. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.11 meillo@1: meillo@1: - two new options have been added: do_save_envelope_to for the main meillo@1: configuration and map_h_mail_followup_to_addresses for the route meillo@1: files. See the man pages on purpose and usage. meillo@1: meillo@1: - the route files can now be mode 0400, owned by root. Previous meillo@1: versions had problems when sendmail was called directly by a meillo@1: non-priviledged user, because the route files could not be read. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.10 meillo@1: meillo@1: - this version should work on FreeBSD. At least I care now if it does not. meillo@1: meillo@1: - masqmail now writes pid files to /var/run/, one for the smtp/queue meillo@1: daemon and one for the get daemon. So you now know whom to kill ;-) meillo@1: meillo@1: - much effort has been put into the Debian package, which now uses debconf. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.7 meillo@1: meillo@1: - sorry for my reluctany in the last months... meillo@1: - my email address is oku@masqmail.cx. I hope that I keep this for the rest meillo@1: of my life... meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.6 meillo@1: meillo@1: - you can configure the prefered local delivery mechanism for each user. See meillo@1: man page masqmail.conf (5), options mbox_default, mbox_users, mda_users and meillo@1: maildir_users. BIT FAT NOTE: if you used an mda, set mbox_default = "mda" meillo@1: (or use the mda_users option). Just setting mda is not enough any more. meillo@1: meillo@1: - there are the allowed_return_paths and not_allowed_return_paths for the meillo@1: route configurations, this enables better checking for return path addresses meillo@1: than allowed_mail_locals. You can also use this to enable or disable messages meillo@1: from null sender addresses (<>) using "<>". meillo@1: note: this option has been there for quite a time... I just forgot to document it. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.5 meillo@1: meillo@1: - simple relay checking: if you set do_relay=false in masqmail.conf, users meillo@1: with a return path that is not local will get a 550 reply if they try to meillo@1: deliver to a not local address. This is for users to force them to have a meillo@1: proper configuration. It is _not_ to prevent spammers from using your MTA meillo@1: as a relay, it can be easily forged! masqmail is not designed to be an always meillo@1: accessible MTA for an internet site. meillo@1: meillo@1: - added Maildir support. To use it, add --enable-maildir as ./configure meillo@1: optiom. Currently, if enabled, all local deliveries are to Maildir meillo@1: (in ~user/Maildir), and none to mailbox. This is preliminary, future versions meillo@1: will be configurable (probably together with mda delivery). meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.4 meillo@1: meillo@1: - added -v option, this logs to stdout, so you see what happens when meillo@1: calling masqmail from command line. This is not yet finished, and only meillo@1: for fetching mails completed. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.3 meillo@1: meillo@1: - new option lock_dir where locks will be put to. Defaults to the spool meillo@1: dir with '/lock/' appended (if spool_dir is /var/spool/masqmail/, lock_dir meillo@1: is /var/spool/masqmail/lock/). meillo@1: meillo@1: - You can use the 'do_uidl_dele' option more reliably. The uidl list meillo@1: will be written immediately after a message was fetched, so if you use the meillo@1: do_uidl and do_uidl_dele option you can safely interrupt masqmail when it is meillo@1: getting mail via pop3, and do not get the message again next time. meillo@1: meillo@1: - there are a lot of new options for ./configure to customize masqmail meillo@1: to your needs. See INSTALL. meillo@1: meillo@1: - Uli Funcke sent a patch with the new options 'local_addresses' and meillo@1: 'not_local_addresses' for masqmail.conf. With these, you can declare single meillo@1: email addresses as local, though they normally are not, and vice versa, meillo@1: declare addresses as not local though normally they are (determined with meillo@1: local_hosts). These options are not yet documented. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.2 meillo@1: - with -go5m you can now run a get daemon, the command 'masqmail -go5m' will fetch meillo@1: mail every five minutes, using the detected online configuration. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.1 meillo@1: meillo@1: - there is a new option for the main conf: online_gets. Using this option, meillo@1: you can retrieve mail with just calling masqmail -go, masqmail will detect meillo@1: whether it is online (similar to conect_routes (which is now called meillo@1: online_routes)). meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.2.0 meillo@1: meillo@1: This is the first release of he development branch of masqmail meillo@1: meillo@1: - the default configuration is now /etc/masqmail/masqmail.conf meillo@1: (as it already was for the debian package). The --with-conffile meillo@1: option for configure has been replaced by the --with-confdir option. meillo@1: meillo@1: - added delivery failure notices: meillo@1: o you can customize your own delivery failure report, its meillo@1: default location is /etc/masqmail/tpl/failmsg.tpl meillo@1: o if a delivery via a route fails permanently (the server replied with a 5xx status) meillo@1: the message will be bounced, if it is bounced, no further delivery will be attempted. meillo@1: This is different to previous versions, where failed messages were kept in the queue until meillo@1: it was finally delivered, deleted or forever. meillo@1: meillo@1: - there is a new online detection method: pipe. This allows you more meillo@1: flexibility to detect the current online status, eg. the DHCP status on notebooks. meillo@1: meillo@1: This method will once replace the 'mserver' option, meillo@1: you can already use the program mservdetect to use it: meillo@1: meillo@1: online_method=pipe meillo@1: online_pipe="/usr/bin/mservdetect localhost 222" meillo@1: meillo@1: instead of meillo@1: meillo@1: online_etect=mserver meillo@1: mserver_iface="localhost:222" meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.1.9 meillo@1: meillo@1: - you can use pipes in routes to implement gateways to uucp, fax, sms etc. meillo@1: The setup is similar to mda transport. See man pages. meillo@1: meillo@1: - for each connection (connect_routes), you can now give a list of meillo@1: route files, which will be used in the order given. You can use the meillo@1: filter rules (allowed_* and not_allowed_* rules) within each route. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.1.8 meillo@1: meillo@1: - for pop retrieval and smtp sending you can use a wrapper for eg. ssl meillo@1: tunneling. See man pages. meillo@1: meillo@1: - a user can delete his mail from the spool with -Mrm if received meillo@1: locally, and if you configure with --enable-ident and set meillo@1: ident_trusted_nets also if received via smtp. meillo@1: meillo@1: - a backslash now works to escape characters in the configuration, so meillo@1: you can now use quotes inside quotes. All other characters with a meillo@1: leading backslash will be converted to itself (\a becomes a, \\ meillo@1: becomes \). meillo@1: meillo@1: - you can now use an mda for local mails. The mda will be called meillo@1: *after* alias expansion. See documentation for more. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.1.0 meillo@1: - masqmail can now retrieve mail with pop3. See the manual on how to do that. meillo@1: - supports now ESMTP AUTH as a client. meillo@1: - when called with -qo (without a connection name), the online status meillo@1: will be checked with the configured method. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.10 meillo@1: - there is now alias support. Give the location of the alias file (usually /etc/aliases) with eg. meillo@1: alias_file = "/etc/aliases" meillo@1: - delivery to pipes is now possible, but only if it appears in an alias file. Example: meillo@1: pipe: |/usr/bin/command meillo@1: will expand the address pipe to "|/usr/bin/command" which invokes '/usr/bin/command' meillo@1: as the user and group masqmail is running as. meillo@1: - entries starting with '\' in alias files will not be exanded further meillo@1: meillo@1: - changed permissions for queue runs again: got to be root, mail or in group trusted. meillo@1: meillo@1: - some configuration parameters can be read from files, these are meillo@1: allowed_mail_locals, not_allowed_mail_locals, allowed_rcpt_domains, not_allowed_rcpt_domains, meillo@1: map_return_path_addresses, map_h_from_addresses, map_h_reply_to_addresses meillo@1: any entry in these list beginning with a '/' are regarded as meillo@1: filenames, the content of these will be put at that location. Entries meillo@1: in these files are separated by new lines. Example: meillo@1: in the route file you have: meillo@1: map_h_from_addresses = "/etc/masqmail/hfrom.map" meillo@1: and hfrom.map contains: meillo@1: meillo@1: john: John Smith meillo@1: cmiller: "Charlie Miller" meillo@1: meillo@1: UPDATE (Jan 2000): The new home location of MasqMail is meillo@1: http://www.innominate.org/~oku/masqmail/, the new email adress of the meillo@1: author is Oliver Kurth . meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.9 meillo@1: - see ChangeLog. meillo@1: meillo@1: NOTE: The home location of MasqMail at meillo@1: http://merlin.uni-sw.gwdg.de/~okurth/masqmail/ is uncertain from the meillo@1: beginning of Nov. 1999! See http://www.freshmeat.net for new meillo@1: announcements. I leave the university and begin a new job on Nov. 1st 1999 meillo@1: in Berlin :-). meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.8: meillo@1: - there is now a FAQ page. See docs/faq.html. meillo@1: - added allowed_rcpt_domains option for routes. meillo@1: - added allowed_mail_locals and not_allowed_mail_locals options for routes. meillo@1: - mailq now gives information about the time mails spent in the queue, meillo@1: the message size and the received host. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.7: meillo@1: -bug fix release: for statements in two adjacent lines, the second was not recognized. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.6: meillo@1: - bug fix release: some MUAs (cucipop) saw the locally delivered mails meillo@1: concatenated. (cucipop is not a MUA but a pop server, but it has to read the meillo@1: mails). meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.5: meillo@1: - fixed a bug that caused the headers to be lost under some circumstances. meillo@1: - added expand_h_sender_domain option for routes. meillo@1: - rewrote the libresolv part in configure. Should work better now. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.4: meillo@1: - MM should now recognize whether libresolv should be linked. meillo@1: - added --with-logdir=LOGDIR and --with-spooldir=SPOOLDIR to set directories. meillo@1: These will be created if not already existent. meillo@1: - added --with-user=USER, --with-group=GROUP options to set user and group id meillo@1: for MasqMail. meillo@1: meillo@1: 0.0.3: meillo@1: - MasqMail can now deliver mails that are received at online meillo@1: time immediately to the internet. See the options detect_online, meillo@1: mserver_iface and online_file. meillo@1: - You can define a route configuration for the local net. See option meillo@1: local_net_route. meillo@1:
