See ChangeLog and documentation for a full list of bugs fixes and
new features. Release highlights include the addition of STARTTLS
extensions to SMTP and callback SMTP checks to verify sender addresses
on lightly loaded mail servers - prevent spam from made-up addresses.
This port includes the following flavors:
no_x11 - do not build eximon which requires X11
no_perl - do not include perl support
no_tls - do not include SSL/TLS support
mysql - support mysql queries for lookups
pgsql - support pgsql queries for lookups
ldap - support ldap (OpenLDAP) queries for lookups
All these queries are independent.
Maintainer has been temporarily chaged to me for feedback, until
Sebastian is back and available to support the port.
Testing has been limited to i386.
* bug fixes and new features release
* fix a tempnam() usage in the patch
No fake or flavours support - this may get done if I learn enough,
quickly enough. Will not build as a real package just now. Working on
it.
* Version 2.12 is no longer available on the primary or mirror sites
o The configuration file format has changed. For those upgrading,
please see the documentation and consider using the upgrade script to
help automate the config files change. This upgrade script is built as
part of the source, but *not* installed - as it should only be needed
once.
o The X11 eximon program will be built with this port/package - this
assumes that X is installed. Would someone with more ports
experience consider helping me here and writing the right kind of
Makefile check to see if files/eximon.conf should be copied to the
build directories.
o Perl support is included as standard as is support for additional
mail delivery formats. These are not the default in vanilla exim 3.12
o Finally, another plea for help. This port does not make as usuable
package, as I could not get support for the creation of a config file
working. I intend to look at this further, but as the old version was
completely useless, I felt it was better to get this in the tree
sooner rather than later.
