[An on-line version of this announcement will be available at
http://www.postfix.org/announcements/postfix-2.10.0.html]
Postfix stable release 2.10.0 is available. As of now, Postfix 2.6
is no longer updated.
Main changes (see the RELEASE_NOTES file for details):
* Separation of relay policy (with smtpd_relay_restrictions) from
spam policy (with smtpd_{client, helo, sender,
recipient}_restrictions), which makes accidental open relay
configuration less likely. The default is backwards compatible.
* HAproxy load-balancer support for postscreen(8) and smtpd(8).
The nginx proxy was already supported by Postfix 2.9 smtpd(8),
using XCLIENT commands.
* Support for the TLSv1 and TLSv2 protocols, as well as support
to turn them off if needed for inter-operability.
* Laptop-friendly configuration. By default, Postfix now uses
UNIX-domain sockets instead of FIFOs, and thus avoids MTIME
file system updates on an idle mail system.
* Revised postconf(1) command. The "-x" option expands $name in
a parameter value (both main.cf and master.cf); the "-o name=value"
option overrides a main.cf parameter setting; and postconf(1)
now warns about a $name that has no name=value setting.
* Sendmail-style "socketmap" lookup tables.
