This patch provides an emergency band-aid for the next wave of
MicroSoft email worms, fixes one bug, and makes external content
filtering a bit more robust.
- Feature: specify "body_checks = regexp:/etc/postfix/body_checks"
for an emergency content filter that looks at non-header lines
one line at a time (including MIME headers inside the message
body). This feature uses the same syntax as the header_checks
patterns. Details in conf/sample-filter.cf.
This feature is also available in Postfix snapshot 20000528.
- Bugfix: the masquerade_exceptions feature was case sensitive.
- Robustness: upon receipt of mail, Postfix maps MAILER-DAEMON@myorigin
sender address back into the magic null string, which prevents
mail from looping after processing by an external content filter.
format and generates a set of cross-referenced HTML documents. Each file that
is created represents a separate message in the mail archive and contains
links to other articles, so that the entire archive can be browsed in a
number of ways by following links. Archives generated by Hypermail can be
incrementally updated, and Hypermail is set by default to only update
archives when changes are detected.
- RFC 822 requires the presence of at least one destination
message header. Postfix now generates a generic "To:
undisclosed-recipients:;" message header when no destination
header is present. The header content is specified with the
new undisclosed_recipients_header parameter.
- Postfix now understands <(comment)> as SMTP MAIL FROM address,
because some broken software needs it. Postfix rejects such
illegal address forms with "strict_rfc821_envelopes = yes".
- Configuration parameters for one mysql dictionary would become
default settings for the next one. This patch was merged into
the development Postfix version a while back but apparently
that version was on a dead branch. Update by Scott Cotton.
- Some Postfix delivery agents would abort on addresses of the
form `stuff@.' which could unfortunately be generated locally.
- With local delivery, Postfix could insert > or . into the middle
of very long lines.
- SMTP sessions could time out when the remote client attempted
to deliver to a large number of rejected recipients. The SMTP
server now flushes unwritten output in-between tarpit delays,
to avoid protocol timeouts in pipelined SMTP sessions.
- Postfix would incorrectly reject domain names with adjacent `-'
characters.

* 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.
The port and package install _exactly_ the same as a manual qmail install,
except for the addition of a /var/qmail/setup directory where the setup
scripts are copied.
Therefore the following should apply: http://cr.yp.to/qmail/dist.html
