Snapshot 2.2-20041009 adds minor features:

- Per SMTP client message rate and recipient rate limits. These
limit the number of MAIL FROM or RCPT TO requests per time unit,
regardless of whether or not Postfix would have accepted them
otherwise. The user interface (smtpd_client_message_rate_limit and
smtpd_client_recipient_rate_limit) is similar to that of the existing
per SMTP client connection rate limit.

- SASL authentication attributes are now stored queue files and
are passed on to delivery agents. The first delivery agent to take
advantage of this is the pipe(8) delivery agent.

Below is a summary from the HISTORY file.

	Wietse

20041002

	Long overdue, a master(5) manual page based on an initial
	version by Magnus Baeck.

	By popular demand, a postfix-manuals.html web page with
	totally useless links to UNIX-style manual pages (the same
	information should already be available simply by typing
	"apropos postfix"). To keep newbies from getting completely
	lost due to information overload, the document starts with
	a list of actually useful pointers to Postfix introductions,
	duplicated from the already existing documents.html.

20041006

	Bugfix: "sendmail -bv" did not reject the -t option.  File:
	sendmail/sendmail.c.

20041007

	Feature: SASL authentication attributes are now stored in
	queue files and passed on to delivery agents, by Leandro
	Santi. Files:  deliver_pass.c, deliver_request.c,
	qmgr_deliver.c, qmgr_message.c, pipe.c, smtpd.c.

20041009

	Feature: per SMTP client message rate limit and recipient
	rate limit, by Ragnar Lonn, GHN network technologies.
	Files: smtpd/smtpd.c, anvil/anvil.c, global/anvil_clnt.[hc].

	Incompatibility: smtpd_client_connection_limit_exceptions
	renamed to smtpd_client_event_limit_exceptions, because it
	now also controls message and recipient rate limit control.
