reworked online_detect to the simpler online_query Only pipe is supported now. Use online_query="/bin/cat /path/to/file" instead of online_detect=file online_file=/path/to/file and online_query="/path/to/some/script foo" instead of online_detect=pipe online_pipe="/path/to/some/script foo" See man page masqmail.conf(5) and admin/config-transition.

Howto link masqmail statically?
-------------------------------

With gcc (don't know anything about other compilers), you simply
build masqmail with:

	LDFLAGS=-static make -e


On Debian GNU/Linux, I received a bunch warnings of that kind:

	interface.o: In function `init_sockaddr':
	interface.c:55: warning: Using 'gethostbyname' in statically
	linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries
	from the glibc version used for linking

On NetBSD I no warnings were printed.

I don't have enough knowledge to tell the reasons and implications.
Maybe you can.
