This version fixes a long-standing MIME (7 to 8-bit) conversion bug
and several smaller problems, e.g., a possible communication problem
between the MTA and libmilter, a bug in handling (invalid) addresses
containing 8-bit characters, a possible problem with small timeouts
being lost on slow machines if itimers are used, and the handling of
the 421 reply code and timeouts in the SMTP delivery code. There are
two changes in the msp feature that may change the behavior: MX lookups
are turned on for the SMTP mailers and hence `[localhost]' is used as
default instead of `localhost', and confTIME_ZONE is set to USE_TZ in
submit.mc. A complete list of changes can be found in the release notes.

Sendmail 8.12.x has an implementation bug in the milter
code that causes the milter daemons to fail when they
are bombarded with 20-30 messages from a mail server.
mail sendmail[82323]: g1N53lNY082323: Milter
(milter-amavis): select(read): Interrupted system call
The patch available at the link above definitely fixes the Milter timeout
problem. Before applying the patch, I would see this every 5 to 15 minutes
in our logs.
here hasn't been another one since I applied the patch 5 hours ago.

A little milter application I installed (spamassassin related) was
hanging every once in a while. I'm not sure if this patch will fix it,
but it sure seems like the right step to take. Without it, the libmilter
sources are compiled without the -pthread, even though the library is
linked with -pthread (rather needlessly, since it is a static lib only).

the ECHO macro is set to "echo" by default, but it is set to "true" if
make(1) is invoked with the -s option while ECHO_CMD is always set to
the echo command.
