This file lists all the major user-visible changes to nullmailer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.03 - Fixed the SMTP protocol module to send QUIT on protocol failures. - Added support for the SMTP AUTH LOGIN method. Thanks to Sean MacLennan for the suggestion. - Fixed the SMTP protocol module to send EHLO instead of HELO when doing authentication. Thanks to Norbert Tretkowski for pointing this out. - Fixed compile breakage on Solaris due to use of setenv. - Fixed netstring length bug in QMQP sending module. - If the sender name cannot be determined from the environment variables, try to pull it from /etc/passwd before using "unknown". Thanks Roderick Schertler. Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.02 - Fixed bug in SMTP AUTH that would cause SMTP sending to crash with a segfault when it was used. Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.01 - Added support for SMTP AUTH PLAIN. Thanks to Ace Jones for the initial implementation. - Fixed compile error in lib/list.h Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00 - Fixed problem with multiple arguments to protocol modules. Thanks Sascha Silbe. - Fixed extraneous spaces in SMTP sender. - Made permissions on queued files more strict. - Handle the "-bs" flag in the sendmail wrapper by dieing when we see it. - Fixed the address parser handling domain names with trailing periods. - Fixed bug in header parsing that would cause the last header line to be repeated if there was no body. - Fixed bug in handling headers containing CR+LF line endings. Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC7 - Fixed typo in smtp protocol module that caused HELO to be sent without a hostname. - Added a one-shot mode to nullmailer-send, triggered by setting the pausetime to zero. Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC6 - Protocol modules now report all failure and success messages. - Removed the whole gethostname/getdomainname mess and replaced it with code to read the hostname from the "me" control file, and the default domain name from the "defaultdomain" control file. - Fixed a bug that would cause lines starting with a period to have that period stripped when it was sent via SMTP. - Added some missing includes to fix compilation failures in various sources. - Fixed a bug in the setenv function in sendmail.cc. NOTE! Make sure to set up the new "me" control file before using this version. The RPM install does this automatically. Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc. ossi@FutureQuest.net http://www.FutureQuest.net/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC5 - Fixed getdomainname prototype in lib/hostname.cc. - Return proper error codes for permanent and temporary SMTP failures. - Adapted to use supervise-scripts 3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC4 - Fixed the reversed logic in the named pipe bug check. - Updated the HOWTO notes. - Fixed a compile problem on Solaris (and possibly other systems). - Fixed address parsing to strip a trailing period in the domain name. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC3 - Treat the first non-header line in a message as the first line of the body, even if it isn't preceded by a blank line. - Fixed another host name bug causing compilation failures on systems without "domainname" in struct utsname. - Fixed some typos that would prevent proper TCP connections on many systems. - Handle systems that require both a reader and a writer on a named pipe to do a proper select. - Added a man page for the sendmail emulator, and an overall man page. - Fixed a bug in the fdbuf library that was causing data loss or damage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC2 - Fixed a bug in the way host names are determined. This should fix problems with nullmailer-queue reporting an invalid envelope. - Fixed a portability bug in the mergelib.sh script. - Fixed a potential bug in the SMTP protocol response handling. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 1.00RC1 - Imported latest fdbuf, mystring, and cli libraries. - Fixed a bug in the timezone handling on systems with tm_gmtoff. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.40 - Fixed some compile problems to allow nullmailer to compile on FreeBSD. - Fixed a bug in the sendmail emulator to allow it to set the sender name and address from the command line properly. - Modified the CLI library to behave more like the standard getopt library. - Made a change to protocol between nullmailer-send and protocol modules. nullmailer-send now opens up the message files and passes them to the protocol module as FD 0 instead of passing a filename. - Added some notes to the nullmailer-send manual page explaining how messages are delivered. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.39 - Fixed problems in nullmailer-send in parsing the "remotes" file. It previously did not handle comment lines or tabs or multiple white space. - Made nullmailer-inject stricter about header lines to ensure that they comply with RFC822. - Several minor updates to the libraries to bring them up to date. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.38 - Fixed bug in nullmailer-send that caused it to refuse to send mail when the optional "pausetime" configuration file did not exist. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.37 - Fixed bug in address parser that caused strings like "" (without a leading comment) to fail. - Make nullmailer-send rescan the mail queue each time it wakes up, rather than only if the timestamp changes to avoids race conditions. - Make nullmailer-send reload its config files ("remotes" and "pausetime" each time it scans the queue). - Fixed top-level install-root target to run chmod/chown on the right path to nullmailer-queue. - Added a configure test for libinet, libsocket, and libxnet libraries for systems that have their networking code seperate from the main C library (such as Solaris). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.36 - Imported generic CLI library, to avoid the use of getopt on systems that don't have one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.35 - Protocols now take a "-p #" to specify the port number to connect to. - This option can be specified in the "remotes" file immediately after the protocol name. - nullmailer-send will now only rescan the mail queue if its timestamp has changed since the last scan. - Fixed an observed problem with empty domain names by using uname(2) instead of domainname and hostname. - The header address parsing code is rewritten to do a lexical tokenization before parsing. - Imported new fdbuf and mystring libraries - Updated init scripts and RPM spec to work with new daemontools 0.61 and supervise-scripts packages. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.33 - fixed a bug in the "list" template class that caused nullmailer-send to only send out one message before sleeping - added a trivial address remapping facility to nullmailer-queue to allow local addresses to be redirected to a remote administrator address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.32 - the address parser now deals properly with quoted addresses ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.31 - added a HOWTO document - "make install-root" will now properly make nullmailer-queue setuid nullmail ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.30 - fixed bug in the I/O library that caused nullmailer-inject to return an error on messages with a single blank line following the header, even though the message was successfully sent to nullmailer-queue - in nullmailer-inject, the hostname of the sender is set from the defaulthost config file instead of hostname() (note that default is set from hostname() if the file does not exist) - fixed a bug in nullmailer-inject that would cause it to incorrectly clear its recipient list when using command-line recipients with a "resent" message ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.29 - included the testing framework (mostly empty) into the package - fixed some bugs in nullmailer-inject caused by incorrect offsets into the array of header fields - many bug fixes to the address parsing framework - nullmailer-inject now has an option to only print out the message instead of passing it on to nullmailer-queue - many sendmail flags are now ignored instead of causing errors in the sendmail front end to nullmailer-inject ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.28 - fixed the bugs in the spec and init script - nullmailer-inject now handles the "c" flag like qmail-inject - changed some error messages - the sendmail front end should have its header vs command-line recipients logic fixed now ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.27 - added a QMQP protocol module - fixed a missing NUL-termination when creating the Date header line - nullmailer-inject now parses the NULLMAILER_FLAGS -- see the man page ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.26 - nullmailer-queue and nullmailer-send now go into sbin instead of bin - bugfixes to the unique number generation routines - moved some files around internally ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.25 - nullmailer-send now reads a protocol name along with the remote host - nullmailer-inject now handles its command-line options properly, as well as reading and using defaulthost, defaultdomain, and idhost - fixed several bugs in the address parsing and date-generation code - revised the interface between nullmailer-send and the protocol modules to simplify the interface and nullmailer-send ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in version 0.22 - added simple sendmail front end -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
