fixed Debian bug 536060 (log files are closed after SIGHUP receival) Explanation: When run in daemon mode, first the log files are opened. They get assigned to the file descriptors 3 and 4 usually. Then std{in,out,err} are closed. When SIGHUP comes in, all open files are closes and masqmail reexecutes itself. The new masqmail instance opens the log files at fd 0 and 1 now, but std{in,out,err} are closed afterwards, thus the log files are closed. The fix is to close the log files before std{in,out,err} are closed, in case the log files have higher fds. After std{in,out,err} were closed, the log files get opened again, now.

Distribution specific stuff
===========================

Debian
------

If you compile for Debian, do the configure with at least these options:

	./configure --with-liblockfile --with-group=mail

Use the group `mail' instead of the group `trusted'.

You can also build your own Debian package with

	dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot

You need to have fakeroot installed to do this. Or, as root, do:

	dpkg-buildpackage

However, you better have a look at the official masqmail package in
Debian.

	apt-get source masqmail

is your friend.



SuSE/Redhat
-----------

There are spec files for rpm creation on the website. You may have to
adjust these files.
