Hi all,

fixed in assp 2.4.2 build 14121:

- ASSP_FC 1.05 solves a problem with MS-IE (the GUI was not shown)

- 'lib/BlockReport/modify' can now encode the BlockReport to base64 - this 
should solve problems with Apple mail APP
  the module has to be manualy changed to enable this function

  # change the value to 1 if your mail clients are unable to work with the 
BlockReports (eg. Apple mail APP)
  our $convert2Base64 = 0;

- if an unavailable database driver was defined, the error handling was 
incomplete and has thrown confusing error
  messages
 
- improved DNS queries and DNS error handling

- improved SPF query processing

- the spamlover handling for all Plugins was wrong 

- better 'non existing domain' handling

- the 'STARTTLS' was accepted, even if SSL was disabled or denied for the 
connected IP or listener

- the PTRCache was filled with 'failed' records if the DNS query was 
running in to a timeout
  a check for 'NXDOMAIN' now prevents this

- the DNS persistent Socket usage was not working on sockyfied Perl 
installations

- the MX and MX/A check - DNS query was not running well in some cases

- 530 error replies were not counted for 'MaxErrors'

- the rebuild process has stopped because of UTF8 error in some cases

- solves some memory leaking for some modules


changed:

- the file 'ASSP-MIB' has got an update

- the default value of the hidden parameter 'BDBMaxCacheSize:shared'   # 
BDB downward cachesize check starting point  in MB
  has been changed to zero

- it is no longer required to enable 'useDB4rebuild' to generate a Hidden 
Markow Model
  notice: all processing is done in memory, which speeds up the rebuild 
processing
          how ever, a large amount of RAM (>>> 1.5GB) will be required and 
the rebuild process may terminate
          or the Perl process may die, if the memory usage is growing too 
much
 
- the internal limit (999) for 'maxSMTPSessions' is removed

- the background SPF processing now uses no limit to get better cache 
results

- if a 'on the fly' SPF query failes because the  'Maximum DNS-interactive 
terms limit' is reached
  the current processing is stopped and a full background SPF check is 
queued to run
 
- a change of the module 'lib/BlockReport::modify' has required a restart 
of assp to become active
  this restart is no longer required - changes to this module take place 
with the next Blockreport



added:

'DisableExtAUTH','Disable SMTP AUTH for External Clients'
 'If you do not want external clients (IP not in acceptAllMail or 
relayPort is not used) to use SMTP AUTH - 
  for example to prevent address and password harvesting - check this 
option.
  The "AUTH" offer in the EHLO and HELP reply will be stripped out, if set 
to on.
  Notice: setting this option to ON could prevent roaming users (dynamic 
IP) from being able to authenticate!

- It is now possible to use WHOIS queries instead or in addition to 
SenderBase queries

'enableWhois','Use Whois Queries instead or after or before of SenderBase 
Queries',
'0:disabled|1:WHOIS only|2:SenderBase first|3:WHOIS first'
  If enabled, WHOIS queries to Whois-servers
 
        "ARIN" => "whois.arin.net" - (which will possible redirect to)
 
        "RIPE" => "whois.ripe.net"
        "APNIC" => "whois.apnic.net"
        "KRNIC" => "whois.krnic.net"
        "LACNIC" => "whois.lacnic.net"
        "AFRINIC" => "whois.afrinic.net"
 
  will be done instead/after/before (WHOIS only/SenderBase first/WHOIS 
first) the Senderbase queries to CISCO's 
  Ironport servers to get informations about an IP address. ARIN will be 
the first queried WHOIS server.
  For the two '...first' options, the alternative second check is done, if 
the first check failes or assp has 
  got no result for the county code.
  This is useful, if your DNS-servers don't get answers for senderbase 
queries or senderbase queries are too slow.
  In most cases WHOIS queries are much more faster than senderbase 
queries!
  NOTICE: you must open the WHOIS-port (43) for TCP on your firewall for 
outgoing traffic from assp 
  (if not already done)!'
 
 
- it is now possible to override the 220 greeting of the local MTA

'myGreeting','Override the Server SMTP Greeting',
 'Send this SMTP greeting (eg. 220 MYNAME is ready - using ASSP VERSION) 
instead of your MTA's SMTP greeting to 
 the client. If not defined (default), the MTA's greeting will be sent to 
the client. The literal MYNAME will 
 be replaced with myName and the literal VERSION will be replaced by the 
full version string of assp. 
 If the starting '220 ' is not defined, assp will add it to the greeting.'
