Incorporates the fixes for non-mapped IPv6 listening sockets.
Fixes unclosed MySQL connection bug in delivery subprocesses.
Better RFC compliance with respect to Resent-Subject and
Resent-Reply-To.
Fix handling of unset hostname for OpenLDAP2.
Drop an unclosed connection if more than 5 uncrecognized commands are
received.
Handle \t in fail messages properly.
Bite the bullet _now_ and use MTA user exim instead. This means that
only early adopters of Exim-3.31 are affected, rather than lots more
folks further down the line.
I still think mailnull is better, but nobody in the Exim community
agrees with me. :-)
Bump PORTREVISION as appropriate.
users.
Fix the call to bind() in daemon.c so that the correct addrlen is
passed for a IPv4 or IPv6 struct sockaddr. This fixes the problem
where an exim binary compiled for IPv6 support won't bind() to any IPv4
addresses. The author approves of this patch.
Now that exim+ipv6 works for non-ipv6 FreeBSD hosts, make IPv6 support
default and provide a WITHOUT_IPV6 knob for folks who don't want it.
Turn on WITHOUT_IPV6 for pre-KAME systems, to give RELENG_3 folks a
fighting chance.
This is primarily a maintenance release, though there are a very small
number of functional additions.
This release does not address the "orphaned -D spool files" problem, but
to date this problem has not been observed on FreeBSD systems.
FreeBSD has shipped with mailwrapper(8), which facilitates the use of
drop-in replacements for sendmail. Retire exim.sh in favour of the
mailwrapper(8) approach.

A continuum in the history for this file isn't necessary. What _is_
important is the purpose of the patch today:
*) Changes the test used to determine whether a file should be installed
to cope with files which we "touch" to zero bytes for packaging
purposes.
*) Causes the configure file to be installed as a sample only. The
administrator needs to rename this file to "activate" exim.
*) Changes the invocation of make-info to be less prone to fail on
silly errors and fixes the info(1) titles so that, for example
``info exim'' actually enters the exim.info file.
Replace it with a patch against the distribution configure.default,
which changes as little as possible so that folks who are accustomed to
Exim on other platforms will not be astonished.
Install the file as configure.default instead of configure.sample, since
it's as close as damnit to the default Exim configuration file.
The only arguably unnecessary deviation from the default is:
* Accept SMTP relay from the loopback IP address. Too many applications
require this, and the window of abuse is arguably negligible.
``info exim'' would fail to descend into any of the 3 Exim info files
from the dir top branch.
While we're at it, add a pkg-message that
1) Points to the documentation
2) Explains how to get Exim started
run with a kernel that has had IPv6 ommitted from its configuration,
so I can't make this a default (yet).
* Remove crazy handling of exim.sh and replace it with something much
simpler and more sane. This allows non-root users to build, even if
they can't install (properly).
Since BSD UNIX still doesn't offer a user for running an MTA in a
sandbox the way many Linux distributions do, the Exim port uses
the traditional sandbox user for sendmail, called 'sendmail'.
Bump PORTREVISION accordingly.
files/Makefile) that's been a maintenance PITA for too long. Replace it
with a patch against EDITME, now that the sed rules that operate on it
are mostly sensible.
AUTH_CRAM_MD5 and AUTH_PLAINTEXT support have nothing to do with PAM,
other than that all three can be used as authentication mechanisms
for SMTP AUTH.
Enable all three by default, so that the package includes them.
home directory is set to /nonexistent .
Not all systems encourage the use of /nonexistent as a home directory,
so this is not a change that should be incorporated into the Exim
distribution.
This change allows local deliveries into /var/mail for users with
no valid home directory.
options `start' and `stop' now (unless I have forgotten any). This allows
us to call the scripts from /etc/rc.shutdown with the correct option.
The (42 or so) ports that already DTRT before are unchanged.
Bugfix release.
IPv6 support is compiled in. I can't test to see whether it works, and
got no feedback from a request for testing on the exim-users mailing
list.
Also added hooks for SMTP AUTH and PAM support, disabled by default
for now.
Added Makefile knob for the new MySQL support within lookups.
Added Makefile knob for the improved LDAP support.
Turn TCP Wrappers support as default behaviour.
Turn on embedded perl.
See doc/NewStuff in the distfile for bugfixes and enhancements.
Patches incorporated by the author were removed. One new patch created
to prevent core dumps when running non-listening queue-runners.
Handle the difference in BINOWN between stable (bin) and current (root),
obviating the need for an INSTALL script.
Don't install shell script "place-holders" for eximon when built without
USE_XLIB, just touch the files for package-friendliness. Graceful.
Improve out-of-the-box relay handling; localhost symoblic name was weak,
use private subnet numerical net instead.

Note! I have fixed a bogon from previous versions where I was putting the
executables in $(PREFIX)/bin. They now go in $(PREFIX)/sbin, so make
sure your previous binaries have been properly removed!
