	Bugfix (introduced 20100914): the "postscreen_greet_wait"
	delay speedup worked only for DNSBL listed sites.  File:
	postscreen/postscreen_dnsbl.c.

	Workaround: better handling of pregreeting spambots. The
	postscreen built-in SMTP engine no longer sends a 220 banner
	to a client that falls into the pregeet trap.  This eliminates
	many "NON-SMTP COMMAND" records in postscreen logging, as
	the SMTP client and server no longer get out of sync.  It
	also results in better logging of sender/recipient information.
	File: postscreen/postscreen_smtpd.c.

20100916

	Cleanup: postscreen now uses the first responding DNSBL
	name in the "5.7.1 Service unavailable" reply, instead of
	the last responding one. File: postscreen/postscreen_dnsbl.c.

	Cleanup: the 20100914 "postscreen_greet_wait" speedup did
	not happen as often as it should, because some older code
	still turned on PREGREET tests gratuitously, causing a full
	greet-wait delay.  File: postscreen/postscreen_tests.c.

	Cleanup: to avoid "address in use" problems, postscreen now
	closes the listening socket after "postfix stop".  It also
	closes the socket after "postfix reload" but that does not
	hurt. Files: master/event_server.c, master/multi_server.c.

	Cleanup: postscreen now logs CONNECT and DISCONNECT events.
	Files: postscreen/postscreen.c, postscreen/postscreen_misc.c.

20100917

	Bugfix: cut-and-paste error. Postscreen used pregreet_ttl
	instead of dnsbnl_ttl. File: postscreen/postscreen_early.c.

20100920

	Cleanup: minor cleanups and invisible fixes. Files:
	postscreen/postscreen_misc.c, postscreen/postscreen.h,
	postscreen/postscreen_tests.c.

	Feature: preliminary postscreen penalty mechanism. Basic
	idea: when a client exceeds some threshold, don't allow it
	to pass any tests until the penalty expires. Penalties
	provide a way to slow down clients without blocking mail
	permanently.  Files: postscreen/postscreen_misc.c,
	postscreen/postscreen_tests.c, postscreen/postscreen.c.

	A first application of the postscreen penalty mechanism
	triggers on clients that make brief connections to find out
	if the mail server is up.  With "postscreen_early_hangup_penalty
	= 600" they will disqualify themselves for 10 minutes.
	Unfortunately, this behavior is used by legitimate bulk
	mail services. This application was removed 20101103.  The
	penalty mechanism itself is left in place as #ifdef NONPROD.

20100923

	Cleanup: renamed MUMBLE_FLAG_MUMBLE aggregates to
	MUMBLE_MASK_MUMBLE for consistency with other Postfix code.
	Files: postscreen/*.[hc].

20100930

	Cleanup: flag PIPELINING errors with NOOP and VRFY.  File:
	smtpd/smtpd.c.

20101006

	Bugfix (introduced: 20100914) dangling pointer when a client
	makes N > 1 simultaneous connections and closes M < N
	connections before postscreen has delivered the DNSBL score
	to the corresponding pseudothreads. In practice the pointer
	will refer to a block of 0xff bytes; the program terminates
	with a segmentation violation, and is restarted immediately
	by the master daemon. Files: postscreen/postscreen_early.c,
	postscreen/postscreen_dnsbl.c.

	Cleanup: avoid repeated delivery to mailing list members
	with pathological nested alias configurations.  The local(8)
	delivery agent now keeps the owner-alias attribute of the
	parent alias, when delivering mail to a child alias that
	does not have its own owner alias. With this change, local
	addresses from that child alias will be written to a new
	queue file, and a temporary error with one local address
	will no longer result in repeated delivery to other mailing
	list members.  Specify "reset_owner_alias = yes" for the
	older behavior.  File: local/alias.c.

20101007

	Bugfix (introduced: 2100923): duplicate "PASS OLD" logging.
	File: postscreen/postscreen_misc.c.

20101008

	Cleanup: dnsblog now logs "addr X listed by domain Y as Z"
	instead of "addr X blocked by domain Y as Z", because the
	service may be used for whitelist lookups. File:
	dnsblog/dnsblog.c.

	Cleanup: don't apply reject_rhsbl_helo to non-domain forms

	Cleanup: new qmgr_ipc_timeout parameter (default: 60s) to
	override the system-wide ipc_timeout setting (default:
	3600s). The shorter timeout allows the queue manager to
	reset a deadlocked IPC connection before the watchdog timer
	goes off. Files: *qmgr/qmgr.c.

	Feature: DNS whitelist support in the Postfix SMTP server.
	permit_dnswl_client whitelists a client by IP address, and
	permit_rhswl_client whitelists a client by its hostname.
	The syntax is the same as reject_rbl_client etc., but the
	result is PERMIT instead of REJECT.  For safety reasons,
	permit_xxx_client are silently ignored when they would
	override reject_unauth_destination.  The result is
	DEFER_IF_REJECT when DNSWL lookup fails.  The implementation
	is based on a design documented by Noel Jones (August 2010).

	problem fix by Victor Duchovni. File: tls/tls_misc.c.
	
	Last-minute incompatible syntax change: Postfix now uses
	";" instead of "," to separate DNSBL/DNSWL address filter
	fields inside "[]". The compatibility break is not an issue,
	because the syntax never worked in main.cf. Problem reported
	by Mark Martinec. Files: util/ip_match.c, util/ip_match.in,
	util/ip_match.ref, proto/postconf.proto.

	Cleanup: postscreen now monitors the AVERAGE latency of
	table access, and complains at most once per minute.  File:

	Bugfix: master daemon panic with "master_spawn: at process
	limit" error, when "postfix reload" reduced the process
	limit from (a value larger than the current process count
	for some service) to (a value <= the current process count),
	and then a new connection was made to that service.  This
	is the smallest change that eliminates the problem. The
	final solution involves structural change, and goes into
	the development release. File: master/master_avail.c.

20110921

	Bugfix (introduced: Postfix 1.1): smtpd(8) did not sanitize
	newline characters in cleanup(8) REJECT messages, causing
	them to be sent out via SMTP as bare newline characters.
	This happened when a REJECT pattern matched multi-line
	header text.  Discovered by Kevin Locke.  File: smtpd/smtpd.c.

20110922

	Bugfix (introduced: Postfix 2.1): smtpd(8) sent multi-line

	Workaround: postscreen sent non-compliant SMTP responses
	(220- followed by 421) when it could not give a connection
	to a real smtpd process, causing some remote SMTP clients
	to bounce mail. The workaround is to hang up without sending
	the 421 reply (which is harmless); the complete fix involves
	too much change for a stable release.  Problem reported by

	"tlsproxy" instead of "smtpd", wasting an opportunity for
	session reuse.  File: tlsproxy/tlsproxy.c.

20111211

	Bugfix: missing lookup table entry and terminator, causing
	proxymap server segfault when postscreen(8) or verify(8)
	attempted to access their cache via the proxymap server.
	This could never have worked anyway, because the Postfix
	2.8 proxymap protocol does not support cache cleanup.  File
	util/dict.c.

20111226

	Bugfix (introduced 20110426): after lookup error with
	mailbox_transport_maps, mailbox_command_maps or
	fallback_transport_maps, the local delivery agent did not
	log the problem before deferring mail, and produced no defer
	logfile record. Files: local/mailbox.c, local/unknown.c.

20120127

	Bugfix (introduced: Postfix 2.8): the Postfix client sqlite
	quoting routine returned the unquoted result instead of the
	quoted text.  The opportunities for misuse are limited,
	because Postfix sqlite files are usually owned by root, and
	Postfix daemons usually run with non-root privileges so
	they can't corrupt the database. Problem reported by Rob
	McGee (rob0).  File: global/dict_sqlite.c.

20120130

	Bugfix (introduced: Postfix 2.3): the trace service did not
	distinguish between notifications for a non-bounce or a
	bounce message. This code pre-dates DSN support and should
	have been updated when it was re-purposed to handle DSN
	SUCCESS notifications. Problem reported by Sabahattin

20120516

	Workaround: apparently, FreeBSD 8.3 kqueue notifications
	sometimes break when a dnsblog(8) process loses an accept()
	race on a shared socket, resulting in repeated "connect to
	private/dnsblog service: Connection refused" warnings.  This
	condition is unique to dnsblog(8). The postscreen(8) daemon
	closes a postscreen-to-dnsblog connection as soon as it
	receives a dnsblog(8) reply, resulting in hundreds or
	thousands of connection requests per second.  All other
	multi-server daemons such as anvil(8) or proxymap(8) have
	connection lifetimes ranging from 5s to 1000s depending on
	server load.  The workaround is for dnsblog to use the
	single_server driver instead of the multi_server driver.
	This one-line code change eliminates the accept() race
	without any Postfix performance impact.  Problem reported
	by Sahil Tandon.  File: dnsblog/dnsblog.c.

20120517

	Workaround: to avoid crashes when the OpenSSL library is
	updated without "postfix reload", the Postfix TLS session
	cache ID now includes the OpenSSL library version number.
	Note: this problem cannot be fixed in tlsmgr(8). Code by
	Victor Duchovni. Files: tls/tls_server.c, tls_client.c.

20120520

	Bugfix (introduced Postfix 2.4): the event_drain() function
	was comparing bitmasks incorrectly causing the program to
	always wait for the full time limit. This error affected
	the unused postkick command, but only after s/fifo/unix/
	in master.cf.  File: util/events.c.

	Cleanup: laptop users have always been able to avoid
	unnecessary disk spin-up by doing s/fifo/unix/ in master.cf
	(this is currently not supported on Solaris systems).
	However, to make this work reliably, the "postqueue -f"
	command must wait until its requests have reached the pickup
	and qmgr servers before closing the UNIX-domain request
	sockets.  Files: postqueue/postqueue.c, postqueue/Makefile.in.
