Hello qmail-ldap fans, The new 20030801 release of qmail-ldap is out, exactly on the Swiss national holiday. Switzerland was founded 712 years ago. For more information go here: http://www.admin.ch/ch/e/schweiz/index.html
However the qmail-ldap hackers are not in the capital Berne but in the far lager city of Z�rich which is about half-way between Berne and the text 'Germany'on that map. Have a look at http://www.stzh.ch/ and http://www.zuerich.com. Claudio earned his diploma in Electrical Engineering at the Swiss Federeal Institute of Technology in Z�rich http://www.ethz.ch (which is somewhat the MIT of Europe). I have studied at the TBZ http://www.tbz.ch/ in Z�rich. But orginally I am from Hamburg in nothern Germany and moved to Z�rich 17 years ago (well, my parents did and so did I). As usual you can get the patch here: http://www.nrg4u.com It contains the following bugfixes and changes: Some cleanup and clarification in smtpd and rbl logging. Added Russell Nelsons antivirus patch for qmail-smtpd. Compile qmail-ldap with the -DSMTPEXECCHECK option and turn it on with the REJECTEXEC environment variable. Added qmail-queue patch. Compile-time option via -DALTQUEUE. On-the-fly SMTP session data compression via ESMTP DATAZ extension. Saves a damn lot of bandwidth. This is currently draft. See draft-oppermann-smtp-datacompression-00.txt. Bug fix in Makefile (qmail-todo dependencies). Better handling of SMTP mail-parameters mainly SIZE. Until now only the first mail-parameter was used all others where ignored. Also specially escaped or quoted mail addresses could result in strange outcomes. New control/rbllist parser, it is no longer needed to use one tab as separator. Lines starting with a # are comments and will be ignored. New delivery mode noforward to disable all forwarding entries in ldap and .qmail. The deliveryMode attributes need some major overhaul becasue we have a few modes -- manly forwardonly, noforward, localdelivery, normal and nombox -- that are exclusive. Anyway for now this should make life a bit easier. qmail-remote tries now higher MX servers if the previous server temporary fails in the HELO/EHLO command exchange. >=500 errors result in a delivery error. Removed checking of client certificates from TLS in qmail-smtpd. It is no longer possible to allow automatic relaying via TLS client certs. TLS functionality for transport is not affected and continues to be fully functional. -- Andre
