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.

9 Run the test by executing

|
meillo@63
|
10 ./test
|
|
meillo@63
|
11 in its directory, preferably NOT as root, but you got to have write

15 Usually, two log files, masqmail.log and debug.log, will be created.

26 If tests do not work, there could be some problem with either the test
|
|
meillo@0
|
27 programs, the configuration file or masqmail itself. If you have
|
|
meillo@0
|
28 installed masqmail successfully and these scripts do not work, do not
|
|
meillo@0
|
29 worry too much :-).
