- many local IP addresses. tnx MD. fix: ipme_init() now
- dynamically allocates space, up to 200000 bytes, as long as
- SIOCGIFCONF keeps failing. note that this is a very widespread
- bug; it's in amd, exim, mrouted, named, nntpd, rarpd, sendmail,
- tcpdump, timed, xntpd, and probably dozens more programs.
- 19961117 portability problem: on BSD 4.4 and various other systems,
- SIOCGIFCONF will truncate long lists and return success.
- impact: on those systems, qmail-smtpd and qmail-remote will
- miss some local IP addresses if there are too many. fix:
- ipme_init() now checks whether there is enough space left in
- the buffer for another ifreq, plus 64 bytes JIC. yuck.
- 19961117 change: ipmeprint now flushes only at end.

- other than 1.
- 19961003 portability problem: all pre-4.9.4 versions of bind barf,
- badly, on CNAME queries to lame servers. what a crappy system.
- even if the resolver doesn't barf, the next name server down

- domains that are (1) lame and (2) running old versions of bind.

- 19960926 portability problem: on systems that can handle IP interface
- aliases (i.e., on sa_len systems), SIOCGIFADDR returns the
- primary address for an alias. impact: ipme_init() did not
- include alias addresses. fix: ipme_init() avoids SIOCGIFADDR on
- sa_len systems; on these systems, the address we want is
- already in ifr. tnx DM.
- 19960926 change: qmail-alias kills itself if locking takes longer than
- 30 seconds.

- 19960919 change: eliminated QQX_EXECHARD and QQT_EXECHARD. this means

- here by that name.'' tnx G2A.
- 19960919 change: qmail-remote now includes host name in no-such-host
- messages. tnx G2A.

- 19960915 change: qsutil error messages are now alerts.
- 19960915 portability problem: on some systems, logger appears to use
- syslog(pri,buf) instead of syslog(pri,"%s",buf). tnx JC.
- impact: logger could barf or crash if fed messages containing
- %. an attacker could easily cause a crash, eliminating qmail's
- logs. fix: % is no longer considered safe for logs.

- two spaces on the right before linelen.)
- 19960824 cleanup: renamed token as token822.
- 19960822 portability problem: under NEWS-OS, /bin/mail and /usr/ucb/mail
- invoke sendmail with -E and -J options. tnx TU. impact:

- code. tnx ME.
- 19960818 change: in SECURITY, ``seven most recent sendmail security
- holes'' -> ``eight most recent sendmail security holes.''
- 19960818 change: qmail-pop3d now appends an extra blank line to every
- message, for compatibility with popper. some clients can't
- deal with the right thing, unfortunately. tnx FPL.
- 19960818 change: added qmail-tcpto.
- 19960818 change: eliminated cc -posix for NeXTs. tnx SA.
- 19960818 change: eliminated loadfifo. tnx SA.

- MAILHOST, MAILUSER, MAILNAME. tnx MG.
- 19960812 change: added qmail-showctl.
- 19960812 portability problem: under Solaris 2.4 and possibly other
- systems, the linker does not give generic alignment to an array
- of 4096 chars. tnx JP. impact: some subset of the programs
- would (reliably) die with a bus error; in the Solaris case,
- maildir2mbox. fix: redefine space in alloc.c to be aligned.
- 19960812 change: qmail-remote no longer does CNAME lookups if there's an
- artificial SMTP route. tnx ME.

- 19960811 change: introduced ALIAS_PATERNALISM. configurability requested
- by several people.
- 19960811 change: eliminated go-writability test for qmeox(). the alleged
- value of paternalism is nonexistent if nobody even notices
- you're doing it.
- 19960811 change: in qbiff, changed no-/-allowed to no-/-at-beginning,
- no-dots-allowed, must-be-nonempty. tnx MD.
- 19960811 change: in mbox.5, discouraged mail readers from looking for
- From_ lines only after blank lines. too much crap in the world.
- 19960811 change: added subject line to qreceipt success notices.
- 19960811 change: added subject line to qmail-send bounce messages.
- 19960811 change: qmail-alias now expects dash arg. this finally gives
- lspawn complete control over the local -> ~user/.qmail-ext map.
- 19960811 change: qmail-lspawn passes dash arg to qmail-alias.
- 19960811 change: reorganized qlist acknowledgment format. again.
- 19960811 change: documented EXT, EXT2, EXT3, EXT4. tnx BB.
- 19960810 change: qmail-makectl now copies locals to rcpthosts. should be
- a better default. suggested by TK.
- 19960805 portability problem: new makefile generator put in tabs again.
- sigh. impact: couldn't compile under some systems. fix: same as
- before. tnx TG.
- 19960804 change: added tcpserver instructions to FAQ.
- 19960804 change: reorganized FAQ server instructions into a new section.
- 19960801 qmail 0.90, gamma.
- 19960801 change: qmail-qmtpd now supports rcpthosts, RELAYCLIENT.
- 19960731 change: default NUMD is now 29. this prepares for weird systems
- where getpwnam() needs more than one descriptor (but the
- descriptor limit is still 64! ... you never know), and for
- possible future getpwnam() replacements.
- 19960731 change: popped subfderr buffer up to 32 characters. made sure
- that everybody flushed subfderr as necessary.
- 19960731 change: maildir2qmtp now prints filenames and responses.
- 19960731 change: maildir2smtp now prints filenames it's trying and
- relevant portion of SMTP responses.
- 19960731 change: used succwrite() in maildir2smtp, maildir2qmtp.
- simplifies code quite a bit.
- 19960731 change: qmail-remote's blast() checks sooner for write errors.
- 19960731 change: added better -e option to sendmail. tnx TG.
- 19960731 change: added maildir2qmtp.
- 19960730 cleanup: eliminated die_nomem() in maildir2smtp.c.
- 19960730 change: dns_cname now pretends that "foo." is a CNAME for "foo"
- to give the desired behavior for people who misuse DNS and
- violate RFC 822. tnx RN.
- 19960730 change: dns_cname now tests for empty names and ] on every
- loop.
- 19960730 change: used LSPAWN_BREAK in qmail-send.c for usermap.
- 19960730 change: updated header example in qmail-header.5.

- 19960729 change: improved an error message in qmail-alias.
- 19960729 cleanup: merged qmeox(), qmeodx().
- 19960729 bug: failure to stat .qmail-owner was not an error. impact: if
- stat failed temporarily (e.g., because of NFS), .qmail-owner
- would be incorrectly ignored, so outgoing message would have
- wrong envelope sender. fix: qmail-alias does temp_nfsqmail() if
- stat() returns a temporary error.
- 19960729 change: added RFCOWNER.
- 19960729 change: added qmtpd setup question to FAQ.
- 19960729 change: added qmail-qmtpd.

- impact: TCPREMOTEINFO would always be empty. fix: unset ndelay
- in remoteinfo.c.
- 19960728 bug: if maildir2smtp saw a permanent failure after MAIL, it
- failed to do RSET. impact: all further messages would be
- rejected at the MAIL stage. fix: maildir2smtp now always does
- RSET. tnx JW.
- 19960728 cleanup: qmail-alias now applies lowercase and dot-to-colon
- conversion directly to dashext, leaving everything else alone.
- this works since all .qmail access is factored through dashext.
- 19960727 portability problem: under NeXTStep, -posix is almost entirely
- broken. impact: qmail daemons would dump core under NeXTStep.
- fix: turn off -posix, except for loading qmail-setup, which
- needs mkfifo(); NeXT, bless them, didn't put mkfifo() into the
- C library where it belongs. this requires a new make command,
- namely loadfifo.
- 19960727 change: all characters 33-126 are now considered safe for logs.
- tnx MD.
- 19960727 cleanup: eliminated qp variable from mailforward().
- 19960727 cleanup: maildirwatch.c includes headerbody.h.
- 19960727 cleanup: eliminated match from maildirwatch.c.

- 19960727 cleanup: qmail-lspawn.c now includes str.h, byte.h.
- 19960727 cleanup: qmail-inject.c now includes quote.h.
- 19960727 change: qmail-check now checks separately for group
- readability and other readability.
- 19960727 bug: maildir2smtp didn't check flagehlo in PIPELINING parsing.
- impact: a server that said PIPELINING at any point, not just
- EHLO, would receive pipelined data. fix: check flagehlo.
- 19960727 bug: readsubdir was calling pause(). impact: if a subdirectory
- was removed, qmail-send would hang. fix: use rs->pause().
- 19960727 change: used error_str in qmail-qread.
- 19960727 change: qmail-qread now looks for local/remote open errors.
- 19960727 cleanup: added warn() in qmail-qread.c.

- 19960727 change: added check target to Makefile.
- 19960727 change: replaced qmail-setup with make setup in INSTALL.
- 19960727 change: indirected fake targets through do- targets.
- 19960727 change: added setup target to Makefile.
- 19960727 change: qmail-makectl now makes sure that defaultdomain has
- at least one dot. e.g., enteract.com -> enteract.com, not com.
- 19960726 bug: quote() failed to quote commas. impact: addresses
- containing commas would not have been quoted correctly for
- Return-Path or for SMTP MAIL FROM. fix: quote commas.
- 19960726 change: sendmail now mentions qmail-qread, not qmail-mailq.
- 19960726 change: qmail-alias now expects ext arg. this eliminates
- LSPAWN_BREAK from qmail-alias and gives lspawn almost complete
- control over the local -> ~user/.qmail-ext transformation. the
- exception is that qmail-alias always uses ~user/.qmail,
- ignoring ext, if local is the same as user.
- 19960726 change: qmail-lspawn passes ext to qmail-alias.
- 19960726 change: alloc() now uses up a 4K space before calling malloc().
- 19960726 change: ipalloc allocation base is now 10. 100 was silly.
- 19960726 change: stralloc allocation base is now 30.
- 19960726 change: injectbounce() now supports the owner hack.
- 19960726 change: qmail-smtpd no longer requires HELO. tnx K1J.

- 19960725 change: added elm TMPDIR note to INSTALL.mbox.
- 19960725 change: added pine.conf note to INSTALL.mbox.
- 19960724 change: added fixup note to FAQ.
- 19960724 change: qmail-inject now exits 111 for temporary errors.
- 19960724 change: qmail-smtpd now appends RELAYCLIENT to incoming
- recipient domain names.

- into caller.
- 19960724 change: added rcpthosts wildcards.
- 19960724 change: added clean target to Makefile.

- 19960722 change: qmail-popup now prints APOP timestamp in banner.
- 19960722 change: added hostname argument to qmail-popup.
- 19960722 cleanup: in qmail-popup, split out() into out(), outflush().
- 19960722 cleanup: in qmail-popup, introduced pop3_greet().
- 19960721 portability problem: under Unisys SVR4, hostname is not in the
- usual path. impact: qmail-makectl fails. fix: added hostname
- command here, used it in qmail-makectl.
- 19960721 portability problem: on some sysctl-based systems, apparently
- gethostname() doesn't write anything if the output buffer is
- too small. it should write a truncated name. impact: if anyone
- has a hostname longer than 64 characters, maildirs could get up
- to 64 characters of garbage, rather than a truncated hostname.
- fix: qmail-alias now does *host = 0 before calling gethostname.
- 19960721 change: updated FAQ examples from qsmhook to preline.
- 19960721 change: added preline.
- 19960721 change: qsmhook now uses signal_init, signal_uninit.

- for unparseable header fields.
- 19960720 change: logo is now dolphin. tnx CEJ.
- 19960719 qmail 0.76, beta.
- 19960719 change: used LSPAWN_BREAK in qmail-alias for deciding how to
- handle extensions. this should produce better behavior in the
- (unsupported) case that LSPAWN_BREAK is not a hyphen.
- 19960719 bug: qmail-smtpd didn't check for null arg on MAIL, RCPT.
- impact: qmail-smtpd would deref 0 and crash. fix: qmail-smtpd
- now gives syntax error on null arg.
- 19960719 change: documented UFLINE in qmail-command.8. tnx TG.
- 19960718 change: added maildir2smtp.
- 19960718 cleanup: introduced maildir.c. used it in maildir2mbox.c,
- maildirwatch.c.
- 19960718 change: added maildirwatch.
- 19960718 cleanup: maildir2mbox now sets up pq2 as it is deleting from
- pq, rather than simultaneously with pq.
- 19960718 change: added H_DELIVEREDTO.

- 19960717 change: qmail-alias now appends newline if .qmail does not end
- with a newline. tnx MC.
- 19960717 change: qmail-alias now defers delivery for a blank line only
- if it is the first line of the file. handles user behavior
- described by MC of putting many newlines at end of file.
- 19960717 bug: qmail-inject looked for dots in user part, not just host
- part, when deciding whether to use defaultdomain. impact: the
- address joe.bloggs@here didn't have defaultdomain added. fix:
- qmail-inject now stops at the @.
- 19960717 change: updated INSTALL.alias to mention qmsmac.
- 19960717 change: syntax error code for SMTP is now 501.
- 19960717 change: added -e option to sendmail. tnx TG.

- 19960702 change: qmail-smtpd now accepts HELO without an argument.
- tnx K1J, J1B.
- 19960627 change: qmail-lspawn.8 now mentions that qmail-lspawn doesn't
- set up supplementary groups. tnx TG.
- 19960625 portability problem: under Linux, read(,,0) doesn't do proper
- error slippage. impact: timeoutconn() would always report
- success; if a connection failed, qmail-remote would report a
- greeting failure and skip all further MX records. tnx ME. fix:
- timeoutconn() now uses getpeername() to check for success.
- 19960625 change: qmail-smtpd now mentions disk full for QQT_WRITE.
- 19960625 change: qmail-inject now mentions disk full for QQT_WRITE.

- 19960605 portability problem: under Solaris, /usr/bin/groups incorrectly
- reports your groups in /etc/group, rather than the results of
- getgroups(). tnx MD, PJG. impact: test #19 in INSTALL fails.
- fix: added special note to test #19 (sigh) about Solaris.
- 19960605 change: improved maildir setup commands in INSTALL.mbox.
- 19960605 change: on success, qmail-alias logs forwarding qp. 9 lines
- extra code.
- 19960605 change: qmail-send logs qp for bounce. 6 lines extra code.

- 19960604 change: when it accepts a message, qmail-smtpd includes the
- local time in its 250 response.
- 19960604 change: on success, qmail-alias prints delivery counts,
- file+forward+program.
- 19960603 change: qmail-remote now reports IP address on success. tnx MD.
- 19960603 change: qmail-send now logs success and failure reports, not
- just deferral reports.
- 19960603 change: added netbsd section in find-systype, same as bsd.os
- section. this will affect netbsd-* systypes. tnx MBS.
- 19960530 qmail 0.75, beta.

- 19960525 change: added qmail-popup. tnx RN.
- 19960525 change: added elm filter section to FAQ. tnx GB.
- 19960502 portability problem: on many systems, select() on an
- almost-full pipe incorrectly says writable. tnx ME for running
- into this and helping track it down. impact: if qmail-send
- writes a pipeful to qmail-lspawn or qmail-rspawn before they
- can react (because of high concurrency, high load, or long
- addresses), it will receive an incorrect -1/EAGAIN, and will
- conclude that spawn died. sysadmin will have to restart qmail,
- and messages will be duplicated. fix: in qmail-send.c,
- busy-loop if write() to spawn returns any error other than
- EPIPE.
- 19960501 bug: qmail-alias treated NAMETOOLONG and NOTDIR as temporary
- errors. impact: qmail-alias never looked for -default; even if
- mail was destined to bounce, it would have to time out first.
- fix: qmail-alias now uses error_temp().
- 19960430 bug: qmail-smtpd treated qq crash as permanent error. impact:
- if somebody actively kills qq, mail will be incorrectly
- bounced. tnx SS. fix: qmail-smtpd now treats only TOOLONG and
- EXECHARD as permanent errors.
- 19960430 cleanup: eliminated QQT_TTY from qqtalk.h.
- 19960428 change: added ``warning: '' before trouble-marking message.
- 19960428 change: added percenthack. requested by GB.

- 19960428 cleanup: switched to auto-generated .o dependencies.
- 19960428 cleanup: eliminated fmt.o, scan.o from Makefile.
- 19960428 portability problem: under HP-UX 10, the rc pgrp is sent HUP
- when rc finishes. tnx BG. impact: the qmail daemons are killed
- when rc finishes. fix: added special note in INSTALL (sigh) to
- use csh -cf.
- 19960427 cleanup: added PORT_SMTP in qmail-remote.c.
- 19960427 cleanup: introduced timeoutwrite.c. used it in qmail-remote.c.
- 19960427 cleanup: introduced timeoutread.c. used it in qmail-remote.c.

- first line of a header field doesn't pass hfield_valid. tnx TG.
- 19960427 change: headerbody now prepends MBOX-Line: to any header line

- 19960426 change: added moreinfo arg to qlist and qlist2.
- 19960426 change: added signal_uncatchchild() to qmail-send.c. tnx BG.
- now, if sysadmin sets SIGCHLD to SIG_IGN before invoking
- qmail-send [sigh], qmail-send won't screw up bounce messages.
- 19960426 change: dns_cname now checks whether last character is ],
- rather than whether first character is [, for quick return.
- 19960426 cleanup: glue is now global in dns.c.

- 19960426 change: qmail-start now invokes qmail-send in foreground (as
- parent of other processes).
- 19960426 change: added mailsubj. tnx GAW.
- 19960426 portability problem: under some systems, can't lock read-only
- file. impact: maildir2mbox would always fail on those systems.

- blank lines in .qmail.
- 19960419 change: in qmail-lspawn.c, lowercased name before getpwnam().
- really getpwnam() should do this, but oh well.
- 19960419 change: added username to qmail-lspawn.c, with LSPAWN_USERLEN
- in conf-unusual.h. names longer than LSPAWN_USERLEN will skip
- getpwnam().

- meant to subscribe.
- 19960419 change: reorganized qlist acknowledgment format.

- .qmailext lookups will not.
- 19960414 change: removed case_lowers(r) from qmail-lspawn.c. tnx JLH.
- 19960414 change: moved extension . -> : conversion to just before

- 19960413 change: added procmail instructions to HOWTO.
- 19960409 bug: qmail-alias does not check for newlines when it generates

- illegal, if sender address contains newline followed by
- something other than whitespace. fix: qmail-alias now replaces
- newline with underscore in rpline.
- 19960409 change: added leaf UUCP description to HOWTO. tnx J2K.
- 19960409 change: added -B option to sendmail. tnx OR.

- 19960409 cleanup: in qmail-smtpd, eliminated ssinit() in favor of FDBUF.
- 19960409 bug: qmail-alias produced aliasfoo-owner rather than foo-owner
- as envelope sender for ~alias/.qmailfoo. tnx DS. impact: wrong
- envelope sender whenever ~alias/.qmailfoo-owner existed. fix:
- qmail-alias now checks for hyphen at beginning of extension.
- 19960409 change: added _ESMTP to end of 220. tnx JLH.
- 19960409 change: moved out("\r\n") out of smtp_greet() into callers.
- this improves the flushing behavior on 221.
- 19960328 qmail 0.74, beta.
- 19960326 change: changed subdirectory split from 32 to 23.
- 19960326 portability problem: some versions of make don't understand

- tnx TG.
- 19960325 change: added qmail-mailq.
- 19960325 change: introduced readsubdir.
- 19960325 change: qmail-setup makes split; qmail-check checks split.

- qmail-send.c, qmail-clean.c.
- 19960325 change: in protocol between qmail-clean and qmail-send, now
- using intd/ instead of mess/.

- seems to be down. tnx BP for pressuring me to get this done.
- 19960323 change: in qmail-alias.8, renamed mboxg as mboxrd. tnx RD.
- idea was popularized by RD in June 1995.

- 19960322 change: qbiff now removes the word Subject.
- 19960322 change: now /bin/true instead of /dev/null in the generic
- INSTALL.ids instructions. tnx JPR.
- 19960322 change: added hfield_skipname(). tnx RN.
- 19960322 bug: qmail-inject did not check whether USER needed quoting.
- impact: if USER had weird characters, the From address would
- generally be wrong, unless the user manually set up MAILUSER
- with proper quoting. fix: qmail-inject sets up a quoted-string
- if necessary.
- 19960322 cleanup: separated out quote_need() in quote.c.
- 19960322 cleanup: added stralloc_catb.c. used it in qmail-alias.c,
- qmail-send.c.
- 19960322 change: qmail-send now uses a quadratic retry schedule from
- birth of each message. this also eliminates clustering.
- 19960322 cleanup: separated out nextretry() in qmail-send.c.
- 19960322 change: qmail-remote now passes all non-@ addresses through
- without comment, not just <> and <#>.
- 19960322 change: replaced # test with anything@[] test in qmail-inject.
- 19960322 change: replaced # with #@[] in qlist.c, qmail-alias.c,
- qmail-send.c, qreceipt.c.
- 19960322 change: qmail-lspawn no longer discards messages to <#>.
- 19960322 cleanup: in qlist, used str_diff for <> and <#> tests.
- 19960322 change: qmail-alias is now back to testing envelope sender for
- <> and <#>, rather than things without an @.
- 19960321 change: added 8BITMIME support to qmail-smtpd.
- 19960321 change: added ESMTP support to qmail-smtpd.

- 19960318 change: added HCMSSC support to qmail-smtpd.c.
- 19960317 portability problem: SCO requires -lsocket -lnsl. impact:
- couldn't compile under SCO. fix: added SCO section in
- make-cmds.sh. tnx JPR. note that this is for OSR 5; 3.2v4.2
- will need more fixes, and old 3.2 is basically hopeless.
- 19960317 bug: newfield_datemake would leave newfield_date alone if it
- was already initialized, even though qmail-send calls
- newfield_datemake anew for each bounce. impact: bounce messages
- would usually have an incorrect Date field. fix: redid
- newfield_datemake to update newfield_date each time.
- 19960317 change: allowed . and @ in 822 phrases; 822 doesn't allow them,
- but they do show up. tnx to the DRUMS group.
- 19960317 change: replaced GMT with +0000 in date822fmt.c. this confuses
- a few versions of getdate(), but the DRUMS group is going to
- outlaw GMT, not just recommend against it as in 1123.
- 19960317 change: redefined ALIAS_EMPTY to take advantage of . for file
- deliveries. tnx RN.
- 19960317 change: qmail-alias now allows . as well as / to start file
- deliveries. tnx RN.
- 19960317 change: qmail-alias now dies (soft) if .qmail is writable to
- others, rather than silently ignoring it.
- 19960317 change: qmail-alias now dies (soft) if flagforwardonly is
- violated, rather than silently ignoring the bad instructions.
- 19960317 change: qmail-alias now ignores x bit on empty .qmail files.
- 19960317 bug: if RCPT gave 4xx and DATA gave 5xx, qmail-rspawn would
- incorrectly assign a permanent failure to that recipient.
- impact: in that case, mail would be incorrectly bounced. fix:
- remove orr > 0 test from qmail-rspawn.c.
- 19960310 change: tcp-env now uses signal_uninit(). [sigh]
- 19960310 change: tcp-env now specifically unsets HOST and INFO if they
- are not applicable. just trying to make it more widely usable.
- 19960310 cleanup: used byte_* in remoteinfo.c, ipme.c, tcp-env.c.
- 19960310 cleanup: added readwrite.h, eliminated sys.h.
- 19960310 cleanup: included byte.h in qmail-send.c.

- direntry.h; auto-hasdrent.h is gone.
- 19960303 change: tryflock.c now includes <sys/types.h>, for consistency
- with lock.c. may affect portability.
- 19960302 portability problem: under BSDI, can't set sticky on normal
- files. dorks. impact: the new qlist doesn't work under BSDI;
- be glad I test things before release. fix: qmail-alias and
- qlist now use executable instead of sticky.
- 19960302 change: gfrom now quotes >From and >>From etc. as well as From;
- in other words, I'm switching from mbox format to mboxg format.
- 19960302 cleanup: added gfrom.c. used it in qmail-alias.c, maildir2mbox.c.
- 19960302 change: addbounce() now substitutes \n\n -> \n/ in reports,
- and \n -> _ in recips. thus bounces can now be reliably parsed.
- 19960302 change: if qmail-send had trouble reading the original message
- or the list of addresses for a bounce, it used to give up and
- send a bounce with "Oh no! I had trouble reading the rest of
- your message" or some such. now it aborts the bounce attempt
- and tries again later.
- 19960302 cleanup: added qqtalk_fail(). used it in qmail-alias.c,
- qmail-smtpd.c.
- 19960302 bug: if mailforward() had trouble reading message (e.g.,
- because of an I/O error), it marked an error but kept reading.
- impact: could loop forever. fix: upon error, break.
- 19960302 change: maildir2mbox now scans (restrictively) for return-path.
- 19960302 change: qbiff now prints subject and body, up to 74 chars.

- but it's waiting for some deliveries. tnx RN.
- 19960301 change: qmail-alias -n now continues (with warning) if home
- directory is sticky. tnx RN.
- 19960301 change: improved usage messages in qmail-alias.c. tnx RN.

- 19960301 cleanup: eliminated flagsuccesses from qmail-alias.c.
- 19960301 change: added usermap.
- 19960301 bug: failure to append to mbox was a permanent error. impact:
- if mbox was temporarily unopenable (e.g., because fds were
- low), mail would be incorrectly bounced. fix: failure is now
- temporary. tnx DS.
- 19960229 change: qmail-alias now preserves any envelope sender that
- doesn't contain an @, not just <> and <#>.
- 19960229 cleanup: revamped byte_* interface.
- 19960229 cleanup: renamed str_cpy as str_copy.
- 19960229 cleanup: added str_chr.c. used it in qbiff.c, qmail-smtpd.c.

- qmail-remote.c.
- 19960229 cleanup: added byte_rchr.c. used it in qmail-smtpd.c, spawn.c.
- 19960229 cleanup: used USEREXT instead of RECIPIENT in qsmhook.c.

- 19960229 cleanup: removed j and k from rewrite() in qmail-send.c.
- 19960229 portability problem: under HP-UX 10 and Solaris 2.5, can't
- setgroups()/setgid() to the system's nogroup/nobody gid. dorks.
- impact: inetd chokes, so all SMTP connections are rejected; and
- ``alias'' mail, including postmaster, bounces. fix: in
- INSTALL.ids, set up a separate powerless gid (tentatively
- ``nofiles'') for qmaild and alias. tnx DS and PJG.
- 19960229 change: qreceipt now uses qqtalk rather than qmail-inject.
- 19960229 change: qlist now uses qqtalk rather than qmail-inject.
- 19960229 change: incorporated qmail-setup patch from RN for better
- error messages.
- 19960228 change: added LSPAWN_BREAK in conf-unusual.h; used it in
- lspawn.c. configurability requested by PJG.
- 19960228 portability problem: on several systems, including everything
- from DEC, select() on a pipe reader returns 1 if there aren't
- any writers yet. pointed out by DS. impact: qmail-send chewed
- up lots of CPU time. fix: trigger_set() now opens the pipe for
- writing after opening it for reading. also added trynpbg1; on
- working systems, no point in wasting the extra fd.
- 19960228 change: qmail-alias uses .qmail sticky bit for forwardonly.
- 19960228 change: qlist now sets sticky bit on .qmail file.
- 19960228 change: un-documented +list.
- 19960228 portability problem: on HP-UX and possibly other systems, the
- supplementary group list does not include the gid. pointed out
- by DS. impact: on those systems, tryshsgr could incorrectly set
- hasshsgr; this would prevent qmail-send from running. fix: if
- tryshsgr sees that getgroups() returns 0, now it actively sets
- up a supplementary group list. added chkshsgr to make sure the
- setgroups() will work.
- 19960227 cleanup: eliminated GETSHORT in dns.c in favor of getshort().
- 19960227 cleanup: deleted h->len < 3 test from qlist.c:dobody. tnx RN.

- out by RN.
- 19960227 change: added 2 bytes of slop in alloc().
- 19960227 bug: received_setup() was not allowing space for the final \0.
- impact: none; the line length is always between 65 and 75
- characters, which gives at least 45 characters of slop with
- existing malloc() implementations. fix: leave space. tnx NH.
- note that the bug here is really in fmt_strncpy, which was
- written before i was truly free of the curse of libc.a.
- 19960227 change: added ALIAS_EMPTY in conf-unusual.h; used it in
- qmail-alias.c. tnx PJG.
- 19960227 change: added SPAWN_NUMD in conf-unusual.h; used it in spawn.c.
- 19960227 change: added conf-unusual.h.
- 19960227 cleanup: replaced sizeof(short) with 2 in dns.c.
- 19960227 portability problem: on an Alpha, long is 64 bits. pointed out

- Alpha; qmail-makectl and qmail-remote failed. fix: replaced
- sizeof(long) with 4 in dns.c.
- 19960227 portability problem: on an Alpha, bzero() is declared properly
- via sys/time.h. impact: couldn't compile on an Alpha. fix:
- removed bzero() declaration from select.h. tnx DS.
- 19960227 portability problem: under SCO, sys/file.h is not protected.
- impact: couldn't compile under SCO. fix: include sys/types.h in
- lock.c. tnx RN.
- 19960219 change: added some .qmail-list hints to qlist.1.
- 19960219 change: added +list support to qmail-alias.
- 19960215 change: added THANKS.
- 19960212 bug: foo was not initialized in qrelay.c. impact: depends on
- the machine; on some machines, no effect; on other machines,
- guaranteed core dump. fix: initialized foo. tnx DS.
- 19960209 qmail 0.72, beta.
- 19960209 change: qmail-alias now replaces dot, not slash, with colon.
- also, qmeopen() makes sure that .qmail file is S_IFREG; I hope
- this doesn't cause portability problems.
- 19960209 change: added success-reporting procedure to INSTALL.
- 19960208 change: added VERSION.
- 19960208 change: added qlist2.

- 19960208 cleanup: included substdio.h in qqtalk.h.
- 19960207 bug: prioq_delmin() wasn't guaranteeing heap structure on the
- last element. impact: scheduled passes could have been delayed,
- conceivably as long as half an hour. fix: prioq_delmin() now
- checks when it can safely move the last element.
- 19960207 change: added maildirmake.1, maildir2mbox.1.
- 19960206 change: revised logo paragraph in THOUGHTS.
- 19960206 change: replaced nowhere.org with nowhere.mil in examples.
- nowhere.org is a real domain... [sigh]
- 19960206 change: added qreceipt.1.
- 19960206 portability problem: IRIX doesn't have vfork. pointed out by
- DS. impact: couldn't compile under IRIX. fix: added fork.h,
- tryvfork.c.
- 19960206 portability problem: IRIX doesn't have ranlib. pointed out by
- DS. impact: couldn't compile under IRIX. fix: added IRIX
- section in make-cmds.sh.
- 19960205 cleanup: removed warning from substdio_copy() documentation; in
- fact, substdio_copy() can be used safely on a fed substdio.
- 19960205 change: added qbiff.1.
- 19960204 change: implemented localnet. removed relevant paragraph from
- THOUGHTS. tnx IS.

- being owned by root.
- 19960130 cleanup: in qlist.c, renamed flagremoved as flagwasthere.
- 19960130 bug: qmail-send did not pay attention to flagexitasap in
- pass_dochan(). impact: qmail-send would happily start new
- deliveries even if it wanted to exit. fix: qmail-send now
- returns immediately in pass_selprep() and pass_dochan() if
- flagexitasap.
- 19960130 change: in qlist.c and qlist.1, renamed ext as list.
- 19960130 change: in qlist.c and qlist.1, renamed manager as owner.

- 19960129 bug: comment was not allowed in ``phrase (comment) <route>'';
- pointed out by RN. impact: some correct address lists could be
- mis-parsed by qmail-inject or qlist. fix: token.c now allows
- TOKEN_COMMENT in the appropriate scan.
- 19960128 change: added a logo paragraph to THOUGHTS.
- 19960127 change: implemented rcpthosts.
- 19960127 change: split up some uses of putflush in qmail-remote,
- qmail-smtpd, spawn.c. eliminated NODELAY and corresponding
- paragraph in THOUGHTS.
- 19960127 change: added quote2(). used it in qmail-alias, qmail-send,
- qreceipt. now addresses are properly quoted in the From, To,
- and internal Return-Path of bounces; the From and To of
- receipts; and the Return-Path/RPLINE of delivered messages.
- removed relevant paragraph from THOUGHTS.
- 19960127 change: in RFCLOOPS, documented fact that Delivered-To address
- is conventionally not quoted.
- 19960127 change: knocked default SMTP timeouts down to 20 minutes.
- 19960127 change: added INSTALL.ids. tnx RN.
- 19960127 change: in INSTALL, noted that nogroup should already exist.
- 19960127 bug: pass_selprep checked pqchan[c] even if pass[c].id. impact:
- qmail-send wasted CPU time whenever more than one message was
- waiting on a blocked channel. fix: pass_selprep now checks
- !pass[c].id.
- 19960127 bug: programs invoked from qmail-alias were immune to SIGPIPE.
- impact: a delivery pipeline such as |yes|head -1000 would loop
- forever, since yes does not check for write errors. fix: added
- signal_uninit(). used it before execvp in qmail-alias. [sigh]
- 19960127 cleanup: added date822fmt.c. used it in newfield.c, qmail-queue.
- 19960127 cleanup: added fmt_uint0.c. used it in myctime.c, newfield.c,
- qmail-queue.
- 19960127 cleanup: added dnsdoe.c. used it in dnscname, dnsfq, dnsip,
- dnsmxip, dnsptr.
- 19960127 cleanup: eliminated temp from dnsfq.c.
- 19960127 bug: gen_allocdefs was making assumptions incompatible with the
- alloc_re interface. impact: qmail-send would dump core if you
- ran out of memory. fix: changed alloc_re interface.
- 19960126 portability problem: some versions of Linux don't have
- net/route.h. pointed out by RN. impact: couldn't compile under
- those versions. fix: ipme.c no longer includes net/route.h;
- hopefully this won't cause new portability problems.
- 19960126 change: added chmod instructions to INSTALL and INSTALL.alias.
- tnx RN.
- 19960126 change: INSTALL now refers to the traditional sendmail spot
- (/usr/lib), not the BSD 4.4 spot (/usr/sbin). tnx RN.
- 19960126 change: make auto-uids.h now creates auto-uids.h.tmp first.
- thus, if someone disobeys the installation instructions, and
- his make fails to remove targets upon error, he'll still be
- okay. tnx RN.
- 19960126 change: added forgeries.7.
- 19960125 cleanup: eliminated flagverbose, flagmetoo in sendmail.
- 19960125 cleanup: added substdio_copy.c. used it at several spots.
- 19960125 cleanup: added constmap.c. qmail-send now uses constmap for
- locals and virtualdomains. this will speed things up: no
- problem now to have thousands of virtual domains. removed
- relevant paragraph from THOUGHTS.
- 19960125 change: added linux section in find-systype. this will affect
- linux-* systypes. tnx RN for relevant info.
- 19960124 change: added -od, -oe, -p, -f to sendmail. the need for
- these was pointed out by TN.
- 19960124 bug: qmail-smtpd was reading from descriptor 1. impact: none;
- in normal use, both 0 and 1 point to the network. fix: changed
- 1 to 0.
- 19960124 bug: qmail-alias treated any .qmail open failure as permanent.
- impact: if a .qmail file was temporarily unopenable (e.g.,
- because of NFS), it was incorrectly ignored. fix: qmail-alias
- now dies QLX_SOFT on any open failure other than ENOENT.
- 19960124 change: added freebsd section in find-systype, same as bsd.os
- section. this will affect freebsd-* systypes.
- 19960124 cleanup: find-systype now immediately converts sys to lowercase.
- 19960124 change: qmail-setup now copies man pages into /var/qmail/man;
- qmail-check checks /var/qmail/man. using .0 style, which might
- cause trouble on various machines, but better than not trying.
- 19960124 change: in qmail-remote.c, changed perm_control to temp_control
- (and D to Z, thanks); thus failure to read control files (e.g.,
- because of permissions) is now a temporary error.
- 19960124 bug: in qmail-remote.c, temp_chdir() used D, not Z. impact: if
- chdir() to CONF_HOME failed (e.g., because of NFS), message
- would be bounced. fix: changed D to Z.
- 19960124 change: reorganized README.
- 19960124 portability problem: Linux has the fifo kernel bug that I had
- hoped I'd never run into. impact: messages under Linux (and any
- other systems with this bug) were picked up only in sweeps, not
- instantly. fix: triggerpull.c now writes a byte (non-blocking)
- to the fifo. updated INTERNALS accordingly.
- 19960124 bug: in qmail-remote.c, if quit() saw a remote write error, it
- would call writeerr() even though a message report had already
- been produced. impact: the mess report would include an extra
- ``ZConnected but communications failed,'' which was confusing
- to humans. fix: quit() now simply skips the wait-for-QUIT
- smtpcode() upon write error.
- 19960124 portability problem: Linux does not have SIGSYS or SIGEMT.
- impact: couldn't compile under Linux. fix: added appropriate
- ifdefs in signal.c.
- 19960124 qmail 0.70, beta.
