mini_sendmail reads its standard input up to an end-of-file and sends a
copy of the message found there to all of the addresses listed. The
message is sent by connecting to a local SMTP server. This means
mini_sendmail can be used to send email from inside a chroot(2) area.
- fix an off-by-one sscanf length argument (processing the local
database, not external data), from Anil Madhavapeddy.
- fix -b/-w confusion for the -r example in the man page,
reported by several people.
function prototype for it in mail.h - that's it. the function itself is
nonexistant.
patch a stub in so c-client actually can work.
ok jakob@ some time ago
fixes for minor problems that surfaced in the past three weeks.
The official release is changed only for bugfixes and portability
issues (with a very rare exception this time). New features are
normally tested in the snapshot releases which eventually evolve
into the next official Postfix version.
- New "postcat -q" (search the queue for the named file) support
from snapshot release because I can no longer see people suffer.
- Allow <@site,@site:address> route addresses in SMTP commands.
This address form was deprecated years ago.
- "sendmail -q<time>" without -bd option now exits immediately,
instead of waiting for input and screwing up system boot sequences.
- The Postfix LMTP client used the wrong service name, causing
trouble with SASL 2.1.13.
- Turned off non-blocking write to pipe because too many systems
gave an unexpected write() result, causing partial delivery of
messages to commands like procmail."
"Perhaps the most notable changes are bug fixes for broken "mbox"
functionality, for a crash when Taking to a Rule, for a crash when Sorting
on some IMAP servers, and for a problem when forwarding address book
entries and Taking them, which caused remote address book corruption.
There is some new support for reading news from more than one NNTP server,
a new tab-checks-recent feature to allow checking for new mail in a folder
without opening it, and a few other small improvements."
