Changelog
mailagent (1:3.1-24-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. After a long time, mailagent has revived. This
version has bug fixes that make it friendlier to perl 5.10, and
- Use strict RFC-822 definition for header names: the field name can
be made of anything but SPACE or colon, from ASCII 33 to ASCII 126.
- The patchlevel is now ignored, as we track by SVN revision
number. Changed all version information reporting to new format
"version-revision".
- Added automatic computation of the SVN revision in "revision.h", for
later perusal by Configure to propagate correct revision numbers in
files.
- Added update of revision.h.
- Removed the WARNING level, as it is not critical enough to warrant a
daily notification.
- Changed path for checkagent.sh in the sample crontab entry.
- Added bzip2 compressor.
- Removed legacy hardwired HOME directory. Compute it!
- Removed more "$*" uses that are now forbidden by perl 5.10.
- Integrated more changed from Debian:
+ Fixed maildir computation logic to avoid useless superseding.
+ Added regular expression for Top Level Domain validation.
+ Removed "compress" from the list of default compressors and added
bzip2.
- Cleaned up by fixing most of the items listed in Debian bug #43171
Bug fix: "mailagent: several problems with the manual page", thanks
to <email address hidden> (Closes: #43171).
- Ensure POST always puts a single space after the field name to avoid
INN rejecting the article due to invalid header.
- Do not process the queue in the background when invoked from
terminal, unless given an explicit -q switch, naturally.
- Added -U switch to disable first UNIQUE / RECORD rejection for
duplicates.
- Reduce maximum article age for POST to 10 days.
- Look for utmp in /var/run as well, for modern systems with read-only
/etc.
- Cleaned up code a little bit since now Configure enables gcc
warnings by default and thus code required some uplifting.
- Remove all usage of $* as it is no longer accepted by Perl 5.10.
- Reset CDPATH to avoid pdksh's emission of the chosen dir on "cd".
