added support for STARTTLS wrappers
added the route config option `instant_helo' which
causes masqmail, as SMTP client, not to wait for the
server's 220 greeting. Instead if says EHLO right at
once. You'll need this for STARTTLS wrappers that
usually eat the greeting line.

6 If you discover a bug then please report it. Your bug reports are an
|

7 important help in improving masqmail.

9 Valuable bug report include the following information. The first two
|
|
meillo@67
|
10 are essential, the others can also be added on request.
|

|
11
|
|
meillo@67
|
12 - A good description of what you consider to be the bug.
|
|
meillo@67
|
13
|
|
meillo@67
|
14 - The version of masqmail that was used. (The output of: masqmail -bV).
|
|
meillo@67
|
15
|
|
meillo@67
|
16 - A description on how to reproduce it. This includes information on
|
|
meillo@67
|
17 other software that is involved.
|
|
meillo@67
|
18
|
|
meillo@67
|
19 - The configuration files. These are probably the contents of
|
|
meillo@67
|
20 /etc/masqmail/*. Don't forget to substitute confidential data with
|
|
meillo@67
|
21 placeholders.
|
|
meillo@67
|
22
|
|
meillo@67
|
23 - The relevant log files. Have a look at the value of use_syslog and
|
|
meillo@67
|
24 log_dir in masqmail.conf. If use_syslog is enabled, the files are
|
|
meillo@67
|
25 probably some of /var/log/mail*. If you don't use syslog, then the
|
|
meillo@67
|
26 files reside unter the path assigned to log_dir, or by default in
|
|
meillo@67
|
27 /var/log/masqmail/. Take care to substitute confidential data if you
|
|
meillo@67
|
28 send debug files. (It's good to run masqmail with `-d 5' or `-d 6' to
|
|
meillo@67
|
29 generate debugging data that may help to track down the bug.
