We're getting very close to the release of DBMail 2.0 now. Release
candidate 6 is here. These are the major fixes and changes compared to RC5:
* Deliveries are quicker. The mail size of the internal delivery
user is no longer updated on every delivery, avoiding a lot of locking.
* Finding "INBOX" is faster because of better use of indexes.
* Reading of messages from a socket (LMTP) or stdin(dbmail-smtp)
works better. Both put the message into the database in the same way.
* the POP3 AUTH command returns a more sane answer than before.
* The build process now uses libtool to produce the libraries.
* ./configure, make all, make install now works completely,
installing executables in /usr/local/sbin.
There are a lot of small fixes in the code, which mainly have to do with
cleaning up code.
There's a small change in the database structure. The messageblks table
has a field called is_header, which is set to '1' if the messageblock is
a header block. This field isn't used yet, but will be in future releases.
