SENDMAIL RELEASE NOTES $Id: RELEASE_NOTES,v 8.1752 2005/09/16 21:05:07 ca Exp $ This listing shows the version of the sendmail binary, the version of the sendmail configuration files, the date of release, and a summary of the changes in that release. 8.13.5/8.13.5 2005/09/16 Store the filesystem identifier of the df/ subdirectory (if it exists) in an internal structure instead of the base directory. This structure is used decide whether there is enough free disk space when selecting a queue, hence without this change queue selection could fail if a df/ subdirectory exists and is on a different filesystem than the base directory. Use the queue index of the df file (instead of the qf file) for checking whether a link(2) operation can be used to split an envelope across queue groups. Problem found by Werner Wiethege. If the list of items in the queue is larger than the maximum number of items to process, sort the queue first and then cut the list off instead of the other way around. Patch from Matej Vela of Rudjer Boskovic Institute. Fix helpfile to show full entry for ETRN. Problem noted by Penelope Fudd, patch from Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois University. FallbackSmartHost should also be tried on temporary errors. From John Beck of Sun Microsystems. When a server responds with 421 to the STARTTLS command then treat it as a temporary error, not as protocol error. Problem noted by Andrey J. Melnikoff. Properly define two functions in libsm as static because their prototype used static too. Patch from Peter Klein. Fix syntax errors in helpfile for MAIL and RCPT commands. LIBMILTER: When smfi_replacebody() is called with bodylen equals zero then do not silently ignore that call. Patch from Gurusamy Sarathy of Active State. LIBMILTER: Recognize "421" also in a multi-line reply to terminate the SMTP session with that error. Fix from Brian Kantor. Portability: New option HASSNPRINTF which can be set if the OS has a properly working snprintf(3) to get rid of the last two (safe) sprintf(3) calls in the source code. Add support for AIX 5.3. Add support for SunOS 5.11 (aka Solaris 11). Add support for Darwin 8.x. Patch from Lyndon Nerenberg. OpenBSD 3.7 has removed support for NETISO. CONFIG: Add OSTYPE(freebsd6) for FreeBSD 6.X. Set DontBlameSendmail to AssumeSafeChown and GroupWritableDirPathSafe for OSTYPE(darwin). Patch from Lyndon Nerenberg. Some features still used 4.7.1 as enhanced status code which was supposed to be eliminated in 8.13.0 because some broken systems misinterpret it as a permanent error. Patch from Matej Vela of Rudjer Boskovic Institute. Some default values in a generated cf file did not match the defaults in the sendmail binary. Problem noted by Mike Pechkin.
