98.9.3/8.9.3	99/02/04
10	SECURITY: Limit message headers to a maximum of 32K bytes (total
11		of all headers in a single message) to prevent a denial of
12		service attack.  This limit will be configurable in 8.10.
13		Problem noted by Michal Zalewski of the "Internet for
14		Schools" project (IdS).
15	Prevent segmentation fault on an LDAP lookup if the LDAP map
16		was closed due to an earlier failure.  Problem noted by
17		Jeff Wasilko of smoe.org.  Fix from Booker Bense of
18		Stanford University and Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
19	Preserve the order of the MIME headers in multipart messages
20		when performing the MIME header length check.  This
21		will allow PGP signatures to function properly.  Problem
22		noted by Lars Hecking of University College, Cork, Ireland.
23	If ruleset 5 rewrote the local address to an :include: directive,
24		the delivery would fail with an "aliasing/forwarding loop
25		broken" error.  Problem noted by Eric C Hagberg of Morgan
26		Stanley.  Fix from Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
27	Allow -T to work for bestmx maps.  Fix from Aaron Schrab of
28		ExecPC Internet Systems.
29	During the transfer of a message in an SMTP transaction, if a
30		TCP timeout occurs, the message would be properly queued
31		for later retry but the failure would be logged as
32		"Illegal Seek" instead of a timeout.  Problem noted by
33		Piotr Kucharski of the Warsaw School of Economics (SGH)
34		and Carles Xavier Munyoz Baldo of CTV Internet.
35	Prevent multiple deliveries on a self-referencing alias if the
36		F=w mailer flag is not set.  Problem noted by Murray S.
37		Kucherawy of Concentric Network Corporation and Per
38		Hedeland of Ericsson.
39	Do not strip empty headers but if there is no value and a
40		default is defined in sendmail.cf, use the default.
41		Problem noted by Philip Guenther of Gustavus Adolphus
42		College and Christopher McCrory of Netus, Inc.
43	Don't inherit information about the sender (notably the full name)
44		in SMTP (-bs) mode, since this might be called from inetd.
45	Accept any 3xx reply code in response to DATA command instead of
46		requiring 354.  This change will match the wording to be
47		published in the updated SMTP specification from the DRUMS
48		group of the IETF.
49	Portability:
50		AIX 4.2.0.2 ships with a /usr/lib/libbind.a which should
51			not be used.  It conflicts with the resolver
52			built into libc.a.  "bind" has been removed
53			from the confLIBSEARCH BuildTools variable.
54			Users who have installed BIND 8.X will have
55			to add it back in their site.config.m4 file.
56			Problem noted by Ole Holm Nielsen of the
57			Technical University of Denmark.
58		CRAY TS 10.0.x from Sven Nielsen of San Diego
59			Supercomputer Center.
60		Improved LDAP version 3 integration based on input
61			from Kurt D. Zeilenga of the OpenLDAP Foundation,
62			John Beck of Sun Microsystems, and Booker Bense
63			of Stanford University.
64		Linux doesn't have a standard way to get the timezone
65			between different releases.  Back out the
66			change in 8.9.2 and don't attempt to derive
67			a timezone.  Problem reported by Igor S. Livshits
68			of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
69			and Michael Dickens of Tetranet Communications.
70		Reliant UNIX, the new name for SINIX, from Gert-Jan Looy
71			of Siemens/SNI.
72		SunOS 5.8 from John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
73	CONFIG: SCO UnixWare 2.1 and 7.0 need TZ to get the proper
74		timezone.  Problem noted by Petr Lampa of Technical
75		University of Brno.
76	CONFIG: Handle <@bestmx-host:user@otherhost> addressing properly
77		when using FEATURE(bestmx_is_local).  Patch from Neil W.
78		Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
79	CONFIG: Properly handle source routed and %-hack addresses on
80		hosts which the mailertable remaps to local:.  Patch from
81		Neil W. Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
82	CONFIG: Internal fixup of mailertable local: map value.  Patch from
83		Larry Parmelee of Cornell University.
84	CONFIG: Only add back +detail from host portion of mailer triplet
85		on local mailer triplets if it was originally +detail.
86		Patch from Neil W. Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
87	CONFIG: The bestmx_is_local checking done in check_rcpt would
88		cause later checks to fail.  Patch from Paul J Murphy of
89		MIDS Europe.
90	New files:
91		BuildTools/OS/CRAYTS.10.0.x
92		BuildTools/OS/ReliantUNIX
93		BuildTools/OS/SunOS.5.8
94
958.9.2/8.9.2	98/12/30
96	SECURITY: Remove five second sleep on accepting daemon connections
97		due to an accept() failure.  This sleep could be used
98		for a denial of service attack.
99	Do not silently ignore queue files with names which are too long.
100		Patch from Bryan Costales of InfoBeat, Inc.
101	Do not store failures closing an SMTP session in persistent
102		host status.  Reported by Graeme Hewson of Oracle
103		Corporation UK.
104	Allow symbolic link forward files if they are in safe directories.
105		Problem noted by Andreas Schott of the Max Planck Society.
106	Missing columns in a text map could cause a segmentation fault.
107		Fix from David Lee of the University of Durham.
108	Note that for 8.9.X, PrivacyOptions=goaway also includes the
109		noetrn flag.  This is scheduled to change in a future
110		version of sendmail.  Problem noted by Theo Van Dinter of
111		Chrysalis Symbolic Designa and Alan Brown of Manawatu
112		Internet Services.
113	When trying to do host canonification in a Wildcard MX
114		environment, try an MX lookup of the hostname without the
115		default domain appended.  Problem noted by Olaf Seibert of
116		Polderland Language & Speech Technology.
117	Reject SMTP RCPT To: commands with only comments (i.e.
118		'RCPT TO: (comment)'.  Problem noted by Earle Ake of
119		Hassler Communication Systems Technology, Inc.
120	Handle any number of %s in the LDAP filter spec.  Patch from
121		Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
122	Clear ldapx open timeouts even if the map open failed to prevent
123		a segmentation fault.  Patch from Wayne Knowles of the
124		National Institute of Water & Atmospheric Research Ltd.
125	Do not syslog envelope clone messages when using address
126		verification (-bv).  Problem noted by Kari Hurtta of the
127		Finnish Meteorological Institute.
128	Continue to perform queue runs while in daemon mode even if the
129		daemon is rejecting connections due to a disk full
130		condition.  Problem noted by JR Oldroyd of TerraNet
131		Internet Services.
132	Include full filename on installation of the sendmail.hf file
133		in case the $HFDIR directory does not exist.  Problem
134		noted by Josef Svitak of Montana State University.
135	Close all maps when exiting the process with one exception.
136        	Berkeley DB can use internal shared memory locking for
137        	its memory pool.  Closing a map opened by another process
138        	will interfere with the shared memory and locks of the
139        	parent process leaving things in a bad state.  For
140		Berkeley DB, only close the map if the current process
141		is also the one that opened the map, otherwise only close
142		the map file descriptor.  Thanks to Yoseff Francus of
143		Collective Technologies for volunteering his system for
144		extended testing.
145	Avoid null pointer dereference on XDEBUG output for SMTP reply
146		failures.  Problem noted by Carlos Canau of EUnet Portugal.
147	On mailq and hoststat listings being piped to another program, such
148		as more, if the pipe closes (i.e. the user quits more),
149		stop sending output and exit.  Patch from Allan E Johannesen
150		of Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
151	In accordance with the documentation, LDAP map lookup failures
152		are now considered temporary failures instead of permanent
153		failures unless the -t flag is used in the map definition.
154		Problem noted by Booker Bense of Stanford University and
155		Eric C. Hagberg of Morgan Stanley.
156	Fix by one error reporting on long alias names.  Problem noted by
157		H. Paul Hammann of the Missouri Research and Education
158		Network.
159	Fix DontBlameSendmail=IncludeFileInUnsafeDirPath behavior.  Problem
160		noted by Barry S. Finkel of Argonne National Laboratory.
161	When automatically converting from 8 bit to quoted printable MIME,
162		be careful not to miss a multi-part boundary if that
163		boundary is preceded by a boundary-like line.  Problem
164		noted by Andreas Raschle of Ansid Inc.  Fix from
165		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
166	Avoid bogus reporting of "LMTP tobuf overflow" when the buffer
167		has enough space for the additional address.  Problem
168		noted by Steve Cliffe of the University of Wollongong.
169	Fix DontBlameSendmail=FileDeliveryToSymlink behavior.  Problem
170		noted by Alex Vorobiev of Swarthmore College.
171	If the check_compat ruleset resolves to the $#discard mailer,
172		discard the current recipient.  Unlike check_relay,
173		check_mail, and check_rcpt, the entire envelope is not
174		discarded.  Problem noted by RZ D. Rahlfs.  Fix from
175		Claus Assmann of Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.
176	Avoid segmentation fault when reading ServiceSwitchFile files with
177		bogus formatting.  Patch from Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
178		Meteorological Institute.
179	Support Berkeley DB 2.6.4 API change.
180	OP.ME: Pages weren't properly output on duplexed printers.  Fix
181		from Matthew Black of CSU Long Beach.
182	Portability:
183		Apple Rhapsody from Wilfredo Sanchez of Apple Computer, Inc.
184		Avoid a clash with IRIX 6.2 getopt.h and the UserDatabase
185			option structure.  Problem noted by Ashley M.
186			Kirchner of Photo Craft Laboratories, Inc.
187		Break out IP address to hostname translation for
188			reading network interface addresses into
189			class 'w'.  Patch from John Kennedy of
190			Cal State University, Chico.
191		AIX 4.x use -qstrict with -O3 to prevent the optimized
192			from changing the semantics of the compiled
193			program.  From Simon Travaglia of the
194			University of Waikato, New Zealand.
195		FreeBSD 2.2.2 and later support setusercontext().  From
196			Peter Wemm of DIALix.
197		FreeBSD 3.x fix from Peter Wemm of DIALix.
198		IRIX 5.x has a syslog buffer size of 512 bytes.  From
199			Nao NINOMIYA of Utsunomiya University.
200		IRIX 6.5 64-bit Build support.
201		LDAP Version 3 support from John Beck and Ravi Iyer
202			of Sun Microsystems.
203		Linux does not implement seteuid() properly.  From
204			John Kennedy of Cal State University, Chico.
205		Linux timezone type was set improperly.  From Takeshi Itoh
206			of Bits Co., Ltd.
207		NCR MP-RAS 3.x needs -lresolv for confLIBS.  From
208			Tom J. Moore of NCR.
209		NeXT 4.x correction to man page path.  From J. P. McCann
210			of E I A.
211		System V Rel 5.x (a.k.a UnixWare7 w/o BSD-Compatibility Libs)
212			from Paul Gampe of the Asia Pacific Network
213			Information Center.
214		ULTRIX now requires an optimization limit of 970 from
215			Allan E Johannesen of Worcester Polytechnic
216			Institute.
217		Fix extern declaration for sm_dopr().  Fix from Henk
218			van Oers of Algemeen Nederlands Persbureau.
219	CONFIG: Catch @hostname,user@anotherhost.domain as relaying.
220		Problem noted by Mark Rogov of AirMedia, Inc.  Fix from
221		Claus Assmann of Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.
222	CONFIG: Do not refer to http://maps.vix.com/ on RBL rejections as
223		there are multiple RBL's available and the MAPS RBL may
224		not be the one in use.  Suggested by Alan Brown of
225		Manawatu Internet Services.
226	CONFIG: Properly strip route addresses (i.e. @host1:user@host2)
227		when stripping down a recipient address to check for
228		relaying.  Patch from Claus Assmann of
229		Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel and Neil W Rickert
230		of Northern Illinois University.
231	CONFIG: Allow the access database to override RBL lookups.  Patch
232		from Claus Assmann of Christian-Albrechts-University of
233		Kiel.
234	CONFIG: UnixWare 7 support from Phillip P. Porch of The Porch
235		Dot Com.
236	CONFIG: Fixed check for deferred delivery mode warning.  Patch
237		from Claus Assmann of Christian-Albrechts-University of
238                Kiel and Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
239	CONFIG: If a recipient using % addressing is used, e.g.
240		user%site@othersite, and othersite's MX records are now
241		checked for local hosts if FEATURE(relay_based_on_MX) is
242		used.  Problem noted by Alexander Litvin of Lucky Net Ltd.
243		Patch from Alexander Litvin of Lucky Net Ltd and
244		Claus Assmann of Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.
245	MAIL.LOCAL: Prevent warning messages from appearing in the LMTP
246		stream.  Do not allow more than one response per recipient.
247	MAIL.LOCAL: Handle routed addresses properly when using LMTP.  Fix
248		from John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
249	MAIL.LOCAL: Properly check for CRLF when using LMTP.  Fix from
250		John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
251	MAIL.LOCAL: Substitute MAILER-DAEMON for the LMTP empty sender in
252		the envelope From header.
253	MAIL.LOCAL: Accept underscores in hostnames in LMTP mode.
254		Problem noted by Glenn A. Malling of Syracuse University.
255	MAILSTATS: Document msgsrej and msgsdis fields in the man page.
256		Problem noted by Richard Wong of Princeton University.
257	MAKEMAP: Build group list so group writable files are allowed with
258		the -s flag.  Problem noted by Curt Sampson of Internet
259		Portal Services, Inc.
260	PRALIASES: Automatically handle alias files created without the
261		NULL byte at the end of the key.  Patch from John Beck of
262		Sun Microsystems.
263	PRALIASES: Support Berkeley DB 2.6.4 API change.
264	New Files:
265		BuildTools/OS/IRIX64.6.5
266		BuildTools/OS/UnixWare.5.i386
267		cf/cf/unixware7.m4
268		contrib/smcontrol.pl
269		src/control.c
270
2718.9.1/8.9.1	98/07/02
272	If both an OS specific site configuration file and a generic
273		site.config.m4 file existed, only the latter was used
274		instead of both.  Problem noted by Geir Johannessen of
275		the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.
276	Fix segmentation fault while converting 8 bit to 7 bit MIME
277		multipart messages by trying to write to an unopened
278		file descriptor.  Fix from Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
279		Meteorological Institute.
280	Do not assume Message: and Text: headers indicate the end of
281		the header area when parsing MIME headers.  Problem noted
282		by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
283	Setting the confMAN#SRC Build variable would only effect the
284		installation commands.  The man pages would still be
285		built with .0 extensions.  Problem noted by Bryan
286		Costales of InfoBeat, Inc.
287	Installation of manual pages didn't honor the DESTDIR environment
288		variable.  Problem noted by Bryan Costales of InfoBeat, Inc.
289	If the check_relay ruleset resolved to the discard mailer, messages
290		were still delivered.  Problem noted by Mirek Luc of NASK.
291	Mail delivery to files would fail with an Operating System Error
292		if sendmail was not running as root, i.e. RunAsUser was set.
293		Problem noted by Leonard N. Zubkoff of Dandelion Digital.
294	Prevent MinQueueAge from interfering from queued items created
295		in the future, i.e. if the system clock was set ahead
296		and then back.  Problem noted by Michael Miller of the
297		University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg.
298	Do not advertise ETRN support in ESTMP EHLO reply if noetrn is
299		set in the PrivacyOptions option.  Fix from Ted Rule of
300		Flextech TV.
301	Log invalid persistent host status file lines instead of
302		bouncing the message.  Problem noted by David Lindes of
303		DaveLtd Enterprises.
304	Move creation of empty sendmail.st file from installation to
305		compilation.  Installation may be done from a read-only
306		mount.  Fix from Bryan Costales of InfoBeat, Inc. and Ric
307		Anderson of the Oasis Research Center, Inc.
308	Enforce the maximum number of User Database entries limit.  Problem
309		noted by Gary Buchanan of Credence Systems Inc.
310	Allow dead.letter files in root's home directory.  Problem noted
311		by Anna Ullman of Sun Microsystems.
312	Program deliveries in forward files could be marked unsafe if
313		any directory listed in the ForwardPath option did not
314		exist.  Problem noted by Jorg Bielak of Coastal Web Online.
315	Do not trust the length of the address structure returned by
316		gethostbyname().  Problem noted by Chris Evans of Oxford
317		University.
318	If the SIZE= MAIL From: ESMTP parameter is too large, use the
319		5.3.4 DSN status code instead of 5.2.2.  Similarly, for
320		non-local deliveries, if the message is larger than the
321		mailer maximum message size, use 5.3.4 instead of 5.2.3.
322		Suggested by Antony Bowesman of
323		Fujitsu/TeaWARE Mail/MIME System.
324	Portability:
325		Fix the check for an IP address reverse lookup for
326			use in $&{client_name} on 64 bit platforms.
327			From Gilles Gallot of Institut for Development
328			and Resources in Intensive Scientific computing.
329		BSD-OS uses .0 for man page extensions.  From Jeff Polk
330			of BSDI.
331		DomainOS detection for Build.  Also, version 10.4 and later
332			ship a unistd.h.  Fixes from Takanobu Ishimura of
333			PICT Inc.
334		NeXT 4.x uses /usr/lib/man/cat for its man pages.  From
335			J. P. McCann of E I A.
336		SCO 4.X and 5.X include NDBM support.  From Vlado Potisk
337			of TEMPEST, Ltd.
338	CONFIG: Do not pass spoofed PTR results through resolver for
339		qualification.  Problem noted by Michiel Boland of
340		Digital Valley Internet Professionals; fix from
341		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
342	CONFIG: Do not try to resolve non-DNS hostnames such as UUCP,
343		BITNET, and DECNET addresses for resolvable senders.
344		Problem noted by Alexander Litvin of Lucky Net Ltd.
345	CONFIG: Work around Sun's broken configuration which sends bounce
346		messages as coming from @@hostname instead of <>.  LMTP
347		would not accept @@hostname.
348	OP.ME: Corrections to complex sendmail startup script from Rick
349		Troxel of the National Institutes of Health.
350	RMAIL: Do not install rmail by default, require 'make force-install'
351		as this rmail isn't the same as others.  Suggested by
352		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
353	New Files:
354		BuildTools/OS/DomainOS.10.4
355
3568.9.0/8.9.0	98/05/19
357	SECURITY: To prevent users from reading files not normally
358		readable, sendmail will no longer open forward, :include:,
359		class, ErrorHeader, or HelpFile files located in unsafe
360		(i.e. group or world writable) directory paths.  Sites
361		which need the ability to override security can use the
362		DontBlameSendmail option.  See the README file for more
363		information.
364	SECURITY: Problems can occur on poorly managed systems, specifically,
365		if maps or alias files are in world writable directories.
366		This fixes the change added to 8.8.6 to prevent links in these
367		world writable directories.
368	SECURITY: Make sure ServiceSwitchFile option file is not a link if
369		it is in a world writable directory.
370	SECURITY: Never pass a tty to a mailer -- if a mailer can get at the
371		tty it may be able to push bytes back to the senders input.
372		Unfortunately this breaks -v mode.  Problem noted by
373		Wietse Venema of the Global Security Analysis Lab at
374		IBM T.J. Watson Research.
375	SECURITY: Empty group list if DontInitGroups is set to true to
376		prevent program deliveries from picking up extra group
377		privileges.  Problem reported by Wolfgang Ley of DFN-CERT.
378	SECURITY: The default value for DefaultUser is now set to the uid and
379		gid of the first existing user mailnull, sendmail, or daemon
380		that has a non-zero uid.  If none of these exist, sendmail
381		reverts back to the old behavior of using uid 1 and gid 1.
382		This is a security problem for Linux which has chosen that
383		uid and gid for user bin instead of daemon.  If DefaultUser
384		is set in the configuration file, that value overrides this
385		default.
386	SECURITY: Since 8.8.7, the check for non-setuid binaries
387		interfered with setting an alternate group id for the
388		RunAsUser option.  Problem noted by Randall Winchester of
389		the University of Maryland.
390	Add support for Berkeley DB 2.X.  Based on patch from John Kennedy
391		of Cal State University, Chico.
392	Remove support for OLD_NEWDB (pre-1.5 version of Berkeley DB).  Users
393		which previously defined OLD_NEWDB=1 must now upgrade to the
394		current version of Berkeley DB.
395	Added support for regular expressions using the new map class regex.
396		From Jan Krueger of Unix-AG of University of Hannover.
397	Support for BIND 8.1.1's hesiod for hesiod maps and hesiod
398		UserDatabases from Randall Winchester of the University
399		of Maryland.
400	Allow any shell for user shell on program deliveries on V1
401		configurations for backwards compatibility on machines which
402		do not have getusershell().  Fix from John Beck of Sun
403		Microsystems.
404	On operating systems which change the process title by reusing the
405		argument vector memory, sendmail could corrupt memory if the
406		last argument was either "-q" or "-d".  Problem noted by
407		Frank Langbein of the University of Stuttgart.
408	Support Local Mail Transfer Protocol (LMTP) between sendmail and
409		mail.local on the F=z flag.
410	Macro-expand the contents of the ErrMsgFile.  Previously this was
411		only done if you had magic characters (0x81) to indicate
412		macro expansion.  Now $x will be expanded.  This means that
413		real dollar signs have to be backslash escaped.
414	TCP Wrappers expects "unknown" in the hostname argument if the 
415		reverse DNS lookup for the incoming connection fails.
416		Problem noted by Randy Grimshaw of Syracuse University and
417		Wietse Venema of the Global Security Analysis Lab at
418		IBM T.J. Watson Research.
419	DSN success bounces generated from an invocation of sendmail -t
420		would be sent to both the sender and MAILER-DAEMON.
421		Problem noted by Claus Assmann of
422		Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.
423	Avoid "Error 0" messages on delivery mailers which exit with a
424		valid exit value such as EX_NOPERM.  Fix from Andreas Luik
425		of ISA Informationssysteme GmbH.
426	Tokenize $&x expansions on right hand side of rules.  This eliminates
427		the need to use tricks like $(dequote "" $&{client_name} $)
428		to cause the ${client_name} macro to be properly tokenized.
429	Add the MaxRecipientsPerMessage option: this limits the number of
430		recipients that will be accepted in a single SMTP
431		transaction.  After this number is reached, sendmail
432		starts returning "452 Too many recipients" to all RCPT
433		commands.  This can be used to limit the number of recipients
434		per envelope (in particular, to discourage use of the server
435		for spamming).  Note: a better approach is to restrict
436		relaying entirely.
437	Fixed pointer initialization for LDAP lmap struct, fixed -s option
438		to ldapx map and added timeout for ldap_open call to
439		avoid hanging sendmail in the event of hung LDAP servers.
440		Patch from Booker Bense of Stanford University.
441	Allow multiple -qI, -qR, or -qS queue run limiters.  For example,
442		'-qRfoo -qRbar' would deliver mail to recipients with foo or
443		bar in their address.  Patch from Allan E Johannesen of
444		Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
445	The bestmx map will now return a list of the MX servers for a host if
446		passed a column delimiter via the -z map flag.  This can be
447		used to check if the server is an MX server for the recipient
448		of a message.  This can be used to help prevent relaying.
449		Patch from Mitchell Blank Jr of Exec-PC.
450	Mark failures for the *file* mailer and return bounce messages to the
451		sender for those failures.
452	Prevent bogus syslog timestamps on errors in sendmail.cf by
453		preserving the TZ environment variable until TimeZoneSpec
454		has been determined.  Problem noted by Ralf Hildebrandt of
455		Technical University of Braunschweig.  Patch from Per Hedeland
456		of Ericsson.
457	Print test input in address test mode when input is not from the tty
458		when the -v flag is given (i.e. sendmail -bt -v) to make
459		output easier to decipher.  Problem noted by Aidan Nichol
460		of Procter & Gamble.
461	The LDAP map -s flag was not properly parsed and the error message
462		given included the remainder of the arguments instead of 
463		solely the argument in error.  Problem noted by Aidan Nichol
464		of Procter & Gamble.
465	New DontBlameSendmail option.  This option allows administrators to
466		bypass some of sendmail's file security checks at the expense
467		of system security.  This should only be used if you are
468		absolutely sure you know the consequences.  The available
469		DontBlameSendmail options are:
470			Safe
471			AssumeSafeChown
472			ClassFileInUnsafeDirPath
473			ErrorHeaderInUnsafeDirPath

501	New DontProbeInterfaces option to turn off the inclusion of all the
502		interface names in $=w on startup.  In particular, if you
503		have lots of virtual interfaces, this option will speed up
504		startup.  However, unless you make other arrangements, mail
505		sent to those addresses will be bounced.
506	Automatically create alias databases if they don't exist and
507		AutoRebuildAliases is set.
508	Add PrivacyOptions=noetrn flag to disable the SMTP ETRN command.
509		Suggested by Christophe Wolfhugel of the Institut Pasteur.
510	Add PrivacyOptions=noverb flag to disable the SMTP VERB command.
511	When determining the client host name ($&{client_name} macro), do
512		a forward (A) DNS lookup on the result of the PTR lookup
513		and compare results.  If they differ or if the PTR lookup
514		fails, &{client_name} will contain the IP address
515		surrounded by square brackets (e.g. [127.0.0.1]).
516	New map flag: -Tx appends "x" to lookups that return temporary failure
517		(i.e, it is like -ax for the temporary failure case, in
518		contrast to the success case).
519	New syntax to do limited checking of header syntax.  A config line
520		of the form:
521			HHeader: $>Ruleset
522		causes the indicated Ruleset to be invoked on the Header
523		when read.  This ruleset works like the check_* rulesets --
524		that is, it can reject mail on the basis of the contents.
525	Limit the size of the HELO/EHLO parameter to prevent spammers
526		from hiding their connection information in Received:
527		headers.
528	When SingleThreadDelivery is active, deliveries to locked hosts
529		are skipped.  This will cause the delivering process to
530		try the next MX host or queue the message if no other MX
531		hosts are available.  Suggested by Alexander Litvin.
532	The [FILE] mailer type now delivers to the file specified in the
533		A= equate of the mailer definition instead of $u.  It also
534		obeys all of the F= mailer flags such as the MIME
535		7/8 bit conversion flags.  This is useful for defining
536		a mailer which delivers to the same file regardless of the
537		recipient (e.g. 'A=FILE /dev/null' to discard unwanted mail).
538	Do not assume the identity of a remote connection is root@localhost
539		if the remote connection closes the socket before the
540		remote identity can be queried.
541	Change semantics of the F=S mailer flag back to 8.7.5 behavior.
542		Some mailers, including procmail, require that the real
543		uid is left unchanged by sendmail.  Problem noted by Per
544		Hedeland of Ericsson.
545	No longer is the src/obj*/Makefile selected from a large list -- it
546		is now generated using the information in BuildTools/OS/ --
547		some of the details are determined dynamically via
548		BuildTools/bin/configure.sh.
549	The other programs in the sendmail distribution -- mail.local,
550		mailstats, makemap, praliases, rmail, and smrsh -- now use
551		the new Build method which creates an operating system
552		specific Makefile using the information in BuildTools.
553	Make 4xx reply codes to the SMTP MAIL command be non-sticky (i.e.,
554		a failure on one message won't affect future messages to the
555		same host).  This is necessary if the remote host sends
556		a 451 error if the domain of the sender does not resolve
557		as is common in anti-spam configurations.  Problem noted
558		by Mitchell Blank Jr of Exec-PC.
559	New "discard" mailer for check_* rulesets and header checking
560		rulesets.  If one of the above rulesets resolves to the
561		$#discard mailer, the commands will be accepted but the
562		message will be completely discarded after it is accepting.
563		This means that even if only one of the recipients
564		resolves to the $#discard mailer, none of the recipients
565		will receive the mail.  Suggested by Brian Kantor.
566	All but the last cloned envelope of a split envelope were queued
567		instead of being delivered.  Problem noted by John Caruso
568		of CNET: The Computer Network.
569	Fix deadlock situation in persistent host status file locking.
570	Syslog an error if a user forward file could not be read due to
571		an error.  Patch from John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
572	Use the first name returned on machine lookups when canonifying a
573		hostname via NetInfo.  Patch from Timm Wetzel of GWDG.
574	Clear the $&{client_addr}, $&{client_name}, and $&{client_port}
575		macros when delivering a bounce message to prevent
576		rejection by a check_compat ruleset which uses these macros.
577		Problem noted by Jens Hamisch of AgiX Internetservices GmbH.
578	If the check_relay ruleset resolves to the the error mailer, the
579		error in the $: portion of the resolved triplet is used
580		in the rejection message given to the remote machine.
581		Suggested by Scott Gifford of The Internet Ramp.
582	Set the $&{client_addr}, $&{client_name}, and $&{client_port} macros
583		before calling the check_relay ruleset.  Suggested by Scott
584		Gifford of The Internet Ramp.
585	Sendmail would get a segmentation fault if a mailer exited with an
586		exit code of 79.  Problem noted by Aaron Schrab of ExecPC
587		Internet.  Fix from Christophe Wolfhugel of the Pasteur
588		Institute.
589	Separate snprintf/vsnprintf routines into separate file for use by
590		mail.local.
591	Allow multiple map lookups on right hand side, e.g.,
592		R$*	$( host $1 $) $| $( passwd $1 $).  Patch from
593		Christophe Wolfhugel of the Pasteur Institute.
594	Properly generate success DSN messages if requested for aliases
595		which have owner- aliases.  Problem noted by Kari Hurtta
596		of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
597	Properly display delayed-expansion macros ($&{macroname}) in
598		address test mode (-bt).  Problem noted by Bryan Costales
599		of InfoBeat, Inc.
600	-qR could sometimes match names incorrectly.  Problem noted by
601		Lutz Euler of Lavielle EDV Systemberatung GmbH & Co.
602	Include a magic number and version in the StatusFile for the
603		mailstats command.
604	Record the number of rejected and discarded messages in the
605		StatusFile for display by the mailstats command.  Patch
606		from Randall Winchester of the University of Maryland.
607	IDENT returns where the OSTYPE field equals "OTHER" now list the
608		user portion as IDENT:username@site instead of
609		username@site to differentiate the two.  Suggested by
610		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
611	Enforce timeout for LDAP queries.  Patch from Per Hedeland of
612		Ericsson.
613	Change persistent host status filename substitution so '/' is
614		replaced by ':' instead of '|' to avoid clashes.  Also
615		avoid clashes with hostnames with leading dots.  Fix from
616		Mitchell Blank Jr. of Exec-PC.
617	If the system lock table is full, only attempt to create a new
618		queue entry five times before giving up.  Previously, it
619		was attempted indefinitely which could cause the partition
620		to run out of inodes.  Problem noted by Suzie Weigand of
621		Stratus Computer, Inc.
622	In verbose mode, warn if the sendmail.cf version is less than the
623		currently supported version.
624	Sorting for QueueSortOrder=host is now case insensitive.  Patch
625		from Randall S. Winchester of the University of Maryland.
626	Properly quote a full name passed via the -F command line option,
627		the Full-Name: header, or the NAME environment variable if
628		it contains characters which must be quoted.  Problem noted
629		by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
630	Avoid possible race condition that unlocked a mail job before
631		releasing the transcript file on systems that use flock(2).
632		In some cases, this might result in a "Transcript Unavailable"
633		message in error bounces.
634	Accept SMTP replies which contain only a reply code and no
635		accompanying text.  Problem noted by Fernando Fraticelli of
636		Digital Equipment Corporation.
637	Portability:
638		AIX 4.1 uses int for SOCKADDR_LEN_T from Motonori Nakamura
639			of Kyoto University.
640		AIX 4.2 requires <userpw.h> before <usersec.h>.  Patch from
641			Randall S. Winchester of the University of
642			Maryland.
643		AIX 4.3 from Valdis Kletnieks of Virginia Tech CNS.
644		CRAY T3E from Manu Mahonen of Center for Scientific Computing
645			in Finland.
646		Digital UNIX now uses statvfs for determining free
647			disk space.  Patch from Randall S. Winchester of
648			the University of Maryland.
649		HP-UX 11.x from Richard Allen of Opin Kerfi HF and
650			Regis McEwen of Progress Software Corporation.
651		IRIX 64 bit fixes from Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
652			Meteorological Institute.
653		IRIX 6.2 configuration fix for mail.local from Michael Kyle
654			of CIC/Advanced Computing Laboratory.
655		IRIX 6.5 from Thomas H Jones II of SGI.
656		IRIX 6.X load average code from Bob Mende of SGI.
657		QNX from Glen McCready <glen@qnx.com>.
658		SCO 4.2 and 5.x use /usr/bin instead of /usr/ucb for links
659			to sendmail.  Install with group bin instead of kmem
660			as kmem does not exist.  From Guillermo Freige of
661			Gobernacion de la Pcia de Buenos Aires and Paul
662			Fischer of BTG, Inc.
663		SunOS 4.X does not include memmove().  Patch from
664			Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
665		SunOS 5.7 includes getloadavg() function for determining
666			load average.  Patch from John Beck of Sun
667			Microsystems.
668	CONFIG: Increment version number of config file.
669	CONFIG: add DATABASE_MAP_TYPE to set the default type of database
670		map for the various maps.  The default is hash.  Patch from
671		Robert Harker of Harker Systems.
672	CONFIG: new confEBINDIR m4 variable for defining the executable
673		directory for certain programs.
674	CONFIG: new FEATURE(local_lmtp) to use the new LMTP support for
675		local mail delivery.  By the default, /usr/libexec/mail.local
676		is used.  This is expected to be the mail.local shipped
677		with 8.9 which is LMTP capable.  The path is based on the
678		new confEBINDIR m4 variable.
679	CONFIG: Use confEBINDIR in determining path to smrsh for
680		FEATURE(smrsh).  Note that this changes the default from
681		/usr/local/etc/smrsh to /usr/libexec/smrsh.  To obtain the
682		old path for smrsh, use FEATURE(smrsh, /usr/local/etc/smrsh).
683	CONFIG: DOMAIN(generic) changes the default confFORWARD_PATH to
684		include $z/.forward.$w+$h and $z/.forward+$h which allow
685		the user to setup different .forward files for
686		user+detail addressing.
687	CONFIG: add confMAX_RCPTS_PER_MESSAGE, confDONT_PROBE_INTERFACES,
688		and confDONT_BLAME_SENDMAIL to set MaxRecipientsPerMessage,
689		DontProbeInterfaces, and DontBlameSendmail options.
690	CONFIG: by default do not allow relaying (that is, accepting mail
691		from outside your domain and sending it to another host
692		outside your domain).
693	CONFIG: new FEATURE(promiscuous_relay) to allow mail relaying from
694		any site to any site.
695	CONFIG: new FEATURE(relay_entire_domain) allows any host in your
696		domain as defined by the 'm' class ($=m) to relay.
697	CONFIG: new FEATURE(relay_based_on_MX) to allow relaying based on
698		the MX records of the host portion of an incoming recipient.
699	CONFIG: new FEATURE(access_db) which turns on the access database
700		feature.  This database give you the ability to allow
701		or refuse to accept mail from specified domains for
702		administrative reasons.  By default, names that are listed
703		as "OK" in the access db are domain names, not host names.
704	CONFIG: new confCR_FILE m4 variable for defining the name of the file
705		used for class 'R'.  Defaults to /etc/mail/relay-domains.
706	CONFIG: new command RELAY_DOMAIN(domain) and RELAY_DOMAIN_FILE(file)
707		to add items to class 'R' ($=R) for hosts allowed to relay.
708	CONFIG: new FEATURE(relay_hosts_only) to change the behavior
709		of FEATURE(access_db) and class 'R' to lookup individual
710		host names only.
711	CONFIG: new FEATURE(loose_relay_check).  Normally, if a recipient
712		using % addressing is used, e.g.  user%site@othersite,
713		and othersite is in class 'R', the check_rcpt ruleset
714		will strip @othersite and recheck user@site for relaying.
715		This feature changes that behavior.  It should not be
716		needed for most installations.
717	CONFIG: new FEATURE(relay_local_from) to allow relaying if the
718		domain portion of the mail sender is a local host.  This
719		should only be used if absolutely necessary as it opens
720		a window for spammers.  Patch from Randall S. Winchester of
721		the University of Maryland.
722	CONFIG: new FEATURE(blacklist_recipients) turns on the ability to
723		block incoming mail destined for certain recipient
724		usernames, hostnames, or addresses.
725	CONFIG: By default, MAIL FROM: commands in the SMTP session will be
726		refused if the host part of the argument to MAIL FROM: cannot
727		be located in the host name service (e.g., DNS).
728	CONFIG: new FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains) accepts
729		unresolvable hostnames in MAIL FROM: SMTP commands.
730	CONFIG: new FEATURE(accept_unqualified_senders) accepts
731		MAIL FROM: senders which do not include a domain.
732	CONFIG: new FEATURE(rbl) Turns on rejection of hosts found in the
733		Realtime Blackhole List.  You can specify the RBL name
734		server to contact by specifying it as an optional argument.
735		The default is rbl.maps.vix.com.  For details, see
736		http://maps.vix.com/rbl/.
737	CONFIG: Call Local_check_relay, Local_check_mail, and
738		Local_check_rcpt from check_relay, check_mail, and
739		check_rcpt.  Users with local rulesets should place the
740		rules using LOCAL_RULESETS.  If a Local_check_* ruleset
741		returns $#OK, the message is accepted.  If the ruleset
742		returns a mailer, the appropriate action is taken, else
743		the return of the ruleset is ignored.
744	CONFIG: CYRUS_MAILER_FLAGS now includes the /:| mailer flags by
745		default to support file, :include:, and program deliveries.
746	CONFIG: Remove the default for confDEF_USER_ID so the binary can
747		pick the proper default value.  See the SECURITY note
748		above for more information.
749	CONFIG: FEATURE(nodns) now warns the user that the feature is a
750		no-op.  Patch from Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
751		Meteorological Institute.
752	CONFIG: OSTYPE(osf1) now sets DefaultUserID (confDEF_USER_ID) to
753		daemon since DEC's /bin/mail will drop the envelope
754		sender if run as mailnull.  See the Digital UNIX section
755		of src/README for more information.  Problem noted by
756		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
757	CONFIG: .cf files are now stored in the same directory with the
758		.mc files instead of in the obj directory.
759	CONFIG: New options confSINGLE_LINE_FROM_HEADER, 
760		confALLOW_BOGUS_HELO, and confMUST_QUOTE_CHARS for
761		setting SingleLineFromHeader, AllowBogusHELO, and
762		MustQuoteChars respectively.
763	MAIL.LOCAL: support -l flag to run LMTP on stdin/stdout.  This
764		SMTP-like protocol allows detailed reporting of delivery
765		status on a per-user basis.  Code donated by John Myers of
766		CMU (now of Netscape).
767	MAIL.LOCAL: HP-UX support from Randall S. Winchester of the
768		University of Maryland.  NOTE: mail.local is not 
769		compatible with the stock HP-UX mail format.  Be sure to
770		read mail.local/README.
771	MAIL.LOCAL: Prevent other mail delivery agents from stealing a
772		mailbox lock.  Patch from Randall S. Winchester of the
773		University of Maryland.
774	MAIL.LOCAL: glibc portability from John Kennedy of Cal State
775		University, Chico.
776	MAIL.LOCAL: IRIX portability from Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
777		Meteorological Institute.
778	MAILSTATS: Display the number of rejected and discarded messages
779		in the StatusFile.  Patch from Randall Winchester of the
780		University of Maryland.
781	MAKEMAP: New -s flag to ignore safety checks on database map files
782		such as linked files in world writable directories.
783	MAKEMAP: Add support for Berkeley DB 2.X.  Remove OLD_NEWDB support.
784	PRALIASES: Add support for Berkeley DB 2.X.
785	PRALIASES: Do not automatically include NDBM support.  Problem
786		noted by Ralf Hildebrandt of the Technical University of
787		Braunschweig.
788	RMAIL: Improve portability for other platforms.  Patches from
789		Randall S. Winchester of the University of Maryland and
790		Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
791	Changed Files:
792		src/Makefiles/Makefile.* files have been modified to use

8788.8.8/8.8.8	97/10/24
879	If the check_relay ruleset failed, the relay= field was logged
880		incorrectly.  Problem noted by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
881		Meteorological Institute.
882	If /usr/tmp/dead.letter already existed, sendmail could not
883		add additional bounces to it.  Problem noted by Thomas J.
884		Arseneault of SRI International.
885	If an SMTP mailer used a non-standard port number for the outgoing
886		connection, it would be displayed incorrectly in verbose mode.
887		Problem noted by John Kennedy of Cal State University, Chico.
888	Log the ETRN parameter specified by the client before altering them
889		to internal form.  Suggested by Bob Kupiec of GES-Verio.
890	EXPN and VRFY SMTP commands on malformed addresses were logging as
891		User unknown with bogus delay= values.  Change them to log
892		the same as compliant addresses.  Problem noted by Kari E.
893		Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
894	Ignore the debug resolver option unless using sendmail debug trace
895		option for resolver.  Problem noted by Greg Nichols of Wind
896		River Systems.
897	If SingleThreadDelivery was enabled and the remote server returned a
898		protocol error on the DATA command, the connection would be
899		closed but the persistent host status file would not be
900		unlocked so other sendmail processes could not deliver to
901		that host.  Problem noted by Peter Wemm of DIALix.
902	If queueing up a message due to an expensive mailer, don't increment
903		the number of delivery attempts or set the last delivery
904		attempt time so the message will be delivered on the next
905		queue run regardless of MinQueueAge.  Problem noted by
906		Brian J. Coan of the Institute for Global Communications.
907	Authentication warnings of "Processed from queue _directory_" and
908		"Processed by _username_ with -C _filename_" would be logged
909		with the incorrect timestamp.  Problem noted by Kari E. Hurtta
910		of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
911	Use a better heuristic for detecting GDBM.
912	Log null connections on dropped connections.  Problem noted by
913		Jon Lewis of Florida Digital Turnpike.
914	If class dbm maps are rebuilt, sendmail will now detect this and
915		reopen the map.  Previously, they could give stale
916		results during a single message processing (but would
917		recover when the next message was received).  Fix from
918		Joe Pruett of Q7 Enterprises.
919	Do not log failures such as "User unknown" on -bv or SMTP VRFY
920		requests.  Problem noted by Kari E. Hurtta of the
921		Finnish Meteorological Institute.
922	Do not send a bounce message back to the sender regarding bad
923		recipients if the SMTP connection is dropped before the
924		message is accepted.  Problem noted by Kari E. Hurtta of the
925		Finnish Meteorological Institute.
926	Use "localhost" instead of "[UNIX: localhost]" when connecting to
927		sendmail via a UNIX pipe.  This will allow rulesets using
928		$&{client_name} to process without sending the string through
929		dequote.  Problem noted by Alan Barrett of Internet Africa.
930	A combination of deferred delivery mode, a double bounce situation,
931		and the inability to save a bounce message to
932		/var/tmp/dead.letter would cause sendmail to send a bounce
933		to postmaster but not remove the offending envelope from the
934		queue causing it to create a new bounce message each time the
935		queue was run.  Problem noted by Brad Doctor of Net Daemons
936		Associates.
937	Remove newlines from hostname information returned via DNS.  There are
938		no known security implications of newlines in hostnames as
939		sendmail filters newlines in all vital areas; however, this
940		could cause confusing error messages.
941	Starting with sendmail 8.8.6, mail sent with the '-t' option would be
942		rejected if any of the specified addresses were bad.  This
943		behavior was modified to only reject the bad addresses and not
944		the entire message.  Problem noted by Jozsef Hollosi of
945		SuperNet, Inc.
946	Use Timeout.fileopen when delivering mail to a file.  Suggested by
947		Bryan Costales of InfoBeat, Inc.
948	Display the proper Final-Recipient on DSN messages for non-SMTP
949		mailers.  Problem noted by Kari E. Hurtta of the
950		Finnish Meteorological Institute.
951	An error in calculating the available space in the list of addresses
952		for logging deliveries could cause an address to be silently
953		dropped.
954	Include the initial user environment if sendmail is restarted via
955		a HUP signal.  This will give room for the process title.
956		Problem noted by Jon Lewis of Florida Digital Turnpike.
957	Mail could be delivered without a body if the machine does not
958		support flock locking and runs out of processes during
959		delivery.  Fix from Chuck Lever of the University of Michigan.
960	Drop recipient address from 251 and 551 SMTP responses per RFC 821.
961		Problem noted by Kari E. Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological
962		Institute.
963	Make sure non-rebuildable database maps are opened before the
964		rebuildable maps (i.e. alias files) in case the database maps
965		are needed for verifying the left hand side of the aliases.
966		Problem noted by Lloyd Parkes of Victoria University.
967	Make sure sender RFC822 source route addresses are alias expanded for
968		bounce messages.  Problem noted by Juergen Georgi of
969		RUS University of Stuttgart.
970	Minor lint fixes.
971	Return a temporary error instead of a permanent error if an LDAP map
972		search returns an error.  This will allow sequenced maps which
973		use other LDAP servers to be checked.  Fix from Booker Bense
974		of Stanford University.
975	When automatically converting from quoted printable to 8bit text do
976		not pad bare linefeeds with a space.  Problem noted by Theo
977		Nolte of the University of Technology Aachen, Germany.
978	Portability:
979		Non-standard C compilers may have had a problem compiling
980			conf.c due to a standard C external declaration of
981			setproctitle().  Problem noted by Ted Roberts of
982			Electronic Data Systems.
983		AUX: has a broken O_EXCL implementation.  Reported by Jim
984			Jagielski of jaguNET Access Services.
985		BSD/OS: didn't compile if HASSETUSERCONTEXT was defined.
986		Digital UNIX: Digital UNIX (and possibly others) moves
987			loader environment variables into the loader memory
988			area.  If one of these environment variables (such as
989			LD_LIBRARY_PATH) was the last environment variable,
990			an invalid memory address would be used by the process
991			title routine causing memory corruption.  Problem
992			noted by Sam Hartman of Mesa Internet Systems.
993		GNU libc: uses an enum for _PC_CHOWN_RESTRICTED which caused
994			chownsafe() to always return 0 even if the OS does
995			not permit file giveaways.  Problem noted by
996			Yasutaka Sumi of The University of Tokyo.
997		IRIX6: Syslog buffer size set to 512 bytes.  Reported by 
998			Gerald Rinske of Siemens Business Services VAS.
999		Linux: Pad process title with NULLs.  Problem noted by
1000			Jon Lewis of Florida Digital Turnpike.
1001		SCO OpenServer 5.0: SIOCGIFCONF ioctl call returns an
1002			incorrect value for the number of interfaces.
1003			Problem noted by Chris Loelke of JetStream Internet
1004			Services.
1005		SINIX: Update for Makefile and syslog buffer size from Gerald
1006			Rinske of Siemens Business Services VAS.
1007		Solaris: Make sure HASGETUSERSHELL setting for SunOS is not
1008			used on a Solaris machine.  Problem noted by
1009			Stephen Ma of Jtec Pty Limited.
1010		CONFIG: SINIX: Update from Gerald Rinske of Siemens Business
1011			Services VAS.
1012	MAKEMAP: Use a better heuristic for detecting GDBM.
1013	CONTRIB: expn.pl: Updated version from the author, David Muir Sharnoff.
1014	OP.ME: Document the F=i mailer flag.  Problem noted by Per Hedeland of
1015			Ericsson.
1016
10178.8.7/8.8.7	97/08/03
1018	If using Berkeley DB on systems without O_EXLOCK (open a file with
1019		an exclusive lock already set -- i.e., almost all systems
1020		except 4.4-BSD derived systems), the initial attempt at
1021		rebuilding aliases file if the database didn't already
1022		exist would fail.  Patch from Raymund Will of LST Software
1023		GmbH.
1024	Bogus incoming SMTP commands would reset the SMTP conversation.
1025		Problem noted by Fredrik J�nsson of the Royal Institute
1026		of Technology, Stockholm.
1027	Since TCP Wrappers includes setenv(), unsetenv(), and putenv(),
1028		some environments could give "multiple definitions" for these
1029		routines during compilation.  If using TCP Wrappers, assume
1030		that these routines are included as though they were in the
1031		C library.  Patch from Robert La Ferla.
1032	When a NEWDB database map was rebuilt at the same time it was being
1033		used by a queue run, the maps could be left locked for the
1034		duration of the queue run, causing other processes to hang.
1035		Problem noted by Kendall Libby of Shore.NET.
1036	In some cases, NoRecipientAction=add-bcc was being ignored, so the
1037		mail was passed on without any recipient header.  This could
1038		cause problems downstream.  Problem noted by Xander Jansen
1039		of SURFnet ExpertiseCentrum.
1040	Give error when GDBM is used with sendmail.  GDBM's locking and
1041		linking of the .dir and .pag files interferes with sendmail's
1042		locking and security checks.  Problems noted by Fyodor
1043		Yarochkin of the Kyrgyz Republic FreeNet.
1044	Don't fsync qf files if SuperSafe option is not set.
1045	Avoid extra calls to gethostbyname for addresses for which a
1046		gethostbyaddr found no value.  Also, ignore any returns
1047		from gethostbyaddr that look like a dotted quad.
1048	If PTR lookup fails when looking up an SMTP peer, don't tag it as
1049		"may be forged", since at the network level we pretty much
1050		have to assume that the information is good.
1051	In some cases, errors during an SMTP session could leave files
1052		open or locked.
1053	Better handling of missing file descriptors (0, 1, 2) on startup.
1054	Better handling of non-setuid binaries -- avoids certain obnoxious
1055		errors during testing.
1056	Errors in file locking of NEWDB maps had the incorrect file name
1057		printed in the error message.
1058	If the AllowBogusHELO option were set and an EHLO with a bad or
1059		missing parameter were issued, the EHLO behaved like a HELO.
1060	Load limiting never kicked in for incoming SMTP transactions if the
1061		DeliveryMode=background and any recipient was an alias or
1062		had a .forward file.  From Nik Conwell of Boston University.
1063	On some non-Posix systems, the decision of whether chown(2) permits
1064		file giveaway was undefined.  From Tetsu Ushijima of the
1065		Tokyo Institute of Technology.
1066	Fix race condition that could cause the body of a message to be
1067		lost (so only the header was delivered).  This only occurs
1068		on systems that do not use flock(2), and only when a queue
1069		runner runs during a critical section in another message
1070		delivery.  Based on a patch from Steve Schweinhart of
1071		Results Computing.
1072	If a qf file was found in a mail queue directory that had a problem
1073		(wrong ownership, bad format, etc.) and the file name was
1074		exactly MAXQFNAME bytes long, then instead of being tried
1075		once, it would be tried on every queue run.  Problem noted
1076		by Bryan Costales of Mercury Mail.
1077	If the system supports an st_gen field in the status structure,
1078		include it when reporting that a file has changed after open.
1079		This adds a new compile flag, HAS_ST_GEN (0/1 option).
1080		This out to be checked as well as reported, since it is
1081		theoretically possible for an attacker to remove a file after
1082		it is opened and replace it with another file that has the
1083		same i-number, but some filesystems (notably AFS) return
1084		garbage in this field, and hence always look like the file
1085		has changed.  As a practical matter this is not a security
1086		problem, since the files can be neither hard nor soft links,
1087		and on no filesystem (that I am aware of) is it possible to
1088		have two files on the same filesystem with the same i-number
1089		simultaneously.
1090	Delete the root Makefile from the distribution -- it is only for
1091		use internally, and does not work at customer sites.
1092	Fix botch that caused the second MAIL FROM: command in a single
1093		transaction to clear the entire transaction.  Problem
1094		noted by John Kennedy of Cal State University, Chico.
1095	Work properly on machines that have _PATH_VARTMP defined without
1096		a trailing slash.  (And a pox on vendors that decide to
1097		ignore the established conventions!)  Problem noted by
1098		Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1099	Internal changes to make it easier to add another protocol family
1100		(intended for IPv6).  Patches are from John Kennedy of
1101		CSU Chico.
1102	In certain cases, 7->8 bit MIME decoding of Base64 text could leave
1103		an extra space at the beginning of some lines.  Problem
1104		noted by Charles Karney of Princeton University; fix based
1105		on a patch from Christophe Wolfhugel.
1106	Portability:
1107		Allow _PATH_VENDOR_CF to be set in Makefile for consistency
1108			with the _Sendmail_ book, 2nd edition.  Note that
1109			the book is actually wrong: _PATH_SENDMAILCF should
1110			be used instead.
1111		AIX 3.x: Include <sys/select.h>.  Patch from Gene Rackow
1112			of Argonne National Laboratory.
1113		OpenBSD from from Paul DuBois of the University of Wisconsin.
1114		RISC/os 4.0 from Paul DuBois of the University of Wisconsin.
1115		SunOS: Include <memory.h> to fix warning from util.c.  From
1116			James Aldridge of EUnet Ltd.
1117		Solaris: Change STDIR (location of status file) to /etc/mail
1118			in Makefiles.
1119		Linux, Dynix, UNICOS: Remove -DNDBM and -lgdbm from
1120			Makefiles.  Use NEWDB on Linux instead.
1121		NCR MP-RAS 3.x with STREAMware TCP/IP: SIOCGIFNUM ioctl
1122			exists but behaves differently than other OSes.
1123			Add SIOCGIFNUM_IS_BROKEN compile flag to get
1124			around the problem.  Problem noted by Tom Moore of
1125			NCR Corp.
1126		HP-UX 9.x: fix compile warnings for old select API.  Problem
1127			noted by Tom Smith of Digital Equipment Corp.
1128		UnixWare 2.x: compile warnings on offsetof macro.  Problem
1129			noted by Tom Good of the Community Access Information
1130			Resource Network
1131		SCO 4.2: compile problems caused by a change in the type of
1132			the "length" parameters passed to accept, getpeername,
1133			getsockname, and getsockopt.  Adds new compile flags
1134			SOCKADDR_SIZE_T and SOCKOPT_SIZE_T.  Problem reported
1135			by Tom Good of St. Vincent's North Richmond Community
1136			Mental Health Center Residential Services.
1137		AIX 4: Use size_t for SOCKADDR_SIZE_T and SOCKOPT_SIZE_T.
1138			Suggested by Brett Hogden of Rochester Gas & Electric
1139			Corp.
1140		Linux: avoid compile problem for versions of <setjmp.h> that
1141			#define both setjmp and longjmp.  Problem pointed out
1142			by J.R. Oldroyd of TerraNet.
1143		CONFIG: SCO UnixWare 2.1: Support for OSTYPE(sco-uw-2.1)
1144			from Christopher Durham of SCO.
1145		CONFIG: NEXTSTEP: define confCW_FILE to
1146			/etc/sendmail/sendmail.cw to match the usual
1147			configuration.  Patch from Dennis Glatting of
1148			PlainTalk.
1149	CONFIG: MAILER(fax) called a program that hasn't existed for a long
1150		time.  Convert to use the HylaFAX 4.0 conventions.  Suggested
1151		by Harry Styron.
1152	CONFIG: Improve sample anti-spam rulesets in cf/cf/knecht.mc.  These
1153		are the rulesets in use on sendmail.org.
1154	MAKEMAP: give error on GDBM files.
1155	MAIL.LOCAL: Make error messages a bit more explicit, for example,
1156		telling more details on what actually changed when "file
1157		changed after open".
1158	CONTRIB: etrn.pl: Ignore comments in Fw files.  Support multiple Fw
1159		files.
1160	CONTRIB: passwd-to-alias.pl: Handle 8 bit characters and '-'.

1175	    *************************************************************
1176	SECURITY: A few systems allow an open with the O_EXCL|O_CREAT open
1177		mode bits set to create a file that is a symbolic link that
1178		points nowhere.  This makes it possible to create a root
1179		owned file in an arbitrary directory by inserting the symlink
1180		into a writable directory after the initial lstat(2) check
1181		determined that the file did not exist.  The only verified
1182		example of a system having these odd semantics for O_EXCL
1183		and symbolic links was HP-UX prior to version 9.07.  Most
1184		systems do not have the problem, since a exclusive create
1185		of a file disallows symbolic links.  Systems that have been
1186		verified to NOT have the problem include AIX 3.x, *BSD,
1187		DEC OSF/1, HP-UX 9.07 and higher, Linux, SunOS, Solaris,
1188		and Ultrix.  This is a potential exposure on systems that
1189		have this bug and which do not have a MAILER-DAEMON alias
1190		pointing at a legitimate account, since this will cause old
1191		mail to be dropped in /var/tmp/dead.letter.
1192	SECURITY: Problems can occur on poorly managed systems, specifically,
1193		if maps or alias files are in world writable directories.
1194		If your system has alias maps in writable directories, it
1195		is potentially possible for an attacker to replace the .db
1196		(or .dir and .pag) files by symbolic links pointing at
1197		another database; this can be used either to expose
1198		information (e.g., by pointing an alias file at /etc/spwd.db
1199		and probing for accounts), or as a denial-of-service attack
1200		(by trashing the password database).  The fix disallows
1201		symbolic links entirely when rebuilding alias files or on
1202		maps that are in writable directories, and always warns on
1203		writable directories; 8.9 will probably consider writable
1204		directories to be fatal errors.  This does not represent an
1205		exposure on systems that have alias files in unwritable
1206		system directories.
1207	SECURITY: disallow .forward or :include: files that are links (hard
1208		or soft) if the parent directory (or any directory in the
1209		path) is writable by anyone other than the owner.  This is
1210		similar to the previous case for user files.  This change
1211		should not affect most systems, but is necessary to prevent
1212		an attacker who can write the directory from pointing such
1213		files at other files that are readable only by the owner.
1214	SECURITY: Tighten safechown rules: many systems will say that they
1215		have a safe (restricted to root) chown even on files that
1216		are mounted from another system that allows owners to give
1217		away files.  The new rules are very strict, trusting file
1218		ownership only in those few cases where the system has
1219		been verified to be at least as paranoid as necessary.
1220		However, it is possible to relax the rules to partially
1221		trust the ownership if the directory path is not world or
1222		group writable.  This might allow someone who has a legitimate
1223		:include: file (referenced directly from /etc/aliases) to
1224		become another non-root user if the :include: file is in a
1225		non-writable directory on an NFS-mounted filesystem where
1226		the local system says that giveaway is denied but it is
1227		actually permitted.  I believe this to be a very small set
1228		of cases.  If in doubt, do not point :include: aliases at
1229		NFS-mounted filesystems.
1230	SECURITY: When setting a numeric group id using the RunAsUser option
1231		(e.g., "O RunAsUser=10:20", the group id would not be set.
1232		Implicit group ids (e.g., "O RunAsUser=mailnull") or alpha
1233		group ids (e.g., "O RunAsUser=mailuser:mailgrp") worked fine.
1234		The user id was still set properly.  Problem noted by Uli
1235		Pralle of the Technical University of Berlin.
1236	Save the initial gid set for use when checking for if the
1237		PrivacyOptions=restrictmailq option is set.  Problem reported
1238		by Wolfgang Ley of DFN-CERT.
1239	Make 55x reply codes to the SMTP DATA-"." be non-sticky (i.e., a
1240		failure on one message won't affect future messages to the
1241		same host).
1242	IP source route printing had an "off by one" error that would
1243		affect any options that came after the route option.  Patch
1244		from Theo de Raadt.
1245	The "Message is too large" error didn't successfully bounce the error
1246		back to the sender.  Problem reported by Stephen More of
1247		PSI; patch from Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1248	Change SMTP status code 553 to map into Extended code 5.1.0 (instead
1249		of 5.1.3); it apparently gets used in multiple ways.
1250		Suggested by John Myers of Portola Communications.
1251	Fix possible extra null byte generated during collection if errors
1252		occur at the beginning of the stream.  Patch contributed by
1253		Andrey A. Chernov and Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1254	Code changes to avoid possible reentrant call of malloc/free within
1255		a signal handler.  Problem noted by John Beck of Sun
1256		Microsystems.
1257	Move map initialization to be earlier so that check_relay ruleset
1258		will have the latest version of the map data.  Problem noted
1259		by Paul Forgey of Metainfo; patch from Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1260	If there are fatal errors during the collection phase (e.g., message
1261		too large) don't send the bogus message.
1262	Avoid "cannot open xfAAA00000" messages when sending to aliases that
1263		have errors and have owner- aliases.  Problem noted by Michael
1264		Barber of MTU; fix from Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1265	Avoid null pointer dereference on illegal Boundary= parameters in
1266		multipart/mixed Content-Type: header.  Problem noted by
1267		Richard Muirden of RMIT University.
1268	Always print error messages during newaliases (-bi) even if the
1269		ErrorMode is not set to "print".  Fix from Gregory Neil
1270		Shapiro.
1271	Test mode could core dump if you did a /map lookup in an optional map
1272		that could not be opened.  Based on a fix from John Beck of
1273		Sun Microsystems.
1274	If DNS is misconfigured so that the last MX record tried points to
1275		a host that does not have an A record, but other MX records
1276		pointed to something reasonable, don't bounce the message
1277		with a "host unknown" error.  Note that this should really
1278		be fixed in the zone file for the domain.  Problem noted by
1279		Joe Rhett of Navigist, Inc.
1280	If a map fails (e.g., DNS times out) on all recipient addresses, mark
1281		the message as having been tried; otherwise the next queue
1282		run will not realize that this is a second attempt and will
1283		retry immediately.  Problem noted by Bryan Costales of
1284		Mercury Mail.
1285	If the clock is set backwards, and a MinQueueAge is set, no jobs
1286		will be run until the later setting of the clock is reached.
1287		"Problem" (I use the term loosely) noted by Eric Hagberg of
1288		Morgan Stanley.
1289	If the load average rises above the cutoff threshold (above which
1290		sendmail will not process the queue at all) during a queue
1291		run, abort the queue run immediately.  Problem noted by
1292		Bryan Costales of Mercury Mail.
1293	The variable queue processing algorithm (based on the message size,
1294		number of recipients, message precedence, and job age) was
1295		non-functional -- either the entire queue was processed or
1296		none of the queue was processed.  The updated algorithm
1297		does no queue run if a single recipient zero size job will
1298		not be run.
1299	If there is a fatal ("panic") message that will cause sendmail to
1300		die immediately, never hold the error message for future
1301		printing.
1302	Force ErrorMode=print in -bt mode so that all errors are printed
1303		regardless of the setting of the ErrorMode option in the
1304		configuration file.  Patch from Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1305	New compile flag HASSTRERROR says that this OS has the strerror(3)
1306		routine available in one of the libraries.  Use it in conf.h.
1307	The -m (match only) flag now works on host class maps.
1308	If class hash or btree maps are rebuilt, sendmail will now detect
1309		this and reopen the map.  Previously, they could give
1310		erroneous results during a single message processing
1311		(but would recover when the next message was received).
1312	Don't delete zero length queue files when doing queue runs until the
1313		files are at least ten minutes old.  This avoids a potential
1314		race condition: the creator creates the qf file, getting back
1315		a file descriptor.  The queue runner locks it and deletes it
1316		because it is zero length.  The creator then writes the
1317		descriptor that is now for a disconnected file, and the
1318		job goes away.  Based on a suggestion by Bryan Costales.
1319	When determining the "validated" host name ($_ macro), do a forward
1320		(A) DNS lookup on the result of the PTR lookup and compare
1321		results.  If they differ or if the PTR lookup fails, tag the
1322		address as "may be forged".
1323	Log null connections (i.e., hosts that connect but do not do any
1324		substantive activity on the connection before disconnecting;
1325		"substantive" is defined to be MAIL, EXPN, VRFY, or ETRN.
1326	Always permit "writes" to /dev/null regardless of the link count.
1327		This is safe because /dev/null is special cased, and no open
1328		or write is ever actually attempted.  Patch from Villy Kruse
1329		of TwinCom.
1330	If a message cannot be sent because of a 552 (exceeded storage
1331		allocation) response to the MAIL FROM:<>, and a SIZE= parameter
1332		was given, don't return the body in the bounce, since there
1333		is a very good chance that the message will double-bounce.
1334	Fix possible line truncation if a quoted-printable had an =00 escape
1335		in the body.  Problem noted by Charles Karney of the Princeton
1336		Plasma Physics Laboratory.
1337	Notify flags (e.g., -NSUCCESS) were lost on user+detail addresses.
1338		Problem noted by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological
1339		Institute.
1340	The MaxDaemonChildren option wasn't applying to queue runs as
1341		documented.  Note that this increases the potential denial
1342		of service problems with this option: an attacker can
1343		connect many times, and thereby lock out queue runs as well
1344		as incoming connections.  If you use this option, you should
1345		run the "sendmail -bd" and "sendmail -q30m" jobs separately
1346		to avoid this attack.  Failure to limit noted by Matthew
1347		Dillon of BEST Internet Communications.
1348	Always give a message in newaliases if alias files cannot be
1349		opened instead of failing silently.  Suggested by Gregory
1350		Neil Shapiro.  This change makes the code match the O'Reilly
1351		book (2nd edition).
1352	Some older versions of the resolver could return with h_errno == -1
1353		if no name server could be reached, causing mail to bounce
1354		instead of queueing.  Treat this like TRY_AGAIN.  Fix from
1355		John Beck of SunSoft.
1356	If a :include: file is owned by a user that does not have an entry
1357		in the passwd file, sendmail could dereference a null pointer.
1358		Problem noted by Satish Mynam of Sun Microsystems.
1359	Take precautions to make sure that the SMTP protocol cannot get out
1360		of sync if (for example) an alias file cannot be opened.
1361	Fix a possible race condition that can cause a SIGALRM to come in
1362		immediately after a SIGHUP, causing the new sendmail to die.
1363	Avoid possible hang on SVr3 systems when doing child reaping.  Patch
1364		from Villy Kruse of TwinCom.
1365	Ignore improperly formatted SMTP reply codes.  Previously these were
1366		partially processed, which could cause confusing error
1367		returns.
1368	Fix possible bogus pointer dereference when doing ldapx map lookups
1369		on some architectures.
1370	Portability:
1371		A/UX: from Jim Jagielski of NASA/GSFC.
1372		glibc: SOCK_STREAM was changed from a #define to an enum,
1373			thus breaking #ifdef SOCK_STREAM.  Only option seems
1374			to be to assume SOCK_STREAM if __GNU_LIBRARY__ is
1375			defined.  Problem reported by A Sun of the University
1376			of Washington.
1377		Solaris: use SIOCGIFNUM to get the number of interfaces on
1378			the system rather than guessing at compile time.
1379			Patch contributed by John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
1380		Intel Paragon: from Wendy Lin of Purdue University.
1381		GNU Hurd: from Miles Bader of the GNU project.
1382		RISC/os 4.50 from Harlan Stenn of PFCS Corporation.
1383		ISC Unix: wait never returns if SIGCLD signals are blocked.
1384			Unfortunately releasing them opens a race condition,
1385			but there appears to be no fix for this.  Patch from
1386			Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1387		BIND 8.1 for IPv6 compatibility from John Kennedy.
1388		Solaris: a bug in strcasecmp caused characters with the
1389			high order bit set to apparently randomly match
1390			letters -- for example, $| (0233) matches "i" and "I".
1391			Problem noted by John Gregson of the University of
1392			Cambridge.
1393		IRIX 6.x: make Makefile.IRIX.6.2 apply to all 6.x.  From
1394			Kari Hurtta.
1395		IRIX 6.x: Create Makefiles for systems that claim to be
1396			IRIX64 but are 6.2 or higher (so use the regular
1397			IRIX Makefile).
1398		IRIX 6.x: Fix load average computation on 64 bit kernels.
1399			Problem noted by Eric Hagberg of Morgan Stanley.
1400	CONFIG: Some canonification was still done for UUCP-like addresses
1401		even if FEATURE(nocanonify) was set.  Problem pointed out by
1402		Brian Candler.
1403	CONFIG: In some cases UUCP mailers wouldn't properly recognize all
1404		local names as local.  Problem noted by Jeff Polk of BSDI;
1405		fix provided by Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1406	CONFIG: The "local:user" syntax entries in mailertables and other
1407		"mailer:user" syntax locations returned an incorrect value
1408		for the $h macro.  Problem noted by Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1409	CONFIG: Retain "+detail" information when forwarding mail to a
1410		MAIL_HUB, LUSER_RELAY, or LOCAL_RELAY.  Patch from Philip
1411		Guenther of Gustavus Adolphus College.
1412	CONFIG: Make sure user+detail works for FEATURE(virtusertable);
1413		rules are the same as for aliasing.  Based on a patch from
1414		Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1415	CONFIG: Break up parsing rules into several pieces; this should
1416		have no functional change in this release, but makes it
1417		possible to have better anti-spam rulesets in the future.
1418	CONFIG: Disallow double dots in host names to avoid having the
1419		HostStatusDirectory store status under the wrong name.
1420		In some cases this can be used as a denial-of-service attack.
1421		Problem noted by Ron Jarrell of Virginia Tech, patch from
1422		Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1423	CONFIG: Don't use F=m (multiple recipients per invocation) for
1424		MAILER(procmail), but do pass F=Pn9 (include Return-Path:,
1425		don't include From_, and convert to 8-bit).  Suggestions
1426		from Kimmo Suominen and Roderick Schertler.
1427	CONFIG: Domains under $=M (specified with MASQUERADE_DOMAIN) where
1428		being masqueraded as though FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)
1429		was specified, even when it wasn't.
1430	MAIL.LOCAL: Solaris 2.6 has snprintf.  From John Beck of SunSoft.
1431	MAIL.LOCAL: SECURITY: check to make sure that an attacker doesn't
1432		"slip in" a symbolic link between the lstat(2) call and the
1433		exclusive open.  This is only a problem on System V derived
1434		systems that allow an exclusive create on files that are
1435		symbolic links pointing nowhere.
1436	MAIL.LOCAL: If the final mailbox close() failed, the user id was
1437		not reset back to root, which on some systems would cause
1438		later mailboxes to fail.  Also, any partial message would
1439		not be truncated, which could result in repeated deliveries.
1440		Problem noted by Bruce Evans via Peter Wemm (FreeBSD
1441		developers).
1442	MAKEMAP: Handle cases where O_EXLOCK is #defined to be 0.  A similar
1443		change to the sendmail map code was made in 8.8.3.  Problem
1444		noted by Gregory Neil Shapiro.
1445	MAKEMAP: Give warnings on file problems such as map files that are
1446		symbolic links; although makemap is not setuid root, it is
1447		often run as root and hence has the potential for the same
1448		sorts of problems as alias rebuilds.
1449	MAKEMAP: Change compilation so that it will link properly on
1450		NEXTSTEP.
1451	CONTRIB: etrn.pl: search for Cw as well as Fw lines in sendmail.cf.
1452		Accept an optional list of arguments following the server
1453		name for the ETRN arguments to use (instead of $=w).  Other
1454		miscellaneous bug fixes.  From Christian von Roques via
1455		John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
1456	CONTRIB: Add passwd-to-alias.pl, contributed by Kari Hurtta.  This
1457		Perl script converts GECOS information in the /etc/passwd
1458		file into aliases, allowing for faster access to full name
1459		lookups; it is also clever about adding aliases (to root)
1460		for system accounts.
1461	NEW FILES:
1462		src/safefile.c
1463		cf/ostype/gnuhurd.m4
1464		cf/ostype/irix6.m4
1465		contrib/passwd-to-alias.pl
1466		src/Makefiles/Makefile.IRIX64.6.1
1467		src/Makefiles/Makefile.IRIX64.6.x
1468	RENAMED FILES:
1469		src/Makefiles/Makefile.IRIX.6.2 =>	Makefile.IRIX.6.x
1470		src/Makefiles/Makefile.IRIX64 =>	Makefile.IRIX64.6.0
1471
14728.8.5/8.8.5	97/01/21
1473	SECURITY: Clear out group list during startup.  Without this, sendmail
1474		will continue to run with the group permissions of the caller,
1475		even if RunAsUser is specified.
1476	SECURITY: Make purgestat (-bH) be root-only.  This is not in response
1477		to any known attack, but it's best to be conservative.
1478		Suggested by Peter Wemm of DIALix.
1479	SECURITY: Fix buffer overrun problem in MIME code that has possible
1480		security implications.  Patch from Alex Garthwaite of the
1481		University of Pennsylvania.
1482	Use of a -f flag with a phrase attached (e.g., "-f 'Full Name <addr>'")
1483		would truncate the address after "Full".  Although the -f
1484		syntax is incorrect (since it is in the envelope, it
1485		shouldn't have comments and full names), the failure mode
1486		was unnecessarily awful.
1487	Fix a possible null pointer dereference when converting 8-bit data
1488		to a 7-bit format.  Problem noted by Jim Hutchins of
1489		Sandia National Labs and David James of British Telecom.
1490	Clear out stale state that affected F=9 on SMTP mailers in queue
1491		runs.  Although this really shouldn't be used (F=9 is for
1492		final delivery only, and using it on an SMTP mailer makes
1493		it possible for a message to be converted from 8->7->8->7
1494		bits several times), it shouldn't have failed with a syserr.
1495		Problem noted by Eric Hagberg of Morgan Stanley.
1496	_Really_ fix the multiple :maildrop code in the user database
1497		module.  Patch from Roy Mongiovi of Georgia Tech.
1498	Let F lines in the configuration file actually read root-only
1499		files if the configuration file is safe.  Based on a
1500		patch from Keith Reynolds of SCO.
1501	ETRN followed by QUIT would hold the connection open until the queue
1502		run completed.  Problem noted by Truck Lewis of TDK
1503		Semiconductor Corp.
1504	It turns out that despite the documentation, the TCP wrappers library
1505		does _not_ log rejected connections.  Do the logging ourselves.
1506		Problem noted by Fletcher Mattox of the University of Texas
1507		at Austin.
1508	If sendmail finds a qf file in its queue directory that is an unknown
1509		version (e.g., when backing out to an old version), the
1510		error is reported on every queue run.  Change it to only
1511		give the error once (and rename the qf => Qf).  Patch from
1512		William A. Gianopoulos of Raytheon Company.
1513	Start a new session when doing background delivery; currently it
1514		ignored signals but didn't start a new signal, that caused
1515		some problems if a background process tried to send mail
1516		under certain circumstances.  Problem noted by Eric Hagberg
1517		of Morgan Stanley; fix from Kari Hurtta.
1518	Simplify test for skipping a queue run to just check if the current
1519		load average is >= the queueing load average.  Previously
1520		the check factored in some other parameters that caused it
1521		to essentially never skip the queue run.  Patch from Bryan
1522		Costales.
1523	If the SMTP server is running in "nullserver" mode (that is, it is
1524		rejecting all commands), start sleeping after MAXBADCOMMAND
1525		(25) commands; this helps prevent a bad guy from putting
1526		you into a tight loop as a denial-of-service attack.  Based
1527		on an e-mail conversation with Brad Knowles of AOL.
1528	Slow down when too many "light weight" commands have been issued;
1529		this helps prevent a class of denial-of-service attacks.
1530		The current values and defaults are:
1531		    MAXNOOPCOMMANDS	20	NOOP, VERB, ONEX, XUSR
1532		    MAXHELOCOMMANDS	3	HELO, EHLO
1533		    MAXVRFYCOMMANDS	6	VRFY, EXPN
1534		    MAXETRNCOMMANDS	8	ETRN
1535		These will probably be configurable in a future release.
1536	On systems that have uid_t typedefed to be an unsigned short, programs
1537		that had the F=S flag and no U= equate would be invoked with
1538		the real uid set to 65535 rather than being left unchanged.
1539	In some cases, NOTIFY=NEVER was not being honored.  Problem noted
1540		by Steve Hubert of the University of Washington, Seattle.
1541	Mail that was Quoted-Printable encoded and had a soft line break on
1542		the last line (i.e., an incomplete continuation) had the last
1543		line dropped.  Since this appears to be illegal it isn't
1544		clear what to do with it, but flushing the last line seems
1545		to be a better "fail soft" approach.  Based on a patch from
1546		Eric Hagberg.
1547	If AllowBogusHELO and PrivacyOptions=needmailhelo are both set, a
1548		bogus HELO command still causes the "Polite people say HELO
1549		first" error message.  Problem pointed out by Chris Thomas
1550		of UCLA; patch from John Beck of SunSoft.
1551	Handle "sendmail -bp -qSfoobar" properly if restrictqrun is set
1552		 in PrivacyOptions.  The -q shouldn't turn this command off.
1553		 Problem noted by Murray Kucherawy of Pacific Bell Internet;
1554		 based on a patch from Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1555	Don't consider SMTP reply codes 452 or 552 (exceeded storage allocation)
1556		in a DATA transaction to be sticky; these can occur because
1557		a message is too large, and smaller messages should still go
1558		through.  Problem noted by Matt Dillon of Best Internet
1559		Communications.
1560	In some cases bounces were saved in /var/tmp/dead.letter even if they
1561		had been successfully delivered to the envelope sender.
1562		Problem noted Eric Hagberg of Morgan Stanley; solution from
1563		Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1564	Give better diagnostics on long alias lines.  Based on code contributed
1565		by Patrick Gosling of the University of Cambridge.
1566	Increase the number of virtual interfaces that will be probed for
1567		alternate names.  Problem noted by Amy Rich of Shore.Net.
1568	PORTABILITY:
1569		UXP/DS V20L10 for Fujitsu DS/90: Makefile patches from
1570			Toshiaki Nomura of Fujitsu Limited.
1571		SunOS with LDAP support: compile problems with struct timeval.
1572			Patch from Nick Cuccia of TCSI Corporation.
1573		SCO: from Keith Reynolds of SCO.
1574		Solaris: kstat load average computation wasn't being used.
1575			Fixes from Michael Ju. Tokarev of Telecom Service, JSC
1576			(Moscow).
1577		OpenBSD: from Jason Downs of teeny.org.
1578		Altos System V: from Tim Rice.
1579		Solaris 2.5: from Alan Perry of SunSoft.
1580		Solaris 2.6: from John Beck of SunSoft.
1581		Harris Nighthawk PowerUX (mh6000 box): from Bob Miorelli
1582			of Pratt & Whitney <miorelli@pweh.com>.
1583	CONFIG: It seems that I hadn't gotten the Received: line syntax
1584		_just_right_ yet.  Tweak it again.  I'll omit the names
1585		of the "contributors" (quantity two) in this one case.
1586		As of now, NO MORE DISCUSSION about the syntax of the
1587		Received: line.
1588	CONFIG: Although FEATURE(nullclient) uses EXPOSED_USER (class $=E),
1589		it never inserts that class into the output file.  Fix it
1590		so it will honor EXPOSED_USER but will _not_ include root
1591		automatically in this class.  Problem noted by Ronan KERYELL
1592		of Centre de Recherche en Informatique de l'�cole Nationale
1593		Sup�rieure des Mines de Paris (CRI-ENSMP).
1594	CONFIG: Clean up handling of "local:" syntax in relay specifications
1595		such as LUSER_RELAY.  This change permits the following
1596		syntaxes:  ``local:'' will send to the same user on the
1597		local machine (e.g., in a mailertable entry for "host",
1598		``local:'' will cause an address addressed to user@host to
1599		go to user on the local machone).  ``local:user'' will send
1600		to the named user on the local machine.  ``local:user@host''
1601		is equivalent to ``local:user'' (the host is ignored).  In
1602		all cases, the original user@host is passed in $@ (i.e., the
1603		detail information).  Inspired by a report from Michael Fuhr.
1604	CONFIG: Strip quotes from the first word of an "error:" host
1605		indication.  This lets you set (for example) the LUSER_RELAY
1606		to be ``error:\"5.1.1\" Your Message Here''.  Note the use
1607		of the \" so that the resulting string is properly quoted.
1608		Problem noted by Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
1609	OP.ME: documentation was inconsistent about whether sendmail did a
1610		NOOP or a RSET to probe the connection (it does a RSET).
1611		Inconsistency noted by Deeran Peethamparam.
1612	OP.ME: insert additional blank pages so it will print properly on
1613		a duplex printer.  From Matthew Black of Cal State University,
1614		Long Beach.
1615
16168.8.4/8.8.4	96/12/02
1617	SECURITY: under some circumstances, an attacker could get additional
1618		permissions by hard linking to files that were group
1619		writable by the attacker.  The solution is to disallow any
1620		files that have hard links -- this will affect .forward,
1621		:include:, and output files.  Problem noted by Terry
1622		Kyriacopoulos of Interlog Internet Services.  As a
1623		workaround, set UnsafeGroupWrites -- always a good idea.
1624	SECURITY: the TryNullMXList (w) option should not be safe -- if it
1625		is, it is possible to do a denial-of-service attack on
1626		MX hosts that rely on the use of the null MX list.  There
1627		is no danger if you have this option turned off (the default).
1628		Problem noted by Dan Bernstein.  Also, make the DontInitGroups
1629		unsafe.  I know of no specific attack against this, although
1630		a denial-of-service attack is probably possible, but in theory
1631		you should not be able to safely tweak anything that affects
1632		the permissions that are used when mail is delivered.
1633	Purgestat could go into an infinite loop if one of the host status
1634		directories somehow became empty.  Problem noted by Roy
1635		Mongiovi of Georgia Tech.
1636	Processes got "lost" when counting children due to a race condition.
1637		This caused "proc_list_probe: lost pid" messages to be logged.
1638		Problem noted by several people.
1639	On systems with System V SIGCLD child signal semantics (notably AIX
1640		and HP-UX), mail transactions would print the message "451
1641		SMTP-MAIL: lost child: No child processes".  Problem noted
1642		by several people.
1643	Miscellaneous compiler warnings on picky compilers (or when setting
1644		gcc to high warning levels).  From Tom Moore of NCR Corp.
1645	SMTP protocol errors, and most errors on MAIL FROM: lines should
1646		not be persistent between runs, since they are based on the
1647		message rather than the host.  Problem noted by Matt Dillon
1648		of Best Internet Communications.
1649	The F=7 flag was ignored on SMTP mailers.  Problem noted by Tom Moore
1650		of NCR (a.k.a., AT&T Global Information Solutions).
1651	Avoid the possibility of having a child daemon run to completion
1652		(including closing the SMTP socket) before the parent has
1653		had a chance to close the socket; this can cause the parent
1654		to hang for a long time waiting for the socket to drain.
1655		Patch from Don Lewis of TDK Semiconductor.
1656	If the fork() failed in a queue run, the queue runners would not be
1657		rescheduled (so queue runs would stop).  Patch from Don Lewis.
1658	Some error conditions in ETRN could cause output without an SMTP
1659		status code.  Problem noted by Don Lewis.
1660	Multiple :maildrop addresses in the user database didn't work properly.
1661		Patch from Roy Mongiovi of Georgia Tech.
1662	Add ".db" automatically onto any user database spec that does not
1663		already have it; this is for consistency with makemap, the
1664		K line, and the documentation.  Inconsistency pointed out
1665		by Roy Mongiovi.
1666	Allow sendmail to be properly called in nohup mode.  Patch from
1667		Kyle Jones of UUNET.
1668	Change ETRN to ignore but still update host status files; previously
1669		it would ignore them and not save the updated status, which
1670		caused stale information to be maintained.  Based on a patch
1671		from Christopher Davis of Kapor Enterprises Inc.  Also, have
1672		ETRN ignore the MinQueueAge option.
1673	Patch long term host status to recover more gracefully from an empty
1674		host status file condition.  Patch from NAKAMURA Motonori
1675		of Kyoto University.
1676	Several patches to signal handling code to fix potential race
1677		conditions from Don Lewis.
1678	Make it possible to compile with -DDAEMON=0 (previously it had some
1679		compile errors).  This turns DAEMON, QUEUE, and SMTP into
1680		0/1 compilation flags.  Note that DAEMON is an obsolete
1681		compile flag; use NETINET instead.  Solution based on a
1682		patch from Bryan Costales.
1683	PORTABILITY FIXES:
1684		AIX4: getpwnam() and getpwuid() do a sequential scan of the
1685			/etc/security/passwd file when called as root.  This
1686			is very slow on some systems.  To speed it up, use the
1687			(undocumented) _getpw{nam,uid}_shadow() routines.
1688			Patch from Chris Thomas of UCLA/OAC Systems Group.
1689		SCO 5.x: include -lprot in the Makefile.  Patch from Bill
1690			Glicker of Burrelle's Information Service.
1691		NEWS-OS 4.x: need a definition for MODE_T to compile.  Patch
1692			from Makoto MATSUSHITA of Osaka University.
1693		SunOS 4.0.3: compile problems.  Patches from Andrew Cole of
1694			Leeds University and SASABE Tetsuro of the University
1695			of Tokyo.
1696		DG/UX 5.4.4.11 from Brian J. Murrell of InterLinx Support
1697			Services, Inc.
1698		Domain/OS from Don (Truck) Lewis of TDK Semiconductor Corp.
1699			I believe this to have only been a problem if you
1700			compiled with -DUSE_VENDOR_CF_PATH -- another reason
1701			to stick with /etc/sendmail.cf as your One True Path.
1702		Digital UNIX (OSF/1 on Alpha) load average computation from
1703			Martin Laubach of the Technischen Universit�t Wien.
1704	CONFIG: change default Received: line to be multiple lines rather
1705		than one long one.  By popular demand.
1706	MAIL.LOCAL: warnings weren't being logged on some systems.  Patch
1707		from Jerome Berkman of U.C. Berkeley.
1708	MAKEMAP: be sure to zero hinfo to avoid cruft that can cause runs
1709		to take a very long time.  Problem noted by Yoshiro YONEYA

1717		about argv[0] and then sending it a signal.  Problem noted
1718		by Leshka Zakharoff <leshka@leshka.chuvashia.su> on the
1719		best-of-security list.
1720	Log sendmail binary version number in "Warning: .cf version level
1721		(%d) exceeds program functionality (%d) message" -- this
1722		should make it clearer to people that they are running
1723		the wrong binary.
1724	Fix a problem that occurs when you open an SMTP connection and then
1725		do one or more ETRN commands followed by a MAIL command; at
1726		the end of the DATA phase sendmail would incorrectly report
1727		"451 SMTP-MAIL: lost child: No child processes".  Problem
1728		noted by Eric Bishop of Virginia Tech.
1729	When doing text-based host canonification (typically /etc/hosts
1730		lookup), a null host name would match any /etc/hosts entry
1731		with space at the end of the line.  Problem noted by Steve
1732		Hubert of the University of Washington, Seattle.
1733	7 to 8 bit BASE64 MIME conversions could duplicate bits of text.
1734		Problem reported by Tom Smith of Digital Equipment Corp.
1735	Increase the size of the DNS answer buffer -- the standard UDP packet
1736		size PACKETSZ (512) is not sufficient for some nameserver
1737		answers containing very many resource records.  The resolver
1738		may also switch to TCP and retry if it detects UDP packet
1739		overflow.  Also, allow for the fact that the resolver
1740		routines res_query and res_search return the size of the
1741		*un*truncated answer in case the supplied answer buffer it
1742		not big enough to accommodate the entire answer.  Patch from
1743		Eric Wassenaar.
1744	Improvements to MaxDaemonChildren code.  If you think you have too
1745		many children, probe the ones you have to verify that they
1746		are still around.  Suggested by Jared Mauch of CICnet, Inc.
1747		Also, do this probe before growing the vector of children
1748		pids; this previously caused the vector to grow indefinitely
1749		due to a race condition.  Problem reported by Kyle Jones of
1750		UUNET.
1751	On some architectures, <db.h> (from the Berkeley DB library) defines
1752		O_EXLOCK to zero; this fools the map compilation code into
1753		thinking that it can avoid race conditions by locking on open.
1754		Change it to check for O_EXLOCK non-zero.  Problem noted by
1755		Leif Erlingsson of Data Lege.
1756	Always call res_init() on startup (if compiled in, of course) to
1757		allow the sendmail.cf file to tweak resolver flags; without
1758		it, flag tweaks in ResolverOptions are ignored.  Patch from
1759		Andrew Sun of Merrill Lynch.
1760	Improvements to host status printing code.  Suggested by Steve Hubert
1761		of the University of Washington, Seattle.
1762	Change MinQueueAge option processing to do the check for the job age
1763		when reading the queue file, rather than at the end; this
1764		avoids parsing the addresses, which can do DNS lookups.
1765		Problem noted by John Beck of InReference, Inc.
1766	When MIME was being 7->8 bit decoded, "From " lines weren't being
1767		properly escaped.  Problem noted by Peter Nilsson of the
1768		University of Linkoping.
1769	In some cases, sendmail would retain root permissions during queue
1770		runs even if RunAsUser was set.  Problem noted by Mark
1771		Thomas of Mark G. Thomas Consulting.
1772	If the F=l flag was set on an SMTP mailer to indicate that it is
1773		actually local delivery, and NOTIFY=SUCCESS is specified in
1774		the envelope, and the receiving SMTP server speaks DSN, then
1775		the DSN would be both generated locally and propagated to the
1776		other end.
1777	The U= mailer field didn't correctly extract the group id if the
1778		user id was numeric.  Problem noted by Kenneth Herron of
1779		MCI Telecommunications Communications.
1780	If a message exceeded the fixed maximum size on input, the body of
1781		the message was included in the bounce.  Note that this did
1782		not occur if it exceeded the maximum _output_ size.  Problem
1783		reported by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
1784	PORTABILITY FIXES:
1785		AIX4: 4.1 doesn't have a working setreuid(2); change the
1786			AIX4 defines to use seteuid(2) instead, which
1787			works on 4.1 as well as 4.2.  Problem noted by
1788			H�kan Lindholm of interAF, Sweden.
1789		AIX4: use tzname[] vector to determine time zone name.
1790			Patch from NAKAMURA Motonori of Kyoto University.
1791		MkLinux: add Makefile.Linux.ppc and OSTYPE(mklinux) support.
1792			Contributed by Paul DuBois <dubois@primate.wisc.edu>.
1793		Solaris: kstat(3k) support for retrieving the load average.
1794			This adds the LA_KSTAT definition for LA_TYPE.
1795			The outline of the implementation was contributed
1796			by Michael Tokarev of Telecom Service, JSC, Moscow.
1797		HP-UX 10.0 gripes about the (perfectly legal!) forward
1798			declaration of struct rusage at the top of conf.h;
1799			change it to only be included if you are using gcc,
1800			which is apparently the only compiler that requires
1801			it in the first place.  Problem noted by Jeff
1802			Earickson of Colby College.
1803		IRIX: don't default to using gcc.  IRIX is a civilized
1804			operating system that comes with a decent compiler
1805			by default.  Problem noted by Barry Bouwsma and
1806			Kari Hurtta.
1807	CONFIG: specify F=9 as default in FEATURE(local_procmail) for
1808		consistency with other local mailers.  Inconsistency
1809		pointed out by Teddy Hogeborn <teddy@fukt.hk-r.se>.
1810	CONFIG: if the "limited best mx" feature is used (to reduce DNS
1811		overhead) as part of the bestmx_is_local feature, the
1812		domain part was dropped from the name.  Patch from Steve
1813		Hubert of the University of Washington, Seattle.
1814	CONFIG: catch addresses of the form "user@.dom.ain"; these could
1815		end up being translated to the null host name, which would
1816		return any entry in /etc/hosts that had a space at the end
1817		of the line.  Problem noted by Steve Hubert of the
1818		University of Washington, Seattle.
1819	CONFIG: add OSTYPE(aix4).  From Michael Sofka of Rensselaer
1820		Polytechnic Institute.
1821	MAKEMAP: tweak hash and btree parameters for better performance.
1822		Patch from Matt Dillon of Best Internet Communications.
1823	NEW FILES:
1824		src/Makefiles/Makefile.Linux.ppc
1825		cf/ostype/aix4.m4
1826		cf/ostype/mklinux.m4
1827
18288.8.2/8.8.2	96/10/18
1829	SECURITY: fix a botch in the 7-bit MIME patch; the previous patch
1830		changed the code but didn't fix the problem.
1831	PORTABILITY FIXES:
1832		Solaris: Don't use the system getusershell(3); it can
1833			apparently corrupt the heap in some circumstances.
1834			Problem found by Ken Pizzini of Spry, Inc.
1835	OP.ME: document several mailer flags that were accidentally omitted
1836		from this document.  These flags were F=d, F=j, F=R, and F=9.
1837	CONFIG: no changes.
1838
18398.8.1/8.8.1	96/10/17
1840	SECURITY: unset all environment variables that the resolver will
1841		examine during queue runs and daemon mode.  Problem noted
1842		by Dan Bernstein of the University of Illinois at Chicago.
1843	SECURITY: in some cases an illegal 7-bit MIME-encoded text/plain
1844		message could overflow a buffer if it was converted back
1845		to 8 bits.  This caused core dumps and has the potential
1846		for a remote attack.  Problem first noted by Gregory Shapiro
1847		of WPI.
1848	Avoid duplicate deliveries of error messages on systems that don't
1849		have flock(2) support.  Patch from Motonori Nakamura of
1850		Kyoto University.
1851	Ignore null FallBackMX (V) options.  If this option is null (as
1852		opposed to undefined) it can cause "null signature" syserrs
1853		on illegal host names.
1854	If a Base64 encoded text/plain message has no trailing newline in
1855		the encoded text, conversion back to 8 bits will drop the
1856		final line.  Problem noted by Pierre David.
1857	If running with a RunAsUser, sendmail would give bogus "cannot
1858		setuid" (or seteuid, or setreuid) messages on some systems.
1859		Problem pointed out by Jordan Mendelson of Web Services, Inc.
1860	Always print error messages in -bv mode -- previously, -bv would
1861		be absolutely silent on errors if the error mode was sent
1862		to (say) mail-back.  Problem noted by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
1863	If -qI/R/S is set (or the ETRN command is used), ignore all long
1864		term host status.  This is necessary because it is common
1865		to do this when you know a host has just come back up.
1866	Disallow duplicate HELO/EHLO commands as required by RFC 1651 section
1867		4.2.  Excessive permissiveness noted by Lee Flight of the
1868		University of Leicester.
1869	If a service (such as NIS) is specified as the last entry in the
1870		service switch, but that service is not compiled in, sendmail
1871		would return a temporary failure when an entry was not found
1872		in the map.  This caused the message to be queued instead of
1873		bouncing immediately.  Problem noted by Harry Edmon of the
1874		University of Washington.
1875	PORTABILITY FIXES:
1876		Solaris 2.3 had compilation problems in conf.c.  Several
1877			people pointed this out.
1878		NetBSD from Charles Hannum of MIT.
1879		AIX4 improvements based on info from Steve Bauer of South
1880			Dakota School of Mines & Technology.
1881	CONFIG: ``error:code message'' syntax was broken in virtusertable.
1882		Patch from Gil Kloepfer Jr.
1883	CONFIG: if FEATURE(nocanonify) was specified, hosts in $=M (set
1884		using MASQUERADE_DOMAIN) were not masqueraded unless they
1885		were also in $=w.  Problem noted by Zoltan Basti of
1886		Softec.
1887	MAIL.LOCAL: patches to compile and link cleanly on AIX.  Based
1888		on a patch from Eric Hagberg of Morgan Stanley.
1889	MAIL.LOCAL: patches to compile on NEXTSTEP.  From Patrick Nolan
1890		of Stanford via Robert La Ferla.
1891
18928.8.0/8.8.0	96/09/26
1893	Under some circumstances, Bcc: headers would not be properly
1894		deleted.  Pointed out by Jonathan Kamens of OpenVision.
1895	Log a warning if the sendmail daemon is invoked without a full
1896		pathname, which prevents "kill -1" from working.  I was
1897		urged to put this in by Andrey A. Chernov of DEMOS (Russia).
1898	Fix small buffer overflow.  Since the data in this buffer was not
1899		read externally, there was no security problem (and in fact
1900		probably wouldn't really overflow on most compilers).  Pointed
1901		out by KIZU takashi of Osaka University.
1902	Fix problem causing domain literals such as [1.2.3.4] to be ignored
1903		if a FallbackMXHost was specified in the configuration file
1904		-- all mail would be sent to the fallback even if the original
1905		host was accessible.  Pointed out by Munenari Hirayama of
1906		NSC (Japan).
1907	A message that didn't terminate with a newline would (sometimes) not
1908		have the trailing "." added properly in the SMTP dialogue,
1909		causing SMTP to hang.  Patch from Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
1910	The DaemonPortOptions suboption to bind to a particular address was
1911		incorrect and nonfunctional due to a misunderstanding of the
1912		semantics of binding on a passive socket.  Patch from
1913		NIIBE Yutaka of Mitsubishi Research Institute.
1914	Increase the number of MX hosts for a single name to 100 to better
1915		handle the truly huge service providers such as AOL, which
1916		has 13 at the moment (and climbing).  In order to avoid
1917		trashing memory, the buffer for all names has only been
1918		slightly increased in size, to 12.8K from 10.2K -- this means
1919		that if a single name had 100 MX records, the average size
1920		of those records could not exceed 128 bytes.  Requested by
1921		Brad Knowles of America On Line.
1922	Restore use of IDENT returns where the OSTYPE field equals "OTHER".
1923		Urged by Dan Bernstein of U.C. Berkeley.
1924	Print q_statdate and q_specificity in address structure debugging
1925		printout.
1926	Expand MCI structure flag bits for debugging output.
1927	Support IPv6-style domain literals, which can have colons between
1928		square braces.
1929	Log open file descriptors for the "cannot dup" messages in deliver();
1930		this is an attempt to track down a bug that one person seems
1931		to be having (it may be a Solaris bug!).
1932	DSN NOTIFY parameters were not properly propagated across queue runs;
1933		this caused the NOTIFY info to sometimes be lost.  Problem
1934		pointed out by Claus Assmann of the
1935		Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel.
1936	The statistics gathered in the sendmail.st file were too high; in
1937		some cases failures (e.g., user unknown or temporary failure)
1938		would count as a delivery as far as the statistics were
1939		concerned.  Problem noted by Tom Moore of AT&T GIS.
1940	Systems that don't have flock() would not send split envelopes in
1941		the initial run.  Problem pointed out by Leonard Zubkoff of
1942		Dandelion Digital.
1943	Move buffer overflow checking -- these primarily involve distrusting
1944		results that may come from NIS and DNS.
1945	4.4-BSD-derived systems, including FreeBSD, NetBSD, and BSD/OS didn't
1946		include <paths.h> and hence had the wrong pathnames for a few
1947		things like /var/tmp.  Reported by Matthew Green.
1948	Conditions were reversed for the Priority: header, resulting in all
1949		values being interpreted as non-urgent except for non-urgent,
1950		which was interpreted as normal.  Patch from Bryan Costales.
1951	The -o (optional) flag was being ignored on hash and btree maps
1952		since 8.7.2.  Fix from Bryan Costales.
1953	Content-Types listed in class "q" will always be encoded as
1954		Quoted-Printable (or more accurately, will never be encoded
1955		as base64).  The class can have primary types (e.g., "text")
1956		or full types (e.g., "text/plain").  Based on a suggestion by
1957		Marius Olafsson of the University of Iceland.
1958	Define ${envid} to be the original envelope id (from the ESMTP DSN
1959		dialogue) so it can be passed to programs in mailers.
1960	Define ${bodytype} to be the body type (from the -B flag or the
1961		BODY= ESMTP parameter) so it can be passed to programs in
1962		mailers.
1963	Cause the VRFY command to return 252 instead of 250 unless the F=q
1964		flag is set in the mailer descriptor.  Suggested by John
1965		Myers of CMU.
1966	Implement ESMTP ETRN command to flush the queue for a specific host.
1967		The command takes a host name; data for that host is
1968		immediately (and asynchronously) flushed.  Because this shares
1969		the -qR implementation, other hosts may be attempted, but
1970		there should be no security implications.  Implementation
1971		from John Beck of InReference, Inc.  See RFC 1985 for details.
1972	Add three new command line flags to pass in DSN parameters: -V envid
1973		(equivalent to ENVID=envid on the MAIL command), -R ret
1974		(equivalent to RET=ret on the MAIL command), and -Nnotify
1975		(equivalent to NOTIFY=notify on the RCPT command).  Note
1976		that the -N flag applies to all recipients; there is no way
1977		to specify per-address notifications on the command line,
1978		nor is there an equivalent for the ORCPT= per-address
1979		parameter.
1980	Restore LogLevel option to be safe (it can only be increased);
1981		apparently I went into paranoid mode between 8.6 and 8.7
1982		and made it unsafe.  Pointed out by Dabe Murphy of the
1983		University of Maryland.
1984	New logging on log level 15:  all SMTP traffic.  Patches from
1985		Andrew Gross of San Diego Supercomputer Center.
1986	NetInfo property value searching code wasn't stopping when it found
1987		a match.  This was causing the wrong values to be found (and
1988		had a memory leak).  Found by Bastian Schleuter of TU-Berlin.
1989	Add new F=0 (zero) mailer flag to turn off MX lookups.  It was pointed
1990		out by Bill Wisner of Electronics for Imaging that you can't
1991		use the bracket address form for the MAIL_HUB macro, since
1992		that causes the brackets to remain in the envelope recipient
1993		address used for delivery.  The simple fix (stripping off the
1994		brackets in the config file) breaks the use of IP literal
1995		addresses.  This flag will solve that problem.
1996	Add MustQuoteChars option.  This is a list of characters that must
1997		be quoted if they are found in the phrase part of an address
1998		(that is, the full name part).  The characters @,;:\()[] are
1999		always in this list and cannot be removed.  The default is
2000		this list plus . and ' to match RFC 822.
2001	Add AllowBogusHELO option; if set, sendmail will allow HELO commands
2002		that do not include a host name for back compatibility with
2003		some stupid SMTP clients.  Setting this violates RFC 1123
2004		section 5.2.5.
2005	Add MaxDaemonChildren option; if this is set, sendmail will start
2006		rejecting connections if it has more than this many
2007		outstanding children accepting mail.  Note that you may
2008		see more processes than this because of outgoing mail; this
2009		is for incoming connections only.
2010	Add ConnectionRateThrottle option.  If set to a positive value, the
2011		number of incoming SMTP connections that will be permitted
2012		in a single second is limited to this number.  Connections are
2013		not refused during this time, just deferred.  The intent is to
2014		flatten out demand so that load average limiting can kick in.
2015		It is less radical than MaxDaemonChildren, which will stop
2016		accepting connections even if all the connections are idle
2017		(e.g., due to connection caching).
2018	Add Timeout.hoststatus option.  This interval (defaulting to 30m)
2019		specifies how long cached information about the state of a
2020		host will be kept before they are considered stale and the
2021		host is retried.  If you are using persistent host status
2022		(i.e., the HostStatusDirectory option is set) this will apply
2023		between runs; otherwise, it applies only within a single queue
2024		run and hence is useful only for hosts that have large queues
2025		that take a very long time to run.
2026	Add SingleLineFromHeader option.  If set, From: headers are coerced
2027		into being a single line even if they had newlines in them
2028		when read.  This is to get around a botch in Lotus Notes.
2029	Text class maps were totally broken -- if you ever retrieved the last
2030		item in a table it would be truncated.  Problem noted by
2031		Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
2032	Extend the lines printed by the mailq command (== the -bp flag) when
2033		-v is given to 120 characters; this allows more information
2034		to be displayed.  Suggested by Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
2035	Allow macro definitions (`D' lines) with unquoted commas; previously
2036		this was treated as end-of-input.  Problem noted by Bryan
2037		Costales.
2038	The RET= envelope parameter (used for DSNs) wasn't properly written
2039		to the queue file.  Fix from John Hughes of Atlantic
2040		Technologies, Inc.
2041	Close /var/tmp/dead.letter after a successful write -- otherwise
2042		if this happens in a queue run it can cause nasty delays.
2043		Problem noted by Mark Horton of AT&T.
2044	If userdb entries pointed to userdb entries, and there were multiple
2045		values for a given key, the database cursor would get
2046		trashed by the recursive call.  Problem noted by Roy Mongiovi
2047		of Georgia Tech.  Fixed by reading all the values and creating
2048		a comma-separated list; thus, the -v output will be somewhat
2049		different for this case.
2050	Fix buffer allocation problem with Hesiod-based userdb maps when
2051		HES_GETMAILHOST is defined.  Based on a patch by Betty Lee
2052		of Stanford University.
2053	When envelopes were split due to aliases with owner- aliases, and
2054		there was some error on one of the lists, more than one of
2055		the owners would get the message.  Problem pointed out by
2056		Roy Mongiovi of Georgia Tech.
2057	Detect excessive recursion in macro expansions, e.g., $X defined
2058		in terms of $Y which is defined in terms of $X.  Problem
2059		noted by Bryan Costales; patch from Eric Wassenaar.
2060	When using F=U to get "ugly UUCP" From_ lines, a buffer could in
2061		some cases get trashed causing bogus From_ lines.  Fix from
2062		Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2063	When doing load average initialization, if the nlist call for avenrun
2064		failed, the second and subsequent lookups wouldn't notice
2065		that fact causing bogus load averages to be returned.  Noted
2066		by Casper Dik of Sun Holland.
2067	Fix problem with incompatibility with some versions of inet_aton that
2068		have changed the return value to unsigned, so a check for an
2069		error return of -1 doesn't work.  Use INADDR_NONE instead.
2070		This could cause mail to addresses such as [foo.com] to bounce
2071		or get dropped.  Problem noted by Christophe Wolfhugel of the
2072		Pasteur Institute.
2073	DSNs were inconsistent if a failure occurred during the DATA phase
2074		rather than the RCPT phase: the Action: would be correct, but
2075		the detailed status information would be wrong.  Problem noted
2076		by Bob Snyder of General Electric Company.
2077	Add -U command line flag and the XUSR ESMTP extension, both indicating
2078		that this is the initial MUA->MTA submission.  The flag current
2079		does nothing, but in future releases (when MUAs start using
2080		these flags) it will probably turn on things like DNS
2081		canonification.
2082	Default end-of-line string (E= specification on mailer [M] lines)
2083		to \r\n on SMTP mailers.  Default remains \n on non-SMTP
2084		mailers.
2085	Change the internal definition for the *file* and *include* mailers
2086		to have $u in the argument vectors so that they aren't
2087		misinterpreted as SMTP mailers and thus use \r\n line
2088		termination.  This will affect anyone who has redefined
2089		either of these in their configuration file.
2090	Don't assume that IDENT servers close the connection after a query;
2091		responses can be newline terminated.  From Terry Kennedy of
2092		St. Peter's College.
2093	Avoid core dumps on erroneous configuration files that have
2094		$#mailer with nothing following.  From Bryan Costales.
2095	Avoid null pointer dereference with high debug values in unlockqueue.
2096		Fix from Randy Martin of Clemson University.
2097	Fix possible buffer overrun when expanding very large macros.  Fix
2098		from Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2099	After 25 EXPN or VRFY commands, start pausing for a second before
2100		processing each one.  This avoids a certain form of denial
2101		of service attack.  Potential attack pointed out by Bryan
2102		Costales.
2103	Allow new named (not numbered!) config file rules to do validity
2104		checking on SMTP arguments: check_mail for MAIL commands and
2105		check_rcpt for RCPT commands.  These rulesets can do anything
2106		they want; their result is ignored unless they resolve to the
2107		$#error mailer, in which case the indicated message is printed
2108		and the command is rejected.  Similarly, the check_compat
2109		ruleset is called before delivery with "from_addr $| to_addr"
2110		(the $| is a meta-symbol used to separate the two addresses);
2111		it can give a "this sender can't send to this recipient"
2112		notification.  Note that this patch allows $| to stand alone
2113		in rulesets.
2114	Define new macros ${client_name}, ${client_addr}, and ${client_port}
2115		that have the name, IP address, and port number (respectively)
2116		of the SMTP client (that is, the entity at the other end of
2117		the connection.  These can be used in (e.g.) check_rcpt to
2118		verify that someone isn't trying to relay mail through your
2119		host inappropriately.  Be sure to use the deferred evaluation
2120		form, for example $&{client_name}, to avoid having these bound
2121		when sendmail reads the configuration file.
2122	Add new config file rule check_relay to check the incoming connection
2123		information.  Like check_compat, it is passed the host name
2124		and host address separated by $| and can reject connections
2125		on that basis.
2126	Allow IDA-style recursive function calls.  Code contributed by Mark
2127		Lovell and Paul Vixie.
2128	Eliminate the "No ! in UUCP From address!" message" -- instead, create
2129		a virtual UUCP address using either a domain address or the $k
2130		macro.  Based on code contributed by Mark Lovell and Paul
2131		Vixie.
2132	Add Stanford LDAP map.  Requires special libraries that are not
2133		included with sendmail.  Contributed by Booker C. Bense
2134		<bbense@networking.stanford.edu>; contact him for support.
2135		See also the src/READ_ME file.
2136	Allow -dANSI to turn on ANSI escape sequences in debug output; this
2137		puts metasymbols (e.g., $+) in reverse video.  Really useful
2138		only for debugging deep bits of code where it is important to
2139		distinguish between the single-character metasymbol $+ and the
2140		two characters $, +.
2141	Changed ruleset 89 (executed in dumpstate()) to a named ruleset,
2142		debug_dumpstate.
2143	Add new UnsafeGroupWrites option; if set, .forward and :include:
2144		files that are group writable are considered "unsafe" -- that
2145		is, programs and files referenced from such files are not
2146		valid recipients.
2147	Delete bogosity test for FallBackMX host; this prevented it to be a
2148		name that was not in DNS or was a domain-literal.  Problem
2149		noted by Tom May.
2150	Change the introduction to error messages to more clearly delineate
2151		permanent from temporary failures; if both existed in a
2152		single message it could be confusing.  Suggested by John
2153		Beck of InReference, Inc.
2154	The IngoreDot (i) option didn't work for lines that were terminated
2155		with CRLF.  Problem noted by Ted Stockwell of Secure
2156		Computing Corporation.
2157	Add a heuristic to improve the handling of unbalanced `<' signs in
2158		message headers.  Problem reported by Matt Dillon of Best
2159		Internet Communications.
2160	Check for bogus characters in the 0200-0237 range; since these are
2161		used internally, very strange errors can occur if those
2162		characters appear in headers.  Problem noted by Anders Gertz
2163		of Lysator.
2164	Implement 7 -> 8 bit MIME conversions.  This only takes place if the
2165		recipient mailer has the F=9 flag set, and only works on
2166		text/plain body types.  Code contributed by Marius Olafsson
2167		of the University of Iceland.
2168	Special case "postmaster" name so that it is always treated as lower
2169		case in alias files regardless of configuration settings;
2170		this prevents some potential problems where "Postmaster" or
2171		"POSTMASTER" might not match "postmaster".  In most cases
2172		this change is a no-op.
2173	The -o map flag was ignored for text maps.  Problem noted by Bryan
2174		Costales.
2175	The -a map flag was ignored for dequote maps.  Problem noted by
2176		Bryan Costales.
2177	Fix core dump when a lookup of a class "prog" map returns no
2178		response.  Patch from Bryan Costales.
2179	Log instances where sendmail is deferring or rejecting connections
2180		on LogLevel 14.  Suggested by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2181	Include port number in process title for network daemons.  Suggested
2182		by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2183	Send ``double bounces'' (errors that occur when sending an error
2184		message) to the address indicated in the DoubleBounceAddress
2185		option (default: postmaster).  Previously they were always
2186		sent to postmaster.  Suggested by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2187	Add new mode, -bD, that acts like -bd in all respects except that
2188		it runs in foreground.  This is useful for using with a
2189		wrapper that "watches" system services.  Suggested by Kyle
2190		Jones of UUNET.
2191	Fix botch in spacing around (parenthesized) comments in addresses
2192		when the comment comes before the address.  Patch from
2193		Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
2194	Use the prefix "Postmaster notify" on the Subject: lines of messages
2195		that are being bounced to postmaster, rather than "Returned
2196		mail".  This permits the person who is postmaster more
2197		easily determine what messages are to their role as
2198		postmaster versus bounces to mail they actually sent.  Based
2199		on a suggestion by Motonori Nakamura.
2200	Add new value "time" for QueueSortOrder option; this causes the queue
2201		to be sorted strictly by the time of submission.  Note that
2202		this can cause very bad behavior over slow lines (because
2203		large jobs will tend to delay small jobs) and on nodes with
2204		heavy traffic (because old things in the queue for hosts that
2205		are down delay processing of new jobs).  Also, this does not
2206		guarantee that jobs will be delivered in submission order
2207		unless you also set DeliveryMode=queue.  In general, it should
2208		probably only be used on the command line, and only in
2209		conjunction with -qRhost.domain.  In fact, there are very few
2210		cases where it should be used at all.  Based on an
2211		implementation by Motonori Nakamura.
2212	If a map lookup in ruleset 5 returns tempfail, queue the message in
2213		the same manner as other rulesets.  Previously a temporary
2214		failure in ruleset 5 was ignored.  Patch from Booker Bense
2215		of Stanford University.
2216	Don't proceed to the next MX host if an SMTP MAIL command returns a
2217		5yz (permanent failure) code.  The next MX host will still be
2218		tried if the connection cannot be opened in the first place
2219		or if the MAIL command returns a 4yz (temporary failure) code.
2220		(It's hard to know what to do here, since neither RFC 974 nor
2221		RFC 1123 specify when to proceed to the next MX host.)
2222		Suggested by Jonathan Kamens of OpenVision, Inc.
2223	Add new "-t" flag for map definitions (the "K" line in the .cf file).
2224		This causes map lookups that get a temporary failure (e.g.,
2225		name server failure) to _not_ defer the delivery of the
2226		message.  This should only be used if your configuration file
2227		is prepared to do something sensible in this case.  Based on
2228		an idea by Gregory Shapiro of WPI.
2229	Fix problem finding network interface addresses.  Patch from
2230		Motonori Nakamura.
2231	Don't reject qf entries that are not owned by your effective uid if
2232		you are not running setuid; this makes management of certain
2233		kinds of firewall setups difficult.  Patch suggested by
2234		Eamonn Coleman of Qualcomm.
2235	Add persistent host status.  This keeps the information normally
2236		maintained within a single queue run in disk files that are
2237		shared between sendmail instances.  The HostStatusDirectory
2238		is the directory in which the information is maintained.  If
2239		not set, persistent host status is turned off.  If not a full
2240		pathname, it is relative to the queue directory.  A common
2241		value is ".hoststat".
2242		There are also two new operation modes:
2243		  * -bh prints the status of hosts that have had recent
2244		    connections.
2245		  * -bH purges the host statuses.  No attempt is made to save
2246		    recent status information.
2247		This feature was originally written by Paul Vixie of Vixie
2248		Enterprises for KJS and adapted for V8 by Mark Lovell of
2249		Bigrock Consulting.  Paul's funding of Mark and Mark's patience
2250		with my insistence that things fit cleanly into the V8
2251		framework is gratefully appreciated.
2252	New SingleThreadDelivery option (requires HostStatusDirectory to
2253		operate).  Avoids letting two sendmails on the local machine
2254		open connections to the same remote host at the same time.  
2255		This reduces load on the other machine, but can cause mail to
2256		be delayed (for example, if one sendmail is delivering a huge
2257		message, other sendmails won't be able to send even small
2258		messages).  Also, it requires another file descriptor (for the
2259		lock file) per connection, so you may have to reduce
2260		ConnectionCacheSize to avoid running out of per-process
2261		file descriptors.  Based on the persistent host status code
2262		contributed by Paul Vixie and Mark Lovell.
2263	Allow sending to non-simple files (e.g., /dev/null) even if the
2264		SafeFileEnvironment option is set.  Problem noted by Bryan
2265		Costales.
2266	The -qR flag mistakenly matched flags in the "R" line of the queue
2267		file.  Problem noted by Bryan Costales.
2268	If a job was aborted using the interrupt signal (e.g., control-C from
2269		the keyboard), on some occasions an empty df file would be
2270		left around; these would collect in the queue directory.
2271		Problem noted by Bryan Costales.
2272	Change the makesendmail script to enhance the search for Makefiles
2273		based on release number.  For example, on SunOS 5.5.1, it will
2274		search for Makefile.SunOS.5.5.1, Makefile.SunOS.5.5, and then
2275		Makefile.SunOS.5.x (in addition to the other rules, e.g.,
2276		adding $arch).  Problem noted by Jason Mastaler of Atlanta
2277		Webmasters.
2278	When creating maps using "newaliases", always map the keys to lower
2279		case when creating the map unless the -f flag is specified on
2280		the map itself.  Previously this was done based on the F=u
2281		flag in the local mailer, which meant you could create aliases
2282		that you could never access.  Problem noted by Bob Wu of DEC.
2283	When a job was read from the queue, the bits causing notification on
2284		failure or delay were always set.  This caused those
2285		notifications to be sent even if NOTIFY=NEVER had been
2286		specified.  Problem noted by Steve Hubert of the University
2287		of Washington, Seattle.
2288	Add new configurable routine validate_connection (in conf.c).  This
2289		lets you decide if you are willing to accept traffic from
2290		this host.  If it returns FALSE, all SMTP commands will return
2291		"550 Access denied".  -DTCPWRAPPERS will include support for
2292		TCP wrappers; you will need to add -lwrap to the link line.
2293		(See src/READ_ME for details.)
2294	Don't include the "THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY" banner on postmaster
2295		bounces.  Some people seemed to think that this could be
2296		confusing (even though it is true).  Suggested by Motonori
2297		Nakamura.
2298	Add new RunAsUser option; this causes sendmail to do a setuid to that
2299		user early in processing to avoid potential security problems.
2300		However, this means that all .forward and :include: files must
2301		be readable by that user, and all files to be written must be
2302		writable by that user and all programs will be executed by that
2303		user.  It is also incompatible with the SafeFileEnvironment
2304		option.  In other words, it may not actually add much to
2305		security.  However, it should be useful on firewalls and other
2306		places where users don't have accounts and the aliases file is
2307		well constrained.
2308	Add Timeout.iconnect.  This is like Timeout.connect except it is used
2309		only on the first attempt to delivery to an address.  It could
2310		be set to be lower than Timeout.connect on the principle that
2311		the mail should go through quickly to responsive hosts; less
2312		responsive hosts get to wait for the next queue run.
2313	Fix a problem on Solaris that occasionally causes programs
2314		(such as vacation) to hang with their standard input connected
2315		to a UDP port.  It also created some signal handling problems.
2316		The problems turned out to be an interaction between vfork(2)
2317		and some of the libraries, particularly NIS/NIS+.  I am
2318		indebted to Tor Egge <tegge@idt.ntnu.no> for this fix.
2319	Change user class map to do the same matching that actual delivery
2320		will do instead of just a /etc/passwd lookup.  This adds
2321		fuzzy matching to the user map.  Patch from Dan Oscarsson.
2322	The Timeout.* options are not safe -- they can be used to create a
2323		denial-of-service attack.  Problem noted by Christophe
2324		Wolfhugel.
2325	Don't send PostmasterCopy messages in the event of a "delayed"
2326		notification.  Suggested by Barry Bouwsma.
2327	Don't advertise "VERB" ESMTP extension if the "noexpn" privacy
2328		option is set, since this disables VERB mode.  Suggested
2329		by John Hawkinson of MIT.
2330	Complain if the QueueDirectory (Q) option is not set.  Problem noted
2331		by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
2332	Only queue messages on transient .forward open failures if there
2333		were no successful opens.  The previous behavior caused it
2334		to queue even if a "fall back" .forward was found.  Problem
2335		noted by Ann-Kian Yeo of the Dept. of Information Systems
2336		and Computer Science (DISCS), NUS, Singapore.
2337	Don't do 8->7 bit conversions when bouncing a MIME message that
2338		is bouncing because of a MIME error during 8->7 bit conversion;
2339		the encapsulated message will bounce again, causing a loop.
2340		Problem noted by Steve Hubert of the University of Washington.
2341	Create xf (transcript) files using the TempFileMode option value
2342		instead of 0644.  Suggested by Ann-Kian Yeo of the
2343		National University of Singapore.
2344	Print errors if setgid/setuid/etc. fail during delivery.  This helps
2345		detect cases where DefaultUid is set to something that the
2346		system can't cope with.
2347	PORTABILITY FIXES:
2348		Support for AIX/RS 2.2.1 from Mark Whetzel of Western
2349			Atlas International.
2350		Patches for Intel Paragon OSF/1 1.3 from Leo Bicknell
2351			<bicknell@ufp.org>.
2352		On DEC OSF/1 3.2 and earlier, the MatchGECOS code would only
2353			work on the first recipient of a message due to a
2354			bug in the getpwent family.  If this is something you
2355			use, you can define DEC_OSF_BROKEN_GETPWENT=1 for a
2356			workaround.  From Maximum Entropy of Sanford C.
2357			Bernstein and Associates.
2358		FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 uname -r returns a string containing
2359			parentheses, which breaks makesendmail.  Reported
2360			by Piero Serini <piero@strider.ibenet.it>.
2361		Sequent DYNIX/ptx 4.0.2 patches from Jack Woolley of
2362			Systems and Computer Technology Corporation.
2363		Solaris 2.x: omit the UUCP grade parameter (-g flag) because
2364			it is system-dependent.  Problem noted by J.J. Bailey
2365			of Bailey Computer Consulting.
2366		Pyramid NILE running DC/OSx support from Earle F. Ake of
2367			Hassler Communication Systems Technology, Inc.
2368		HP-UX 10.x compile glitches, reported by Anne Brink of the
2369			U.S. Army and James Byrne of Harte & Lyne Limited.
2370		NetBSD from Matthew Green of the NetBSD crew.
2371		SCO 5.x from Keith Reynolds of SCO.
2372		IRIX 6.2 from Robert Tarrall of the University of
2373			Colorado and Kari Hurtta of the Finnish Meteorological
2374			Institute.
2375		UXP/DS (Fujitsu/ICL DS/90 series) support from Diego R.
2376			Lopez, CICA (Seville).
2377		NCR SVR4 MP-RAS 3.x support from Tom Moore of NCR.
2378		PTX 3.2.0 from Kenneth Stailey of the US Department of Labor
2379			Employment Standards Administration.
2380		Altos System V (5.3.1) from Tim Rice of Multitalents.
2381		Concurrent Systems Corporation Maxion from Donald R. Laster
2382			Jr.
2383		NetInfo maps (improved debugging and multi-valued aliases)
2384			from Adrian Steinmann of Steinmann Consulting.
2385		ConvexOS 11.5 (including SecureWare C2 and the Share Scheduler)
2386			from Eric Schnoebelen of Convex.
2387		Linux 2.0 mail.local patches from Horst von Brand.
2388		NEXTSTEP 3.x compilation from Robert La Ferla.
2389		NEXTSTEP 3.x code changes from Allan J. Nathanson of NeXT.
2390		Solaris 2.5 configuration fixes for mail.local by Jim Davis
2391			of the University of Arizona.
2392		Solaris 2.5 has a working setreuid.  Noted by David Linn of
2393			Vanderbilt University.
2394		Solaris changes for praliases, makemap, mailstats, and smrsh.
2395			Previously you had to add -DSOLARIS in Makefile.dist;
2396			this auto-detects.  Based on a patch from Randall
2397			Winchester of the University of Maryland.
2398	CONFIG: add generic-nextstep3.3.mc file.  Contributed by
2399		Robert La Ferla of Hot Software.
2400	CONFIG: allow mailertables to resolve to ``error:code message''
2401		(where "code" is an exit status) on domains (previously
2402		worked only on hosts).  Patch from Cor Bosman of Xs4all
2403		Foundation.
2404	CONFIG: hooks for IPv6-style domain literals.
2405	CONFIG: predefine ALIAS_FILE and change the prototype file so that
2406		if it is undefined the AliasFile option is never set; this
2407		should be transparent for most everyone.  Suggested by John
2408		Myers of CMU.
2409	CONFIG: add FEATURE(limited_masquerade).  Without this feature, any
2410		domain listed in $=w is masqueraded.  With it, only those
2411		domains listed in a MASQUERADE_DOMAIN macro are masqueraded.
2412	CONFIG: add FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain).  This causes
2413		masquerading specified by MASQUERADE_DOMAIN to apply to all
2414		hosts under those domains as well as the domain headers
2415		themselves.  For example, if a configuration had
2416		MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(foo.com), then without this feature only
2417		foo.com would be masqueraded; with it, *.foo.com would be
2418		masqueraded as well.  Based on an implementation by Richard
2419		(Pug) Bainter of U. Texas.
2420	CONFIG: add FEATURE(genericstable) to do a more general rewriting of
2421		outgoing addresses.  Defaults to ``hash -o /etc/genericstable''.
2422		Keys are user names; values are outgoing mail addresses.  Yes,
2423		this does overlap with the user database, and figuring out
2424		just when to use which one may be tricky.  Based on code
2425		contributed by Richard (Pug) Bainter of U. Texas with updates
2426		from Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
2427	CONFIG: add FEATURE(virtusertable) to do generalized rewriting of
2428		incoming addresses.  Defaults to ``hash -o /etc/virtusertable''.
2429		Keys are either fully qualified addresses or just the host
2430		part (with the @ sign).  For example, a table containing:
2431			info@foo.com	foo-info
2432			info@bar.com	bar-info
2433			@baz.org	jane@elsewhere.net
2434		would send all mail destined for info@foo.com to foo-info
2435		(which is presumably an alias), mail addressed to info@bar.com
2436		to bar-info, and anything addressed to anyone at baz.org will
2437		be sent to jane@elsewhere.net.  The names foo.com, bar.com,
2438		and baz.org must all be in $=w.  Based on discussions with
2439		a great many people.
2440	CONFIG: add nullclient configurations to define SMTP_MAILER_FLAGS.
2441		Suggested by Richard Bainter.
2442	CONFIG: add FAX_MAILER_ARGS to tweak the arguments passed to the
2443		"fax" mailer.
2444	CONFIG: allow mailertable entries to resolve to local:user; this
2445		passes the original user@host in to procmail-style local
2446		mailers as the "detail" information to allow them to do
2447		additional clever processing.  From Joe Pruett of
2448		Teleport Corporation.  Delivery to the original user can
2449		be done by specifying "local:" (with nothing after the colon).
2450	CONFIG: allow any context that takes "mailer:domain" to also take
2451		"mailer:user@domain" to force mailing to the given user;
2452		"local:user" can also be used to do local delivery.  This
2453		applies on *_RELAY and in the mailertable entries.  Based
2454		on a suggestion by Ribert Kiessling of Easynet.
2455	CONFIG: Allow FEATURE(bestmx_is_local) to take an argument that
2456		limits the possible domains; this reduces the number of DNS
2457		lookups required to support this feature.  For example,
2458		FEATURE(bestmx_is_local, my.site.com) limits the lookups
2459		to domains under my.site.com.  Code contributed by Anthony
2460		Thyssen <anthony@cit.gu.edu.au>.
2461	CONFIG: LOCAL_RULESETS introduces any locally defined rulesets,
2462		such as the check_rcpt ruleset.  Suggested by Gregory Shapiro
2463		of WPI.
2464	CONFIG: MAILER_DEFINITIONS introduces any mailer definitions, in the
2465		event you have to define local mailers.  Suggested by
2466		Gregory Shapiro of WPI.
2467	CONFIG: fix cases where a three- (or more-) stage route-addr could
2468		be misinterpreted as a list:...; syntax.  Based on a patch by
2469		Vlado Potisk <Vlado_Potisk@tempest.sk>.
2470	CONFIG: Fix masquerading of UUCP addresses when the UUCP relay is
2471		remotely connected.  The address host!user was being
2472		converted to host!user@thishost instead of host!user@uurelay.
2473		Problem noted by William Gianopoulos of Raytheon Company.
2474	CONFIG: add confTO_ICONNECT to set Timeout.iconnect.
2475	CONFIG: change FEATURE(redirect) message from "User not local" to
2476		"User has moved"; the former wording was confusing if the
2477		new address is still on the local host.  Based on a suggestion
2478		by Andreas Luik.
2479	CONFIG: add support in FEATURE(nullclient) for $=E (exposed users).
2480		However, the class is not pre-initialized to contain root.
2481		Suggested by Gregory Neil Shapiro.
2482	CONTRIB: Remove XLA code at the request of the author, Christophe
2483		Wolfhugel.
2484	CONTRIB: Add re-mqueue.pl, contributed by Paul Pomes of Qualcomm.
2485	MAIL.LOCAL: make it possible to compile mail.local on Solaris.  Note
2486		well: this produces a slightly different mailbox format (no
2487		Content-Length: headers), file ownerships and modes are
2488		different (not owned by group mail; mode 600 instead of 660),
2489		and the local mailer flags will have to be tweaked (make them
2490		match bsd4.4) in order to use this mailer.  Patches from Paul
2491		Hammann of the Missouri Research and Education Network.
2492	MAIL.LOCAL: in some cases it could return EX_OK even though there
2493		was a delivery error, such as if the ownership on the file
2494		was wrong or the mode changed between the initial stat and
2495		the open.  Problem reported by William Colburn of the New
2496		Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology.
2497	MAILSTATS: handle zero length files more reliably.  Patch from Bryan
2498		Costales.
2499	MAILSTATS: add man page contributed by Keith Bostic of BSDI.
2500	MAKEMAP: The -d flag (to allow duplicate keys) to a btree map wasn't
2501		honored.  Fix from Michael Scott Shappe.
2502	PRALIASES: add man page contributed by Keith Bostic of BSDI.

25348.7.6/8.7.3	96/09/17
2535	SECURITY: It is possible to force getpwuid to fail when writing the
2536		queue file, causing sendmail to fall back to running programs
2537		as the default user.  This is not exploitable from off-site.
2538		Workarounds include using a unique user for the DefaultUser
2539		(old u & g options) and using smrsh as the local shell.
2540	SECURITY: fix some buffer overruns; in at least one case this allows
2541		a local user to get root.  This is not known to be exploitable
2542		from off-site.  The workaround is to disable chfn(1) commands.
2543
25448.7.5/8.7.3	96/03/04
2545	Fix glitch in 8.7.4 when putting certain internal lines; this can
2546		in some case cause connections to hang or messages to have
2547		extra spaces in odd places.  Patch from Eric Wassenaar;
2548		reports from Eric Hall of Chiron Corporation, Stephen
2549		Hansen of Stanford University, Dean Gaudet of HotWired,
2550		and others.
2551
25528.7.4/8.7.3	96/02/18
2553	SECURITY: In some cases it was still possible for an attacker to
2554		insert newlines into a queue file, thus allowing access to
2555		any user (except root).
2556	CONFIG: no changes -- it is not a bug that the configuration
2557		version number is unchanged.
2558
25598.7.3/8.7.3	95/12/03
2560	Fix botch in name server timeout in RCPT code; this problem caused
2561		two responses in SMTP, which breaks things horribly.  Fix
2562		from Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
2563	Verify that L= value on M lines cannot be negative, which could cause
2564		negative array subscripting.  Not a security problem since
2565		this has to be in the config file, but it could have caused
2566		core dumps.  Pointed out by Bryan Costales.
2567	Fix -d21 debug output for long macro names.  Pointed out by Bryan
2568		Costales.
2569	PORTABILITY FIXES:
2570		SCO doesn't have ftruncate.  From Bill Aten of Computerizers.
2571		IBM's version of arpa/nameser.h defaults to the wrong byte
2572			order.  Tweak it to work properly.  Based on fixes
2573			from Fletcher Mattox of UTexas and Betty Lee of
2574			Stanford University.
2575	CONFIG: add confHOSTS_FILE m4 variable to set HostsFile option.
2576		Deficiency pointed out by Bryan Costales of ICSI.
2577
25788.7.2/8.7.2	95/11/19
2579	REALLY fix the backslash escapes in SmtpGreetingMessage,
2580		OperatorChars, and UnixFromLine options.  They were not
2581		properly repaired in 8.7.1.
2582	Completely delete the Bcc: header if and only if there are other
2583		valid recipient headers (To:, Cc: or Apparently-To:, the
2584		last being a historic botch, of course).  If Bcc: is the
2585		only recipient header in the message, its value is tossed,
2586		but the header name is kept.  The old behavior (always keep
2587		the header name and toss the value) allowed primary recipients
2588		to see that a Bcc: went to _someone_.
2589	Include queue id on ``Authentication-Warning: <host>: <user> set
2590		sender to <address> using -f'' syslog messages.  Suggested
2591		by Kari Hurtta.
2592	If a sequence or switch map lookup entry gets a tempfail but then
2593		continues on to another map type, but the name is not found,
2594		return a temporary failure from the sequence or switch map.
2595		For example, if hosts search ``dns files'' and DNS fails
2596		with a tempfail, the hosts map will go on and search files,
2597		but if it fails the whole thing should be a tempfail, not
2598		a permanent (host unknown) failure, even though that is the
2599		failure in the hosts.files map.  This error caused hard
2600		bounces when it should have requeued.
2601	Aliases to files such as /users/bar/foo/inbox, with /users/bar/foo
2602		owned by bar mode 700 and inbox being setuid bar stopped
2603		working properly due to excessive paranoia.  Pointed out by
2604		John Hawkinson of Panix.
2605	An SMTP RCPT command referencing a host that gave a nameserver
2606		timeout would return a 451 command (8.6 accepted it and
2607		queued it locally).  Revert to the 8.6 behavior in order
2608		to simplify queue management for clustered systems.  Suggested
2609		by Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.  The same problem could break
2610		MH, which assumes that the SMTP session will succeed (tsk, tsk
2611		-- mail gets lost!); this was pointed out by Stuart Pook of
2612		Infobiogen.
2613	Fix possible buffer overflow in munchstring().  This was not a security
2614		problem because you couldn't specify any argument to this
2615		without first giving up root privileges, but it is still a
2616		good idea to avoid future problems.  Problem noted by John
2617		Hawkinson and Sam Hartman of MIT.
2618	``452 Out of disk space for temp file'' messages weren't being
2619		printed.  Fix from David Perlin of Nanosoft.
2620	Don't advertise the ESMTP DSN extension if the SendMimeErrors option
2621		is not set, since this is required to get the actual DSNs
2622		created.  Problem pointed out by John Gardiner Myers of CMU.
2623	Log permission problems that cause .forward and :include: files to
2624		be untrusted or ignored on log level 12 and higher.  Suggested
2625		by Randy Martin of Clemson University.
2626	Allow user ids in U= clauses of M lines to have hyphens and
2627		underscores.
2628	Fix overcounting of recipients -- only happened when sending to an
2629		alias.  Pointed out by Mark Andrews of SGI and Jack Woolley
2630		of Systems and Computer Technology Corporation.
2631	If a message is sent to an address that fails, the error message that
2632		is returned could show some extraneous "success" information
2633		included even if the user did not request success notification,
2634		which was confusing.  Pointed out by Allan Johannesen of WPI.
2635	Config files that had no AliasFile definition were defaulting to
2636		using /etc/aliases; this caused problems with nullclient
2637		configurations.  Change it back to the 8.6 semantics of
2638		having no local alias file unless it is declared.  Problem
2639		noted by Charles Karney of Princeton University.
2640	Fix compile problem if NOTUNIX is defined.  Pointed out by Bryan
2641		Costales of ICSI.
2642	Map lookups of class "userdb" maps were always case sensitive; they
2643		should be controlled by the -f flag like other maps.  Pointed
2644		out by Bjart Kvarme <bjart.kvarme@usit.uio.no>.
2645	Fix problem that caused some addresses to be passed through ruleset 5
2646		even when they were tagged as "sticky" by prefixing the
2647		address with an "@".  Patch from Thomas Dwyer III of Michigan
2648		Technological University.
2649	When converting a message to Quoted-Printable, prevent any lines with
2650		dots alone on a line by themselves.  This is because of the
2651		preponderance of broken mailers that still get this wrong.
2652		Code contributed by Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
2653	Fix F{macro}/file construct -- it previously did nothing.  Pointed
2654		out by Bjart Kvarme of USIT/UiO (Norway).
2655	Announce whether a cached connection is SMTP or ESMTP (in -v mode).
2656		Requested by Allan Johannesen.
2657	Delete check for text format of alias files -- it should be legal
2658		to have the database format of the alias files without the
2659		text version.  Problem pointed out by Joe Rhett of Navigist,
2660		Inc.
2661	If "Ot" was specified with no value, the TZ variable was not properly
2662		imported from the environment.  Pointed out by Frank Crawford
2663		<frank@ansto.gov.au>.
2664	Some architectures core dumped on "program" maps that didn't have
2665		extra arguments.  Patch from Booker C. Bense of Stanford
2666		University.
2667	Queue run processes would re-spawn daemons when given a SIGHUP; only
2668		the parent should do this.  Fix from Brian Coan of the
2669		Association for Progressive Communications.
2670	If MinQueueAge was set and a message was considered but not run
2671		during a queue run and the Timeout.queuereturn interval was
2672		reached, a "timed out" error message would be returned that
2673		didn't include the failed address (and claimed to be a warning
2674		even though it was fatal).  The fix is to not return such
2675		messages until they are actually tried, i.e., in the next
2676		MinQueueAge interval.  Problem noted by Rein Tollevik of
2677		SINTEF RUNIT, Oslo.
2678	Add HES_GETMAILHOST compile flag to support MIT Hesiod distributions
2679		that have the hes_getmailhost() routine.  DEC Hesiod
2680		distributions do not have this routine.  Based on a patch
2681		from Betty Lee of Stanford University.
2682	Extensive cleanups to map open code to handle a locking race condition
2683		in ndbm, hash, and btree format database files on some (most
2684		non-4.4-BSD based) OS architectures.  This should solve the
2685		occasional "user unknown" problem during alias rebuilds that
2686		has plagued me for quite some time.  Based on a patch from
2687		Thomas Dwyer III of Michigan Technological University.
2688	PORTABILITY FIXES:
2689		Solaris: Change location of newaliases and mailq from
2690			/usr/ucb to /usr/bin to match Sun settings.  From
2691			James B. Davis of TCI.
2692		DomainOS: Makefile.DomainOS doesn't require -ldbm.  From
2693			Don Lewis of Silicon Systems.
2694		HP-UX 10: rename Makefile.HP-UX.10 => Makefile.HP-UX.10.x
2695			so that the makesendmail script will find it.  Pointed
2696			out by Richard Allen of the University of Iceland.
2697			Also, use -Aa -D_HPUX_SOURCE instead of -Ae, which
2698			isn't supported on all compilers.
2699		UXPDS: compilation fixes from Diego R. Lopez.
2700	CONFIG: FAX mailer wasn't setting .FAX as a pseudo-domain unless
2701		you also had a FAX_RELAY.  From Thomas.Tornblom@Hax.SE.
2702	CONFIG: Minor glitch in S21 -- attachment of local domain name
2703		didn't have trailing dot.  From Jim Hickstein of Teradyne.
2704	CONFIG: Fix best_mx_is_local feature to allow nested addresses such as
2705		user%host@thishost.  From Claude Scarpelli of Infobiogen
2706		(France).
2707	CONFIG: OSTYPE(hpux10) failed to define the location of the help file.
2708		Pointed out by Hannu Martikka of Nokia Telecommunications.
2709	CONFIG: Diagnose some inappropriate ordering in configuration files,
2710		such as FEATURE(smrsh) listed after MAILER(local).  Based on
2711		a bug report submitted by Paul Hoffman of Proper Publishing.
2712	CONFIG: Make OSTYPE files consistently not override settings that
2713		have already been set.  Previously it worked differently
2714		for different files.
2715	CONFIG: Change relay mailer to do masquerading like 8.6 did.  My take
2716		is that this is wrong, but the change was causing problems
2717		for some people.  From Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
2718	CONTRIB: bitdomain.c patch from John Gardiner Myers <jgm+@CMU.EDU>;
2719		portability changes for Posix environments (no functional
2720		changes).
2721
27228.7.1/8.7.1	95/10/01
2723	Old macros that have become options (SmtpGreetingMessage,
2724		OperatorChars, and UnixFromLine) didn't allow backslash
2725		escapes in the options, where they previously had.  Bug
2726		pointed out by John Hawkinson of MIT.
2727	Fix strange case of an executable called by a program map that
2728		returns a value but also a non-zero exit status; this
2729		would give contradictory results in the higher level; in
2730		particular, the default clause in the map lookup would be
2731		ignored.  Change to ignore the value if the program returns
2732		non-zero exit status.  From Tom Moore of AT&T GIS.
2733	Shorten parameters passed to syslog() in some contexts to avoid a
2734		bug in many vendors' implementations of that routine.  Although
2735		this isn't really a bug in sendmail per se, and my solution
2736		has to assume that syslog() has at least a 1K buffer size
2737		internally (I know some vendors have shortened this
2738		dramatically -- they're on their own), sendmail is a popular
2739		target.  Also, limit the size of %s arguments in sprintf.
2740		These both have possible security implications.  Solutions
2741		suggested by Casper Dik of Sun's Network Security Group
2742		(Holland), Mark Seiden, and others.
2743	Fix a problem that might cause a non-standard -B (body type)
2744		parameter to be passed to the next server with undefined
2745		results.  This could have security implications.
2746	If a filesystem was at > 100% utilization, the freediskspace()
2747		routine incorrectly returned an error rather than zero.
2748		Problem noted by G. Paul Ziemba of Alantec.
2749	Change MX sort order so that local hostnames (those in $=w) always
2750		sort first within a given preference.  This forces the bestmx
2751		map to always return the local host first, if it is included
2752		in the list of highest priority MX records.  From K. Robert
2753		Elz.
2754	Avoid some possible null pointer dereferences.  Fixes from Randy
2755		Martin <WOLF@CLEMSON.EDU>
2756	When sendmail starts up on systems that have no fully qualified
2757		domain name (FQDN) anywhere in the first matching host map
2758		(e.g., /etc/hosts if the hosts service searches "files dns"),
2759		sendmail would sleep to try to find a FQDN, which it really
2760		really needs.  This has been changed to fall through to the
2761		next map type if it can't find a FQDN -- i.e., if the hosts
2762		file doesn't have a FQDN, it will try dns even though the
2763		short name was found in /etc/hosts.  This is probably a crock,
2764		but many people have hosts files without FQDNs.  Remember:
2765		domain names are your friends.
2766	Log a high-priority message if you can't find your FQDN during startup.
2767		Suggested by Simon Barnes of Schlumberger Limited.
2768	When using Hesiod, initialize it early to improve error reporting.
2769		Patch from Don Lewis of Silicon Systems, Inc.
2770	Apparently at least some versions of Linux have a 90 !minute! TCP
2771		connection timeout in the kernel.  Add a new "connect" timeout
2772		to limit this time.  Defaults to zero (use whatever the
2773		kernel provides).  Based on code contributed by J.R. Oldroyd
2774		of TerraNet.
2775	Under some circumstances, a failed message would not be properly
2776		removed from the queue, causing tons of bogus error messages.
2777		(This fix eliminates the problematic EF_KEEPQUEUE flag.)
2778		Problem noted by Allan E Johannesen and Gregory Neil Shapiro
2779		of WPI.
2780	PORTABILITY FIXES:
2781		On IRIX 5.x, there was an inconsistency in the setting
2782			of sendmail.st location.  Change the Makefile to
2783			install it in /var/sendmail.st to match the OSTYPE
2784			file and SGI standards.  From Andre
2785			<andre@curry.zfe.siemens.de>.
2786		Support for Fujitsu/ICL UXP/DS (For the DS/90 Series)
2787			from Diego R. Lopez <drlopez@cica.es>.
2788		Linux compilation patches from J.R. Oldroyd of TerraNet, Inc.
2789		LUNA 2 Mach patches from Motonori Nakamura.
2790		SunOS Makefile was including -ldbm, which is for the old
2791			dbm library.  The ndbm library is part of libc.
2792	CONFIG: avoid bouncing ``user@host.'' (note trailing dot) with
2793		``local configuration error'' in nullclient configuration.
2794		Patch from Gregory Neil Shapiro of WPI.
2795	CONFIG: don't allow an alias file in nullclient configurations --
2796		since all addresses are relayed, they give errors during
2797		rebuild.  Suggested by Per Hedeland of Ericsson.
2798	CONFIG: local mailer on Solaris 2 should always get a -f flag because
2799		otherwise the F=S causes the From_ line to imply that root is
2800		the sender.  Problem pointed out by Claude Scarpelli of
2801		Infobiogen (France).
2802	NEW FILES:
2803		cf/feature/use_ct_file.m4 (omitted from 8.7 by mistake)
2804		src/Makefiles/Makefile.KSR (omitted from 8.7 by mistake)
2805		src/Makefiles/Makefile.UXPDS
2806
28078.7/8.7		95/09/16
2808	Fix a problem that could cause sendmail to run out of file
2809		descriptors due to a trashed data structure after a
2810		vfork.  Fix from Brian Coan of the Institute for
2811		Global Communications.
2812	Change the VRFY response if you have disabled VRFY -- some
2813		people seemed to think that it was too rude.
2814	Avoid reference to uninitialized file descriptor if HASFLOCK
2815		was not defined.  This was used "safely" in the sense
2816		that it only did a stat, but it would have set the
2817		map modification time improperly.  Problem pointed out
2818		by Roy Mongiovi of Georgia Tech.
2819	Clean up the Subject: line on warning messages and return
2820		receipts so that they don't say "Returned mail:"; this
2821		can be confusing.
2822	Move ruleset entry/exit debugging from 21.2 to 21.1 -- this is
2823		useful enough to make it worthwhile printing on "-d".
2824	Avoid logging alias statistics every time you read the alias
2825		file on systems with no database method compiled in.
2826	If you have a name with a trailing dot, and you try looking it
2827		up using gethostbyname without the dot (for /etc/hosts
2828		compatibility), be sure to turn off RES_DEFNAMES and
2829		RES_DNSRCH to avoid finding the wrong name accidentally.
2830		Problem noted by Charles Amos of the University of
2831		Maryland.
2832	Don't do timeouts in collect if you are not running SMTP.
2833		There is nothing that says you can't have a long
2834		running program piped into sendmail (possibly via
2835		/bin/mail, which just execs sendmail).  Problem reported
2836		by Don "Truck" Lewis of Silicon Systems.
2837	Try gethostbyname() even if the DNS lookup fails iff option I
2838		is not set.  This allows you to have hosts listed in
2839		NIS or /etc/hosts that are not known to DNS.  It's normally
2840		a bad idea, but can be useful on firewall machines.  This
2841		should really be broken out on a separate flag, I suppose.
2842	Avoid compile warnings against BIND 4.9.3, which uses function
2843		prototypes.  From Don Lewis of Silicon Systems.
2844	Avoid possible incorrect diagnosis of DNS-related errors caused
2845		by things like attempts to resolve uucp names using
2846		$[ ... $] -- the fix is to clear h_errno at appropriate
2847		times.  From Kyle Jones of UUNET.
2848	SECURITY: avoid denial-of-service attacks possible by destroying
2849		the alias database file by setting resource limits low.
2850		This involves adding two new compile-time options:
2851		HASSETRLIMIT (indicating that setrlimit(2) support is
2852		available) and HASULIMIT (indicating that ulimit(2) support
2853		is available -- the Release 3 form is used).  The former
2854		is assumed on BSD-based systems, the latter on System
2855		V-based systems.  Attack noted by Phil Brandenberger of
2856		Swarthmore University.
2857	New syntaxes in test (-bt) mode:
2858		``.Dmvalue'' will define macro "m" to "value".
2859		``.Ccvalue'' will add "value" to class "c".
2860		``=Sruleset'' will dump the contents of the indicated
2861			ruleset.
2862		``=M'' will display the known mailers.
2863		``-ddebug-spec'' is equivalent to the command-line
2864			-d debug flag.
2865		``$m'' will print the value of macro $m.
2866		``$=c'' will print the contents of class $=c.
2867		``/mx host'' returns the MX records for ``host''.
2868		``/parse address'' will parse address, returning the value of
2869			crackaddr (essentially, the comment information)
2870			and the parsed address.
2871		``/try mailer address'' will rewrite address into the form
2872			it will have when presented to the indicated mailer.
2873		``/tryflags flags'' will set flags used by parsing.  The
2874			flags can be `H' for header or `E' for envelope,
2875			and `S' for sender or `R' for recipient.  These
2876			can be combined, so `HR' sets flags for header
2877			recipients.
2878		``/canon hostname'' will try to canonify hostname and
2879			return the result.
2880		``/map mapname key'' will look up `key' in the indicated
2881			`mapname' and return the result.
2882	Somewhat better handling of UNIX-domain socket addresses -- it
2883		should show the pathname rather than hex bytes.
2884	Restore ``-ba'' mode -- this reads a file from stdin and parses
2885		the header for envelope sender information and uses
2886		CR-LF as message terminators.  It was thought to be
2887		obsolete (used only for Arpanet NCP protocols), but it
2888		turns out that the UK ``Grey Book'' protocols require
2889		that functionality.
2890	Fix a fix in previous release -- if gethostname and gethostbyname
2891		return a name without dots, and if an attempt to canonify
2892		that name fails, wait one minute and try again.  This can
2893		result in an extra 60 second delay on startup if your system
2894		hostname (as returned by hostname(1)) has no dot and no names
2895		listed in /etc/hosts or your NIS map have a dot.
2896	Check for proper domain name on HELO and EHLO commands per
2897		RFC 1123 section 5.2.5.  Problem noted by Thomas Dwyer III
2898		of Michigan Technological University.
2899	Relax chownsafe rules slightly -- old version said that if you
2900		can't tell if _POSIX_CHOWN_RESTRICTED is set (that is,
2901		if fpathconf returned EINVAL or ENOSYS), assume that
2902		chown is not safe.  The new version falls back to whether
2903		you are on a BSD system or not.  This is important for
2904		SunOS, which apparently always returns one of those
2905		error codes.  This impacts whether you can mail to files
2906		or not.
2907	Syntax errors such as unbalanced parentheses in the configuration
2908		file could be omitted if you had "Oem" prior to the
2909		syntax error in the config file.  Change to always print
2910		the error message.  It was especially weird because it
2911		would cause a "warning" message to be sent to the Postmaster
2912		for every message sent (but with no transcript).  Problem
2913		noted by Gregory Paris of Motorola.
2914	Rewrite collect and putbody to handle full 8-bit data, including
2915		zero bytes.  These changes are internally extensive, but
2916		should have minimal impact on external function.
2917	Allow full words for option names -- if the option letter is
2918		(apparently) a space, then take the word following -- e.g.,

2970		The old macros that passed information into sendmail have
2971		been changed to options; those correspondences are:
2972			$e	SmtpGreetingMessage
2973			$l	UnixFromLine
2974			$o	OperatorChars
2975			$q	(deleted -- not necessary)
2976		To avoid possible problems with an older sendmail,
2977		configuration level 6 is accepted by this version of
2978		sendmail; any config file using the new names should
2979		specify "V6" in the configuration.
2980	Change address parsing to properly note that a phrase before a
2981		colon and a trailing semicolon are essentially the same
2982		as text outside of angle brackets (i.e., sendmail should
2983		treat them as comments).  This is to handle the
2984		``group name: addr1, addr2, ..., addrN;'' syntax (it will
2985		assume that ``group name:'' is a comment on the first
2986		address and the ``;'' is a comment on the last address).
2987		This requires config file support to get right.  It does
2988		understand that :: is NOT this syntax, and can be turned
2989		off completely by setting the ColonOkInAddresses option.
2990	Level 6 config files added with new mailer flags:
2991		    A	Addresses are aliasable.
2992		    i	Do udb rewriting on envelope as well as header
2993			sender lines.  Applies to the from address mailer
2994			flags rather than the recipient mailer flags.
2995		    j	Do udb rewriting on header recipient addresses.
2996			Applies to the sender mailer flags rather than the
2997			recipient mailer flags.
2998		    k	Disable check for loops when doing HELO command.
2999		    o	Always run as the mail recipient, even on local
3000			delivery.
3001		    w	Check for an /etc/passwd entry for this user.
3002		    5	Pass addresses through ruleset 5.
3003		    :	Check for :include: on this address.
3004		    |	Check for |program on this address.
3005		    /	Check for /file on this address.
3006		    @	Look up sender header addresses in the user
3007			database.  Applies to the mailer flags for the
3008			mailer corresponding to the envelope sender
3009			address, rather than to recipient mailer flags.
3010		Pre-level 6 configuration files set A, w, 5, :, |, /, and @
3011		on the "local" mailer, the o flag on the "prog" and "*file*"
3012		mailers, and the ColonOkInAddresses option.
3013	Eight-to-seven bit MIME conversions.  This borrows ideas from
3014		John Beck of Hewlett-Packard, who generously contributed
3015		their implementation to me, which I then didn't use (see
3016		mime.c for an explanation of why).  This adds the
3017		EightBitMode option (a.k.a. `8') and an F=8 mailer flag
3018		to control handling of 8-bit data.  These have to cope with
3019		two types of 8-bit data: unlabelled 8-bit data (that is,
3020		8-bit data that is entered without declaring it as 8-bit
3021		MIME -- technically this is illegal according to the
3022		specs) and labelled 8-bit data (that is, it was declared
3023		as 8BITMIME in the ESMTP session or by using the
3024		-B8BITMIME command line flag).  If the F=8 mailer flag is
3025		set then 8-bit data is sent to non-8BITMIME machines
3026		instead of converting to 7 bit (essentially using
3027		just-send-8 semantics).  The values for EightBitMode are:
3028		    m	convert unlabelled 8-bit input to 8BITMIME, and do
3029			any necessary conversion of 8BITMIME to 7BIT
3030			(essentially, the full MIME option).
3031		    p	pass unlabelled 8-bit input, but convert labelled
3032			8BITMIME input to 7BIT as required (default).
3033		    s	strict adherence: reject unlabelled 8-bit input,
3034			convert 8BITMIME to 7BIT as required.  The F=8
3035			flag is ignored.
3036		Unlabelled 8-bit data is rejected in mode `s' regardless of
3037			the setting of F=8.
3038	Add new internal class 'n', which is the set of MIME Content-Types
3039		which can not be 8 to 7 bit encoded because of other
3040		considerations.  Types "multipart/*" and "message/*" are
3041		never directly encoded (although their components can be).
3042	Add new internal class 's', which is the set of subtypes of the
3043		MIME message/* content type that can be treated as though
3044		they are an RFC822 message.  It is predefined to have
3045		"rfc822".  Suggested By Kari Hurtta.
3046	Add new internal class 'e'.  This is the set of MIME
3047		Content-Transfer-Encodings that can be converted to
3048		a seven bit format (Quoted-Printable or Base64).  It is
3049		preinitialized to contain "7bit", "8bit", and "binary".
3050	Add C=charset mailer parameter and the the DefaultCharSet option (no
3051		short name) to set the default character set to use in the
3052		Content-Type: header when doing encoding of an 8-bit message
3053		which isn't marked as MIME into MIME format.  If the C=
3054		parameter is set on the Envelope From address, use that as
3055		the default encoding; else use the DefaultCharSet option.
3056		If neither is set, it defaults to "unknown-8bit" as
3057		suggested by RFC 1428 section 3.
3058	Allow ``U=user:group'' field in mailer definition to set a default
3059		user and group that a mailer will be executed as.  This
3060		overrides the 'u' and 'g' options, and if the `F=S' flag is
3061		also set, it is the uid/gid that will always be used (that
3062		is, the controlling address is ignored).  The values may be
3063		numeric or symbolic; if only a symbolic user is given (no
3064		group) that user's default group in the passwd file is used
3065		as the group.  Based on code donated by Chip Rosenthal of
3066		Unicom.
3067	Allow `u' option to also accept user:group as a value, in the same
3068		fashion as the U= mailer option.
3069	Add the symbolic time zone name in the Arpanet format dates (as
3070		a comment).  This adds a new compile-time configuration
3071		flag: TZ_TYPE can be set to TZ_TM_NAME (use the value
3072		of (struct tm *)->tm_name), TZ_TM_ZONE (use the value
3073		of (struct tm *)->tm_zone), TZ_TZNAME (use extern char
3074		*tzname[(struct tm *)->tm_isdst]), TZ_TIMEZONE (use
3075		timezone()), or TZ_NONE (don't include the comment).  Code
3076		from Chip Rosenthal.
3077	The "Timeout" option (formerly "r") is extended to allow suboptions.
3078		For example,
3079		    O Timeout.helo = 2m
3080		There are also two new suboptions "queuereturn" and
3081		"queuewarn"; these subsume the old T option.  Thus, to
3082		set them both the preferred new syntax is
3083		    O Timeout.queuereturn = 5d
3084		    O Timeout.queuewarn = 4h
3085	Sort queue by host name instead of by message priority if the
3086		QueueSortOrder option (no short name) is set is set to
3087		``host''.  This makes better use of the connection cache,
3088		but may delay more ``interactive'' messages behind large
3089		backlogs under some circumstances.  This is probably a
3090		good option if you have high speed links or don't do lots
3091		of ``batch'' messages, but less good if you are using
3092		something like PPP on a 14.4 modem.  Based on code
3093		contributed by Roy Mongiovi of Georgia Tech (my main
3094		contribution was to make it configurable).
3095	Save i-number of df file in qf file to simplify rebuilding of queue
3096		after disastrous disk crash.  Suggested by Kyle Jones of
3097		UUNET; closely based on code from KJS DECWRL code written
3098		by Paul Vixie.  NOTA BENE: The qf files produced by 8.7
3099		are NOT back compatible with 8.6 -- that is, you can convert
3100		from 8.6 to 8.7, but not the other direction.
3101	Add ``F=d'' mailer flag to disable all use of angle brackets in
3102		route-addrs in envelopes; this is because in some cases
3103		they can be sent to the shell, which interprets them as
3104		I/O redirection.
3105	Don't include error file (option E) with return-receipts; this
3106		can be confusing.
3107	Don't send "Warning: cannot send" messages to owner-* or
3108		*-request addresses.  Suggested by Christophe Wolfhugel
3109		of the Institut Pasteur, Paris.
3110	Allow -O command line flag to set long form options.
3111	Add "MinQueueAge" option to set the minimum time between attempts
3112		to run the queue.  For example, if the queue interval
3113		(-q value) is five minutes, but the minimum queue age
3114		is fifteen minutes, jobs won't be tried more often than
3115		once every fifteen minutes.  This can be used to give
3116		you more responsiveness if your delivery mode is set to
3117		queue-only.
3118	Allow "fileopen" timeout (default: 60 seconds) for opening
3119		:include: and .forward files.
3120	Add "-k", "-v", and "-z" flags to map definitions; these set the
3121		key field name, the value field name, and the field
3122		delimiter.  The field delimiter can be a single character
3123		or the sequence "\t" or "\n" for tab or newline.
3124		These are for use by NIS+ and similar access methods.
3125	Change maps to always strip quotes before lookups; the -q flag
3126		turns off this behavior.  Suggested by Motonori Nakamura.
3127	Add "nisplus" map class.  Takes -k and -v flags to choose the
3128		key and value field names respectively.  Code donated by
3129		Sun Microsystems.
3130	Add "hesiod" map class.  The "file name" is used as the
3131		"HesiodNameType" parameter to hes_resolve(3).  Returns the
3132		first value found for the match.  Code donated by Scott
3133		Hutton of Indiana University.
3134	Add "netinfo" (NeXT NetInfo) map class.  Maps can have a -k flag to
3135		specify the name of the property that is searched as the
3136		key and a -v flag to specify the name of the property that
3137		is returned as the value (defaults to "members").  The
3138		default map is "/aliases".  Some code based on code
3139		contributed by Robert La Ferla of Hot Software.
3140	Add "text" map class.  This does slow, linear searches through
3141		text files.  The -z flag specifies a column delimiter
3142		(defaults to any sequence of white space), the -k flag
3143		sets the key column number, and the -v flag sets the
3144		value column number.  Lines beginning with `#' are treated
3145		as comments.
3146	Add "program" map class to execute arbitrary programs.  The search
3147		key is presented as the last argument; the output is one
3148		line read from the programs standard output.  Exit statuses
3149		are from sysexits.h.
3150	Add "sequence" map class -- searches maps in sequence until it
3151		finds a match.  For example, the declarations:
3152		    Kmap1 ...
3153		    Kmap2 ...
3154		    Kmapseq sequence map1 map2
3155		defines a map "mapseq" that first searches map1; if the
3156		value is found it is returned immediately, otherwise
3157		map2 is searched and the value returned.
3158	Add "switch" map class.  This is much like "sequence" except that
3159		the ordering is fetched from an external file, usually
3160		the system service switch.  The parameter is the name of
3161		the service to switch on, and the maps that it will use
3162		are the name of the switch map followed by ".service_type".
3163		For example, if the declaration of the map is
3164		    Ksample switch hosts
3165		and the system service switch specifies that hosts are
3166		looked up using dns and nis in that order, then this is
3167		equivalent to
3168		    Ksample sequence sample.dns sample.nis
3169		The subordinate maps (sample.*) must already be defined.
3170	Add "user" map class -- looks up users using getpwnam.  Takes a
3171		"-v field" flag on the definition that tells what passwd
3172		entry to return -- legal values are name, passwd, uid, gid,
3173		gecos, dir, and shell.  Generally expected to be used with
3174		the -m (matchonly) flag.
3175	Add "bestmx" map class -- returns the best MX value for the host
3176		listed as the value.  If there are several "best" MX records
3177		for this host, one will be chosen at random.
3178	Add "userdb" map class -- looks up entries in the user database.
3179		The "file name" is actually the tag that will be used,
3180		typically "mailname".  If there are multiple entries
3181		matching the name, the one chosen is undefined.
3182	Add multiple queue timeouts (both return and warning).  These are
3183		set by the Precedence: or Priority: header fields to one of
3184		three values.  If a Priority: is set and has value "normal",
3185		"urgent", or "non-urgent" the corresponding timeouts are 
3186		used.  If no priority is set, the Precedence: is consulted;
3187		if negative, non-urgent timeouts are used; if greater than
3188		zero, urgent timeouts are used.  Otherwise, normal timeouts
3189		are used.  The timeouts are set by setting the six timeouts
3190		queue{warn,return}.{urgent,normal,non-urgent}.
3191	Fix problem when a mail address is resolved to a $#error mailer
3192		with a temporary failure indication; it works in SMTP,
3193		but when delivering locally the mail is silently discarded.
3194		This patch, from Kyle Jones of UUNET, bounces it instead
3195		of queueing it (queueing is very hard).
3196	When using /etc/hosts or NIS-style lookups, don't assume that
3197		the first name in the list is the best one -- instead,
3198		search for the first one with a dot.  For example, if
3199		an /etc/hosts entry reads
3200		    128.32.149.68	mammoth mammoth.CS.Berkeley.EDU
3201		this change will use the second name as the canonical
3202		machine name instead of the initial, unqualified name.
3203	Change dequote map to replace spaces in quoted text with a value
3204		indicated by the -s flag on the dequote map definition.
3205		For example, ``Mdequote dequote -s_'' will change
3206		"Foo Bar" into an unquoted Foo_Bar instead of leaving it
3207		quoted (because of the space character).  Suggested by Dan
3208		Oscarsson for use in X.400 addresses.
3209	Implement long macro names as ${name}; long class names can
3210		be similarly referenced as $={name} and $~{name}.
3211		Definitions are (e.g.) ``D{name}value''.  Names that have
3212		a leading lower case letter or punctuation characters are
3213		reserved for internal use by sendmail; i.e., config files
3214		should use names that begin with a capital letter.  Based
3215		on code contributed by Dan Oscarsson.
3216	Fix core dump if getgrgid returns a null group list (as opposed
3217		to an empty group list, that is, a pointer to a list
3218		with no members).  Fix from Andrew Chang of Sun Microsystems.
3219	Fix possible core dump if malloc fails -- if the malloc in xalloc
3220		failed, it called syserr which called newstr which called
3221		xalloc....  The newstr is now avoided for "panic" messages.
3222		Reported by Stuart Kemp of James Cook University.
3223	Improve connection cache timeouts; previously, they were not even
3224		checked if you were delivering to anything other than an
3225		IPC-connected host, so a series of (say) local mail
3226		deliveries could cause cached connections to be open
3227		much longer than the specified timeout.
3228	If an incoming message exceeds the maximum message size, stop
3229		writing the incoming bytes to the queue data file, since
3230		this can fill your mqueue partition -- this is a possible
3231		denial-of-service attack.
3232	Don't reject all numeric local user names unless HESIOD is
3233		defined.  It turns out that Posix allows all-numeric
3234		user names.  Fix from Tony Sanders of BSDI.
3235	Add service switch support.  If the local OS has a service
3236		switch (e.g., /etc/nsswitch.conf on Solaris or /etc/svc.conf
3237		on DEC systems) that will be used; otherwise, it falls back
3238		to using a local mechanism based on the ServiceSwitchFile
3239		option (default: /etc/service.switch).  For example, if the
3240		service switch lists "files" and "nis" for the aliases
3241		service, that will be the default lookup order.  the "files"
3242		("local" on DEC) service type expands to any alias files
3243		you listed in the configuration file, even if they aren't
3244		actually file lookups.
3245	Option I (NameServerOptions) no longer sets the "UseNameServer"
3246		variable which tells whether or not DNS should be considered
3247		canonical.  This is now determined based on whether or not
3248		"dns" is in the service list for "hosts".
3249	Add preliminary support for the ESMTP "DSN" extension (Delivery
3250		Status Notifications).  DSN notifications override
3251		Return-Receipt-To: headers, which are bogus anyhow --
3252		support for them has been removed.
3253	Add T=mts-name-type/address-type/diagnostic-type keyletter to mailer
3254		definitions to define the types used in DSN returns for
3255		MTA names, addresses, and diagnostics respectively.
3256	Extend heuristic to force running in ESMTP mode to look for the
3257		five-character string "ESMTP" anywhere in the 220 greeting
3258		message (not just the second line).  This is to provide
3259		better compatibility with other ESMTP servers.
3260	Print sequence number of job when running the queue so you can
3261		easily see how much progress you have made.  Suggested
3262		by Peter Wemm of DIALix.
3263	Map newlines to spaces in logged message-ids; some versions of
3264		syslog truncate the rest of the line after newlines.
3265		Suggested by Fletcher Mattox of U. Texas.
3266	Move up forking for job runs so that if a message is split into
3267		multiple envelopes you don't get "fork storms" -- this
3268		also improves the connection cache utilization.
3269	Accept "<<>>", "<<<>>>", and so forth as equivalent to "<>" for
3270		the purposes of refusing to send error returns.  Suggested
3271		by Motonori Nakamura of Ritsumeikan University.
3272	Relax rules on when a file can be written when referenced from
3273		the aliases file: use the default uid/gid instead of the
3274		real uid/gid.  This allows you to create a file owned by
3275		and writable only by the default uid/gid that will work
3276		all the time (without having the setuid bit set).  Change
3277		suggested by Shau-Ping Lo and Andrew Cheng of Sun
3278		Microsystems.
3279	Add "DialDelay" option (no short name) to provide an "extra"
3280		delay for dial on demand systems.  If this is non-zero
3281		and a connect fails, sendmail will wait this long and
3282		then try again.  If it takes longer than the kernel
3283		timeout interval to establish the connection, this
3284		option can give the network software time to establish
3285		the link.  The default units are seconds.
3286	Move logging of sender information to be as early as possible;
3287		previously, it could be delayed a while for SMTP mail
3288		sent to aliases.  Suggested by Brad Knowles of the
3289		Defense Information Systems Agency.
3290	Call res_init() before setting RES_DEBUG; this is required by
3291		BIND 4.9.3, or so I'm told.  From Douglas Anderson of
3292		the National Computer Security Center.
3293	Add xdelay= field in logs -- this is a transaction delay, telling
3294		you how long it took to deliver to this address on the
3295		last try.  It is intended to be used for sorting mailing
3296		lists to favor "quick" addresses.  Provided for use by
3297		the mailprio scripts (see below).
3298	If a map cannot be opened, and that map is non-optional, and
3299		an address requires that map for resolution, queue the
3300		map instead of bouncing it.  This involves creating a
3301		pseudo-class of maps called "bogus-map" -- if a required
3302		map cannot be opened, the class is changed to bogus-map;
3303		all queries against bogus-map return "tempfail".  The
3304		bogus-map class is not directly accessible.  A sample
3305		implementation was donated by Jem Taylor of Glasgow
3306		University Computing Service.
3307	Fix a possible core dump when mailing to a program that talks
3308		SMTP on its standard input.  Fix from Keith Moore of
3309		the University of Kentucky.
3310	Make it possible to resolve filenames to $#local $: @ /filename;
3311		previously, the "@" would cause it to not be recognized
3312		as a file.  Problem noted by Brian Hill of U.C. Davis.
3313	Accept a -1 signal to re-exec the daemon.  This only works if
3314		argv[0] is a full path to sendmail.
3315	Fix bug in "addr=..." field in O option on little-endian machines
3316		-- the network number wasn't being converted to network
3317		byte order.  Patch from Kurt Lidl of Pix Technologies
3318		Corporation.
3319	Pre-initialize the resolver early on; this is to avoid a bug with
3320		BIND 4.9.3 that can cause the _res.retry field to get
3321		reset to zero, causing all name server lookups to time
3322		out.  Fix from Matt Day of Artisoft.
3323	Restore T line (trusted users) in config file -- but instead of
3324		locking out the -f flag, they just tell whether or not
3325		an X-Authentication-Warning: will be added.  This really
3326		just creates new entries in class 't', so "Ft/file/name"
3327		can be used to read trusted user names from a file.
3328		Trusted users are also allowed to execute programs even
3329		if they have a shell that isn't in /etc/shells.
3330	Improve NEWDB alias file rebuilding so it will create them
3331		properly if they do not already exist.  This had been
3332		a MAYBENEXTRELEASE feature in 8.6.9.
3333	Check for @:@ entry in NIS maps before starting up to avoid
3334		(but not prevent, sigh) race conditions.  This ought to
3335		be handled properly in ypserv, but isn't.  Suggested by
3336		Michael Beirne of Motorola.
3337	Refuse connections if there isn't enough space on the filesystem
3338		holding the queue.  Contributed by Robert Dana of Wolf
3339		Communications.
3340	Skip checking for directory permissions in the path to a file
3341		when checking for file permissions iff setreuid()
3342		succeeded -- it is unnecessary in that case.  This avoids
3343		significant performance problems when looking for .forward
3344		files.  Based on a suggestion by Win Bent of USC.
3345	Allow symbolic ruleset names.  Syntax can be "Sname" to get an
3346		arbitrary ruleset number assigned or "Sname = integer"
3347		to assign a specific ruleset number.  Reference is
3348		$>name_or_number.  Names can be composed of alphas, digits,
3349		underscore, or hyphen (first character must be non-numeric).
3350	Allow -o flag on AliasFile lines to make the alias file optional.
3351		From Bryan Costales of ICSI.
3352	Add NoRecipientAction option to handle the case where there is
3353		no legal recipient header in the message.  It can take
3354		on values:
3355		  None			Leave the message as is.  The
3356					message will be passed on even
3357					though it is in technically
3358					illegal syntax.
3359		  Add-To		Add a To: header with any
3360					recipients that it can find from
3361					the envelope.  This risks exposing
3362					Bcc: recipients.
3363		  Add-Apparently-To	Add an Apparently-To: header.  This
3364					has almost no redeeming social value,
3365					and is provided only for back
3366					compatibility.
3367		  Add-To-Undisclosed	Add a header reading
3368					To: undisclosed-recipients:;
3369					which will have the effect of
3370					making the message legal without
3371					exposing Bcc: recipients.
3372		  Add-Bcc		To add an empty Bcc: header.
3373					There is a chance that mailers down
3374					the line will delete this header,
3375					which could cause exposure of Bcc:
3376					recipients.
3377		The default is NoRecipientAction=None.
3378	Truncate (rather than delete) Bcc: lines in the header.  This
3379		should prevent later sendmails (at least, those that don't
3380		themselves delete Bcc:) from considering this message to
3381		be non-conforming -- although it does imply that non-blind
3382		recipients can see that a Bcc: was sent, albeit not to whom.
3383	Add SafeFileEnvironment option.  If declared, files named as delivery
3384		targets must be regular files in addition to the regular
3385		checks.  Also, if the option is non-null then it is used as
3386		the name of a directory that is used as a chroot(2)
3387		environment for the delivery; the file names listed in an
3388		alias or forward should include the name of this root.
3389		For example, if you run with
3390			O SafeFileEnvironment=/arch
3391		then aliases should reference "/arch/rest/of/path".  If a
3392		value is given, sendmail also won't try to save to
3393		/usr/tmp/dead.letter (instead it just leaves the job in the
3394		queue as Qfxxxxxx).  Inspired by *Hobbit*'s sendmail patch kit.
3395	Support -A flag for alias files; this will comma concatenate like
3396		entries.  For example, given the aliases:
3397			list: member1
3398			list: member2
3399		and an alias file declared as:
3400			OAhash:-A /etc/aliases
3401		the final alias inserted will be "list: member1,member2";
3402		without -A you will get an error on the second and subsequent
3403		alias for "list".  Contributed by Bryan Costales of ICSI.
3404	Line-buffer transcript file.  Suggested by Liudvikas Bukys.
3405	Fix a problem that could cause very long addresses to core dump in
3406		some special circumstances.  Problem pointed out by Allan
3407		Johannesen.
3408	(Internal change.)  Change interface to expand() (macro expansion)
3409		to be simpler and more consistent.
3410	Delete check for funny qf file names.  This didn't really give
3411		any extra security and caused some people some problems.
3412		(If you -really- want this, define PICKY_QF_NAME_CHECK
3413		at compile time.)  Suggested by Kyle Jones of UUNET.
3414	(Internal change.)  Change EF_NORETURN to EF_NO_BODY_RETN and
3415		merge with DSN code; this is simpler and more consistent.
3416		This may affect some people who have written their own
3417		checkcompat() routine.
3418	(Internal change.)  Eliminate `D' line in qf file.  The df file
3419		is now assumed to be the same name as the qf file (with
3420		the `q' changed to a `d', of course).
3421	Avoid forking for delivery if all recipient mailers are marked as
3422		"expensive" -- this can be a major cost on some systems.
3423		Essentially, this forces sendmail into "queue only" mode
3424		if all it is going to do is queue anyway.
3425	Avoid sending a null message in some rather unusual circumstances
3426		(specifically, the RCPT command returns a temporary
3427		failure but the connection is lost before the DATA
3428		command).  Fix from Scott Hammond of Secure Computing
3429		Corporation.
3430	Change makesendmail to use a somewhat more rational naming scheme:
3431		Makefiles and obj directories are named $os.$rel.$arch,
3432		where $os is the operating system (e.g., SunOS), $rel is
3433		the release number (e.g., 5.3), and $arch is the machine
3434		architecture (e.g., sun4).  Any of these can be omitted,
3435		and anything after the first dot in a release number can
3436		be replaced with "x" (e.g., SunOS.4.x.sun4).  The previous
3437		version used $os.$arch.$rel and was rather less general.
3438	Change makesendmail to do a "make depend" in the target directory
3439		when it is being created.  This involves adding an empty
3440		"depend:" entry in most Makefiles.
3441	Ignore IDENT return value if the OSTYPE field returns "OTHER",
3442		as indicated by RFC 1413.  Pointed out by Kari Hurtta
3443		of the Finnish Meteorological Institute.
3444	Fix problem that could cause multiple responses to DATA command
3445		on header syntax errors (e.g., lines beginning with colons).
3446		Problem noted by Jens Thomassen of the University of Oslo.
3447	Don't let null bytes in headers cause truncation of the rest of
3448		the header.
3449	Log Authentication-Warning:s.  Suggested by Motonori Nakamura.
3450	Increase timeouts on message data puts to allow time for receivers
3451		to canonify addresses in headers on the fly.  This is still
3452		a rather ugly heuristic.  From Motonori Nakamura.
3453	Add "HasWildcardMX" suboption to ResolverOptions; if set, MX
3454		records are not used when canonifying names, and when MX
3455		lookups are done for addressing they must be fully
3456		qualified.  This is useful if you have a wildcard MX record,
3457		although it may cause other problems.  In general, don't use
3458		wildcard MX records.  Patch from Motonori Nakamura.
3459	Eliminate default two-line SMTP greeting message.  Instead of
3460		adding an extra "ESMTP spoken here" line, the word "ESMTP"
3461		is added between the first and second word of the first
3462		line of the greeting message (i.e., immediately after the
3463		host name).  This eliminates the need for the BROKEN_SMTP_PEERS
3464		compile flag.  Old sendmails won't see the ESMTP, but that's
3465		acceptable because SIZE was the only useful extension that
3466		old sendmails understand.
3467	Avoid gethostbyname calls on UNIX domain sockets during SIGUSR1
3468		invoked state dumps.  From Masaharu Onishi.
3469	Allow on-line comments in .forward and :include: files; they are
3470		introduced by the string "<LWSP>#@#<LWSP>", where <LWSP>
3471		is a space or a tab.  This is intended for native
3472		representation of non-ASCII sets such as Japanese, where
3473		existing encodings would be unreadable or would lose
3474		data -- for example,
3475		 <motonori@cs.ritsumei.ac.jp> NAKAMURA Motonori
3476					(romanized/less information)
3477		 <motonori@cs.ritsumei.ac.jp> =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCQ2ZCPBsoQg==?=
3478					      =?ISO-2022-JP?B?GyRCQUdFNRsoQg==?=
3479					(with MIME encoding, not human readable)
3480		 <motonori@cs.ritsumei.ac.jp> #@# ^[$BCfB<^[(B ^[$BAGE5^[(B
3481					(native encoding with ISO-2022-JP)
3482		The last form is human readable in the Japanese environment.
3483		Based on a fix from (surprise!) Motonori Nakamura.
3484	Don't make SMTP error returns on MAIL FROM: line be "sticky" for all
3485		messages to that host; these are most frequently associated
3486		with addresses rather than the host, with the exception of
3487		421 (service shutting down).  The effect was to cause queues
3488		to sometimes take an excessive time to flush.  Reported by
3489		Robert Sargent of Southern Geographics Technologies and
3490		Eric Prestemon of American University.
3491	Add Nice=N mailer option to set the niceness at which a mailer will
3492		run.  This is actually a relative niceness (that is, an
3493		increment on the background value).
3494	Log queue runs that are skipped due to high loads.  They are logged
3495		at LOG_INFO priority iff the log level is > 8.  Contributed
3496		by Bruce Nagel of Data General.
3497	Allow the error mailer to accept a DSN-style error status code
3498		instead of an sysexits status code in the host part.
3499		Anything with a dot will be interpreted as a DSN-style code.
3500	Add new mailer flag: F=3 will tell translations to Quoted-Printable
3501		to encode characters that might be munged by an EBCDIC system
3502		in addition to the set required by RFC 1521.  The additional
3503		characters are !, ", #, $, @, [, \, ], ^, `, {, |, }, and ~.
3504		(Think of "IBM 360" as the mnemonic for this flag.)
3505	Change check for mailing to files to look for a pathname of [FILE]
3506		rather than looking for the mailer named *file*.  The mapping
3507		of leading slashes still goes to the *file* mailer.  This
3508		allows you to implement the *file* mailer as a separate
3509		program, for example, to insert a Content-Length: header
3510		or do special security policy.  However, note that the usual
3511		initial checking for the file permissions is still done, and
3512		the program in question needs to be very careful about how
3513		it does the file write to avoid security problems.
3514	Be able to read ~root/.forward even if the path isn't accessible to
3515		regular users.  This is disrecommended because sendmail
3516		sometimes does not run as root (e.g., when an unsafe option
3517		is specified on the command line), but should otherwise be
3518		safe because .forward files must be owned by the user for
3519		whom mail is being forwarded, and cannot be a symbolic link.
3520		Suggested by Forrest Aldrich of Wang Laboratories.
3521	Add new "HostsFile" option that is the pathname to the /etc/hosts
3522		file.  This is used for canonifying hostnames when the
3523		service type is "files".
3524	Implement programs on F (read class from file) line.  The syntax is
3525		Fc|/path/to/program to read the output from the program
3526		into class "c".
3527	Probe the network interfaces to find alternate names for this
3528		host.  Requires the SIOCGIFCONF ioctl call.  Code
3529		contributed by SunSoft.
3530	Add "E" configuration line to set or propagate environment
3531		variables into children.  "E<envar>" will propagate
3532		the named variable from the environment when sendmail
3533		was invoked into any children it calls; "E<envar>=<value>"
3534		sets the named variable to the indicated value.  Any
3535		variables not explicitly named will not be in the child
3536		environment.  However, sendmail still forces an
3537		"AGENT=sendmail" environment variable, in part to enforce
3538		at least one environment variable, since many programs and
3539		libraries die horribly if this is not guaranteed.
3540	Change heuristic for rebuilding both NEWDB and NDBM versions of
3541		alias databases -- new algorithm looks for the substring
3542		"/yp/" in the file name.  This is more portable and involves
3543		less overhead.  Suggested by Motonori Nakamura.
3544	Dynamically allocate the queue work list so that you don't lose
3545		jobs in large queue runs.  The old QUEUESIZE compile parameter
3546		is replaced by QUEUESEGSIZE (the unit of allocation, which
3547		should not need to be changed) and the MaxQueueRunSize option,
3548		which is the absolute maximum number of jobs that will ever
3549		be handled in a single queue run.  Based on code contributed
3550		by Brian Coan of the Institute for Global Communications.
3551	Log message when a message is dropped because it exceeds the maximum
3552		message size.  Suggested by Leo Bicknell of Virginia Tech.
3553	Allow trusted users (those on a T line or in $=t) to use -bs without
3554		an X-Authentication-Warning: added.  Suggested by Mark Thomas
3555		of Mark G. Thomas Consulting.
3556	Announce state of compile flags on -d0.1 (-d0.10 throws in the
3557		OS-dependent defines).  The old semantic of -d0.1 to not
3558		run the daemon in background has been moved to -d99.100,
3559		and the old 52.5 flag (to avoid disconnect() from closing
3560		all output files) has been moved to 52.100.  This makes
3561		things more consistent (flags below .100 don't change
3562		semantics) and separates out the backgrounding so that
3563		it doesn't happen automatically on other unrelated debugging
3564		flags.
3565	If -t is used but no addresses are found in the header, give an
3566		error message rather than just doing nothing.  Fix from
3567		Motonori Nakamura.
3568	On systems (like SunOS) where the effective gid is not necessarily
3569		included in the group list returned by getgroups(), the
3570		`restrictmailq' option could sometimes cause an authorized
3571		user to not be able to use `mailq'.  Fix from Charles Hannum
3572		of MIT.
3573	Allow symbolic service names for [IPC] mailers.  Suggested by
3574		Gerry Magennis of Logica International.
3575	Add DontExpandCnames option to prevent $[ ... $] from expanding CNAMEs
3576		when running DNS.  For example, if the name FTP.Foo.ORG is
3577		a CNAME for Cruft.Foo.ORG, then when sitting on a machine in
3578		the Foo.ORG domain a lookup of "FTP" returns "Cruft.Foo.ORG"
3579		if this option is not set, or "FTP.Foo.ORG" if it is set.
3580		This is technically illegal under RFC 822 and 1123, but the
3581		IETF is moving toward legalizing it.  Note that turning on
3582		this option is not sufficient to guarantee that a downstream
3583		neighbor won't rewrite the address for you.
3584	Add "-m" flag to makesendmail script -- this tells you what object
3585		directory and Makefile it will use, but doesn't actually do
3586		the make.
3587	Do some additional checking on the contents of the qf file to try
3588		to detect attacks against the qf file.  In particular,
3589		abort on any line beginning "From ", and add an "end of
3590		file" line -- any data after that line is prohibited.
3591	Always use /etc/sendmail.cf, regardless of the arbitrary vendor
3592		choices.  This can be overridden in the Makefile by using
3593		either -DUSE_VENDOR_CF_PATH to get the vendor location
3594		(to the extent that we know it) or by defining
3595		_PATH_SENDMAILCF (which is a "hard override").  This allows
3596		sendmail 8 to have more consistent installation instructions.
3597	Allow macros on `K' line in config file.  Suggested by Andrew Chang
3598		of Sun Microsystems.
3599	Improved symbol table hash function from Eric Wassenaar.  This one
3600		is at least 50% faster.
3601	Fix problem that didn't notice that timeout on file open was a
3602		transient error.  Fix from Larry Parmelee of Cornell
3603		University.
3604	Allow comments (lines beginning with a `#') in files read for
3605		classes.  Suggested by Motonori Nakamura.
3606	Make SIGINT (usually ^C) in test mode return to the prompt instead
3607		of dropping out entirely.  This makes testing some of the
3608		name server lookups easier to deal with when there are
3609		hung servers.  From Motonori Nakamura.
3610	Add new ${opMode} macro that is set to the current operation mode
3611		(e.g., `s' for -bs, `t' for -bt, etc.).  Suggested by
3612		Claude Marinier <MARINIER@emp.ewd.dreo.dnd.ca>.
3613	Add new delivery mode (Odd) that defers all map lookups to queue runs.
3614		Kind of like queue-only mode (Odq) except it tries to avoid
3615		any external service requests; for dial-on-demand hosts that
3616		want to minimize DNS lookups when mail is being queued.  For
3617		this to work you will also have to make sure that gethostbyname
3618		of your local host name does not do a DNS lookup.
3619	Improved handling of "out of space" conditions from John Myers of
3620		Carnegie Mellon.
3621	Improved security for mailing to files on systems that have fchmod(2)
3622		support.
3623	Improve "cannot send message for N days" message -- now says "could
3624		not send for past N days".  Suggested by Tom Moore of AT&T
3625		Global Information Solutions.
3626	Less misleading Subject: line on messages sent to postmaster only.
3627		From Motonori Nakamura.
3628	Avoid duplicate error messages on bad command line flags.  From
3629		Motonori Nakamura.
3630	Better error message for case where ruleset 0 falls off the end
3631		or otherwise does not resolve to a canonical triple.
3632	Fix a problem that could cause multiple bounce messages if a bad
3633		address was sent along with a good address to an SMTP
3634		site where that SMTP site returned a 4yz code in response
3635		to the final dot of the data.  Problem reported by David
3636		James of British Telecom.
3637	Add "volatile" declarations so that gcc -O2 will work.  Patches
3638		from Alexander Dupuy of System Management ARTS.
3639	Delete duplicates in MX lists -- believe it or not, there are sites
3640		that list the same host twice in an MX list.  This deletion
3641		only works on adjacent preferences, so an MX list that
3642		had A=5, B=10, A=15 would leave both As, but one that had
3643		A=5, A=10, B=15 would reduce to A, B.  This is intentional,
3644		just in case there is something weird I haven't thought of.
3645		Suggested by Barry Shein of Software Tool & Die.
3646	SECURITY: .forward files cannot be symbolic links.  If they are,
3647		a bad guy can read your private files.
3648	PORTABILITY FIXES:
3649		Solaris 2 from Rob McMahon <cudcv@csv.warwick.ac.uk>.
3650		System V Release 4 from Motonori Nakamura of Ritsumeikan
3651			University.  This expands the disk size
3652			checking to include all (?) SVR4 configurations.
3653		System V Release 4 from Kimmo Suominen -- initgroups(3)
3654			and setrlimit(2) are both available.
3655		System V Release 4 from sob@sculley.ffg.com -- some versions
3656			apparently "have EX_OK defined in other headerfiles."
3657		Linux Makefile typo.
3658		Linux getusershell(3) is broken in Slackware 2.0 --
3659			from Andrew Pam of Xanadu Australia.
3660		More Linux tweaking from John Kennedy of California State
3661			University, Chico.
3662		Cray changes from Eric Wassenaar:  ``On Cray, shorts,
3663			ints, and longs are all 64 bits, and all structs
3664			are multiples of 64 bits.  This means that the
3665			sizeof operator returns only multiples of 8.
3666			This requires adaptation of code that really
3667			deals with 32 bit or 16 bit fields, such as IP
3668			addresses or nameserver fields.''
3669		DG/UX 5.4.3 from Mark T. Robinson <mtr@ornl.gov>.  To
3670			get the old behavior, use -DDGUX_5_4_2.
3671		DG/UX hack: add _FORCE_MAIL_LOCAL_=yes environment
3672			variable to fix bogus /bin/mail behavior.
3673		Tandem NonStop-UX from Rick McCarty <mccarty@mpd.tandem.com>.
3674			This also cleans up some System V Release 4 compile
3675			problems.
3676		Solaris 2: sendmail.cw file should be in /etc/mail to
3677			match all the other configuration files.  Fix
3678			from Glenn Barry of Emory University.
3679		Solaris 2.3: compile problem in conf.c.  Fix from Alain
3680			Nissen of the University of Liege, Belgium.
3681		Ultrix: freespace calculation was incorrect.  Fix from
3682			Takashi Kizu of Osaka University.
3683		SVR4: running in background gets a SIGTTOU because the
3684			emulation code doesn't realize that "getpeername"
3685			doesn't require reading the file.  Fix from Peter
3686			Wemm of DIALix.
3687		Solaris 2.3: due to an apparent bug in the socket emulation
3688			library, sockets can get into a "wedged" state where
3689			they just return EPROTO; closing and re-opening the
3690			socket clears the problem.  Fix from Bob Manson
3691			of Ohio State University.
3692		Hitachi 3050R & 3050RX running HI-UX/WE2: portability
3693			fixes from Akihiro Hashimoto ("Hash") of Chiba
3694			University.
3695		AIX changes to allow setproctitle to work from Rainer Sch�pf
3696			of Zentrum f�r Datenverarbeitung der Universit�t
3697			Mainz.
3698		AIX changes for load average from Ed Ravin of NASA/Goddard.
3699		SCO Unix from Chip Rosenthal of Unicom (code was using the
3700			wrong statfs call).
3701		ANSI C fixes from Adam Glass (NetBSD project).
3702		Stardent Titan/ANSI C fixes from Kate Hedstrom of Rutgers
3703			University.
3704		DG-UX fixes from Bruce Nagel of Data General.
3705		IRIX64 updates from Mark Levinson of the University of
3706			Rochester Medical Center.
3707		Altos System V (``the first UNIX/XENIX merge the Altos
3708			did for their Series 1000 & Series 2000 line;
3709			their merged code was licensed back to AT&T and
3710			Microsoft and became System V release 3.2'') from
3711			Tim Rice <timr@crl.com>.
3712		OSF/1 running on Intel Paragon from Jeff A. Earickson
3713			<jeff@ssd.intel.com> of Intel Scalable Systems
3714			Division.
3715		Amdahl UTS System V 2.1.5 (SVr3-based) from Janet Jackson
3716			<janet@dialix.oz.au>.
3717		System V Release 4 (statvfs semantic fix) from Alain
3718			Durand of I.M.A.G.
3719		HP-UX 10.x multiprocessor load average changes from
3720			Scott Hutton and Jeff Sumler of Indiana University.
3721		Cray CSOS from Scott Bolte of Cray Computer Corporation.
3722		Unicos 8.0 from Douglas K. Rand of the University of North
3723			Dakota, Scientific Computing Center.
3724		Solaris 2.4 fixes from Sanjay Dani of Dani Communications.
3725		ConvexOS 11.0 from Christophe Wolfhugel.
3726		IRIX 4.0.5 from David Ashton-Reader of CADcentre.
3727		ISC UNIX from J. J. Bailey.
3728		HP-UX 9.xx on the 8xx series machines from Remy Giraud
3729			of Meteo France.
3730		HP-UX configuration from Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>.
3731		IRIX 5.2 and 5.3 from Kari E. Hurtta.
3732		FreeBSD 2.0 from Mike Hickey of Federal Data Corporation.
3733		Sony NEWS-OS 4.2.1R and 6.0.3 from Motonori Nakamura.
3734		Omron LUNA unios-b, mach from Motonori Nakamura.
3735		NEC EWS-UX/V 4.2 from Motonori Nakamura.
3736		NeXT 2.1 from Bryan Costales.
3737		AUX patch thanks to Mike Erwin of Apple Computer.
3738		HP-UX 10.0 from John Beck of Hewlett-Packard.
3739		Ultrix: allow -DBROKEN_RES_SEARCH=0 if you are using a
3740			non-DEC resolver.  Suggested by Allan Johannesen.
3741		UnixWare 2.0 fixes from Petr Lampa of the Technical
3742			University of Brno (Czech Republic).
3743		KSR OS 1.2.2 support from Todd Miller of the University
3744			of Colorado.
3745		UX4800 support from Kazuhisa Shimizu of NEC.
3746	MAKEMAP: allow -d flag to allow insertion of duplicate aliases
3747		in type ``btree'' maps.  The semantics of this are undefined
3748		for regular maps, but it can be useful for the user database.
3749	MAKEMAP: lock database file while rebuilding to avoid sendmail
3750		lookups while the rebuild is going on.  There is a race
3751		condition between the open(... O_TRUNC ...) and the lock
3752		on the file, but it should be quite small.
3753	SMRSH: sendmail restricted shell added to the release.  This can
3754		be used as an alternative to /bin/sh for the "prog" mailer,
3755		giving the local administrator more control over what
3756		programs can be run from sendmail.
3757	MAIL.LOCAL: add this local mailer to the tape.  It is not really
3758		part of the release proper, and isn't fully supported; in
3759		particular, it does not run on System V based systems and
3760		never will.
3761	CONTRIB: a patch to rmail.c from Bill Gianopoulos of Raytheon
3762		to allow rmail to compile on systems that don't have
3763		function prototypes and systems that don't have snprintf.
3764	CONTRIB: add the "mailprio" scripts that will help you sort mailing
3765		lists by transaction delay times so that addresses that
3766		respond quickly get sent first.  This is to prevent very
3767		sluggish servers from delaying other peoples' mail.
3768		Contributed by Tony Sanders of BSDI.
3769	CONTRIB: add the "bsdi.mc" file as contributed by Tony Sanders
3770		of BSDI.  This has a lot of comments to help people out.
3771	CONFIG: Don't have .mc files include(../m4/cf.m4) -- instead,
3772		put this on the m4 command line.  On GNU m4 (which
3773		supports the __file__ primitive) you can run m4 in an
3774		arbitrary directory -- use either:
3775			m4 ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 config.mc > config.cf
3776		or
3777			m4 -I${CFDIR} m4/cf.m4 config.mc > config.cf
3778		On other versions of m4 that don't support __file__, you
3779		can use:
3780			m4 -D_CF_DIR_=${CFDIR}/ ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 ...
3781		(Note the trailing slash on the _CF_DIR_ definition.)
3782		Old versions of m4 will default to _CF_DIR_=.. for back
3783		compatibility.
3784	CONFIG: fix mail from <> so it will properly convert to
3785		MAILER-DAEMON on local addresses.
3786	CONFIG: fix code that was supposed to catch colons in host
3787		names.  Problem noted by John Gardiner Myers of CMU.
3788	CONFIG: allow use of SMTP_MAILER_MAX in nullclient configuration.
3789		From Paul Riddle of the University of Maryland, Baltimore
3790		County.
3791	CONFIG: Catch and reject "." as a host address.
3792	CONFIG: Generalize domaintable to look up all domains, not
3793		just unqualified ones.
3794	CONFIG: Delete OLD_SENDMAIL support -- as near as I can tell, it
3795		was never used and didn't work anyway.
3796	CONFIG: Set flags A, w, 5, :, /, |, and @ on the "local" mailer
3797		and d on all mailers in the UUCP class.
3798	CONFIG: Allow "user+detail" to be aliased specially: it will first
3799		look for an alias for "user+detail", then for "user+*", and
3800		finally for "user".  This is intended for forwarding mail
3801		for system aliases such as root and postmaster to a
3802		centralized hub.
3803	CONFIG: add confEIGHT_BIT_HANDLING to set option 8 (see above).
3804	CONFIG: add smtp8 mailer; this has the F=8 (just-send-8) flag set.
3805		The F=8 flag is also set on the "relay" mailer, since
3806		this is expected to be another sendmail.
3807	CONFIG: avoid qualifying all UUCP addresses sent via SMTP with
3808		the name of the UUCP_RELAY -- in some cases, this is the
3809		wrong value (e.g., when we have local UUCP connections),
3810		and this can create unreplyable addresses.  From Chip
3811		Rosenthal of Unicom.
3812	CONFIG: add confRECEIVED_HEADER to change the format of the
3813		Received: header inserted into all messages. Suggested by
3814		Gary Mills of the University of Manitoba.
3815	CONFIG: Make "notsticky" the default; use FEATURE(stickyhost)
3816		to get the old behavior.  I did this upon observing
3817		that almost everyone needed this feature, and that the
3818		concept I was trying to make happen didn't work with
3819		some user agents anyway.  FEATURE(notsticky) still works,
3820		but it is a no-op.
3821	CONFIG: Add LUSER_RELAY -- the host to which unrecognized user
3822		names are sent, rather than immediately diagnosing them
3823		as User Unknown.
3824	CONFIG: Add SMTP_MAILER_ARGS, ESMTP_MAILER_ARGS, SMTP8_MAILER_ARGS,
3825		and RELAY_MAILER_ARGS to set the arguments for the
3826		indicated mailers.  All default to "IPC $h".  Patch from
3827		Larry Parmelee of Cornell University.
3828	CONFIG: pop mailer needs F=n flag to avoid "annoying side effects
3829		on the client side" and F=P to get an appropriate
3830		return-path.  From Kimmo Suominen.
3831	CONFIG: add FEATURE(local_procmail) to use the procmail program
3832		as the local mailer.  For addresses of the form "user+detail"
3833		the "detail" part is passed to procmail via the -a flag.
3834		Contributed by Kimmo Suominen.
3835	CONFIG: add MAILER(procmail) to add an interface to procmail for
3836		use from mailertables.  This lets you execute arbitrary
3837		procmail scripts.  Contributed by Kimmo Suominen.
3838	CONFIG: add T= fields (MTS type) to local, smtp, and uucp mailers.
3839	CONFIG: add OSTYPE(ptx2) for DYNIX/ptx 2.x from Sequent.  From
3840		Paul Southworth of CICNet Systems Support.
3841	CONFIG: use -a$g as default to UUCP mailers, instead of -a$f.
3842		This causes the null return path to be rewritten as
3843		MAILER-DAEMON; otherwise UUCP gets horribly confused.
3844		From Michael Hohmuth of Technische Universitat Dresden.
3845	CONFIG: Add FEATURE(bestmx_is_local) to cause any hosts that
3846		list us as the best possible MX record to be treated as
3847		though they were local (essentially, assume that they
3848		are included in $=w).  This can cause additional DNS
3849		traffic, but is easier to administer if this fits your
3850		local model.  It does not work reliably if there are
3851		multiple hosts that share the best MX preference.
3852		Code contributed by John Oleynick of Rutgers.
3853	CONFIG: Add FEATURE(smrsh) to use smrsh (the SendMail Restricted
3854		SHell) instead of /bin/sh as the program used for delivery
3855		to programs.  If an argument is included, it is used as
3856		the path to smrsh; otherwise, /usr/local/etc/smrsh is
3857		assumed.
3858	CONFIG: Add LOCAL_MAILER_MAX and PROCMAILER_MAILER_MAX to limit the
3859		size of messages to the local and procmail mailers
3860		respectively.  Contributed by Brad Knowles of the Defense
3861		Information Systems Agency.
3862	CONFIG: Handle leading ``phrase:'' and trailing ``;'' as comments
3863		(just like text outside of angle brackets) in order to
3864		properly deal with ``group: addr1, ... addrN;'' syntax.
3865	CONFIG: Require OSTYPE macro (the defaults really don't apply to
3866		any real systems any more) and tweak the DOMAIN macro
3867		so that it is less likely that users will accidentally use
3868		the Berkeley defaults.  Also, create some generic files
3869		that really can be used in the real world.
3870	CONFIG: Add new configuration macros to set character sets for
3871		messages _arriving from_ various mailers: LOCAL_MAILER_CHARSET,
3872		SMTP_MAILER_CHARSET, and UUCP_MAILER_CHARSET.
3873	CONFIG: Change UUCP_MAX_SIZE to UUCP_MAILER_MAX for consistency.
3874		The old name will still be accepted for a while at least.
3875	CONFIG: Implement DECNET_RELAY as spec for host to which DECNET
3876		mail (.DECNET pseudo-domain or node::user) will be sent.
3877		As with all relays, it can be ``mailer:hostname''.  Suggested
3878		by Scott Hutton.
3879	CONFIG: Add MAILER(mail11) to get DECnet support.  Code contributed
3880		by Barb Dijker of Labyrinth Computer Services.
3881	CONFIG: change confCHECK_ALIASES to default to False -- it has poor
3882		performance for large alias files, and this confused many
3883		people.
3884	CONFIG: Add confCF_VERSION to append local information to the
3885		configuration version number displayed during SMTP startup.
3886	CONFIG: fix some.newsgroup.usenet@local.host syntax (previously it
3887		would only work when locally addressed.  Fix from
3888		Edvard Tuinder of Cistron Internet Services.
3889	CONFIG: use ${opMode} to avoid error on .REDIRECT addresses if option
3890		"n" (CheckAliases) is set when rebuilding alias database.
3891		Based on code contributed by Claude Marinier.
3892	CONFIG: Allow mailertable to have values of the form
3893		``error:code message''.  The ``code'' is a status code
3894		derived from the sysexits codes -- e.g., NOHOST or UNAVAILABLE.
3895		Contributed by David James <dwj@agw.bt.co.uk>.
3896	CONFIG: add MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(domain list) to extend the list of
3897		sender domains that will be replaced with the masquerade name.
3898		These domains will not be treated as local, but if mail passes
3899		through with sender addresses in those domains they will be
3900		replaced by the masquerade name.  These can also be specified
3901		in a file using MASQUERADE_DOMAIN_FILE(filename).
3902	CONFIG: add FEATURE(masquerade_envelope) to masquerade the envelope
3903		as well as the header.  Substantial improvements to this
3904		code were contributed by Per Hedeland.
3905	CONFIG: add MAILER(phquery) to define a new "ph" mailer; this can be
3906		accessed from a mailertable to do CCSO ph lookups.  Contributed
3907		by Kimmo Suominen.
3908	CONFIG: add MAILER(cyrus) to define a new Cyrus mailer; this can be
3909		used to define cyrus and cyrusbb mailers (for IMAP support).
3910		Contributed by John Gardiner Myers of Carnegie Mellon.
3911	CONFIG: add confUUCP_MAILER to select default mailer to use for
3912		UUCP addressing.  Suggested by Tom Moore of AT&T GIS.

40168.6.13/8.6.12	96/01/25
4017	SECURITY: In some cases it was still possible for an attacker to
4018		insert newlines into a queue file, thus allowing access to
4019		any user (except root).
4020	CONFIG: no changes -- it is not a bug that the configuration
4021		version number is unchanged.
4022
40238.6.12/8.6.12	95/03/28
4024	Fix to IDENT code (it was getting the size of the reply buffer
4025		too small, so nothing was ever accepted).  Fix from several
4026		people, including Allan Johannesen, Shane Castle of the
4027		Boulder County Information Services, and Jeff Smith of
4028		Warwick University (all arrived within a few hours of
4029		each other!).
4030	Fix a problem that could cause large jobs to run out of
4031		file descriptors on systems that use vfork() rather
4032		than fork().
4033
40348.6.11/8.6.11	95/03/08
4035	The ``possible attack'' message would be logged more often
4036		than necessary if you are using Pine as a user agent.
4037	The wrong host would be reported in the ``possible attack''
4038		message when attempted from IDENT.
4039	In some cases the syslog buffer could be overflowed when
4040		reporting the ``possible attack'' message.  This can
4041		cause denial of service attacks.  Truncate the message
4042		to 80 characters to prevent this problem.
4043	When reading the IDENT response a loop is needed around the
4044		read from the network to ensure that you don't get
4045		partial lines.
4046	Password entries without any shell listed (that is, a null
4047		shell) wouldn't match as "ok".  Problem noted by
4048		Rob McMahon.
4049	When running BIND 4.9.x a problem could occur because the
4050		_res.options field is initialized differently than it
4051		was historically -- this requires that sendmail call
4052		res_init before it tweaks any bits.
4053	Fix an incompatibility in openxscript() between the file open mode
4054		and the stdio mode passed to fdopen.  This caused UnixWare
4055		2.0 to have conniptions.  Fix from Martin Sohnius of
4056		Novell Labs Europe.
4057	Fix problem with static linking of local getopt routine when
4058		using GNU's ld command.  Fix from John Kennedy of
4059		Cal State Chico.
4060	It was possible to turn off privacy flags.  Problem noted by
4061		*Hobbit*.
4062	Be more paranoid about writing files.  Suggestions by *Hobbit*
4063		and Liudvikas Bukys.
4064	MAKEMAP: fixes for 64 bit machines (DEC Alphas in particular)
4065		from Spider Boardman.
4066	CONFIG: No changes (version number only, to keep it in sync
4067		with the binaries).
4068
40698.6.10/8.6.10	95/02/10
4070	SECURITY: Diagnose bogus values to some command line flags that
4071		could allow trash to get into headers and qf files.
4072	Validate the name of the user returned by the IDENT protocol.
4073		Some systems that really dislike IDENT send intentionally
4074		bogus information.  Problem pointed out by Michael Bushnell
4075		of the Free Software Foundation.  Has some security
4076		implications.
4077	Fix a problem causing error messages about DNS problems when
4078		the host name contained a percent sign to act oddly
4079		because it was passed as a printf-style format string.
4080		In some cases this could cause core dumps.
4081	Avoid possible buffer overrun in returntosender() if error
4082		message is quite long.  From Fletcher Mattox of the
4083		University of Texas.
4084	Fix a problem that would silently drop "too many hops" error
4085		messages if and only if you were sending to an alias.
4086		From Jon Giltner of the University of Colorado and
4087		Dan Harton of Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
4088	Fix a bug that caused core dumps on some systems if -d11.2 was
4089		set and e->e_message was null.  Fix from Bruce Nagel of
4090		Data General.
4091	Fix problem that can still cause df files to be left around
4092		after "hop count exceeded" messages.  Fix from Andrew
4093		Chang and Shau-Ping Lo of SunSoft.
4094	Fix a problem that can cause buffer overflows on very long
4095		user names (as might occur if you piped to a program
4096		with a lot of arguments).
4097	Avoid returning an error and re-queueing if the host signature
4098		is null; this can occur on addresses like ``user@.''.
4099		Problem noted by Wesley Craig and the University of
4100		Michigan.
4101	Avoid possible calls to malloc(0) if MCI caching is turned
4102		off.  Bug fix from Pierre David of the Laboratoire
4103		Parallelisme, Reseaux, Systemes et Modelisation (PRiSM),
4104		Universite de Versailles - St Quentin, and Jacky
4105		Thibault.
4106	Make a local copy of the line being sent via senttolist() -- in
4107		some cases, buffers could get trashed by map lookups
4108		causing it to do unexpected things.  This also simplifies
4109		some of the map code.
4110	CONFIG: No changes (version number only, to keep it in sync
4111		with the binaries).
4112
41138.6.9/8.6.9	94/04/19
4114	Do all mail delivery completely disconnected from any terminal.
4115		This provides consistency with daemon delivery and
4116		may have some security implications.
4117	Make sure that malloc doesn't get called with zero size,
4118		since that fails on some systems.  Reported by Ed
4119		Hill of the University of Iowa.
4120	Fix multi-line values for $e (SMTP greeting message).  Reported
4121		by Mike O'Connor of Ford Motor Company.
4122	Avoid syserr if no NIS domain name is defined, but the map it
4123		is trying to open is optional.  From Win Bent of USC.
4124	Changes for picky compilers from Ed Gould of Digital Equipment.
4125	Hesiod support for UDB from Todd Miller of the University of
4126		Colorado.  Use "hesiod" as the service name in the U
4127		option.
4128	Fix a problem that failed to set the "authentic" host name (that
4129		is, the one derived from the socket info) if you called
4130		sendmail -bs from inetd.  Based on code contributed by
4131		Todd Miller (this problem was also reported by Guy Helmer
4132		of Dakota State University).  This also fixes a related
4133		problem reported by Liudvikas Bukys of the University of
4134		Rochester.
4135	Parameterize "nroff -h" in all the Makefiles so people with
4136		variant versions can use them easily.  Suggested by
4137		Peter Collinson of Hillside Systems.
4138	SMTP "MAIL" commands with multiple ESMTP parameters required two
4139		spaces between parameters instead of one.  Reported by
4140		Valdis Kletnieks of Virginia Tech.
4141	Reduce the number of system calls during message collection by
4142		using global timeouts around the collect() loop.  This
4143		code was contributed by Eric Wassenaar.
4144	If the initial hostname name gathering results in a name
4145		without a dot (usually caused by NIS misconfiguration)
4146		and BIND is compiled in, directly access DNS to get
4147		the canonical name.  This should make life easier for
4148		Solaris systems.  If it still can't be resolved, and
4149		if the name server is listed as "required", try again
4150		in 30 seconds.  If that also fails, exit immediately to
4151		avoid bogus "config error: mail loops back to myself"
4152		messages.
4153	Improve the "MAIL DELETED BECAUSE OF LACK OF DISK SPACE" error
4154		message to explain how much space was available and
4155		sound a bit less threatening.  Suggested by Stan Janet
4156		of the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
4157	If mail is delivered to an alias that has an owner, deliver any
4158		requested return-receipt immediately, and strip the
4159		Return-Receipt-To: header from the subsequent message.
4160		This prevents a certain class of denial of service
4161		attack, arguably gives more reasonable semantics, and
4162		moves things more towards what will probably become a
4163		network standard.  Suggested by Christopher Davis of
4164		Kapor Enterprises.
4165	Add a "noreceipts" privacy flag to turn off all return receipts
4166		without recompiling.
4167	Avoid printing ESMTP parameters as part of the error message
4168		if there are errors during parsing.  This change is
4169		purely cosmetic.
4170	Avoid sending out error messages during the collect phase of
4171		SMTP; there is an MVS mailer from UCLA that gets
4172		confused by this.  Of course, I think it's their bug....
4173	Check for the $j macro getting undefined, losing a dot, or getting
4174		lost from $=w in the daemon before accepting a connection;
4175		if it is, it dumps state, prints a LOG_ALERT message,
4176		and drops core for debugging.  This is an attempt to
4177		track down a bug that I thought was long since gone.
4178		If you see this, please forward the log fragment to
4179		sendmail@sendmail.ORG.
4180	Change OLD_NEWDB from a #ifdef to a #if so it can be turned off
4181		with -DOLD_NEWDB=0 on the command line.  From Christophe
4182		Wolfhugel.
4183	Instead of trying to truncate the listen queue for the server
4184		SMTP port when the load average is too high, just close
4185		the port completely and reopen it later as needed.
4186		This ensures that the other end gets a quick "connection
4187		refused" response, and that the connection can be
4188		recovered later.  In particular, some socket emulations
4189		seem to get confused if you tweak the listen queue
4190		size around and can never start listening to connections
4191		again.  The down side is that someone could start up
4192		another daemon process in the interim, so you could
4193		have multiple daemons all not listening to connections;
4194		this could in turn cause the sendmail.pid file to be
4195		incorrect.  A better approach might be to accept the
4196		connection and give a 421 code, but that could break
4197		other mailers in mysterious ways and have paging behavior
4198		implications.
4199	Fix a glitch in TCP-level debugging that caused flag 16.101 to
4200		set debugging on the wrong socket.  From Eric Wassenaar.
4201	When creating a df* temporary file, be sure you truncate any
4202		existing data in the file -- otherwise system crashes
4203		and the like could result in extra data being sent.
4204	DOC: Replace the CHANGES-R5-R8 readme file with a paper in the
4205		doc directory.  This includes some additional
4206		information.
4207	CONFIG: change UUCP rules to never add $U! or $k! on the front
4208		of recipient envelope addresses.  This should have been
4209		handled by the $&h trick, but broke if people were
4210		mixing domainized and UUCP addresses.  They should
4211		probably have converted all the way over to uucp-uudom
4212		instead of uucp-{new,old}, but the failure mode was to
4213		loop the mail, which was bad news.
4214	Portability fixes:
4215		Newer BSDI systems (several people).
4216		Older BSDI systems from Christophe Wolfhugel.
4217		Intergraph CLIX, from Paul Southworth of CICNet.
4218		UnixWare, from Evan Champion.
4219		NetBSD from Adam Glass.
4220		Solaris from Quentin Campbell of the University of
4221			Newcastle upon Tyne.
4222		IRIX from Dean Cookson and Bill Driscoll of Mitre
4223			Corporation.
4224		NCR 3000 from Kevin Darcy of Chrysler Financial Corporation.
4225		SunOS (it has setsid() and setvbuf() calls) from
4226			Jonathan Kamens of OpenVision Technologies.
4227		HP-UX from Tor Lillqvist.
4228	New Files:
4229		src/Makefile.CLIX
4230		src/Makefile.NCR3000
4231		doc/changes/Makefile
4232		doc/changes/changes.me
4233		doc/changes/changes.ps
4234
42358.6.8/8.6.6	94/03/21
4236	SECURITY: it was possible to read any file as root using the
4237		E (error message) option.  Reported by Richard Jones;
4238		fixed by Michael Corrigan and Christophe Wolfhugel.
4239
42408.6.7/8.6.6	94/03/14
4241	SECURITY: it was possible to get root access by using weird
4242		values to the -d flag.  Thanks to Alain Durand of
4243		INRIA for forwarding me the notice from the bugtraq
4244		list.
4245
42468.6.6/8.6.6	94/03/13
4247	SECURITY: the ability to give files away on System V-based
4248		systems proved dangerous -- don't run as the owner
4249		of a :include: file on a system that allows giveaways.
4250		Unfortunately, this also applies to determining a
4251		valid shell.
4252	IMPORTANT: Previous versions weren't expiring old connections
4253		in the connection cache for a long time under some
4254		circumstances.  This could result in resource exhaustion,
4255		both at your end and at the other end.  This checks the
4256		connections for timeouts much more frequently.  From
4257		Doug Anderson of NCSC.
4258	Fix a glitch that snuck in that caused programs to be run as
4259		the sender instead of the recipient if the mail was
4260		from a local user to another local user.  From
4261		Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
4262	Fix "wildcard" on /etc/shells matching -- instead of looking
4263		for "*", look for "/SENDMAIL/ANY/SHELL/".  From
4264		Bryan Costales of ICSI.
4265	Change the method used to declare the "statfs" availability;
4266		instead of HASSTATFS and/or HASUSTAT with a ton of
4267		tweaking in conf.c, there is a single #define called
4268		SFS_TYPE which takes on one of six values (SFS_NONE
4269		for no statfs availability, SFS_USTAT for the ustat(2)
4270		syscall, SFS_4ARGS for a four argument statfs(2) call,
4271		and SFS_VFS, SFS_MOUNT, or SFS_STATFS for a two argument
4272		statfs(2) call with the declarations in <sys/vfs.h>,
4273		<sys/mount.h>, or <sys/statfs.h> respectively).
4274	Fix glitch in NetInfo support that could return garbage if
4275		there was no "/locations/sendmail" property.  From
4276		David Meyer of the University of Virginia.
4277	Change HASFLOCK from defined/not-defined to a 0/1 definition
4278		to allow Linux to turn it off even though it is a
4279		BSD-like system.
4280	Allow setting of "ident" timeout to zero to turn off the ident
4281		protocol entirely.
4282	Make 7-bit stripping local to a connection (instead of to a
4283		mailer); this allows you to specify that SMTP is a
4284		7-bit channel, but revert to 8-bit should it advertise
4285		that it supports 8BITMIME.  You still have to specify
4286		mailer flag 7 to get this stripping at all.
4287	Improve makesendmail script so it handles more cases automatically.
4288	Tighten up restrictions on taking ownership of :include: files
4289		to avoid problems on systems that allow you to give away
4290		files.
4291	Fix a problem that made it impossible to rebuild the alias
4292		file if it was on a read-only file system.  From
4293		Harry Edmon of the University of Washington.
4294	Improve MX randomization function.  From John Gardiner Myers
4295		of CMU.
4296	Fix a minor glitch causing a bogus message to be printed (used
4297		%s instead of %d in a printf string for the line number)
4298		when a bad queue file was read.  From Harry Edmon.
4299	Allow $s to remain NULL on locally generated mail.  I'm not
4300		sure this is necessary, but a lot of people have complained
4301		about it, and there is a legitimate question as to whether
4302		"localhost" is legal as an 822-style domain.
4303	Fix a problem with very short line lengths (mailer L= flag) in
4304		headers.  This causes a leading space to be added onto
4305		continuation lines (including in the body!), and also
4306		tries to wrap headers containing addresses (From:, To:,
4307		etc) intelligently at the shorter line lengths.  Problem
4308		Reported by Lars-Johan Liman of SUNET Operations Center.
4309	Log the real user name when logging syserrs, since these can have
4310		security implications.  Suggested by several people.
4311	Fix address logging of cached connections -- it used to always
4312		log the numeric address as zero.  This is a somewhat
4313		bogus implementation in that it does an extra system
4314		call, but it should be an inexpensive one.  Fix from
4315		Motonori Nakamura.
4316	Tighten up handling of short syslog buffers even more -- there
4317		were cases where the outgoing relay= name was too long
4318		to share a line with delay= and mailer= logging.
4319	Limit the overhead on split envelopes to one open file descriptor
4320		per envelope -- previously the overhead was three
4321		descriptors.  This was in response to a problem reported
4322		by P{r (Pell) Emanuelsson.
4323	Fixes to better handle the case of unexpected connection closes;
4324		this redirects the output to the transcript so the info
4325		is not lost.  From Eric Wassenaar.
4326	Fix potential string overrun if you macro evaluate a string that
4327		has a naked $ at the end.  Problem noted by James Matheson
4328		<jmrm@eng.cam.ac.uk>.
4329	Make default error number on $#error messages 553 (``Requested
4330		action not taken: mailbox name not allowed'') instead of
4331		501 (``Syntax error in parameters or arguments'') to
4332		avoid bogus "protocol error" messages.
4333	Strip off any existing trailing dot on names during $[ ... $]
4334		lookup.  This prevents it from ending up with two dots
4335		on the end of dot terminated names.  From Wesley Craig
4336		of the University of Michigan and Bryan Costales of ICSI.
4337	Clean up file class reading so that the debugging information is
4338		more informative.  It hadn't been using setclass, so you
4339		didn't see the class items being added.
4340	Avoid core dump if you are running a version of sendmail where
4341		NIS is compiled in, and you specify an NIS map, but
4342		NIS is not running.  Fix from John Oleynick of
4343		Rutgers.
4344	Diagnose bizarre case where res_search returns a failure value,
4345		but sets h_errno to a success value.
4346	Make sure that "too many hops" messages are considered important
4347		enough to send an error to the Postmaster (that is, the
4348		address specified in the P option).  This fix should
4349		help problems that cause the df file to be left around
4350		sometimes -- unfortunately, I can't seem to reproduce
4351		the problem myself.
4352	Avoid core dump (null pointer reference) on EXPN command; this
4353		only occurred if your log level was set to 10 or higher
4354		and the target account was an alias or had a .forward file.
4355		Problem noted by Janne Himanka.
4356	Avoid "denial of service" attacks by someone who is flooding your
4357		SMTP port with bad commands by shutting the connection
4358		after 25 bad commands are issued.  From Kyle Jones of
4359		UUNET.
4360	Fix core dump on error messages with very long "to" buffers;
4361		fmtmsg overflows the message buffer.  Fixed by trimming
4362		the to address to 203 characters.  Problem reported by
4363		John Oleynick.
4364	Fix configuration for HASFLOCK -- there were some spots where
4365		a #ifndef was incorrectly #ifdef.  Pointed out by
4366		George Baltz of the University of Maryland.
4367	Fix a typo in savemail() that could cause the error message To:
4368		lists to be incorrect in some places.  From Motonori
4369		Nakamura.
4370	Fix a glitch that can cause duplicate error messages on split
4371		envelopes where an address on one of the lists has a
4372		name server failure.  Fix from Voradesh Yenbut of the
4373		University of Washington.
4374	Fix possible bogus pointer reference on ESMTP parameters that
4375		don't have an ``=value'' part.
4376	CNAME loops caused an error message to be generated, but also
4377		re-queued the message.  Changed to just re-queue the
4378		message (it's really hard to just bounce it because
4379		of the weird way the name server works in the presence
4380		of CNAME loops).  Problem noted by James M.R.Matheson
4381		of Cambridge University.
4382	Avoid giving ``warning: foo owned process doing -bs'' messages
4383		if they use ``MAIL FROM:<foo>'' where foo is their true
4384		user name.  Suggested by Andreas Stolcke of ICSI.
4385	Change the NAMED_BIND compile flag to be a 0/1 flag so you can
4386		override it easily in the Makefile -- that is, you can
4387		turn it off using -DNAMED_BIND=0.
4388	If a gethostbyname(...) of an address with a trailing dot fails,
4389		try it without the trailing dot.  This is because if
4390		you have a version of gethostbyname() that falls back
4391		to NIS or the /etc/hosts file it will fail to find
4392		perfectly reasonable names that just don't happen to
4393		be dot terminated in the hosts file.  You don't want to
4394		strip the dot first though because we're trying to ensure
4395		that country names that match one of your subdomains get
4396		a chance.
4397	PRALIASES: fix bogus output on non-null-terminated strings.
4398		From Bill Gianopoulos of Raytheon.
4399	CONFIG: Avoid rewriting anything that matches $w to be $j.
4400		This was in code intended to only catch the self-literal
4401		address (that is, [1.2.3.4], where 1.2.3.4 is your
4402		IP address), but the code was broken.  However, it will
4403		still do this if $M is defined; this is necessary to
4404		get client configurations to work (sigh).  Note that this
4405		means that $M overrides :mailname entries in the user
4406		database!  Problem noted by Paul Southworth.
4407	CONFIG: Fix definition of Solaris help file location.  From
4408		Steve Cliffe <steve@gorgon.cs.uow.edu.au>.
4409	CONFIG: Fix bug that broke news.group.USENET mappings.
4410	CONFIG: Allow declaration of SMTP_MAILER_MAX, FAX_MAILER_MAX,
4411		and USENET_MAILER_MAX to tweak the maximum message
4412		size for various mailers.
4413	CONFIG: Change definition of USENET_MAILER_ARGS to include argv[0]
4414		instead of assuming that it is "inews" for consistency
4415		with other mailers.  From Michael Corrigan of UC San Diego.
4416	CONFIG: When mail is forwarded to a LOCAL_RELAY or a MAIL_HUB,
4417		qualify the address in the SMTP envelope as user@{relay|hub}
4418		instead of user@$j.  From Bill Wisner of The Well.
4419	CONFIG: Fix route-addr syntax in nullrelay configuration set.
4420	CONFIG: Don't turn off case mapping of user names in the local
4421		mailer for IRIX.  This was different than most every other
4422		system.
4423	CONFIG: Avoid infinite loops on certainly list:; syntaxes in
4424		envelope.  Noted by Thierry Besancon
4425		<besancon@excalibur.ens.fr>.
4426	CONFIG: Don't include -z by default on uux line -- most systems
4427		don't want it set by default.  Pointed out by Philippe
4428		Michel of Thomson CSF.
4429	CONFIG: Fix some bugs with mailertables -- for example, if your
4430		host name was foo.bar.ray.com and you matched against
4431		".ray.com", the old implementation bound %1 to "bar"
4432		instead of "foo.bar".  Also, allow "." in the mailertable
4433		to match anything -- essentially, take over SMART_HOST.
4434		This also moves matching of explicit local host names
4435		before the mailertable so they don't have to be special
4436		cased in the mailertable data.  Reported by Bill
4437		Gianopoulos of Raytheon; the fix for the %1 binding
4438		problem was contributed by Nicholas Comanos of the
4439		University of Sydney.
4440	CONFIG: Don't include "root" in class $=L (users to deliver
4441		locally, even if a hub or relay exists) by default.
4442		This is because of the known bug where definition of
4443		both a LOCAL_RELAY and a MAIL_HUB causes $=L to ignore
4444		both and deliver into the local mailbox.
4445	CONFIG: Move up bitdomain and uudomain handling so that they
4446		are done before .UUCP class matching; uudomain was
4447		reported as ineffective before.  This also frees up
4448		diversion 8 for future use.  Problem reported by Kimmo
4449		Suominen.
4450	CONFIG: Don't try to convert dotted IP address (e.g., [1.2.3.4])
4451		into host names.  As pointed out by Jonathan Kamens,
4452		these are often used because either the forward or reverse
4453		mapping is broken; this translation makes it broken again.
4454	DOC: Clarify $@ and $: in the Install & Op Guide.  From Kimmo
4455		Suominen.
4456	Portability fixes:
4457		Unicos from David L. Kensiski of Sterling Software.
4458		DomainOS from Don Lewis of Silicon Systems.
4459		GNU m4 1.0.3 from Karst Koymans of Utrecht University.
4460		Convex from Kimmo Suominen <kim@tac.nyc.ny.us>.
4461		NetBSD from Adam Glass <glass@sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu>.
4462		BSD/386 from Tony Sanders of BSDI.
4463		Apollo from Eric Wassenaar.
4464		DGUX from Doug Anderson.

44788.6.5/8.6.5	94/01/13
4479	Security fix:  /.forward could be owned by anyone (the test
4480		to allow root to own any file was backwards).  From
4481		Bob Campbell at U.C. Berkeley.
4482	Security fix: group ids were not completely set when programs
4483		were invoked.  This caused programs to have group
4484		permissions they should not have had (usually group
4485		daemon instead of their own group).  In particular,
4486		Perl scripts would refuse to run.
4487	Security: check to make sure files that are written are not
4488		symbolic links (at least under some circumstances).
4489		Although this does not respond to a specific known
4490		attack, it's just a good idea.  Suggested by
4491		Christian Wettergren.
4492	Security fix: if a user had an NFS mounted home directory on
4493		a system with a restricted shell listed in their
4494		/etc/passwd entry, they could still execute any
4495		program by putting that in their .forward file.
4496		This fix prevents that by insisting that their shell
4497		appear in /etc/shells before allowing a .forward to
4498		execute a program or write a file.  You can disable
4499		this by putting "*" in /etc/shells.  It also won't
4500		permit world-writable :include: files to reference
4501		programs or files (there's no way to disable this).
4502		These behaviors are only one level deep -- for
4503		example, it is legal for a world-writable :include:
4504		file to reference an alias that writes a file, on
4505		the assumption that the alias file is well controlled.
4506	Security fix: root was not treated suspiciously enough when
4507		looking into subdirectories.  This would potentially
4508		allow a cracker to examine files that were publicly
4509		readable but in a non-publicly searchable directory.
4510	Fix a problem that causes an error on QUIT on a cached
4511		connection to create problems on the current job.
4512		These are typically unrelated, so errors occur in
4513		the wrong place.
4514	Reset CurrentLA in sendall() -- this makes sendmail queue
4515		runs more responsive to load average, and fixes a
4516		problem that ignored the load average in locally
4517		generated mail.  From Eric Wassenaar.
4518	Fix possible core dump on aliases with null LHS.  From
4519		John Orthoefer of BB&N.
4520	Revert to using flock() whenever possible -- there are just
4521		too many bugs in fcntl() locking, particularly over
4522		NFS, that cause sendmail to fail in perverse ways.
4523	Fix a bug that causes the connection cache to get confused
4524		when sending error messages.  This resulted in
4525		"unexpected close" messages.  It should fix itself
4526		on the following queue run.  Problem noted by
4527		Liudvikas Bukys of the University of Rochester.
4528	Include $k in $=k as documented in the Install & Op Guide.
4529		This seems odd, but it was documented....  From
4530		Michael Corrigan of UCSD.
4531	Fix problem that caused :include:s from alias files to be
4532		forced to be owned by root instead of daemon
4533		(actually DefUid).  From Tim Irvin.
4534	Diagnose unrecognized I option values -- from Mortin Forssen
4535		of the Chalmers University of Technology.
4536	Make "error" mailer work consistently when there is no error
4537		code associated with it -- previously it returned OK
4538		even though there was a real problem.  Now it assumes
4539		EX_UNAVAILABLE.
4540	Fix bug that caused the last header line of messages that had
4541		no body and which were terminated with EOF instead of
4542		"." to be discarded.  Problem noted by Liudvikas Bukys.
4543	Fix core dump on SMTP mail to programs that failed -- it tried
4544		to go to a "next MX host" when none existed, causing
4545		a core dump.  From der Mouse at McGill University.
4546	Change IDENTPROTO from a defined/not defined to a 0/1 switch;
4547		this makes it easier to turn it off (using
4548		-DIDENTPROTO=0 in the Makefile).  From der Mouse.
4549	Fix YP_MASTER_NAME store to use the unupdated result of
4550		gethostname() (instead of myhostname(), which tries
4551		to fully qualify the name) to be consistent with
4552		SunOS.  If your hostname is unqualified, this fixes
4553		transfers to slave servers.  Bug noted by Keith
4554		McMillan of Ameritech Services, Inc.
4555	Fix Ultrix problem: gethostbyname() can return a very large
4556		(> 500) h_length field, which causes the sockaddr
4557		to be trashed.  Use the size of the sockaddr instead.
4558		Fix from Bob Manson of Ohio State.
4559	Don't assume "-a." on host lookups if NAMED_BIND is not
4560		defined -- this confuses gethostbyname on hosts
4561		file lookups, which doesn't understand the trailing
4562		dot convention.
4563	Log SMTP server subprocesses that die with a signal instead
4564		of from a clean exit.
4565	If you don't have option "I" set, don't assume that a DNS
4566		"host unknown" message is authoritative -- it
4567		might still be found in /etc/hosts.
4568	Fix a problem that would cause Deferred: messages to be sent
4569		as the subject of an error message, even though the
4570		actual cause of a message was more severe than that.
4571		Problem noted by Chris Seabrook of OSSI.
4572	Fix race condition in DBM alias file locking.  From Kyle
4573		Jones of UUNET.
4574	Limit delivery syslog line length to avoid bugs in some
4575		versions of syslog(3).  This adds a new compile time
4576		variable SYSLOG_BUFSIZE.  From Jay Plett of Princeton
4577		University, which is in turn derived from IDA.
4578	Fix quotes inside of comments in addresses -- previously
4579		it insisted that they be balanced, but the 822 spec
4580		says that they should be ignored.
4581	Dump open file state to syslog upon receiving SIGUSR1 (for
4582		debugging).  This also evaluates ruleset 89, if set
4583		(with the null input), and logs the result.  This
4584		should be used sparingly, since the rewrite process
4585		is not reentrant.
4586	Change -qI, -qR, and -qS flags to be case-insensitive as
4587		documented in the Bat Book.
4588	If the mailer returned EX_IOERR or EX_OSERR, sendmail did not
4589		return an error message and did not requeue the message.
4590		Fix based on code from Roland Dirlewanger of
4591		Reseau Regional Aquarel, Bordeaux, France.
4592	Fix a problem that caused a seg fault if you got a 421 error
4593		code during some parts of connection initialization.
4594		I've only seen this when talking to buggy mailers on
4595		the other end, but it shouldn't give a seg fault in
4596		any case.  From Amir Plivatsky.
4597	Fix core dump caused by a ruleset call that returns null.
4598		Fix from Bryan Costales of ICSI.
4599	Full-Name: field was being ignored.  Fix from Motonori Nakamura
4600		of Kyoto University.
4601	Fix a possible problem with very long input lines in setproctitle.
4602		From P{r Emanuelsson.
4603	Avoid putting "This is a warning message" out on return receipts.
4604		Suggested by Douglas Anderson.
4605	Detect loops caused by recursive ruleset calls.  Suggested by
4606		Bryan Costales.
4607	Initialize non-alias maps during alias rebuilds -- they may be
4608		needed for parsing.  Problem noted by Douglas Anderson.
4609	Log sender address even if no message was collected in SMTP
4610		(e.g., if all RCPTs failed).  Suggested by Motonori
4611		Nakamura.
4612	Don't reflect the owner-list contents into the envelope sender
4613		address if the value contains ", :, /, or | (to avoid
4614		illegal addresses appearing there).
4615	Efficiency hack for toktype macro -- from Craig Partridge of
4616		BB&N.
4617	Clean up DNS error printing so that a host name is always
4618		included.
4619	Remember to set $i during queue runs.  Reported by Stephen
4620		Campbell of Dartmouth University.
4621	If the environment variable HOSTALIASES is set, use it during
4622		canonification as the name of a file with per-user host
4623		translations so that headers are properly mapped.  Reported
4624		by Anne Bennett of Concordia University.
4625	Avoid printing misleading error message if SMTP mailer (not
4626		using [IPC]) should die on a core dump.
4627	Avoid incorrect diagnosis of "file 1 closed" when it is caused
4628		by the other end closing the connection.  From
4629		Dave Morrison of Oracle.
4630	Improve several of the error messages printed by "mailq"
4631		to include a host name or other useful information.
4632	Add NetInfo preliminary support for NeXT systems.  From Vince
4633		DeMarco.
4634	Fix a glitch that sometimes caused :include:s that pointed to
4635		NFS filesystems that were down to give an "aliasing/
4636		forwarding loop broken" message instead of queueing
4637		the message for retry.  Noted by William C Fenner of
4638		the NRL Connection Machine Facility.
4639	Fix a problem that could cause a core dump if the input sequence
4640		had (or somehow acquired) a \231 character.
4641	Make sure that route-addrs always have <angle brackets> around
4642		them in non-SMTP envelopes (SMTP envelopes already do
4643		this properly).
4644	Avoid weird headers on unbalanced punctuation of the form:
4645		``Joe User <user)'' -- this caused reference to the
4646		null macro.  Fix from Rick McCarty of IO.COM.
4647	Fix a problem that caused an alias "user: user@local.host" to
4648		not have the QNOTREMOTE bit set; this caused configs
4649		to act as if FEATURE(notsticky) was defined even when
4650		it was not.  The effect of the problem was to make it
4651		very hard to to set up satellite sites that had a few
4652		local accounts, with everything else forwarded to a
4653		corporate hub.  Reported by Detlef Drewanz of the
4654		University of Rostock and Mark Frost of NCD.
4655	Change queuing to not call rulesets 3, {1 or 2}, 4 on header
4656		addresses.  This is more efficient (fewer name server
4657		calls) and fixes certain unusual configurations, such
4658		as those that have ruleset 4 do something that is
4659		non-idempotent unless a mailer-specific ruleset did
4660		something else.  Problem reported by Brian J. Coan
4661		of the Institute for Global Communications.
4662	Fix the "obsolete argument" routine in main to better understand
4663		new arguments.  For example, if you used ``sendmail
4664		-C config -v -q'' it would choke on the -q because
4665		the -C would stop looking for old-format arguments.
4666	Fix the code that was intended to allow two users to forward their
4667		mail to the same program and have them appear unique.
4668	Portability fixes for:
4669		SCO UNIX from Murray Kucherawy.
4670		SCO Open Server 3.2v4 from Philippe Brand.
4671		System V Release 4 from Rick Ellis and others.
4672		OSF/1 from Steve Campbell.
4673		DG/UX from Ben Mesander of the USGS and Bryan Curnutt
4674			of Stoner Associates.
4675		Motorola SysV88 from Kevin Johnson of Motorola.
4676		Solaris 2.3 from Casper H.S. Dik of the University
4677			of Amsterdam and John Caruso of University
4678			of Maryland.
4679		FreeBSD from Ollivier Robert.
4680		NetBSD from Adam Glass.
4681		TitanOS from Kate Hedstrom of Rutgers University.
4682		Irix from Bryan Curnutt.
4683		Dynix from Jim Davis of the University of Arizona.
4684		RISC/os.
4685		Linux from John Kennedy of California State University
4686			at Chico.
4687		Solaris 2.x from Tony Boner of the U.S. Air Force.
4688		NEXTSTEP 3.x from Vince DeMarco.
4689		HP-UX from various people.  NOTA BENE:  the location
4690			of the config file has moved to /usr/lib
4691			to match the HP-UX version of sendmail.
4692	CONFIG: Don't do any recipient rewriting on relay mailer;
4693		since this is intended only for internal use, the
4694		usual RFC 821/822/1123 rules can be relaxed.  The
4695		main point of this is to avoid munging (ugh) UUCP
4696		addresses when relaying internally.
4697	CONFIG: fix typo in mailer/uucp.m4 that mutilates list:;
4698		syntax addresses delivered via UUCP.  Solution
4699		provided by Peter Wemm.
4700	CONFIG: fix thumb-fumble in default UUCP relaying in ruleset
4701		zero; it caused double @ signs in addresses.  From
4702		Irving Reid of the University of Toronto.
4703	CONFIG: Portability fixes for SCO Unix 3.2 with TCP/IP 1.2.1
4704		from Markku Toijala of ICL Personal Systems Oy.
4705	CONFIG: Add trailing "." on pseudo-domains for consistency;
4706		this fixes a problem (noted by Al Whaley of Sunnyside)
4707		that made it hard to recognize your own pseudodomain
4708		names.
4709	CONFIG: catch "@host" syntax errors (i.e., null local-parts)
4710		rather than letting them get "local configuration
4711		error"s.  Problem noted by John Gardiner Myers.
4712	CONFIG: add uucp-uudom mailer variant, based on code posted
4713		by Spider Boardman <spider@Orb.Nashua.NH.US>; this
4714		has uucp-dom semantics but old UUCP syntax.  This
4715		also permits "uucp-old" as an alias for "uucp" and
4716		"uucp-new" as a synonym for "suucp" for consistency.
4717	CONFIG: add POP mailer support (from Kimmo Suominen
4718		<kim@grendel.lut.fi>).
4719	CONFIG: drop CSNET_RELAY support -- CSNET is long gone.
4720	CONFIG: fix bug caused with domain literal addresses (e.g.,
4721		``[128.32.131.12]'') when FEATURE(allmasquerade)
4722		was set; it would get an additional @masquerade.host
4723		added to the address.  Problem noted by Peter Wan
4724		of Georgia Tech.
4725	CONFIG: make sure that the local UUCP name is in $=w.  From
4726		Jim Murray of Stratus.
4727	CONFIG: changes to UUCP rewriting to simulate IDA-style "V"
4728		mailer flag.  Briefly, if you are sending to host
4729		"foo", then it rewrites "foo!...!baz" to "...!baz",
4730		"foo!baz" remains "foo!baz", and anything else has
4731		the local name prepended.
4732	CONFIG: portability fixes for HP-UX.
4733	DOC: several minor problems fixed in the Install & Op Guide.
4734	MAKEMAP: fix core dump problem on lines that are too long or
4735		which lack newline.  From Mark Delany.
4736	MAILSTATS: print sums of columns (total messages & kbytes
4737		in and out of the system).  From Tom Ferrin of UC
4738		San Francisco Computer Graphics Lab.
4739	SIGNIFICANT USER- OR SYSAD-VISIBLE CHANGES:
4740		On HP-UX, /etc/sendmail.cf has been moved to
4741			/usr/lib/sendmail.cf to match HP sendmail.
4742		Permissions have been tightened up on world-writable
4743			:include: files and accounts that have shells
4744			that are not listed in /etc/shells.  This may
4745			cause some .forward files that have worked
4746			before to start failing.
4747		SIGUSR1 dumps some state to the log.

47668.6.4/8.6.4	93/10/31
4767	Repair core-dump problem (write to read-only memory segment)
4768		if you fall back to the return-to-Postmaster case in
4769		savemail.  Problem reported by Richard Liu.
4770	Immediately diagnose bogus sender addresses in SMTP.  This
4771		makes quite certain that crackers can't use this
4772		class of attack.
4773	Reliability Fix:  check return value from fclose() and fsync()
4774		in a few critical places.
4775	Minor problem in initsys() that reversed a condition for
4776		redirecting the output channel on queue runs.  It's
4777		not clear this code even does anything.  From Eric
4778		Wassenaar of the Dutch National Institute for Nuclear
4779		and High-Energy Physics.
4780	Fix some problems that caused queue runs to do "too much work",
4781		such as double-reading the Errors-To: header.  From
4782		Eric Wassenaar.
4783	Error messages on writing the temporary file (including the
4784		data file) were getting suppressed in SMTP -- this
4785		fix causes them to be properly reported.  From Eric
4786		Wassenaar.
4787	Some changes to support AF_UNIX sockets -- this will only
4788		really become relevant in the next release, but some
4789		people need it for local patches.  From Michael
4790		Corrigan of UC San Diego.
4791	Use dynamically allocated memory (instead of static buffers)
4792		for macros defined in initsys() and settime(); since
4793		these can have different values depending on which
4794		envelope they are in.  From Eric Wassenaar.
4795	Improve logging to show ctladdr on to= logging; this tells you
4796		what uid/gid processes ran as.
4797	Fix a problem that caused error messages to be discarded if
4798		the sender address was unparseable for some reason;
4799		this was supposed to fall back to the "return to
4800		postmaster" case.
4801	Improve aliaswait backoff algorithm.
4802	Portability patches for Linux (8.6.3 required another header
4803		file) (from Karl London) and SCO UNIX.
4804	CONFIG: patch prog mailer to not strip host name off of envelope
4805		addresses (so that it matches local again).  From
4806		Christopher Davis.
4807	CONFIG: change uucp-dom mailer so that "<>" translates to $n;
4808		this prevents uux from seeing lines with null names like
4809		``From   Sat Oct 30 14:55:31 1993''.  From Motonori
4810		Nakamura of Kyoto University.
4811	CONFIG: handle <list:;> syntax correctly.  This isn't legal, but
4812		it shouldn't fail miserably.  From Motonori Nakamura.
4813
48148.6.2/8.6.2	93/10/15
4815	Put a "successful delivery" message in the transcript for
4816		addresses that get return-receipts.
4817	Put a prominent "this is only a warning" message in warning
4818		messages -- some people don't read carefully enough
4819		and end up sending the message several times.
4820	Include reason for temporary failure in the "warning" return
4821		message.  Currently, it just says "cannot send for
4822		four hours".
4823	Fix the "Original message received" time generated for
4824		returntosender messages.  It was previously listed as
4825		the current time.  Bug reported by Eric Hagberg of
4826		Cornell University Medical College.
4827	If there is an error when writing the body of a message,
4828		don't send the trailing dot and wait for a response
4829		in sender SMTP, as this could cause the connection to
4830		hang up under some bizarre circumstances.  From Eric
4831		Wassenaar.
4832	Fix some server SMTP synchronization problems caused when
4833		connections fail during message collection.  From
4834		Eric Wassenaar.
4835	Fix a problem that can cause srvrsmtp to reject mail if the
4836		name server is down -- it accepts the RCPT but rejects
4837		the DATA command.  Problem reported by Jim Murray of
4838		Stratus.
4839	Fix a problem that can cause core dumps if the config file
4840		incorrectly resolves to a null hostname.  Reported by
4841		Allan Johannesen of WPI.
4842	Non-root use of -C flag, dangerous -f flags, and use of -oQ
4843		by non-root users were not put into
4844		X-Authentication-Warning:s as intended because the
4845		config file hadn't set the PrivacyOptions yet.  Fix
4846		from Sven-Ove Westberg of the University of Lulea.
4847	Under very odd circumstances, the alias file rebuild code
4848		could get confused as to whether a database was
4849		open or not.
4850	Check "vendor code" on the end of V lines -- this is
4851		intended to provide a hook for vendor-specific
4852		configuration syntax.  (This is a "new feature",
4853		but I've made an exception to my rule in a belief
4854		that this is a highly exceptional case.)
4855	Portability fixes for DG/UX (from Douglas Anderson of NCSC),
4856		SCO Unix (from Murray Kucherawy), A/UX, and OSF/1
4857		(from Jon Forrest of UC Berkeley)
4858	CONFIG: fix ``mailer:host'' form of UUCP relay naming.
4859
48608.6.1/8.6	93/10/08
4861	Portability fixes for A/UX and Encore UMAX V.
4862	Fix error message handling -- if you had a name server down
4863		causing an error during parsing, that message was never
4864		propagated to the queue file.
4865
48668.6/8.6		93/10/05
4867	Configuration cleanup: make it easier to undo IDENTPROTO in
4868		conf.h (other systems have the same bug).
4869	If HASGETDTABLESIZE and _SC_OPEN_MAX are both defined, assume
4870		getdtablesize() instead of sysconf(); a disturbingly
4871		large number of systems defined _SC_OPEN_MAX in the
4872		header files but don't have the syscall.
4873	Another patch to really truly ignore MX records in getcanonname
4874		if trymx == FALSE.
4875	Fix problem that caused the "250 IAA25499 Message accepted for
4876		delivery" message to be omitted if there was an error
4877		in the header of the message (e.g., a bad Errors-To:
4878		line).  Pointed out by Michael Corrigan of UCSD.
4879	Announce name of host we are chatting when we get errors; this
4880		is an IDA-ism suggested by Christophe Wolfhugel.
4881	Portability fixes for Alpha OSF/1 (from Anthony Baxter of the
4882		Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute), SCO Unix
4883		(from Murray Kucherawy of Hookup Communication Corp.),
4884		NeXT (from Vince DeMarco and myself), Linux (from
4885		Karl London <karl@borg.demon.co.uk>), BSDI (from
4886		Christophe Wolfhugel, and SVR4 on Dell (from Kimmo
4887		Suominen), AUX 3.0 on Macintosh, and ANSI C compilers.
4888	Some changes to get around gcc optimizer bugs.  From Takahiro
4889		Kanbe.
4890	Fix error recovery in queueup if another tf file of the same
4891		name already exists.  Problem stumbled over by Bill
4892		Wisner of The Well.
4893	Output YP_MASTER_NAME and YP_LAST_MODIFIED without null bytes.
4894		Problem noted by Keith McMillan of Ameritech Services.
4895	Deal with group permissions properly when opening .forward and
4896		:include: files.  This relaxes the 8.1C restrictions
4897		slightly more.  This includes proper setting of groups
4898		when reading :include: files, allowing you to read some
4899		files that you should be able to read but have previously
4900		been denied unless you owned them or they had "other"
4901		read permission.
4902	Make certain that $j is in $=w (after the .cf is read) so that
4903		if the user is forced to override some silly system,
4904		MX suppression will still work.
4905	Fix a couple of efficiency problems where newstr was double-
4906		calling expensive routines.  In at least one case, it
4907		wasn't guaranteed that they would always return the
4908		same result.  Problem noted by Christophe Wolfhugel.
4909	Fix null pointer dereference in putoutmsg -- only on an error
4910		condition from a non-SMTP mailer.  From Motonori
4911		Nakamura.
4912	Macro expand "C" line class definitions before scanning so that
4913		"CX $Z" works.
4914	Fix problem that caused error message to be sent while still
4915		trying to send the original message if the connection
4916		is closed during a DATA command after getting an error
4917		on an RCPT command (pretty obscure).  Problem reported
4918		by John Myers of CMU.
4919	Fix reply to NOOP to be 250 instead of 200 -- this is a long
4920		term bug.
4921	Fix a nasty bug causing core dumps when returning the "warning:
4922		cannot deliver for N hours -- will keep trying" message;
4923		it only occurred if you had PostmasterCopy set and
4924		only on some architectures.  Although sendmail would
4925		keep trying, it would send error messages on each
4926		queue interval.  This is an important fix.
4927	Allow u and g options to take user and group names respectively.
4928	Don't do a chdir into the queue directory in -bt mode to make
4929		ruleset testing a bit easier.
4930	Don't allow users to turn off logging (using -oL) on the command
4931		line -- command line can only raise, not lower, logging
4932		level.
4933	Set $u to the original recipient on the SMTP transaction or on
4934		the command line.  This is only done if there is exactly
4935		one recipient.  Technically, this does not meet the
4936		specs, because it does not guarantee a domain on the
4937		address.
4938	Fix a problem that dumped error messages on bad addresses if
4939		you used the -t flag.  Problem noted by Josh Smith of
4940		Harvey Mudd College.
4941	Given an address such as ``<foo> <bar>'', auto-quote the first
4942		``<foo>'' part, giving ``"<foo>" <bar>''.  This is to
4943		avoid the problem of people who use angle brackets in
4944		their full name information.
4945	Fix a null pointer dereference if you set option "l", have
4946		an Errors-To: header in the message, and have Errors-To:
4947		defined in the config file H lines.  From J.R. Oldroyd.
4948	Put YPCOMPAT on #ifdef NIS instead -- it's one less thing to get
4949		wrong when compiling.  Suggested by Rick McCarty of TI.
4950	Fix a problem that could pass negative SIZE parameter if the
4951		df file got lost; this would cause servers to always
4952		give a temporary failure, making the problem even worse.
4953		Problem noted by Allan Johannesen of WPI.
4954	Add "ident" timeout (one of the "r" option selectors) for IDENT
4955		protocol timeouts (30s default).  Requested by Murray
4956		Kucherawy of HookUp Communication Corp. to handle bogus
4957		PC TCP/IP implementations.
4958	Change $w default definition to be just the first component of
4959		the domain name on config level 5.  The $j macro defaults
4960		to the FQDN; $m remains as before.  This lets well-behaved
4961		config files use any of the short, long, or subdomain
4962		names.
4963	Add makesendmail script in src to try to automate multi-architecture
4964		builds.  I know, this is sub-optimal, but it is still
4965		helpful.
4966	Fix very obscure race condition that can cause a queue run to
4967		get a queue file for an already completed job.  This
4968		problem has existed for years.  Problem noted by the
4969		long suffering Allan Johannesen of WPI.
4970	Fix a problem that caused the raw sender name to be passed to
4971		udbsender instead of the canonified name -- this caused
4972		it to sometimes miss records that it should have found.
4973	Relax check of name on HELO packet so that a program using -bs
4974		that claims to be itself works properly.
4975	Restore rewriting of $: part of address through 2, R, 4 in
4976		buildaddr -- this requires passing a lot of flags to get
4977		it right.  Unlike old versions, this ONLY rewrites
4978		recipient addresses, not sender addresses.
4979	Fix a bug that caused core dumps in config files that cannot
4980		resolve /file/name style addresses.  Fix from Jonathan
4981		Kamens of OpenVision Technologies.
4982	Fix problem with fcntl locking that can cause error returns to
4983		be lost if the lock is lost; this required fully
4984		queueing everything, dropping the envelope (so errors
4985		would get returned), and then re-reading the queue from
4986		scratch.
4987	Fix a problem that caused aliases that redefine an otherwise
4988		true address to still send to the original address
4989		if and only if the alias failed in certain bizarre
4990		ways (e.g, if they pointed at a list:; syntax address).
4991		Problem pointed out by Jonathan Kamens.
4992	Remove support for frozen configuration files.  They caused
4993		more trouble than it was worth.
4994	Fix problem that can cause error messages to get ignored when
4995		using both -odb and -t flags.  Problem noted by Rob
4996		McNicholas at U.C. Berkeley.
4997	Include all "normal" variations on hostname in $=w.  For example,
4998		if the host name is vangogh.cs.berkeley.edu, $=w will
4999		contain vangogh, vangogh.cs, and vangogh.cs.berkeley.edu.
5000	Add "restrictqrun" privacy flag -- without this, anyone can run
5001		the queue.
5002	Reset SmtpPhase global on initial connection creation so that
5003		messages don't come out with stale information.
5004	Pass an "ext" argument to lockfile so that error/log messages
5005		will properly reflect the true filename being locked.
5006	Put all [...] address forms into $=w -- this eliminates the need
5007		for MAXIPADDR in conf.h.  Suggested by John Gardiner
5008		Myers of CMU.
5009	Fix a bug that can cause qf files to be left around even after
5010		an SMTP RSET command.  Problem and fix from Michael
5011		Corrigan.
5012	Don't send a PostmasterCopy to errors when the Precedence: is
5013		negative.  Error reports still go to the envelope
5014		sender address.
5015	Add LA_SHORT for load averages.
5016	Lock sendmail.st file when posting statistics.
5017	Add "SendBufSize" and "RcvBufSize" suboptions to "O" option to
5018		set the size of the TCP send and receive buffers; if you
5019		run over a slow slip line you may need to set these down
5020		(although it would be better to fix the SLIP implementation
5021		so that it's not necessary to recompile every program
5022		that does bulk data transfer).
5023	Allow null defaults on $( ... $) lookups.  Problem reported by
5024		Amir Plivatsky.
5025	Diagnose crufty S and V config lines.  This resulted from an
5026		observation that some people were using the SITE macro
5027		without the SITECONFIG macro first, which was causing
5028		bogus config files that were not caught.
5029	Fix makemap -f flag to turn off case folding (it was turning it
5030		on instead).  THIS IS A USER VISIBLE CHANGE!!!
5031	Fix a problem that caused multiple error messages to be sent if
5032		you used "sendmail -t -oem -odb", your system uses fcntl
5033		locking, and one of the recipient addresses is unknown.
5034	Reset uid earlier in include() so that recursive .forwards or
5035		:include:s don't use the wrong uid.
5036	If file descriptor 0, 1, or 2 was closed when sendmail was
5037		called, the code to recover the descriptor was broken.
5038		This sometimes (only sometimes) caused problems with the
5039		alias file.  Fix from Motonori Nakamura.
5040	Fix a problem that caused aliaswait to go into infinite recursion
5041		if the @:@ metasymbol wasn't found in the alias file.
5042	Improve error message on newaliases if database files cannot be
5043		opened or if running with no database format defined.
5044	Do a better estimation of the size of error messages when NoReturn
5045		is set.  Problem noted by P{r (Pell) Emanuelsson.
5046	Fix a problem causing the "c" option (don't connect to expensive
5047		mailers) to be ignored in SMTP.  Problem noted and the
5048		solution suggested by Robert Elz of The University of
5049		Melbourne.
5050	Improve connection caching algorithm by passing "[host]" to
5051		hostsignature, which strips the square brackets and
5052		returns the real name.  This allows mailertable entries
5053		to match regular entries.
5054	Re-enable Return-Receipt-To: -- people seem to want this stupid
5055		feature, even if it doesn't work right.
5056	Catch and log attempts to try the "wiz" command in server SMTP.
5057		This also ups the log level from LOG_NOTICE to LOG_CRIT.
5058	Be more generous at assigning $z to the home directory -- do this
5059		for programs that are specified through a .forward file.
5060		Fix from Andrew Chang of Sun Microsystems.
5061	Always save a fatal error message in preference to a non-fatal
5062		error message so that the "subject" line of return
5063		messages is the best possible.
5064	CONFIG: reduce the number of quotes needed to quote configuration
5065		parameters with commas: two quotes should work now, e.g.,
5066		define(ALIAS_FILE, ``/etc/aliases,/etc/aliases.local'').
5067	CONFIG: class $=Z is a set of UUCP hosts that use uucp-dom
5068		connections (domain-ized UUCP).
5069	CONFIG: fix bug in default maps (-o must be before database file
5070		name).  Pointed out by Christophe Wolfhugel.  
5071	CONFIG: add FEATURE(nodns) to state that we are not relying on
5072		DNS.  This would presumably be used in UUCP islands.
5073	CONFIG: add OSTYPE(nextstep) and OSTYPE(linux).
5074	CONFIG: log $u in Received: line.  This is in technical violation
5075		of the standards, since it doesn't guarantee a domain
5076		on the address.
5077	CONFIG: don't assume "m" in local mailer flags -- this means that
5078		if you redefine LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS you will have to include
5079		the "m" flag should you want it.  Apparently some Solaris 2.2
5080		installations can't handle multiple local recipients.
5081		Problem noted by Josh Smith.
5082	CONFIG: add confDOMAIN_NAME to set $j (if undefined, $j defaults).
5083	CONFIG: change default version level from 4 to 5.
5084	CONFIG: add FEATURE(nullclient) to create a config file that
5085		forwards all mail to a hub without ever looking at the
5086		addresses in any detail.
5087	CONFIG: properly strip mailer: information off of relays when
5088		used to change .BITNET form into %-hack form.
5089	CONFIG: fix a problem that caused infinite loops if presented
5090		with an address such as "!foo".
5091	CONFIG: check for self literal (e.g., [128.32.131.12]) even if
5092		the reverse "PTR" mapping is broken.  There's a better
5093		way to do this, but the change is fairly major and I
5094		want to hold it for another release.  Problem noted by
5095		Bret Marquis.
5096
50978.5/8.5		93/07/23
5098	Serious bug: if you used a command line recipient that was unknown
5099		sendmail would not send a return message (it was treating
5100		everything as though it had an SMTP-style client that
5101		would do the return itself).  Problem noted by Josh Smith.
5102	Change "trymx" option in getcanonname() to ignore all MX data,
5103		even during a T_ANY query.  This actually didn't break
5104		anything, because the only time you called getcanonname
5105		with !trymx was if you already knew there were no MX
5106		records, but it is somewhat cleaner.  From Motonori
5107		Nakamura.
5108	Don't call getcanonname from getmxrr if you already know there
5109		are no DNS records matching the name.
5110	Fix a problem causing error messages to always include "The
5111		original message was received ... from localhost".
5112		The correct original host information is now included.
5113	Previous change to cf/sh/makeinfo.sh doesn't port to Ultrix (their
5114		version of "test" doesn't have the -x flag).  Change it
5115		to use -f instead.  From John Myers.
5116	CONFIG: 8.4 mistakenly set the default SMTP-style mailer to
5117		esmtp -- it should be smtp.
5118	CONFIG: send all relayed mail using confRELAY_MAILER (defaults
5119		to "relay" (a variant of "smtp") if MAILER(smtp) is used,
5120		else "suucp" if MAILER(uucp) is used, else "unknown");
5121		this cleans up the configs somewhat.  This fixes a serious
5122		problem that caused route-addrs to get mistaken as relays,
5123		pointed out by John Myers.  WARNING: this also causes
5124		the default on SMART_HOST to change from "suucp" to
5125		"relay" if you have MAILER(smtp) specified.
5126
51278.4/8.4		93/07/22
5128	Add option `w'.  If you receive a message that comes to you because
5129		you are the best (lowest preference) target of an MX, and
5130		you haven't explicitly recognized the source MX host in
5131		your .cf file, this option will cause you to try the target
5132		host directly (as if there were no MX for it at all).  If
5133		`w' is not set, this case is a configuration error.
5134		Beware: if `w' is set, senders may get bogus errors like
5135		"message timed out" or "host unknown" for problems that
5136		are really configuration errors.  This option is
5137		disrecommended, provided only for compatibility with
5138		UIUC sendmail.
5139	Fix a problem that caused the incoming socket to be left open
5140		when sendmail forks after the DATA command.  This caused
5141		calling systems to wait in FIN_WAIT_2 state until the
5142		entire list was processed and the child closed -- a
5143		potentially prodigious amount of time.  Problem noted
5144		by Neil Rickert.
5145	Fix problem (created in 6.64) that caused mail sent to multiple
5146		addresses, one of which was a bad address, to completely
5147		suppress the sending of the message.  This changes
5148		handling of EF_FATALERRS somewhat, and adds an
5149		EF_GLOBALERRS flag.  This also fixes a potential problem
5150		with duplicate error messages if there is a syntax error
5151		in the header of a message that isn't noticed until late
5152		in processing.  Original problem pointed out by Josh Smith
5153		of Harvey Mudd College.  This release includes quite a bit
5154		of dickering with error handling (see below).
5155	Back out SMTP transaction if MAIL gets nested 501 error.  This
5156		will only hurt already-broken software and should help
5157		humans.
5158	Fix a problem that broke aliases when neither NDBM nor NEWDB were
5159		compiled in.  It would never read the alias file.
5160	Repair unbalanced `)' and `>' (the "open" versions are already
5161		repaired).
5162	Logging of "done" in dropenvelope() was incorrect: it would
5163		log this even when the queue file still existed.  Change
5164		this to only log "done" (at log level 11) when the
5165		queue file is actually removed.  From John Myers.
5166	Log "lost connection" in server SMTP at log level 20 if there
5167		is no pending transaction.  Some senders just close the
5168		connection rather than sending QUIT.
5169	Fix a bug causing getmxrr to add a dot to the end of unqualified
5170		domains that do not have MX records -- this would cause
5171		the subsequent host name lookup to fail.  The problem
5172		only occurred if you had FEATURE(nocanonify) set.
5173		Problem noted by Rick McCarty of Texas Instruments.
5174	Fix invocation of setvbuf when passed a -X flag -- I had
5175		unwittingly used an ANSI C extension, and this caused
5176		core dumps on some machines.
5177	Diagnose self-destructive alias loops on RCPT as well as EXPN.
5178		Previously it just gave an empty send queue, which
5179		then gave either "Need RCPT (recipient)" at the DATA
5180		(confusing, since you had given an RCPT command which
5181		returned 250) or just dropped the email, depending on
5182		whether you were running VERBose mode.  Now it usually
5183		diagnoses this case as "aliasing/forwarding loop broken".
5184		Unfortunately, it still doesn't adequately diagnose
5185		some true error conditions.
5186	Add internal concept of "warning messages" using 6xx codes.
5187		These are not reported only to Postmaster.  Unbalanced
5188		parens, brackets, and quotes are printed as 653 codes.
5189		They are always mapped to 5xx codes before use in SMTP.
5190	Clean up error messages to tell both the actual address that
5191		failed and the alias they arose from.  This makes it
5192		somewhat easier to diagnose problems.  Difficulty noted
5193		by Motonori Nakamura.
5194	Fix a problem that inappropriately added a ctladdr to addresses
5195		that shouldn't have had one during a queue run.  This
5196		caused error messages to be handled differently during
5197		a queue run than a direct run.
5198	Don't print the qf name and line number if you get errors during
5199		the direct run of the queue from srvrsmtp -- this was
5200		just extra stuff for users to crawl through.
5201	Put command line flags on second line of pid file so you can
5202		auto-restart the daemon with all appropriate arguments.
5203		Use "kill `head -1 /etc/sendmail.pid`" to stop the
5204		daemon, and "eval `tail -1 /etc/sendmail.pid`" to
5205		restart it.
5206	Remove the ``setuid(getuid())'' in main -- this caused the
5207		IDENT daemon to screw up.  This required that I change
5208		HASSETEUID to HASSETREUID and complicate the mode
5209		changing somewhat because both Ultrix and SunOS seem
5210		to have a bug causing seteuid() to set the saved uid
5211		as well as the effective.  The program test/t_setreuid.c
5212		will test to see if your implementation of setreuid(2)
5213		is appropriately functional.
5214	The FallBackMX (option V) handling failed to properly identify
5215		fallback to yourself -- most of the code was there,
5216		but it wasn't being enabled.  Problem noted by Murray
5217		Kucherawy of the University of Waterloo.
5218	Change :include: open timeout from ETIMEDOUT to an internal
5219		code EOPENTIMEOUT; this avoids adding "during SmtpPhase
5220		with CurHostName" in error messages, which can be
5221		confusing.  Reported by Jonathan Kamens of OpenVision
5222		Technologies.
5223	Back out setpgrp (setpgid on POSIX systems) call to reset the
5224		process group id.  The original fix was to get around
5225		some problems with recalcitrant MUAs, but it breaks
5226		any call from a shell that creates a process group id
5227		different from the process id.  I could try to fix
5228		this by diddling the tty owner (using tcsetpgrp or
5229		equivalent) but this is too likely to break other
5230		things.
5231	Portability changes:
5232		Support -M as equivalent to -oM on Ultrix -- apparently
5233			DECnet calls sendmail with -MrDECnet -Ms<HOST> -bs
5234			instead of using standard flags.  Oh joy.  This
5235			behavior reported by Jon Giltner of University
5236			of Colorado.
5237		SGI IRIX  -- this includes several changes that should
5238			help other strict ANSI compilers.
5239		SCO Unix -- from Murray Kucherawy of HookUp Communication
5240			Corporation.
5241		Solaris running the Sun C compiler (which despite the
5242			documentation apparently doesn't define
5243			__STDC__ by default).
5244		ConvexOS from Eric Schnoebelen of Convex.
5245		Sony NEWS workstations and Omron LUNA workstations from
5246			Motonori Nakamura.
5247	CONFIG: add confTRY_NULL_MX_LIST to set option `w'.
5248	CONFIG: delete `C' and `e' from default SMTP mailers flags;
5249		several people have made a good argument that this
5250		creates more problems than it solves (although this
5251		may prove painful in the short run).
5252	CONFIG: generalize all the relays to accept a "mailer:host"
5253		format.
5254	CONFIG: move local processing in ruleset 0 into a new ruleset
5255		98 (8 on old sendmail).  Domain literal [a.b.c.d]
5256		addresses are also passed through this ruleset.
5257	CONFIG: if neither SMART_HOST nor MAILER(smtp) were defined,
5258		internet-style addresses would "fall off the end" of
5259		ruleset zero and be interpreted as local -- however,
5260		the angle brackets confused the recursive call.
5261		These are now diagnosed as "Unrecognized host name".
5262	CONFIG: USENET rules weren't included in S0 because of a mistaken
5263		ifdef(`_MAILER_USENET_') instead of
5264		ifdef(`_MAILER_usenet_').  Problem found by Rein Tollevik
5265		of SINTEF RUNIT, Oslo.
5266	CONFIG: move up LOCAL_RULE_0 processing so that it happens very
5267		early in ruleset 0; this allows .mc authors to bypass
5268		things like the "short circuit" code for local addresses.
5269		Prompted by a comment by Bill Wisner of The Well.
5270	CONFIG: add confSMTP_MAILER to define the mailer used (smtp or
5271		esmtp) to send SMTP mail.  This allows you to default
5272		to esmtp but use a mailertable or other override to
5273		deal with broken servers.  This logic was pointed out
5274		to me by Bill Wisner.  Ditto for confLOCAL_MAILER.
5275	Changes to cf/sh/makeinfo.sh to make it portable to SVR4
5276		environments.  Ugly as sin.
5277
52788.3/8.3		93/07/13
5279	Fix setuid problems introduced in 8.2 that caused messages
5280		like "Cannot create qfXXXXXX: Invalid argument"
5281		or "Cannot reopen dfXXXXXX: Permission denied".  This
5282		involved a new compile flag "HASSETEUID" that takes
5283		the place of the old _POSIX_SAVED_IDS -- it turns out
5284		that the POSIX interface is broken enough to break
5285		some systems badly.  This includes some fixes for
5286		HP-UX.  Also fixes problems where the real uid is
5287		not reset properly on startup (from Neil Rickert).
5288	Fix a problem that caused timed out messages to not report the
5289		addresses that timed out.  Error messages are also more
5290		"user friendly".
5291	Drop required bandwidth on connections from 64 bytes/sec to
5292		16 bytes/sec.
5293	Further Solaris portability changes -- doesn't require the BSD
5294		compatibility library.  This also adds a new
5295		"HASGETDTABLESIZE" compile flag which can be used if
5296		you want to use getdtablesize(2) instead of sysconf(2).
5297		These are loosely based on changes from David Meyer at
5298		University of Oregon.  This now seems to work, at least
5299		for quick test cases.
5300	Fix a problem that can cause duplicate error messages to be
5301		sent if you are in SMTP, you send to multiple addresses,
5302		and at least one of those addresses is good and points
5303		to an account that has a .forward file (whew!).
5304	Fix a problem causing messages to be discarded if checkcompat()
5305		returned EX_TEMPFAIL (because it didn't properly mark
5306		the "to" address).  Problem noted by John Myers.
5307	Fix dfopen to return NULL if the open failed; I was depending
5308		on fdopen(-1) returning NULL, which isn't the case.  This
5309		isn't serious, but does result in weird error diagnoses.
5310		From Michael Corrigan.
5311	CONFIG: add UUCP_MAX_SIZE M4 macro to set the maximum size of
5312		messages sent through UUCP-family mailers.  Suggested
5313		by Bill Wisner of The Well.
5314	CONFIG: if both MAILER(uucp) and MAILER(smtp) are specified,
5315		include a "uucp-dom" mailer that uses domain-style
5316		addressing.  Suggested by Bill Wisner.
5317	CONFIG: Add LOCAL_SHELL_FLAGS and LOCAL_SHELL_ARGS to match
5318		LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS and LOCAL_MAILER_ARGS.  Suggested by
5319		Christophe Wolfhugel.
5320	CONFIG: Add OSTYPE(aix3).  From Christophe Wolfhugel.
5321
53228.2/8.2		93/07/11
5323	Don't drop out on config file parse errors in -bt mode.
5324	On older configuration files, assume option "l" (use Errors-To
5325		header) for back compatibility.  NOTE:  this DOES NOT
5326		imply an endorsement of the Errors-To: header in any way.
5327	Accept -x flag on AIX-3 as well as OSF/1.  Why, why, why???
5328	Don't log errors on EHLO -- it isn't a "real" error for an old
5329		SMTP server to give an error on this command, and
5330		logging it in the transcript can be confusing.  Fix
5331		from Bill Wisner.
5332	IRIX compatibility changes provided by Dan Rich
5333		<drich@sandman.lerc.nasa.gov>.
5334	Solaris 2 compatibility changes.  Provided by Bob Cunningham
5335		<bob@kahala.soest.hawaii.edu>, John Oleynick
5336		<juo@klinzhai.rutgers.edu>
5337	Debugging: -d17 was overloaded (hostsignature and usersmtp.c);
5338		move usersmtp (smtpinit and smtpmailfrom) to -d18 to
5339		match the other flags in that file.
5340	Flush transcript before fork in mailfile().  From Eric Wassenaar.
5341	Save h_errno in mci struct and improve error message display.
5342		Changes from Eric Wassenaar.
5343	Open /dev/null for the transcript if the create of the xf file
5344		failed; this avoids at least one possible null pointer
5345		reference in very weird cases.  From Eric Wassenaar.
5346	Clean up statistics gathering; it was over-reporting because of
5347		forks.  From Eric Wassenaar.
5348	Fix problem that causes old Return-Path: line to override new
5349		Return-Path: line (conf.c needs H_FORCE to avoid
5350		re-using old value).  From Motonori Nakamura.
5351	Fix broken -m flag in K definition -- even if -m (match only)
5352		was specified, it would still replace the key with the
5353		value.  Noted by Rick McCarty of Texas Instruments.
5354	If the name server timed out over several days, no "timed out"
5355		message would ever be sent back.  The timeout code
5356		has been moved from markfailure() to dropenvelope()
5357		so that all such failures should be diagnosed.  Pointed
5358		out by Christophe Wolfhugel and others.
5359	Relax safefile() constraints: directories in an include or
5360		forward path must be readable by self if the controlling
5361		user owns the entry, readable by all otherwise (e.g.,
5362		when reading your .forward file, you have to own and
5363		have X permission in it; everyone needs X permission in
5364		the root and directories leading up to your home);
5365		include files must be readable by anyone, but need not
5366		be owned by you.
5367	If _POSIX_SAVED_IDS is defined, setuid to the owner before
5368		reading a .forward file; this gets around some problems
5369		on NFS mounts if root permission is not exported and
5370		the user's home directory isn't x'able.
5371	Additional NeXT portability enhancements from Axel Zinser.
5372	Additional HP-UX portability enhancements from Brian Bullen.
5373	Add a timeout around SMTP message writes; this assumes you can
5374		get throughput of at least 64 bytes/second.  Note that
5375		this does not impact the "datafinal" default, which
5376		is separate; this is just intended to work around
5377		network clogs that will occur before the final dot
5378		is sent.  From Eric Wassenaar.
5379	Change map code to set the "include null" flag adaptively --
5380		it initially tries both, but if it finds anything
5381		matching without a null it never tries again with a
5382		null and vice versa.  If -N is specified, it never
5383		tries without the null and creates new maps with a
5384		null byte.  If -O is specified, it never tries with
5385		the null (for efficiency).  If -N and -O are specified,
5386		you get -NO (get it?) lookup at all, so this would
5387		be a bad idea.  If you don't specify either -N or -O,
5388		it adapts.
5389	Fix recognition of "same from address" so that MH submissions
5390		will insert the appropriate full name information;
5391		this used to work and got broken somewhere along the
5392		way.
5393	Some changes to eliminate some unnecessary SYSERRs in the
5394		log.  For example, if you lost a connection, don't
5395		bother reporting that fact on the connection you lost.
5396	Add some "extended debugging" flags to try to track down
5397		why we get occasional problems with file descriptor
5398		one being closed when execing a mailer; it seems to
5399		only happen when there has been another error in the
5400		same transaction.  This requires XDEBUG, defined
5401		by default in conf.h.
5402	Add "-X filename" command line flag, which logs both sides of
5403		all SMTP transactions.  This is intended ONLY for
5404		debugging bad implementations of other mailers; start
5405		it up, send a message from a mailer that is failing,
5406		and then kill it off and examine the indicated log.
5407		This output is not intended to be particularly human
5408		readable.  This also adds the HASSETVBUF compile
5409		flag, defaulted on if your compiler defines __STDC__.
5410	CONFIG: change SMART_HOST to override an SMTP mailer.  If you
5411		have a local net that should get direct connects, you
5412		will need to use LOCAL_NET_CONFIG to catch these hosts.
5413		See cf/README for an example.
5414	CONFIG: add LOCAL_MAILER_ARGS (default: `mail -d $u') to handle
5415		sites that don't use the -d flag.
5416	CONFIG: hide recipient addresses as well as sender addresses
5417		behind $M if FEATURE(allmasquerade) is specified; this
5418		has been requested by several people, but can break
5419		local aliases.  For example, if you mail to "localalias"
5420		this will be rewritten as "localalias@masqueradehost";
5421		although initial delivery will work, replies will be
5422		broken.  Use it sparingly.
5423	CONFIG: add FEATURE(domaintable).  This maps unqualified domains
5424		to qualified domains in headers.  I believe this is
5425		largely equivalent to the IDA feature of the same name.
5426	CONFIG: use $U as UUCP name instead of $k.  This permits you
5427		to override the "system name" as your UUCP name --
5428		in particular, to use domain-ized UUCP names.  From
5429		Bill Wisner of The Well.
5430	CONFIG: create new mailer "esmtp" that always tries EHLO
5431		first.  This is currently unused in the config files,
5432		but could be used in a mailertable entry.
5433
54348.1C/8.1B	93/06/27
5435	Serious security bug fix: it was possible to read any file on
5436		the system, regardless of ownership and permissions.
5437	If a subroutine returns a fully qualified address, return it
5438		immediately instead of feeding it back into rewriting.
5439		This fixes a problem with mailertable lookups.
5440	CONFIG: fix some M4 frotz (concat => CONCAT)
5441
54428.1B/8.1A	93/06/12
5443	Serious bug fix: pattern matching backup algorithm stepped by
5444		two tokens in classes instead of one.  Found by Claus
5445		Assmann at University of Kiel, Germany.
5446
54478.1A/8.1A	93/06/08
5448	Another mailertable fix....
5449
54508.1/8.1		93/06/07
5451	4.4BSD freeze.  No semantic changes.
5452
54536.65/6.34	93/06/06
5454	Fix some lintish problems.
5455	Fix some cases where server SMTP behaved poorly when handed bogus
5456		input, pointed out by Eric Wassenaar.
5457	CONFIG: fix some more (sigh) mailertable bugs -- thanks to
5458		Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University (again).
5459
54606.64/6.33	93/06/05
5461	Don't send 050 (-v) information after the 250 response to a QUIT
5462		command in srvrsmtp -- clients usually close the connection
5463		at this point, and it causes bogus error messages.
5464	Don't send messages that have errors on input (such as unbalanced
5465		parentheses) during SMTP transactions, since a return
5466		message has (probably) already been sent.
5467	Give better diagnostics on timeouts during network reads, including
5468		information similar to the SMTP phase.
5469	Fix bug that caused SMTP messages to deliver synchronously; this
5470		happened after the DATA 250, and hence caused reading the
5471		next command to be delayed.
5472	Ignore Errors-To: header unless 'l' (lower case el) header is
5473		specified.  The Errors-To: header violates RFC 1123.
5474		Errors-To: was only needed to take the place of the
5475		envelope sender in the days when most Unix mailers
5476		didn't understand about the two kinds of senders.
5477	Don't send warning messages in response to automatically generated
5478		messages (that is, those From:<>).
5479	CONFIG: fix some rather stupid typos in the mailertable code
5480		pointed out by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
5481	CONFIG: add confUSE_ERRORS_TO configuration option.
5482	CONFIG: if ALWAYS_ADD_DOMAIN is selected, try to use $M
5483		(masquerade name) instead of $j.
5484	CONFIG: don't add dots to relay names (added in 6.29); it breaks
5485		several things, and can be simulated by dot terminating
5486		the names of relays.  For example, use:
5487			DBbit.net.relay.
5488		(note the trailing dot).
5489
54906.63/6.32	93/06/01
5491	Fix prototypes to eliminate chars in argument lists -- some
5492		compilers are pissy about this.
5493	Log protocol ($r) and body type if set so we can determine if
5494		the adaptive algorithms are working.
5495	Pessimize on locking of database files (particularly for NEWDB
5496		databases) during opens.  There were problems with
5497		processes opening the file while it was rebuilt; since
5498		NEWDB caches heavily, the reader opened an empty file,
5499		which is an error.  If your system has the ability to
5500		lock atomically on open, this works properly; otherwise,
5501		there are race conditions.
5502	Check mod time on .pag file instead of .dir in NDBM aliases
5503		because the .dir file doesn't get updated for small
5504		alias files.  From John Gardiner Myers of CMU.
5505	More Solaris portability -- it now compiles on Solaris, but
5506		hangs up in gethostbyname().
5507	Move setting of RES_DEBUG flag before first myhostname() call
5508		so we can see name server traffic on that call.
5509	Fsync() queue files.
5510	Fix a problem that causes -bi to try to rebuild maps other than
5511		the alias file(s).
5512	Fix a problem that caused udb to reject entries from any but
5513		the first database listed.
5514	Rearrange doc subdirectory for 4.4BSD release tape.
5515	CONFIG: put $r into the Received line.  This was an oversight.
5516	CONFIG: fix typo (call to ruleset 99 should have been ruleset 90).
5517	CONFIG: move "auxiliary" subroutines to be in ruleset 90-99
5518		range -- in the long run, single digit rulesets may
5519		become reserved for builtin use by sendmail.
5520	CONFIG: fix major problem that causes host aliases (that is,
5521		anything in $=w != $j) to not be recognized.  This has
5522		been around since 6.30.
5523
55246.62/6.31	93/05/28
5525	BETA RELEASE
5526	Fix recursive syserr (if there is an error printing a syserr
5527		message).  This makes the code much less eager to consider
5528		a write error as serious.  This also includes some
5529		heuristics to be clever about closed connections.
5530	Lock NEWDB files during gets.  This requires version 1.5 or later
5531		of the db library.  If you have an older version, you
5532		can use -DOLD_NEWDB.  This will go away in a few weeks.
5533	Fix problem causing aliases that use host maps to get overwritten.
5534	Do appropriate byte swapping on port numbers in ident protocol
5535		code.  Fix from Allan Johannesen of WPI.
5536	Defer opening of map files to the same time as alias files so that
5537		the daemon will tend to pick up new versions more promptly.
5538	Prototype a bunch more functions.
5539	Some Solaris 2.1 changes (still doesn't link though).
5540	Try to simplify Makefiles by including more subordinate #defines
5541		in conf.h (based on OS type).
5542	CONFIG: check for domains if FEATURE(mailertable) is defined.
5543		For example, if the host name is "knecht.cs.berkeley.edu"
5544		it will search the following mailertable keys:
5545			knecht.cs.berkeley.edu
5546			.cs.berkeley.edu
5547			.berkeley.edu
5548			.edu
5549		This could be used to replace the special relays for bitnet
5550		and similar nets.
5551
55526.61/6.30	93/05/24
5553	Fix problem that prevented appending dots on canonified host
5554		names.  This breaks tons of config files -- very
5555		important fix.
5556	Fix improper pointer dereference in response to HELO command.
5557	Fix core dump if debugging set in map_rewrite.
5558	CONFIG: add FEATURE(always_add_domain) to always attach the
5559		local domain (only impacts local mail).
5560	CONFIG: try to avoid turning names into $j -- although
5561		technically a host can only have one "canonical name",
5562		it seems to be common practice to have several.
5563
55646.60/6.29	93/05/22
5565	Major change: merge alias databases with maps.  This expands and
5566		changes the map class interface but fixes a bunch of bugs.
5567		The important user-visible change is that the file name
5568		in a K line now does not include the ".db" extension; this
5569		is added automatically.  Also, the -d (NIS domain) flag is
5570		missing from the K config line; use @domain instead.
5571		When compiling, the *_MAP names are gone -- just compile
5572		in NDBM, NEWDB, and/or NIS support.
5573	Announce mailer/host/user triple on -bv flag -- from Brian
5574		Bullen of Stirling University.
5575	Don't send more than one line in response to HELO -- it confuses
5576		Pony Express, which then behaves very badly.  However,
5577		this change does send two line 220 greetings, with the
5578		second line reading "ESMTP spoken here".  The usersmtp
5579		module recognizes this and goes into ESMTP mode regardless
5580		of the setting of the "a" mailer flag.  Thus, "a" means
5581		"always try EHLO".
5582	AIX portability changes (thanks to Christophe Wolfhugel of
5583		Herve Schauer Consultants (Paris) for providing me with
5584		an INSA account for this purpose).  Lightly tested.  Use
5585		-D_AIX3.  This probably breaks compatibility with some
5586		older systems (e.g., 4.2bsd) but still works on SunOS
5587		4.1.2, Ultrix 4.2A, HP-UX 8.07, OSF/1 T1.3, and AIX 3.2.3.
5588	Fix a problem causing an error message loop if the output channel
5589		is hosed.
5590	Add the Makefiles that I use for various environments -- some are
5591		Berkeley make versions and some are old make versions.
5592		My makefile for the NeXT box has gotten lost, alas!
5593	PRALIASES: support for printing NEWDB databases.  From
5594		Michael J. Corrigan of U.C. San Diego.
5595	CONFIG: don't pass pseudo-domains to $[ ... $] (if you have
5596		a wildcard MX it can have weird results).  From
5597		Christophe Wolfhugel.
5598	CONFIG: dot terminate relay hostnames in S0.  From Christophe
5599		Wolfhugel.
5600
56016.59/6.28	93/05/13
5602	Log version with SMTP daemon startup message.
5603	Adjust setproctitle to work on NetBSD and BSD/386.
5604	Fix null pointer reference in MX fallback code.
5605	A bunch of minor fixes from Eric Wassenaar:
5606		If deliver cannot execv the mailer, return EX_OSERR
5607			instead of EX_TEMPFAIL (to give better
5608			error messages).
5609		Consistently malloc e_message.
5610		Catch degenerate case of calling returntosender()
5611			with an empty returnq.
5612		MIME reformatting.
5613
56146.58/6.28	93/05/13
5615	Fix bug that can cause incorrect verbose display of user smtp
5616		messages.
5617	Disable SMTP VERB command if PRIV_NOEXPN is set (since this
5618		could reveal the same information.
5619	Allow failure when reading SMTP greeting message to go on to
5620		next MX host.
5621	Add "MIME-Version: 1.0" header if using MIME (this was NOT
5622		included in RFC 1344, but Bill King of Allan-Bradley
5623		Company forwarded me email from Nathaniel Borenstein
5624		claiming that it was an inadvertent omission).
5625	Don't use Content-Type: X-message-header.  According to John
5626		Myers of CMU, many MIME readers will completely ignore
5627		the data if they don't recognize it.  Instead, just
5628		add a blank line to make it a legal (empty) message.
5629	Fix problem causing dots to keep getting appended to cached
5630		hostnames.  This can cause buffer overrun conditions.
5631		The problem was found by Erik Forsberg of Retix,
5632		although I used a different bug fix than he provided.
5633	Fix parsing of split header/envelope rewriting specs -- from
5634		Eric Forsberg.
5635	Fix from Eric Wassenaar to correct To: lists in error messages.
5636
56376.57/6.28	93/05/11
5638	Fix minor glitch causing extra ctladdrs to be output to queue
5639		file.  Just an annoyance.
5640	Cache results of name server canonification lookups to avoid
5641		backed up queue runs.
5642	Major rewrite of alias.c: considerable cleanup, plus sample
5643		(untested) support for NIS aliases.  The "A" option
5644		can now be a comma separated list (or be repeated) --
5645		that is, you can have multiple alias databases.  Each
5646		database can have the syntax ``class:file''; if no class
5647		is specified, the "implicit" class is assumed.  Implicit
5648		searches through a list of compiled in types -- hash,
5649		dbm, nis, and stab.  Alias files are searched in the
5650		order they are listed.  For example:
5651			OAhash:/etc/aliases.local,/etc/aliases
5652			OAnis:mail.aliases@my.nis.domain
5653		first searches the hash database /etc/aliases.local,
5654		then the regular /etc/aliases database, then the NIS
5655		map "mail.aliases" in the NIS domain "my.nis.domain".
5656	If in Verbose mode (probably from VERB command) run SMTP job
5657		in foreground and don't do RCPT optimizations.
5658	Add udb :mailsender as equivalent to owner- for regular aliases.
5659	Delete option 8; add option 7 that means the opposite.  That is,
5660		default to 8-bit mode; a special option is needed to
5661		force sendmail into 7 bit mode.
5662	Send error messages in encapsulated MIME format.
5663	New compile flag "NIS" that turns on NIS alias and NIS map
5664		support.
5665	Add "j" option to send error messages in MIME (RFC 1341)
5666		encapsulated message format per RFC 1344.  The
5667		syntax is pretty ugly if you don't have MIME-aware
5668		user agents.
5669	Clean up message handling (for display in mailq output).
5670	New setproctitle implementation for 4.4bsd.
5671	Create files (such as ~/dead.letter) using mode FileMode (the
5672		F option value) instead of 0666.
5673	Fix bug causing output of EXPN command to not be fully qualified.
5674		This may cause some problems with UUCP addresses that
5675		will require some config file assistance -- specifically,
5676		the $: part has to include the host name for this output
5677		to make sense.
5678	Fix a problem that sometimes diagnosed errors and still sent the
5679		message if the header syntax was bad.
5680	Fix a bug that caused an error message to be emailed when sendmail
5681		was operating in -bv mode.
5682	Add "ListenQueueSize" keyword to daemon options option (OO) to
5683		set the queue size parameter passed to listen().  You
5684		will normally have to tweak your kernel to up this.
5685	Strip spaces off of beginning of message-id before logging (in
5686		case it was folded across lines).
5687	Tweak compile flags in daemon.c -- there were some cases where
5688		it wouldn't work without NETINET.
5689	Change *file* mailer to output all the usual default headers
5690		(From, Date, Message-Id).  It gets used when sending
5691		back error messages.
5692	CONFIG: explicitly catch and diagnose list:; syntax in ruleset
5693		zero -- this is not a valid recipient syntax according
5694		to RFC 821.
5695	CONFIG: add confMIME_FORMAT_ERRORS to send error messages in
5696		MIME format.  Defaults to on.
5697	CONFIG: add SMTP_MAILER_FLAGS and UUCP_MAILER_FLAGS to augment
5698		the flags for those mailers.
5699
57006.56/6.27	93/05/01
5701	Fix problem that causes the fallback mail to postmaster
5702		(case ESM_POSTMASTER in savemail()) to not look at
5703		aliases (ugh).
5704	Some more HPUX tweaking (compile flag hpux => __hpux so it
5705		still works in ANSI mode).
5706	Don't try to flock non-regular files when mailing to a file.
5707		In particular, this was a problem if you tried to
5708		send to /dev/null.
5709	Fix a weird bug that can cause senders to be queued as
5710		recipients if the name server is down when the mail
5711		is initially sent.  This hack just ignores sender
5712		deletion (essentially, it sets the MeToo flag) if there
5713		is a TEMPFAIL during processing of the sender address.
5714		Obscure.
5715	Fix a dangling else problem -- from Brian Bullen from University
5716		of Stirling, UK.
5717	Add the "b" mailer flag to force a blank line on the end of
5718		messages.  Some brilliant versions of /bin/mail insist
5719		on this but do not add it themselves.
5720	Add the "g" mailer flag to prevent user SMTP from sending
5721		"MAIL From:<>".  This is only intended to be a
5722		transitional gesture, and should not be used if at
5723		all possible.  It appears that Berkeley and IDA
5724		config files have always handled this properly; the
5725		UK config kit apparently does not.
5726	Don't lowercase and then capitalize header field names -- leave
5727		them with original capitalization.  Fixes from Bill
5728		King of Allen-Bradley Company.
5729	Further cleanup and improved reporting of error messages,
5730		particularly conditions that cause messages to be
5731		requeued for future delivery.
5732	Tweak syslog priorities in some cases.
5733	CONFIG: clean up route-addr on UUCP addresses.
5734
57356.55/6.25	93/04/27
5736	HPUX 8.07 compatibility changes in getla() -- I had to make
5737		these changes to get it to work at Berkeley, although
5738		others seem to have been working before (???).
5739	Various patches to XLA code.
5740	Fix problem that causes setuid bit on files to be ignored from
5741		SMTP or in queue runs.  Problem noted by Jason Ornstein
5742		of Under The Wire, Inc.
5743	Fix problem that can cause CNAMEs to be ignored.
5744	Generalize getmxrr to match local host in $=w instead of a
5745		single name passed in.
5746	Some cleanup from Eric Wassenaar:
5747		Use FileMailer instead of ProgMailer in two places.
5748		Eliminate duplicate 8th-bit stripping in commaize.
5749		Fix a problem with mis-parsing of backslash escapes
5750			under some circumstances.
5751	NIS map fix (was always including trailing null character)
5752		from Mike Glendinning of Ingres UK.
5753	Add "a" mailer flag to try using ESMTP.  It tries the EHLO
5754		command and if that fails falls back to regular SMTP.
5755		Also parses EHLO option keywords.  If host supports
5756		SIZE extension, this is added to the MAIL FROM:
5757		command.
5758	Extend "b" option to include a second value which is the
5759		maximum message size this server is willing to accept.
5760		For example, a value of "10/1000000" says that there
5761		must be ten blocks free, and sendmail will reject
5762		any message larger than one megabyte.
5763	Some portability hooks for NeXT (this could be applicable
5764		to Mach in general).  You have to create an empty
5765		file called "unistd.h" to get it to compile.
5766	Adjust config values (MAXLINE, MAXATOM, and PSBUFSIZE) to
5767		be more generous.
5768	Add X400-Received: to the list of headers tagged with H_TRACE
5769		in conf.c.  From Bill King, Allen-Bradley Co.
5770
57716.54/6.25	93/04/19
5772	Fix problem that caused redefinition of SMTP and QUEUE compile
5773		flags.  Pointed out by Jon Forrest of the Sequoia 2000
5774		project at Berkeley.
5775	Properly handle \! hack -- it was treating host\!user as one
5776		token (host!user) instead of three (host, !, user).
5777		Fix from Eric Wassenaar of NIKHEF-H.
5778	Fix compilation problem in getauthinfo() if IDENTPROTO is off.
5779	Turn off DEFNAMES and DNSRCH when getting the hostsignature
5780		(i.e., MX records) in level 1 configuration files; this
5781		matches the old behavior.  From Motonori Nakamura of
5782		Kyoto University.
5783	Improve error message printing -- if sent through an alias,
5784		error messages include the name of the alias in the
5785		message.  Unfortunately, in order to make this work
5786		properly in queue runs, this changes the format of the
5787		C line in the qf file.  The relatively uselessness of
5788		the previous information was pointed out to me by
5789		Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
5790	Add XLA compile flag to add hooks to Christophe Wolfhugel's
5791		extended load average code.  This is still in very early
5792		form.  For information regarding the guts of the xla
5793		code, contact Christophe.Wolfhugel@grasp.insa-lyon.fr.
5794	Additional hooks for detecting tempfails in rewriting rules
5795		(that is, in map lookups).
5796
57976.53/6.25	93/04/15
5798	Properly diagnose ruleset zero returning null (instead of a mailer
5799		triple).  From Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
5800	More generalization of socket code for other protocols.
5801	Shorten timeouts on reverse name lookups -- since they are done
5802		during connection establishment, long timeouts here can
5803		cause higher level timeouts.  This mainly serves to accept
5804		mail from hosts that do not have proper reverse (PTR) DNS
5805		records set up.
5806	Reset e_statmsg before each mailer invocation to avoid bogus
5807		messages in the log.
5808	Redefine $r, $s, and $_ in error envelopes so you don't get
5809		incorrect cruft in the error message.  Problem noted by
5810		Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
5811	Fix a problem that can cause failure to return errors to Postmaster
5812		in certain cases.  From Motonori Nakamura.
5813	Fix a problem that can cause some systems to give duplicate error
5814		messages when a bad syntax address such as "<a" is presented
5815		to an SMTP server.   It doesn't seem to occur on all
5816		machines.  From Motonori Nakamura.
5817	Default IDENTPROTO off for Ultrix and HPUX, which apparently have
5818		the interesting "feature" that when they receive a "Host
5819		unreachable" message they closes all open connections to
5820		that host.  However, some firewall gateways send this message
5821		if you try to connect to an unauthorized port, such as the
5822		IDENT port (113).  Thus, no email can be received from such
5823		hosts.  There is some evidence that versions of Ultrix before
5824		4.3 do not have this problem.  Thanks to Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
5825		for pointing out this behavior to me and to Michael Corrigan
5826		of U.C. San Diego for informing me about the HPUX problem.
5827	Allow IPC mailers to return a colon-separated list of hosts in the
5828		$@ clause; these are searched in order as though they were
5829		MX records.
5830	When sending an error report, print the list of addresses tagged
5831		as bad.  Requested by Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
5832	Change map function calls to return a status code.  This gets
5833		passed back as the result of rewrite.  Parseaddr marks
5834		the address as a QUEUEUP address if the return code is
5835		EX_TEMPFAIL.  All this to queue properly if the name
5836		server is down.  This code is not well tested.  This code
5837		changes the interface to map lookup functions (a fifth
5838		parameter, int *statp, is added).  Feature requested by
5839		Dan Oscarsson.
5840	Don't delete quotes (in the dequote map) if there are spaces in
5841		the string, since this would cause them to be replaced by
5842		the SpaceSub character.
5843	Accept BODY=8BITMIME on SMTP MAIL command.  This isn't advertised
5844		because the 8BIT to 7BIT translation doesn't exist yet.
5845		This does add a "bodytype" field to both envelope and
5846		queue file and a -B command line flag to pass the type in
5847		during direct invocations.
5848	Discard return error messages only on responses to responses to
5849		responses, not on responses to responses.  That is, the
5850		algorithm is to try return to sender, then return to
5851		postmaster, then discard.  Previously it discarded
5852		immediately if the return to sender pass failed.
5853	CONFIG: back out change to hide unqualified hostnames behind %-hack.
5854		This screws up local aliases and .forward files.
5855	CONFIG: add FEATURE(nocanonify) to turn off calls to $[ ... $];
5856		some sites only handle completely canonified names.
5857		Requested by John Gardiner Myers of CMU.
5858	CONFIG: some UUCP code was still included even if FEATURE(nouucp)
5859		was specified.
5860
58616.52/6.24	93/04/10
5862	Clean up some minor glitches on error return messages pointed out
5863		by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
5864	Fix reply() to not reset SmtpReplyBuffer on fatal errors; this
5865		was supposed to reset SmtpMsg Buffer.  This makes the
5866		client side code virtually useless.  Reported by Allan
5867		E Johannesen of WPI and Phil Brandenberger of Swarthmore.
5868	Better debug messages if fuzzy is disabled, suggested by Allan
5869		E Johannesen of WPI.
5870	Offset SmtpReplyBuffer by four in usersmtp when checking for
5871		loopback.  From Eric Wassenaar.
5872	Don't set $s until after runinchild in srvrsmtp -- otherwise
5873		it gets cleared.  From Eric Wassenaar.
5874	Implement IDA-style $&x for deferred macro expansion.
5875	More POSIX compatibility.
5876	CONFIG: Hide unqualified hostnames behind %-hack using $s as the
5877		actual sender.  This is only done if $r is non-null, that
5878		is, if this is not locally submitted mail.
5879	CONFIG: Add FEATURE(bitdomain) allowing mapping of BITNET host
5880		names to internet domains.  A program contributed by
5881		John Gardiner Myers of CMU to create the maps is included
5882		in the contrib directory (in the "misc" tar file).
5883	CONFIG: Add FEATURE(uucpdomain) for a similar mapping for UUCP
5884		hosts.  There is currently no tool to create this map.
5885
58866.51/6.23	93/04/04
5887	Add D= mailer flag to specify a path of possible working directories
5888		in which to execute the mailer.  This is intended for the
5889		prog mailer; some shells can get upset if they don't have
5890		access to the current directory.
5891	Add RFC 1413 (IDENT) protocol support.  This is only very loosely
5892		tested.  This adds a $_ macro to be the authenticated
5893		info (in ``user@domain [address]'' form) and debug flag
5894		9 to trace the protocol.
5895	Check for loopbacks in usersmtp instead of srvrsmtp -- there is no
5896		reason for a local agent to not be talking to the localhost
5897		(although the inverse is not true).
5898	Add a few hooks for automated map rebuilding.  This is certainly
5899		not done yet.
5900	CONFIG: Have prog mailer specify a path of ``D=$z:/'' -- that is,
5901		user's home directory then the root.
5902	CONFIG: Log RFC 1413 identification in Received: line.
5903
59046.50/6.22	93/04/01
5905	Fixes to requeueing code to make it compute priority, nrcpts,
5906		and the like properly.
5907
59086.49/6.22	93/04/01
5909	Diagnose incorrect privacy flags.  Suggested by Bryan Costales
5910		of ICSI.
5911	Some ANSI C fixes.
5912	Arrange to quote backslashes as well as other special characters
5913		in the phrase part of a route-addr.
5914	Some fixes to FallBackMX code suggested by Motonori Nakamura of
5915		Kyoto University.
5916	More vigorous zeroing of CurHostAddr to avoid logging of bogus
5917		host addresses when you are actually just printing
5918		information from the MCI structure; problem noted by
5919		Michael Corrigan of U.C. San Diego.
5920	Don't ignore rest of queue if any job is not runnable.  This can
5921		also cause an incorrect job to be lost.  Fix from
5922		Eric Wassenaar.
5923	Always respond "quickly" to RCPT command; do alias expansion and
5924		the like later.  This also means that mail for lists that
5925		have errors will be accepted, and an error sent back
5926		later.  This is done by instantiating the queue file
5927		and then immediately running and requeueing it.
5928
59296.48/6.22	93/03/30
5930	Fix incorrect diagnosis of infinite loop in ruleset.  Problem noted
5931		by several people.
5932	Improve information printed when infinite loops are discovered.
5933	Zero CurHostAddr to fix erroneous internet addresses in log when no
5934		addresses can be bound.  Pointed out by Motonori Nakamura
5935		of Kyoto University.
5936	"Probe" SMTP connections using RSET instead of NOOP "just in case".
5937		Suggested by John Gardiner Myers of CMU.
5938	Don't warn about -f if you are setting sender to yourself.
5939
59406.47/6.22	93/03/29
5941	Fix incompatible call to endmailer in smtpquit which causes core
5942		dumps.  Noted by Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
5943	HPUX portability changes from Michael J. Corrigan of UC San Diego.
5944	Require MAIL before RCPT command in srvrsmtp.c.  This had been
5945		intentional from the 821 draft days when the order wasn't
5946		clear, but is silly now.
5947	Fix bug in nis_magic routine that was initializing parameters
5948		incorrectly.  Fix from Takahiro Kanbe of Fuji Xerox
5949		Information Systems Co., Ltd.
5950	Change default for PrivacyFlags in conf.c to 0 -- since it always
5951		"or"s in new values, there was no way to turn off the
5952		AuthWarning stuff.
5953	Add O option to set SMTP daemon options.
5954	Add V option to set fallback MX host.  This always sorts at lower
5955		priority than anything it gets from the name server.  It
5956		should only be used for environments with very bad network
5957		connectivity.  Requested by several people.
5958	Log sending info.  It's not clear this is a good idea.
5959	CONFIG: fix typo in mailertable code.  Noted by Phil Brandenberger
5960		of Swarthmore.
5961	CONFIG: add confDAEMON_OPTIONS and confFALLBACK_MX to set options
5962		O and V, respectively.
5963
59646.46/6.21	93/03/26
5965	Fix botch in server SMTP that broke transactions that did not
5966		use HELO first (like MH).  Fix from Michael Corrigan
5967		of U.C. San Diego.
5968	Fall back to other MX records if there is an error anywhere
5969		in delivery (actually on MAIL or DATA -- RCPT is harder).
5970		Suggested by John Gardiner Myers and Motonori Nakamura.
5971	Revert to non-prototypes -- it turns out that our ANSI C
5972		compiler is more forgiving than most others about
5973		mixing prototyped extern declarations with non-prototyped
5974		function definitions.
5975	Fix a problem with multi-word class matching pointed out by
5976		Neil Rickert.  Given:
5977			CX b a.b.c
5978			R$+ $=X $+	$: $1 < $2 > $3
5979		the input "user@a.b.c" failed instead of being properly
5980		rewritten as "user@a.<b>.c".
5981	Neil also convinced me that it was correct that $~ should match
5982		only one token -- the problem is that it's always possible
5983		to add another token, so $~ matches far too eagerly.
5984
59856.45/6.21	93/03/25
5986	Implement multi-word classes (properly!).
5987
59886.44/6.21	93/03/25
5989	Add X-Authentication-Warning: headers to clue users into possible
5990		attempts to forge mail.  This is on the authwarnings
5991		privacy flag, but is the default.  Suggested by Bryan
5992		Costales of ICSI.
5993	Pass default units for convtime in so they can be more reasonable.
5994	Allow config files to always add a new Comments: header (i.e.,
5995		they will be added even if an old one already exists).
5996		Suggested by Bryan Costales of ICSI.
5997	Allow config files to delete an existing Return-Path: header.
5998		These should only be added at final delivery.  Suggested
5999		by Bryan Costales of ICSI.
6000	Some debugging additions.  Suggested by Bryan Costales of ICSI.
6001	Clean up logging of Family 0 addresses.  Noted by David Muir
6002		Sharnoff and others.
6003	Add a "dequote" map class.  This allows config files to strip
6004		quotes off of addresses.  Note that this is not a builtin
6005		map, just a class -- so you have to define the map
6006		using the K line.
6007	Fix a bug in the queueup() loop getting a locked tf where in
6008		very odd cases it can fall off the bottom and core dump.
6009		Of course, it was P{r Emanuelsson who found it....
6010	Open a new transcript when splitting an envelope.  Problem found
6011		by Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
6012	Improved error output in endmailer if the mailer core dumps.
6013	CONFIG: Fix typo in UUCP mailer definition.
6014	CONFIG: Default several of the new options on: eight bit input,
6015		privacy flags set to "authwarnings", and message warning
6016		set to 4h.
6017	CONFIG: Use dequote map.
6018
60196.43/6.20	93/03/23
6020	Fix problem with assumption of an sa_len field in a generic
6021		sockaddr -- it turns out that most vendors haven't
6022		picked up this (very important) fix.
6023	Change compilation flags for daemon code -- select one or both
6024		of NETINET or NETISO, but don't ever set DAEMON manually.
6025	CONFIG: add FEATURE(mailertable) to do IDA-style mailertables.
6026
60276.42/6.19	93/03/19
6028	Use Postmaster as default fallback return address, not root.
6029	POSIX changes for file descriptor handling.
6030	Diagnose errors writing new queue file.
6031	If you change the owner using an owner- alias, also change the
6032		error mode to EM_MAIL so that errors don't get dropped
6033		into an inappropriate directory.  Problem noted by
6034		Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
6035	If you are su'ed to root, send email as who you really are, not
6036		as root.  From Brian Kantor of U.C. San Diego.
6037	Allow warning messages to be sent after a configurable interval
6038		has passed without delivery.  The message is sent only
6039		once per envelope.  This changes the format of the qf
6040		file to have an F line, and the format of the T option
6041		to accept take the format "return/warn" (both intervals).
6042	Don't force all local names to lower case -- this was left over
6043		from the weird handling of case mapping on aliases.  It
6044		is now driven (as expected) by the "u" mailer flag.
6045		Problem noted by P{r Emanuelsson.
6046	Fix problem that caused headers on returned email to be trashed;
6047		they were getting freed, but are still accessible via
6048		BlankEnvelope.
6049	Fix problem that caused bogus ids to be created on returned
6050		mail.
6051	Add support for ISO and other non-INET networking.  This is by
6052		no means finished yet.  This does assume a lot of other
6053		system support, like a version of gethostbyname that
6054		returns non-AF_INET addresses.
6055	CONFIG: change default on prog mailer to keep upper case in
6056		user names (i.e., in the program command line).
6057	CONFIG: strip trailing dots off of hosts in uucp mailer before
6058		convert to bang format.
6059	CONFIG: create new "relay" mailer for $R (LOCAL_RELAY) and $H
6060		(MAIL_HUB) delivery that doesn't add local domain.  Note
6061		that this violates 821, but is probably "more correct"
6062		for what we are trying to do.  Problem pointed out by
6063		Michael Graff of Iowa State.
6064
60656.41/6.18	93/03/18
6066	Clean up unnecessary creates of queue ids (i.e., empty qf files)
6067		when not needed, such as when starting up an SMTP
6068		connection.
6069	Fix problem where split envelopes aren't instantiated in the queue.
6070		This is quite a serious bug.
6071	Owner- aliases had problems with leading spaces causing a
6072		premature delimitation.
6073
60746.40/6.18	93/03/18
6075	Have ending 250 (after DATA) include the id; suggested by
6076		Brian Kantor of UC San Diego.
6077	Add logging on envelope splitting.
6078	Change queue ids to have one more letter encoding the hour of
6079		the day so that during a single day there is a greater
6080		likelihood of uniqueness; requested by Brian Kantor.
6081
60826.39/6.18	93/03/18
6083	Fix minor compile problem if LOCKF is defined.
6084	Define size of tobuf in conf.h.  Observed by Toshinari Takahashi
6085		of Toshiba.
6086	Restore e_sender -- this is equivalent to e_from.q_paddr without
6087		decorations such as angle brackets and comments.
6088	OSF/1 on Alpha changes from Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
6089	CONFIG: fix typo in S3 for list syntax (;: => :;).  Thanks to
6090		Christopher Hoover for noting the problem.
6091
60926.38/6.17	93/03/17
6093	Pass envelope to disconnect to avoid another use of CurEnv, which
6094		can apparently end up being null at inopportune times.
6095	Log "received from" as "relay=" for consistency (suggested by
6096		John Gardiner Myers).
6097	Fix major bug in header handling:  if no From: line existed in
6098		the header (so sendmail inserts one), and the sender is
6099		an alias that has an owner, the From: line shows the
6100		owner (as well as the envelope).  Fixed by early binding
6101		the headers (which will change debugging output).
6102	HPUX portability patches from Michael J. Corrigan of UC San Diego.
6103	Some attempts to adapt better to out of open file conditions.
6104	Some changes to ctladdr handling in queue files.
6105
61066.37/6.17	93/03/16
6107	MAJOR CHANGE:  delete e_sender and e_returnpath (why are these
6108		different from e_from?) and $< macro.
6109	Log correct IP address in relay= field even if the connection
6110		times out.
6111	Log "received from [RESPONSE]" on EF_RESPONSE messages (from
6112		John Gardiner Myers).
6113	Fixes to SysExMsg logging (sometimes just got "message: %s"
6114		instead of "message: error message"), noted by Eric
6115		Wassenaar.  Also reported by Motonori Nakamura.
6116	Improvements to MX piggybacking code, from Motonori Nakamura.
6117	Fix case where CurHostName points to an auto variable that has
6118		been deallocated (from Motonori Nakamura).
6119	Fix bug causing newlines to be included in aliases if option
6120		"n" (check alias RHS) is set; bug noted by David Muir
6121		Sharnoff.
6122	Fix problem causing user names that should be mapped to lower
6123		case to not be mapped if they are sent during a queue
6124		run.  This greatly simplifies the case mapping code.
6125		Problem noted by Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
6126	Don't do recipient address rewriting in buildaddr.  This
6127		improperly did recipient rewriting on sender addresses,
6128		and just seems bogus in general -- but the change could
6129		break some .cf files.
6130	Pass TZ envariable to child processes for System V.
6131	CONFIG: allow LOCAL_RULE_1 and LOCAL_RULE_2 if you want to
6132		define those rulesets.
6133	KNOWN PROBLEM:  I have seen some problems on SunOS that causes
6134		the User Data Base to give errors on some addresses.  I
6135		have tracked the problem back at least as far as 93.02.15
6136		(version 6.22).  Running with debugging on makes it
6137		go away, so I conclude that it is referencing uninitialized
6138		stack data.  I haven't been able to track this down yet.
6139
61406.36/6.16	93/03/08
6141	Allow local mailer to specify $@host -- this lets you assign the
6142		"foo" part of jgm+foo to $h for passing in to the local
6143		mailer.
6144	Additional debug printing in getcanonname (show query type).
6145	Don't add the e_fromdomain on sender addresses -- this interacts
6146		weirdly with the owner- code.
6147	Improve delivery logging to not log obvious or meaningless stuff.
6148	Include numeric IP address in Received: lines per RFC 1123 section
6149		5.2.8.
6150	Fixed a bug in checking stat() return value if restrictmailq is
6151		set.  Also, check the entire group set instead of just the
6152		primary group.  Both from John Gardiner Myers.
6153	Don't have usrerr automatically print errno, since this is often
6154		misleading.
6155	Use transienterror() in makeconnection after connect() fails and
6156		in openmailer after execve() fails (from Eric Wassenaar).
6157		Also moved transienterror() from util.c to conf.c.
6158	Clean up from= logging on response messages.
6159	Undo patch allowing prescan to return a null vector -- it breaks
6160		too many things.
6161	Config: FEATURE(notsticky) lets you use UDB for everything coming
6162		in to the machine, even if it is specifically targetted
6163		to this machine.  Without it, UDB is bypassed if the user
6164		name is fully qualified.
6165	Config: fix another minor botch with <> (local mailer wasn't
6166		mapping them properly).
6167
61686.35/6.15	93/03/05
6169	Fix getrealhostname to return null if sinlen <= 0 -- this can
6170		occur if stdin is a pipe.
6171	Avoid infinite loop in getcanonname if name server return
6172		NO_DATA (for example).
6173	Config: avoid having C flag qualify list syntax and error syntax.
6174
61756.34/6.14	93/03/05
6176	Fix logging in deliver to not pass too many parameters to Ultrix
6177		versions of syslog.
6178	Don't write the pid file until after the daemon has actually
6179		opened and conditioned the connection.
6180	Consider addresses "different" if their q_uids differ (so that
6181		two users forwarding to the same program will be seen
6182		as different, rather than the same).
6183	Fix problem with bad parameters in main() -- they set ExitStat
6184		but don't exit.
6185	Fix null pointer references through RealHostName -- painfully
6186		discovered by Allan E Johannesen of WPI.
6187	Fix bug causing user@@localhost to core dump (yuch).
6188	Config: don't put two @host.dom.ain on users in $=E in SMTP
6189		mailer.  Also, catch user@ (no host) in ruleset 0.
6190
61916.33/6.13	93/03/03
6192	Config: add confCW_FILE as the name of the cw configuration file
6193		(defaults to /etc/sendmail.cw).  From P{r Emanuelsson.
6194	Allow prescan to return a pointer to an empty list -- this is
6195		not an error.  Also, clean up error reporting to avoid
6196		double errors (prescan reports once, then the caller
6197		reports again).
6198	Changes to avoid trusting T_ANY queries -- run them, but if you
6199		don't get the info you expected, do T_A and T_MX queries
6200		anyhow.  This also fixes an oversight where _res.options
6201		bits were being ignored.
6202	If PRIV_NOVRFY is set, use 252 response code instead of 502 per
6203		RFC 1123 section 5.2.3.  It's not 100% clear that this
6204		is correct, but it probably works better with stupid
6205		mailers that do a VRFY and only check the first digit.
6206
62076.32/6.12	93/03/02
6208	Fix uninitialized variable "protocol" in smtp code.
6209	Include <unistd.h> in sendmail.h -- move towards POSIX/ANSI.
6210	Additional hooks for RFC 1427 (ESMTP SIZE extension).  This
6211		includes requiring that enoughspace() know the system
6212		block size, which will undoubtedly break most ports.
6213	Trace flag 19 in use for srvrsmtp.c.
6214	Additional logging -- notably the sending mailer name.  This
6215		also changes the delivery logging to strict field=value
6216		syntax.
6217	Fix some problems with messages getting sent even to addresses
6218		that had been marked bad -- from Eric Wassenaar.
6219	More WIDE changes: accept host name inside [...] as non-MXed
6220		host.  This is intended ONLY for use inside firewalled
6221		environments, where the MX points at the gateway.
6222	Change .cf file conventions so that mapping for <> addresses
6223		don't have an @ in them (to avoid confusing the C mailer
6224		flag).  Pointed out by Neil Rickert.
6225	Config extensions for Sam Leffler's FlexFAX software.
6226
62276.31/6.10	93/02/28
6228	Fix some more bugs in alias owner code -- there were some weird
6229		cases where an error in a non-aliased name would override
6230		the return info in an aliased name with an owner.
6231	Changes from WIDE Project, forwarded to me by Motonori Nakamura:
6232		Log actual delivery host (after MX et al); from
6233			yasuhiro@dcl.co.jp.
6234		Log daemon startup.
6235		Deliver Postmaster copies without a body.
6236		Better logging of SMTP senders.
6237		Send all program email as daemon even when local.
6238	As requested in various forms from many people, accept -qIstring
6239		to limit queue runs to jobs with queue-id matching string.
6240		Similarly for -qRstring for recipients, -qSstring for
6241		senders.
6242	Initial hooks for ESMTP support (see RFC 1425).
6243	Fixed a syntax error in the UUCP mailer specification that caused
6244		core dumps on startup.
6245	Check for missing A= or P= arguments in mailer definitions.
6246
62476.30/6.10	93/02/27
6248	Require FROZENCONFIG compilation flag to include frozen
6249		configuration code.  Frozen configuration is really
6250		not a very good idea any more, particularly in shared
6251		library environments.
6252	Do better checking of errno after opens of :include: and .forward
6253		files to defer delivery on network and other transient
6254		errors.  Suggestion from Craig Everhart.
6255	Fix minor botch in read timeout macro processing.
6256	Add FEATURE(nouucp) to config files for sites that know absolutely
6257		nothing about UUCP.
6258	Add built cf files to distribution tape and clarify how to build
6259		them if you don't have the Berkeley make.
6260	Some sizeof(long) portability changes for the Alpha, from Allan
6261		E Johannesen.
6262	Add "restrictmailq" privacy flag -- if set, only people in the same
6263		group as your queue directory can print the queue.  If you
6264		set this, be sure you also restrict access to log files....
6265	Fix another bug in owner-list stuff that can cause data files to
6266		be "lost".
6267	Fix a bug with queue runs that cause forwards to yourself to go
6268		into alias/forwarding loops.  I'm still iffy about this
6269		fix.
6270	Fix from Eric Wassenaar for suppression of return message code.
6271
62726.29/6.9	93/02/24
6273	Fix yet another problem in alias owner code -- put the wrong return
6274		address on the enclosed return-to-sender letter.
6275
62766.28/6.9	93/02/24
6277	Fix botch in alias owner code that caused it to not operate if the
6278		error was detected locally.
6279
62806.27/6.9	93/02/24
6281	M_LOCAL => M_LOCALMAILER to avoid conflict with Ultrix include
6282		file <sys/mount.h>.
6283	Miscellaneous bug fixes from Eric Wassenaar:
6284		sendmail -bv -t logs the from line even though in verify
6285			mode only.
6286		sendmail -v can go into queue mode if shouldqueue returns
6287			TRUE.
6288	Add route-addr pruning per RFC 1123 section 5.3.3.  This can be
6289		disabled using the "R" option.
6290	Delete (always undocumented) -R flag (save original recipients);
6291		there are ways to syslog(3) these now.
6292	Clean up SMTP reply codes -- specify them as needed in the code,
6293		instead of in conf.c -- this was needed during the NCP to
6294		TCP transition, but seems silly now.  This also changes
6295		parameters to message and nmessage.
6296	Have mailstats read the .cf file to find the sendmail.st file and
6297		get text versions of mailer names.  An initial version of
6298		this code was provided by Tuominen Keijo (although the
6299		comments indicate the good bits were written by "E.V.").
6300	Add yet more System V compatibility hacks.
6301	Fix bug in VRFY code (assumes everything must be a local user).
6302	Allow specification of any of the hard-wired pathnames in the
6303		Makefile.
6304	Delete concept of "trusted users" -- this really didn't provide
6305		any security anyway, and caused some problems.
6306	Delete last vestige of support for the word "at" as an equivalent
6307		to the character "@".
6308	Propagate owner-foo alias information into the envelope sender.
6309		Based on code from John Gardiner Myers.  This is a major
6310		semantic change -- beware!
6311	Allow $@ on LHS to indicate "match zero" -- this is used to match
6312		the null expression.
6313
63146.26/6.8	93/02/21
6315	Don't "lose" queue runs.  Very important fix from (who else?)
6316		Eric Wassenaar.
6317	Completely reset state on RSET command -- from Eric Wassenaar.
6318	Send error messages and return receipts using an envelope sender
6319		of <> regardless of the setting of $n.  Rewriting rules
6320		can undo this if they feel the necessity, as might be
6321		needed for networks that don't understand the syntax.
6322		This is permitted by RFC 821 section 3.6 and required by
6323		RFC 1123 section 5.3.3.  THIS REQUIRES VERSION 4 CONFIG
6324		FILES because the rulesets must be able to parse <>
6325		properly.
6326	Don't ever send error messages to "<>" -- they will get sent to
6327		the local postmaster or dumped in /usr/tmp/dead.letter
6328		instead.  Per RFC 1123 section 5.3.3.
6329	Explicitly check for email to yourself as a dotted quad.  You
6330		have to call $[ [ ... ] $] to get this.
6331	Up the message timeout to five days per RFC 1123 section 5.3.1.1.
6332	Make all read timeouts individually configurable, as strongly
6333		recommended by RFC 1123 section 5.3.2.
6334	Use f_bavail (blocks available to regular users) instead of f_bfree
6335		(blocks available to superuser) in free block checks.
6336	Change $d macro to be the current time, not the origination time,
6337		since this is consistent with how it is used now.
6338	Generalization of enoughspace from Eric Wassenaar covering
6339		SGI, Apollo, HPUX, Ultrix, and SunOS.
6340	Ignore process group signals -- some front ends can do this if
6341		you kill a window too quickly.  From Eric Wassenaar.
6342	Change umask to 022.
6343
63446.25/6.8	93/02/20
6345	Close all cached connections before calling mailers and after
6346		forking for delivery (caused double closes which resulted
6347		in false errors).
6348	Add FEATURE(redirect) in config files -- this allows you to alias
6349		old addresses to a pointer to the new address that will
6350		give a 551 error message, but not deliver the mail.
6351	Some code changes to make the 551 errors look pretty.
6352	Names of M4 program paths in config files have changed -- they
6353		are all XXX_MAILER_PATH now, to match XXX_MAILER_FLAGS.
6354	Fix a bug in the QSELFREF code having to do with empty .forward
6355		files, reported by Eric Wassenaar.
6356	Add option "p" (privacy flags); this allows you to tune how
6357		picky the SMTP server will be.  This also adds the
6358		confPRIVACY_FLAGS M4 macro in the config files.
6359	Add option "b" (minimum blocks free).  If there are fewer than
6360		this number of blocks free on the filesystem containing
6361		the queue directory, the SMTP MAIL command will return
6362		a 452 response and ask you to try again later.  This
6363		also adds the confMIN_FREE_BLOCKS M4 macro in the config
6364		files.
6365	Made VRFY just verify (doesn't expand aliases and .forward files);
6366		EXPN does full expansion.  RCPT in queue-only mode also
6367		doesn't chase aliases and .forward.
6368
63696.24/6.7	93/02/19
6370	Increase the number of domain search entries in domain.c to allow
6371		for the extra "" entry indicating the root domain.
6372		Reported by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto U.
6373	Add a "SMART_HOST" in the configs for UUCP-connected sites that
6374		want to forward all mail with extra "@"s to that site.
6375		Also allows SMART_HOST, LOCAL_RELAY, and MAIL_HUB to
6376		be specified as ``mailer:hostname'' to use an alternate
6377		mailer.
6378	Clarified and updated some wording in the Operations Guide.
6379	Add the "c" mailer flag -- this suppresses all comment parts of
6380		addresses (requested by John Curran of NEARnet).
6381	Have -v print prompts in -bt mode even if stdin is not a terminal
6382		(default behavior is to be silent if not reading from
6383		a terminal).  Suggested by Bryan Costales, ICSI.
6384	Move the metacharacters from C0 space (\001-\037) into C1 space
6385		(\201-\237).  This also fixes a bunch of potential bugs
6386		with G1 characters (\240-\276) in headers relating to
6387		negative numbers passed to isspace() et al.
6388	Add YP_LAST_MODIFIED and YP_MASTER_NAME to DBM version of alias
6389		database if YPCOMPAT is #defined.  Enhancement from
6390		Takahiro Kanbe of Fuji Xerox Information Systems Co., Ltd.
6391	Add "list" Precedence (-30); this can be used with old sendmails
6392		which will map to precedence 0 (which will return error
6393		messages).  Suggested by Stephen R. van den Berg.
6394	Many bug fixes from Eric Wassenaar of the National Institute for
6395			Nuclear and High-Energy Physics, Amsterdam:
6396		Clear timeouts properly on open failures in include().
6397		Don't dereference through NULL if no home directory found.
6398		Re-establish SIGCHLD signal on System 5 in reapchild().
6399		Avoid NULL pointer reference on -pFOO flag.
6400		Properly handle backslash escapes in comments.
6401		Correctly check reply status on SMTP NOOP command.
6402		Properly save SMTP error message if peer gives
6403			"Service Shutting Down" message.
6404		Avoid writing to the transcript if it couldn't be opened.
6405		Signal errors in SMTP children to parent properly.
6406	Handle self references in a list more globally (include a
6407		QSELFREF bit in the address flags).  This enhancement
6408		was suggested by Eric Wassenaar.
6409	Use initgroups() in hpux, even though it's System-V based.  The
6410		HASINITGROUPS compile flag can set this on other systems.
6411		This HPUX behavior was pointed out by Eric Wassenaar.
6412
64136.23/6.6	93/02/16
6414	Clean up handling of LogLevel to make it easier to figure out
6415		what's on what level.
6416	Change log levels to have some consistency:
6417		1    serious system failures, security problems
6418		2    lost communications, protocol failures
6419		3    other serious failures
6420		4    minor errors
6421		5    message collection
6422		6    vrfy logging, creation of return-to-sender
6423		7    delivery failures
6424		8    delivery successes
6425		9    delivery tempfails (queue ups)
6426		10   database expansion
6427		>64  debugging
6428	Allow IDA-style separated processing on S= and R= in Mailer
6429		definition lines.  Note that rulesets 1 and 2 are
6430		still used for both addresses as before.  Bruce Lilly
6431		gave a convincing argument that RFC976 insists on
6432		this behavior.
6433	Added some time zones to arpatounix -- they may not be in the
6434		standards, but they are in use.  However, I may delete
6435		arpatounix entirely -- there appears to be no reason
6436		for it to exist.
6437	Change to UUCP mailer (in cf directory) to try to do a saner job.
6438		I'm still not certain about this mailer in general.
6439
64406.22/6.5	93/02/15
6441	Fix bug that prevents saving letters in ~/dead.letter.
6442	Don't add angle brackets in VRFY command if angle brackets already
6443		exist in the address.
6444	Fix bogus error message in udbexpand.
6445	Null terminate host buffers in buildaddr (broken in 6.21) --
6446		IMPORTANT FIX!!
6447
64486.21/6.5	93/02/15
6449	Fix another incorrect error message in alias.c, found by Azuma
6450		Okamoto.
6451	Fix a couple of problems in the more-configurable config files,
6452		found by Tom Ivar Helbekkmo.
6453	Fix problem with quoted :include: entries.
6454	Don't duplicate the filename on verbose printing of .forward and
6455		:include: contents.
6456	Extend size of prescan buffer (to allow bigger addresses).  Also,
6457		detect some buffer overflows.
6458	Log user SMTP protocol errors (log level 4).
6459
64606.20/6.4	93/02/14
6461	Fix another problem in the MCI state machine caused when there
6462		were errors generated from the other end to commands
6463		other than RCPT.
6464
64656.19/6.4	93/02/14
6466	Include load average support for DEC Alpha running OSF/1.
6467	Fix multiple-response problem with errors in MAIL From: line.
6468	Fix SMTP reply codes for invalid address syntaxes (give 501;
6469		never give multiple error messages for a single message).
6470	Fix problem where a cached connection timeout rejects all
6471		later connects to that host.
6472	Fix incorrect error message if alias.c is compiled with DBM only.
6473	Additional changes to fix nested conditionals (from Bruce Lilly).
6474	Recover more gracefully from operating system failures, particularly
6475		NULL returns from openmailer (from Noritoshi Demizu,
6476		OMRON Corporation).
6477	Log forward, alias, and userdb expand operations on log level 10;
6478		concept suggested by P{r (Pell) Emanuelsson.
6479	Changes for HPUX 8.07 compatibility.
6480
64816.18/6.4	93/02/12
6482	Allow any config option to be set using an M4 define.
6483	Change UNAME compile flag to HASUNAME for IDA compatibility
6484		(besides, it's a better name).
6485	Note in README that on SunOS it must be linked -Bstatic.
6486	Fairly major change in domain.c to handle wildcard MX records
6487		more rationally.  NOTE: the "w" option (no wildcard MX
6488		records match local domain) has been eliminated.
6489	Fix some unset variable references pointed out by Bruce Lilly.
6490	Fix host name in process titles when using cached connection.
6491
64926.17/6.3	93/01/28
6493	Fix System 5 compatibility changes to be compatible with the rest
6494		of the world.
6495
64966.16/6.3	93/01/28
6497	Experimental fix for problem handling errors in the SMTP
6498		protocol in conjunction with connection caching.
6499	System 5 compatibility changes.
6500
65016.15/6.3	93/01/26
6502	Fix a bug that causes local mail delivered using -odq to be
6503		eliminated as a duplicate (because it matched the
6504		ctladdr, now passed in as a C line).  These changes
6505		are pretty tricky......
6506
65076.14/6.3	93/01/25
6508	Add debugging for some MCI errors.
6509
65106.13/6.3	93/01/22
6511	Fix -e compatibility flag to take a value.
6512	Fix a couple of minor compilation warnings on Sun cc.
6513	Improve error messages in a few cases to be more self-explanatory.
6514
65156.12/6.3	93/01/21
6516	Fix yet-another problem with environment handling, pointed out
6517		by Yoshitaka Tokugawa and Tom Ivar Helbekkmo.
6518	Some heuristics to try to limit resource exhaustion problems
6519		if a downstream host has been down for a long time.
6520	Fix problem with incorrect host name being logged in "Connection
6521		timed out" messages (from Tom Ivar Helbekkmo).
6522	Fix some ANSI C problems (from Takahiro Kanbe).
6523	Properly log message sender on returned mail during queue run.
6524	Count number of recipients properly.
6525	Fix a problem in yp map code.
6526	Diagnose "message timed out" (from Motonori Nakamura).
6527
65286.11/6.3	93/01/20
6529	Fix problem with address delimitor inside quotes.
6530	Define $k and $=k to be the UUCP name (from the uname call)
6531		based on code from Bruce Lilly.
6532
65336.10/6.2	93/01/18
6534	Implement arpatounix (largely code from Bruce Lilly).
6535	Log more info (suggested by John Myers).
6536	Allow nested $?...$|...$. (inspired by code from Bruce Lilly of
6537		Sony US).
6538	POSIX compatibility (noted by Keith Bostic).
6539	Handle SMTP MAIL command errors properly (urged by several people,
6540		notably John Myers of CMU).
6541	Do early diagnosis of .cf errors (notably referencing a RHS
6542		substitution that isn't on the LHS).
6543	Adjust checkpointing to better handle batched recipients, suggested
6544		by John Myers.
6545	Fix miscellaneous bugs.
6546	(config files:)  Implement MAIL_HUB for all local mail (to handle
6547		NFS-mounted directories) as urged by Tom Ivar Helbekkmo
6548		of the Norwegian School of Economics.
6549
65506.9/6.1 	93/01/13
6551	Environment handling simplification/bug fix -- child processes
6552		get a minimal, fixed environment.  This avoids different
6553		behavior in queue runs.
6554	Handle commas inside comments properly.
6555	Properly limit large messages submitted in -obq mode.
6556
65576.8/6.1		93/01/10
6558	Check mtime of thaw file against .cf and sendmail binary, based on
6559		code from John Myers.
6560
65616.7/6.1		93/01/10
6562	MX piggybacking, based on code from John Myers@CMU.
6563	Allow checkcompat to return -1 to mean tempfail.
6564	Bug fix in m_mno computation.
6565
65666.6/6.1		93/01/09
6567	Tuning of queueing functions as recommended by John Gardiner Myers.
6568	Return mail headers (no body) on messages with negative precedence.
6569	Minor other bug fixes.
6570
65716.5/6.1		93/01/03
6572	Fix botch causing queued headers to have ?XX? prefixes.
6573
65746.4/6.1		93/01/02
6575	Changes to recognize special mailer types (e.g., file) early.
6576
65776.3/6.1		93/01/01
6578	Pass timeouts to sfgets.
6579	Check for control characters in addresses.
6580	Fixed deferred error reporting.
6581	Report duplicate aliases.
6582	Handle mixed case recursive aliases.
6583	Misc bug fixes.
6584
65856.2/6.1		92/12/30
6586	Put return-receipt-to on a conf.c flag (but don't set it).
6587	Fix minor syslog problem.
6588
