This could cause session + oriented restrictions, e.g., STARTTLS requirements, + to erroneously allow a connection. Problem noted + by Tim Maletic of Priority Health. + Do not lookup MX records when sorting the MSP queue. The MSP + only needs to relay all mail to the MTA. Problem found + by Gary Mills of the University of Manitoba. + Do not restrict the length of connection information to 100 + characters in some logging statements. Problem noted by + Erik Parker. + When converting an enhanced status code to an exit status, use + EX_CONFIG if the first digit is not 2, 4, or 5 or if *.1.5 + is used. + Reset macro $x when receiving another MAIL command. Problem + noted by Vlado Potisk of Wigro s.r.o. + Don't bother setting the permissions on the build area statistics + file, the proper permissions will be put on the file at + install time. This fixes installation over NFS for some + users. Problem noted by Martin J. Dellwo of 3-Dimensional + Pharmaceuticals, Inc. + Fix problem of decoding SASLv2 encrypted data. Problem noted by + Alex Deiter of Mobile TeleSystems, Komi Republic. + Log milter socket open errors at MilterLogLevel 1 or higher instead + of 11 or higher. + Print early system errors to the console instead of silently + exiting. Problem noted by James Jong of IBM. + Do not process a queue group if Runners is set to 0, regardless + of whether F=f or sendmail is run in verbose mode (-v). + The use of -qGname will still force queue group "name" + to be run even if Runners=0. + Change the level for logging the fact that a daemon is refusing + connections due to high load from LOG_INFO to LOG_NOTICE. + Patch from John Beck of Sun Microsystems. + Use location information for submit.cf from NetInfo + (/locations/sendmail/submit.cf) if available. + Re-enable ForkEachJob which was lost in 8.12.0. Problem noted by + Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois University. + Make behavior of /canon in debug mode consistent with usage in + rulesets. Patch from Shigeno Kazutaka of IIJ. + Fix a potential memory leak in envelope splitting. Problem noted + by John Majikes of IBM. + Do not try to share an mailbox database LDAP connection across + different processes. Problem noted by Randy Kunkee. + Fix logging for undelivered recipients when the SMTP connection + times out during message collection. Problem noted by Neil + Rickert of Northern Illinois University. + Avoid problems with QueueSortOrder=random due to problems with + qsort() on Solaris (and maybe some other operating systems). + Problem noted by Stephan Schulz of Gruner+Jahr.. + If -f "" is specified, set the sender address to "<>". Problem + noted by Matthias Andree. + Fix formatting problem of footnotes for plain text output on some + versions of tmac. Patch from Per Hedeland of Ericsson. + Portability: + Berkeley DB 4.1 support (requires at least 4.1.25). + Some getopt(3) implementations in GNU/Linux are broken + and pass a NULL pointer to an option which requires + an argument, hence the builtin version of + sendmail is used instead. This can be overridden + by using -DSM_CONF_GETOPT=0. Problem noted by + Vlado Potisk of Wigro s.r.o. + Support for nph-1.2.0 from Mark D. Roth of the University + of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. + Support for FreeBSD 5.0's MAC labeling from Robert Watson + of the TrustedBSD Project. + Support for reading the number of processors on an IRIX + system from Michel Bourget of SGI. + Support for UnixWare 7.1 based on input from Larry Rosenman. + Interix support from Nedelcho Stanev of Atlantic Sky + Corporation. + Update Mac OS X/Darwin portability from Wilfredo Sanchez. + CONFIG: Enforce tls_client restrictions even if delay_checks + is used. Problem noted by Malte Starostik. + CONFIG: Deal with an empty hostname created via bogus + DNS entries to get around access restrictions. + Problem noted by Kai Schlichting. + CONFIG: Use FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]') in submit.mc by default + to avoid problems with hostname resolution for localhost + which on many systems does not resolve to 127.0.0.1 (or + ::1 for IPv6). If you do not use IPv4 but only IPv6 then + you need to change submit.mc accordingly, see the comment + in the file itself. + CONFIG: Set confDONT_INIT_GROUPS to True in submit.mc to avoid + error messages from initgroups(3) on AIX 4.3 when sending + mail to non-existing users. Problem noted by Mark Roth of + the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. + CONFIG: Allow local_procmail to override local_lmtp settings. + CONFIG: Always allow connections from 127.0.0.1 or IPv6:::1 to + relay. + CONTRIB: cidrexpand: Deal with the prefix tags that may be included + in access_db. + CONTRIB: New version of doublebounce.pl contributed by Leo Bicknell. + LIBMILTER: On Solaris libmilter may get into an endless loop if + an error in the communication from/to the MTA occurs. + Patch from Gurusamy Sarathy of Active State. + LIBMILTER: Ignore EINTR from sigwait(3) which may happen on Tru64. + Patch from from Jose Marcio Martins da Cruz of Ecole + Nationale Superieure des Mines de Paris. + MAIL.LOCAL: Fix a truncation race condition if the close() on + the mailbox fails. Problem noted by Tomoko Fukuzawa of + Sun Microsystems. + MAIL.LOCAL: Fix a potential file descriptor leak if mkstemp(3) + fails. Patch from John Beck of Sun Microsystems. + SMRSH: SECURITY: Only allow regular files or symbolic links to be + used for a command. Problem noted by David Endler of + iDEFENSE, Inc. + New Files: + devtools/OS/Interix + include/sm/bdb.h + 8.12.6/8.12.6 2002/08/26 Do not add the FallbackMXhost (or its MX records) to the list returned by the bestmx map when -z is used as option. |
