Over time I have been back-porting fixes from Postfix 2.2 into the
Postfix 2.1 release, because there is a lot of deployment of Postfix
2.1.5. These are all minor fixes and typo corrections that introduce
no change in documented behavior.

Postfix 2.1 patchlevel 6 is for sites that depend on vendor-specific
enhancements, or that cannot change to Postfix 2.2 for other reasons.

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

20041228

	Bugfix: SMTPD_PROXY_README incorrectly claimed that ":port"
	in master.cf causes a server to listen only on "localhost"
	without exposing the service to the network.  Instead,
	":port" causes a client to connect to "localhost".

20050131

	Bugfix: when extracting recipients from message headers,
	the Postfix sendmail command produced output records longer
	than $line_length_limit, causing postdrop to reject the
	mail. Diagnosis by Victor Duchovni. File:  sendmail/sendmail.c.

20050208

	Sanity check: don't allow unlimited message size with
	limited mailbox size. File: local/local.c, virtual/virtual.c.

20050215

	Bugfix: don't chmod queue files while running "postfix
	set-permissions". This prevents mail from being labeled as
	"corrupt" when a live Postfix system is upgraded.  Found
	by Victor Duchovni.  File: conf/post-install.

20050227

	Bugfix (bug introduced 20040331): with SIGHUP ignored, the
	postdrop signal handler would effectively ignore SIGINT,
	SIGQUIT and SIGTERM.  Simplified the overly-conservative
	protection against nested signals in postdrop. File:
	postdrop/postdrop.c.

20050321

	Robustness: don't look for SMTP status code when there was
	none. File: smtp/smtp_chat.c, lmtp/lmtp_chat.c.

20050327

	Bugfix: the SMTP and LMTP clients did not ask the queue
	manager to reduce destination concurrency when "lost
	connection" or "connection timed out" happened AFTER Postfix
	received the server greeting. Files: smtp/smtp_trouble.c,
	lmtp/lmtp-trouble.c.

20050407

	@%^!#& Thanks to inadequate SASL documentation the client
	could negotiate a security layer where none was desired.
	Better documentation has become available since Postfix
	SASL support was implemented, and now Postfix needs to be
	fixed. Files: */*_sasl_glue.c.

20050412

	Bugfix: while updating the cleanup_flush() infrastructure
	in the 2.3 development release, eliminated a portability
	problem that was introduced when "REJECT text" support was
	added. File: cleanup/cleanup.c.

20050417

	Safety: don't call syslog from a user-triggered signal
	handler. File: postdrop/postdrop.c.
