out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.

8.11.2/8.11.2 2000/12/29
Prevent a segmentation fault when trying to set a class in
address test mode due to a negative array index. Audit
other array indexing. This bug is not believed to be
exploitable. Noted by Michal Zalewski of the "Internet for
Schools" project (IdS).
Add an FFR (for future release) to drop privileges when using
address test mode. This will be turned on in 8.12. It can
be enabled by compiling with:
APPENDDEF(`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', `-D_FFR_TESTMODE_DROP_PRIVS')
in your devtools/Site/site.config.m4 file. Suggested by
Michal Zalewski of the "Internet for Schools" project (IdS).
Fix potential problem with Cyrus-SASL security layer which may have
caused I/O errors, especially for mechanism DIGEST-MD5.
When QueueSortOrder was set to host, sendmail might not read
enough of the queue file to determine the host, making the
sort sub-optimal. Problem noted by Jeff Earickson of
Colby College.
Don't issue DSNs for addresses which use the NOTIFY parameter (per
RFC 1891) but don't have FAILURE as value.
Initialize Cyrus-SASL library before the SMTP daemon is started.
This implies that every change to SASL related files requires
a restart of the daemon, e.g., Sendmail.conf, new SASL
mechanisms (in form of shared libraries).
Properly set the STARTTLS related macros during a queue run for
a cached connection. Bug reported by Michael Kellen of
NxNetworks, Inc.
Log the server name in relay= for ruleset tls_server instead of the
client name.
Include original length of bad field/header when reporting
MaxMimeHeaderLength problems. Requested by Ulrich Windl of
the Universitat Regensburg.
Fix delivery to set-user-ID files that are expanded from aliases in
DeliveryMode queue. Problem noted by Ric Anderson of the
University of Arizona.
Fix LDAP map -m (match only) flag. Problem noted by Jeff Giuliano
of Collective Technologies.
Avoid using a negative argument for sleep() calls when delaying answers
to EXPN/VRFY commands on systems which respond very slowly.
Problem noted by Mikolaj J. Habryn of Optus Internet
Engineering.
Make sure the F=u flag is set in the default prog mailer
definition. Problem noted by Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
Meteorological Institute.
Fix IPv6 check for unspecified addresses. Patch from
Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino of the KAME Project.
Fix return values for IRIX nsd map. From Kari Hurtta of the Finnish
Meteorological Institute.
Fix parsing of DaemonPortOptions and ClientPortOptions. Read all
of the parameters to find Family= setting before trying to
interpret Addr= and Port=. Problem noted by Valdis
Kletnieks of Virginia Tech.
When delivering to a file directly from an alias, do not call
initgroups(); instead use the DefaultUser group information.
Problem noted by Marc Schaefer of ALPHANET NF.
RunAsUser now overrides the ownership of the control socket, if
created. Otherwise, sendmail can not remove it upon
close. Problem noted by Werner Wiethege.
Fix ConnectionRateThrottle counting as the option is the number of
overall connections, not the number of connections per
socket. A future version may change this to per socket
counting.
Portability:
Clean up libsmdb so it functions properly on platforms
where sizeof(u_int32_t) != sizeof(size_t). Problem
noted by Rein Tollevik of Basefarm AS.
Fix man page formatting for compatibility with Solaris'
whatis. From Stephen Gildea of InTouch Systems, Inc.
UnixWare 7 includes snprintf() support. From Larry
Rosenman.
IPv6 changes for platforms using KAME. Patch from
Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino of the KAME Project.
Avoid a typedef compile conflict with Berkeley DB 3.X and
Solaris 2.5 or earlier. Problem noted by Bob Hughes
of Pacific Access.
Add preliminary support for AIX 5. Contributed by
Valdis Kletnieks of Virginia Tech.
Solaris 9 load average support from Andrew Tucker of Sun
Microsystems.
CONFIG: Reject addresses of the form a!b if FEATURE(`nouucp', `r')
is used. Problem noted by Phil Homewood of Asia Online,
patch from Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois University.
CONFIG: Change the default DNS based blacklist server for
FEATURE(`dnsbl') to blackholes.mail-abuse.org.
CONFIG: Deal correctly with the 'C' flag in {daemon_flags}, i.e.,
implicitly assume canonical host names.
CONFIG: Deal with "::" in IPv6 addresses for access_db. Based on
patch by Motonori Nakamura of Kyoto University.
CONFIG: New OSTYPE(`aix5') contributed by Valdis Kletnieks of
Virginia Tech.
CONFIG: Pass the illegal header form <list:;> through untouched
instead of making it worse. Problem noted by Motonori
Nakamura of Kyoto University.
CONTRIB: Added buildvirtuser (see `perldoc contrib/buildvirtuser`).
CONTRIB: qtool.pl: An empty queue is not an error. Problem noted
by Jan Krueger of digitalanswers communications consulting
gmbh.
CONTRIB: domainmap.m4: Handle domains with '-' in them. From Mark
Roth of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
DEVTOOLS: Change the internal devtools OS, REL, and ARCH m4
variables into bldOS, bldREL, and bldARCH to prevent
namespace collisions. Problem noted by Motonori Nakamura
of Kyoto University.
RMAIL: Undo the 8.11.1 change to use -G when calling sendmail. It
causes some changes in behavior and may break rmail for
installations where sendmail is actually a wrapper to
another MTA. The change will re-appear in a future
version.
SMRSH: Use the vendor supplied directory on HPUX 10.X, HPUX 11.X,
and SunOS 5.8. Requested by Jeff A. Earickson of Colby
College and John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
VACATION: Fix pattern matching for addresses to ignore.
VACATION: Don't reply to addresses of the form owner-*
or *-owner.
New Files:
cf/ostype/aix5.m4

641. [bug] $GENERATE caused a uninitialized link to be used.
[RT #595]
640. [bug] Memory leak in error path could cause
"mpctx->allocated == 0" failure. [RT #584]
639. [bug] Reading entropy from the keyboard would sometimes fail.
[RT #591]
638. [port] lib/isc/random.c needed to explicitly include
time.h explicitly to get a prototype for time() when
pthreads was not being used. [RT #592]
637. [port] Use isc_u?int64_t instead of (unsigned) long long in
lib/isc/print.c. Also allow lib/isc/print.c to
be compiled even if the platform does not need it.
[RT #592]
636. [port] Shut up MSVC++ about a possible loss of precision
in the ISC__BUFFER_PUTUINT*() macros. [RT #592]
635. [bug] Reloading a server with a configured blackhole list
would cause an assertion. [RT #590]
634. [bug] A log file will completely stop being written when
it reaches the maximum size in all cases, not just
when versioning is also enabled. [RT #570]
633. [port] Cope with rlim_t missing on BSD/OS systems. [RT #575]
632. [bug] The index array of the journal file was
corrupted as it was written to disk.
631. [port] Build without thread support on systems without
pthreads.
630. [bug] Locking failure in zone code. [RT #582]
629. [bug] 9.1.0b1 dereferenced a null pointer and crashed
when responding to a UDP IXFR request.
628. [bug] If the root hints contained only AAAA addresses,
named would be unable to perform resolution.
627. [bug] The EDNS0 blackhole detection code of changed 324
waited for three retransmissions to each server,
which takes much too long when a domain has many
name servers and all of them drop EDNS0 queries.
Now we retry without EDNS0 after three consecutive
timeouts, even if they are all from different
servers. [RT #143]
626. [bug] The lightweight resolver daemon no longer crashes
when asked for a SIG rrset. [RT #558]
625. [func] Zones now inherit their class from the enclosing view.
624. [bug] The zone object could get timer events after it had
been destroyed, causing a server crash. [RT #571]
623. [func] Added "named-checkconf" and "named-checkzone" program
for syntax checking named.conf files and zone files,
respectively.
622. [bug] A canceled request could be destroyed before

to be non-null. Also 'done' will not be called if
dns_master_load*inc() fails immediately. [RT #565]
618. [bug] Queries to a signed zone could sometimes cause
an assertion failure.
617. [bug] When using dynamic update to add a new RR to an
existing RRset with a different TTL, the journal
entries generated from the update did not include
explicit deletions and re-additions of the existing
RRs to update their TTL to the new value.
616. [func] dnssec-signzone -t output now includes performance
statistics.
615. [bug] dnssec-signzone did not like child keysets signed
by multiple keys.
614. [bug] Checks for uninitialized link fields were prone
to false positives, causing assertion failures.
The checks are now disabled by default and may
be re-enabled by defining ISC_LIST_CHECKINIT.
613. [bug] "rndc reload zone" now reloads primary zones.
It previously only updated slave and stub zones,
if an SOA query indicated an out of date serial.
612. [cleanup] Shutup a ridiculously noisy HP-UX compiler that
complains relentlessly about how its treatment
of 'const' has changed as well as how casting

DNAME in a response to an SOA query. [RT #515]
606. [bug] Compiling with --disable-threads failed due
to isc_thread_self() being incorrectly defined
as an integer rather than a function.
605. [func] New function isc_lex_getlasttokentext().
604. [bug] The named.conf parser could print incorrect line
numbers when long comments were present.
603. [bug] Make dig handle multiple types or classes on the same
query more correctly.
602. [func] Cope automatically with UnixWare's broken
IN6_IS_ADDR_* macros. [RT #539]
601. [func] Return a non-zero exit code if an update fails
in nsupdate.
600. [bug] Reverse lookups sometimes failed in dig, etc...
599. [func] Added four new functions to the libisc log API to
support i18n messages. isc_log_iwrite(),
isc_log_ivwrite(), isc_log_iwrite1() and
isc_log_ivwrite1() were added.
598. [bug] An update-policy statement would cause the server
to assert while loading. [RT #536]
597. [func] dnssec-signzone is now multithreaded.
596. [bug] DNS_RDATASLAB_FORCE and DNS_RDATASLAB_EXACT are
not mutually exclusive.
595. [port] On Linux 2.2, socket() returns EINVAL when it
should return EAFNOSUPPORT. Work around this.
[RT #531]
594. [func] sdb drivers are now assumed to not be thread-safe
unless the DNS_SDBFLAG_THREADSAFE flag is supplied.
593. [bug] If a secure zone was missing all its NXTs and
a dynamic update was attempted, the server entered
an infinite loop.
592. [bug] The sig-validity-interval option now specifies a

last pkgsrc version):
10/28/2000 (2.4.7)
o Added the following options to m2h_text_plain::filter:
attachcheck Honor attachment disposition. By default,
all text/plain data is displayed inline on
the message page. If attachcheck is specified
and Content-Disposition specifies the data as
an attachment, the data is saved to a file
with a link to it from the message page.
htmlcheck Check if message is actually an HTML message
(to get around abhorrent MUAs). The message
is treated as HTML if the first non-whitespace
data looks like the start of an HTML document.
o FROMFIELD resource default value is now:
from:mail-reply-to:reply-to:return-path:apparently-from:
sender:resent-sender
The change is the addition of "mail-reply-to."
o Added the following resource variables:
$MSGTORDNUM$ Ordinal number of message in current
thread.
o Added the following resource variable message specificiers:
TEND Last message of current discussion
thread.
TTOP Top/root message of current discussion
thread.
o Changes to readmail.pl:
- %Cid hash keys are now URLs. Content-Ids are denoted
as "cid:..." Hash also contains Content-Location values
of message parts. This allows filters (like the HTML
filter) to check for external URL references where
the data for the reference is included with the message.
- More robust handling of malformed multipart messages.
o The null filter is applied to application/ms-tnef by default.
o Lowercase tag names are now used in default resource values
that contain HTML markup.
o Bug fixes to the documentation.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
04/24/2000 (2.4.6)
o Stricter check is made when decoded quoted-printable data.
An escape sequence is only converted to a raw character if
a it is a valid escape sequence. I.e. Any '=' not followed
by two hexadecimal characters is left as-is.
o Call to Digest::MD5::md5_hex() wrapped in eval block in
case of bad installations of Digest::MD5 module.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
02/14/2000 (2.4.5)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Following changes to m2h_text_html::filter:
- All comment declarations are removed. This avoid
potential SSI attacks and declarations that may conflict
with MHonArc.
- Additional tags have been added to the to-strip list
to avoid potential client-side scripting attacks. See
MIMEFILTERS docs for list.
- Added "nofont" option to strip out any <font> tags.
o Added application/x-bzip2 to known mime types (mhmimetypes.pl).
o Simple modification to get_time_from_date() in mhutil.pl to
handle abhorrent case of message date using a 2 digit year.
o Under VMS, the default lock file name has been changed to
"mhonarc_lck" for directory based locking will work.
o mhonarc::htmlize/entify now translates the double-quote
character (") to ".
o Added VARREGEX resource to allow customization of resource
variable matching. Mainly for use with resource files written
on multibyte charsets like SJIS. Use with caution.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
10/01/1999 (2.4.4)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Added the following resources:
MIMEDECODERS Content-Transfer-Encoding decoding
functions.
o Added the following resource variables:
$PGLINKLIST$ Print out a list of index page links.
o New content filter for message/external-body.
o Message/delivery-status content handled by mhtxtplain.pl
o Support for "Zone[+-]DDDD" timezone specification.
o MAILparse_parameter_str() function added to readmail.pl.
Function supports parsing parameter value strings with support
for RFC 2184 extensions. Function added to provide
support for message/external-body filter.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
08/15/1999 (2.4.3)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Added the following resources:
POSIXSTRFTIME Use POSIX::strftime() or not for
processing time format strings
o The "latin[1-6]" character sets defined in the default
value of CHARSETCONVERTERS. iso8859::str2sgml modified
to use proper iso8859 map for specified latin[1-6]
specification.
o The text/html filter now strips out scripting markup by
default. To allow scripting markup to be preserved, the
"allowscript" option can be used.
o Unknown media-types are now treated as application/octet-stream,
which will invoke the application/octet-stream filter.
Because of this, an explicit entry for application/octet-stream
has been added to the default value of MIMEFILTERS.
o If in a multipart/alternative entity, and no known media-types
exists, the last part is treated as application/octet-stream.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
08/11/1999 (2.4.2)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Added the following resources:
STDIN Source for standard input
o Added the following resource variables:
$ENV$ Print an environment variable
o Added support for decoding uuencoded data within text
messages in mhtxtplain.pl. Decoding activated via the
"uudecode" option.
o For processing time format strings, POSIX::strftime() is
used, if available. If not, MHonArc implementation is
used.
o The default value of FROMFIELDS now includes "return-path".
o Description section moved before Options section in -help
message.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
07/25/1999 (2.4.1)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Added the following resources:
MSGEXCFILTER Perl expressions for excluding
messages from archive.
SAVERESOURCES Flag if resource values should be
saved in database.
o Added the following resource variables:
$HTMLEXT$ Value of HTMLEXT resource.
o Documentation corrections an additions.
o Use of typeglobs removed from mhdb.pl.
o mhtime.pl explicitly defined in mhonarc package.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
06/25/1999 (2.4.0)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
o Added the following resources:
ADDRESSMODIFYCODE Perl expressions to apply to addresses
during message header conversion.
CHECKNOARCHIVE Check "no archive" flag in messages.
LOCKMETHOD The type of archive locking performed.
SPAMMODE Perform actions to deter email address
harvesters.
SSMARKUP Markup at the *very* beginning of any
generated page.
STDOUT Destination of stdout messages/data.
STDERR Destination of stderr messages/data.
SUBJECTTHREADS To check, or not to check, subjects when
computing threads.
o Added the following resource variables:
$FROMADDRNAME$ Username portion of From email address.
$FROMADDRDOMAIN$ Domain portion of From email address.
$TOADDRNAME$ Username portion of an email address
(applicable in MAILTOURL only).
$TOADDRDOMAIN$ Domain portion of an email address
(applicable in MAILTOURL only).
o A new utility program: mha-decode. The program functions
as a MIME message decoder. Can be used against mail folders
or single messages.
o The "PARENT" argument to applicable resource variables is now
called "TPARENT". This change should not affect anyone since
the "PARENT" argument did not work properly in previous
releases.
o SUBJECTHEADER and HEADBODYSEP resource changes will now affect
existing messages that are edited during normal operations or
via EDITIDX. Note, messages created from old versions of
MHonArc may not be affected.
o The default TIMEZONES settings now has a more complete list.
o Timezone acronym settings now support [+-]HHMM specifications.
o Support for ISO-2022-JP encoded strings in message headers
is now supported. It does assume that HTML viewer supports
ISO-2022-JP.
o If Digest::MD5 is installed, md5_hex() will be used to create
message-ids for messages without message-ids. This allows
MHonArc to ignore non-message-id archived messages in ADD mode.
The MD5 digest is computed only on message header for efficieny.
If Digest::MD5 is not installed, a message-id will still be
assigned if none present, but MHonArc will not be able to
detect if message has already been archived in subsequent ADD
operations.
o Text/html filter supports the "noscript" option. If
specified, any script-related markup will be removed.
This provides added security to avoid sites being compromised
with foreign client-side scripting.
o Added the following options to mhexternal.pl (the save-to-file
filter): forceattach, forceinline, and inlineexts.
o Recognize mailing list headers as defined by RFC 2369 and
hyperlink URLs listed.
o If no boundaries exist in a multipart message (even though
a boundary is defined in the header), MHonArc will treat
the entire body as the first part. This prevents "unable
to process" warnings.
o The "<!--X-From" comment declaration at the top of converted
messages is now munged by a modified ROT13 to facilitate
anti-spam-bot measures, but still provide the "From"
information for mha-dbrecover.
o When editing message pages, the new version of the page is now
created as a temporary file and then if successfully created,
it will get renamed to its proper name. This help avoids "losing"
a message page if there is an error during page editing. The
same method is applied to the dumping of DBFILE.
o Message sorting modified to improve sorting performance when
sorting by subject and author.
o URL matching expression in mhtxtplain.pl modified to handle
'&' characters.

See INSTALL for more information.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
10/25/1998 (2.3.1)
Enhancements/Changes
--------------------
Please read the RELNOTES file for important information regarding
upgrading to v2.2.x, or later, from pre-v2.2 releases.
o Support for MHTML. I.e. An HTML document that references data
included as other parts to the mail message, will be converted
so the data will be shown where referenced. Before, all
referenced data was shown at the end of the message.
o Auto-computing the name for attachments no longer caches
data, so performance may decrease when processing MIME
messages. This change is required since multiple filters can
now write data to files and not all to the same directory (a
common utility function now exists for writing data to a file).
Also, it avoids behavioral problems with custom front-ends
that operate on multiple archives in a single process.
o Changes to readmail.pl inorder to support MHTML. Changes
done should help the handling of other multipart/related
data types.
Bug Fixes
---------
See BUGS.
=======================================================================
10/10/1998 (2.3.0)
o Perl 5 is now required to run MHonArc. Although the code
base is still "Perl 4-style", many changes made use of Perl 5
constructs.
o New utility programs added to the dustribution:
mha-dbedit - Make resource/db changes w/o touching
pages.
mha-dbrecover - Rebuild database from HTML message
files.
o Many resource variables have been changed to take arguments
to control what values the variables will expand to. Because,
of this, many variables are now deprecated. However, old
forms of resource variables are still recognized.
See the documentation for more information on resource
variables (a new section on resource variables has been
added to the documentation) and the newer syntax.
o New resources:
AFS - Skip archive directory permission check
ANNOTATE - Annotate message(s).
LOCK - To lock, or not to lock.
MSGPGS - Print, or not, message pages.
NOTE - Annotate markup.
NOTEIA - Inactive annotate markup.
NOTEDIR - Directory where annotations are located.
NOTETEXT - Annotation text.
PAGENUM - Page to output when using GENIDX with
MULTIPG.
READDB - Just load the database
(useful for application front-ends).
USELOCALTIME - Use localtime to determine day groups in
date index listing.
o New resource variables:
$DDMMYYYY$ - Day/Mon/Year(4 digit)
$MMDDYYYY$ - Mon/Day/Year(4 digit)
$MSG$ - Filename of message page
$SORTTYPE$ - Type of sort in use for main index
$TSORTTYPE$ - Type of sort in use for thread index
$YYYYMMDD$ - Year(4 digit)/Mon/Day
Note, many other variables have been changed. See docs for
more information.
o Added "J" modifier for resource variables. When specified,
escapes quote characters so expanded values can be used
within JavaScript strings.
o Added "usenameext" option to mhexternal.pl filter. When
specified, mhexternal.pl will use the filename specified in
the message for determining the filename extension to use.
o The -rcfile option can be specified multiple times. Resource
files specified are read in the order specified.
o The -definevars options has been deprecated in favor of
-definevar (no ending 's'). -definevar can be specified
multiple times on the command-line. The usaage of it is
exactly the same as -definevars. The -definevars is still
supported for backwards compatibility.
o The -perlinc option can be specified multiple times.
o For the mhtxtplain.pl filter, the TARGET attribute for links is
now specified only if the target option is specified.
o MHonArc is now smarter when the RMM resource is used. MHonArc
will now only update pages that are required when messages
are removed instead of doing a force update on all pages.
RMM operations will now perform much faster.
o Subject based replies are *no longer* treated as a separate
"group" when printing thread index pages. I.e. Subject based
replies no longer cause a separate TSUBLISTBEG and TSUBLISTEND
to be invoked. Before, it was a problem if the HTML OL
element was used. OL numbering would restart when subject
based replies were printed.
o GENIDX now supports the use of MULTIPG (w/IDXSIZE).
o MHonArc uses rename instead of file copying when editing
pages. Should provide a speed increase when editing archive
pages.
o Reason when a file cannot be opened or created is printed
($! is now included in the error message).
o If unable to lock an archive (and -force not specified),
MHonArc will now return an exit status of 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL).
This is for the benefit of MTAs (like sendmail) where
MHonArc is called via an alias.
o Some changes to code to make it suitable for MHonArc to be
embedded into other Perl programs. The most significant
changes was to make it possible to process more than one
archive in a single process instance (note, archives can
only be processed in sequence and not in parallel). Now it
easier to write different application front-ends to MHonArc.
o Some other code cleanup in the hopes to improve performance.
