- Known Critical Problems/Required Enhancements:
-
- ** It's POSSIBLE (but I can't prove it) that there are still buffer
- management problems in 1.3. The *.au guys are still reporting problems
- that look like it, but the problems are intermittent and non-reproducible.
-
- Bugs, but not critical:
-
- ** SMTPpost detects mail loops, but doesn't do anything but log a message on
- the problem.
-
- ** SMTPd doesn't update the mail identifier. Its always AA01.
-
- ** SMTPd/SMTPpost don't recognize alternate hostnames as being local. That
- is, alternates as defined in inet:db/hosts (or the equivalent for AmiTCP).
-
- ** ReturnToSender() isn't done as often as it should be. For:
-
- invalid users (by result from Checkuser)
- invalid users (by screwy characters in name)
- timeouts (7 days in queue, or whatever)
-
- ** SMTPpost doesn't know Return-Receipt-To:
-
- ** Queueing problems.
-
- Enhancements:
-
- ** Queueing NNTPpost (part of NNTPd?).
-
- ** Use syslog() for all SMTP commands.
-
- ** Different debug levels
-
- ** Allow multiple SMTPposts to be active at a time (as started from SMTPd)
-
- ** Have SMTPd re-scan the spool after an incoming connection closes.
-
- ** Add support for MailPaths file to NNTPpost
-
- ** Track crossposts in NNTPXfer.
- my newsreader does - it caches article id's, and throws out any
- articles it's seen before when it first scans a newsgroup. Same idea -
- you'd get duplicates of crossposted articles that arrived between
- scanning the first group posted to in active and any later ones, but
- that's it. Doing frequent nntpxfers would cut down on that, even.
