Fixes possible DoS vulnerability. Thanks to Sven Mueller and Florian - Weimer for the solution. -- Added new options for adding X-Envelope-From and (optionally) X-Envelope-To - headers to messages before SA processing. The idea is to help SA process any - blacklist/whitelist to/from directives on the actual sender/recipients instead - of the possibly bogus envelope headers. Use --seh or --set-envelope-headers - to enable setting both headers, or use --sef or --set-envelope-from to enable - only X-Envelope-From. If added, spampd attempts to remove the X-Envelope-To - header after SA processing to preserve BCC recipient anonymity, but enabling - this header may still expose recipient information. See man page for more - details. This patch was originally submitted by Sven Mueller, was slightly - modified, and the --sef option was added. - -######## - -2.21 (23-Oct-05) (unreleased) -- fixed SA version check on alphanumeric version strings. Stops the annoying - Perl warning messages in the mail log. Thanks to Sven Mueller for the fix. - -######## - -2.20 (05-Oct-04) -- added support for SpamAssassin version 3. spampd should now support all - SA versions (tested with 2.6.3 and 3.0.0). -- removed --add-sc-header feature. It is now redundant with SA v2.6 ability - to (almost fully) customize headers, which v3 improves on. If anyone - really needs this feature, please let me know. -- added --nodetach option to prevent daemon process backgrounding. Patch - provided by Urban Petry. Can be useful for win32/cygwin. -- if --debug is specified, Net::Server log level is increased to 4 (debug) - to provide some more info in the log (can be useful for diagnosing - user/permission issues). Thanks to Urban Petry for idea. -- the message sender (From header) is now included in the log along with message - ID, recipient, and scoring info. Thanks to Roland Koeckel for the patch. - -######## - -2.13 (24-Nov-03) -- SA debug messages redirected from STDERR (warn) to syslog. Thanks to Roland - Koeckel for the suggestion. - -######## - -2.12 (15-Nov-03) -- fixed bug related to Sys::Syslog where we needed to escape % signs in - Message IDs. Thanks to Jeffrey W. Collyer and Yann Grossel for the bug reports. -- minor performance improvement in SpamPD::Client using buffered write to send - message data. Thanks to Sam Horrocks for the tip. -- fixed error condition when an error response ([4|5]xx) was returned after a - DATA command was sent. Thanks to Rodrigo Ventura for bug reports about this. - -######## - -2.11 (15-Jul-03): -- fix for occasional corrupted message headers which caused blank messages - (seemed to have only affected certain malformed spam mail). -- added --logsock option for syslog socket. Defaults to 'unix' except for - HP-UX and SunOS (Solaris) which I'm told prefer 'inet'. - -######## - -2.10 (01-Jul-03): -- added optional 'X-Spam-Checked-By: {hostname}' header, where {hostname} is, - theoretically, the name of the machine doing the message scanning. New - options --add-sc-header and --hostname=name control this behavior. - -######## - -2.00 (10-Jun-03): -- major rewrite of how mail is handled internally. spampd now takes no - responsibility for the mail at any point, instead acting as a transparent - proxy between the originating and the destination servers. That is, the - servers speak to each other through spampd so final mail delivery - occurs only when the destination server acknowledges receipt of the data. - Idea based on smtpprox by Bennett Todd (http://bent.latency.net/smtpprox/). - Unfortunately this breaks the ability to redirect the mail based on spam - score, since scoring happens after all recipients have been specified and - accepted. But, it is much cleaner and safer than the previous method. - -- new architecture doesn't store the mail data in memory any more. Message - is still written to memory before scanning by SpamAssassin, but messages - larger than the --maxsize to be scanned won't eat up a bunch of memory. - From smtpprox documentation by Bennet Todd: - "it [spampd] stores the body of the message in an unlinked file - under /tmp, which should be a tmpfs; this prevents the allocation - overhead associated with large strings (often 2-3x) and ensures that - space will be returned to the OS as soon as it's not needed." - -- as a bonus feature, LMTP is now supported by virtue of spampd's transparency. - -- added a timeout check around the socket operations as suggested in the - Net::Server docs. Added new parameter to control this: --childtimeout=n - where n is number of seconds. - -- added a timeout check around the message processing (spam checking) routines - to guard against a SpamAssassin hang. Added new parameter to control - this: --satimeout=n where n is number of seconds. If a timeout (or error) - occurs while processing, the mail is still passed on unless the new --dose - (die-on-sa-errors) paramater is given. - -- added --children=n parameter to specify how many child - servers to spawn and maintain. Default is 5 children (plus - one parent). - -- now uses Net::Server::PreForkSimple instead of PreFork. (Tried utilizing the - advanced children pool features of PreFork but either couldn't figure it out - or they're kinda broken. If anyone has experience here, please let me know.) - -- improved logging including the Message-ID, recipients, 100ths precision - on spam score, processing time, and file size. Logging format now better - resembles that of spamd (which hopefully means spamd log analysis tools can be - made to work with spampd easily). - -- removed dependencies on Net::SMTP, Net::SMTP::Server::Client, and Error - modules. - -- host/port and relay host/port can both be specified as xx.xx.xx.xx:nn in - the --host and --relayhost parameters, or as individual parameters (--host, - --port, --relayhost, --relayport). - -# The next 3 items are ideas/patches by -# Kurt Andersen, -# Agilent Technologies Postmaster -# Global Messaging Team, Agilent Technologies - -- added optional support for Time::HiRes for more accurate processing time - reporting in the log (automatically loaded if Time::HiRes is available). - -- added optional logging of which SA rules matched a message. New option is - --log-rules-hit or --rh for short. - -- Added auto HPUX OS detection for syslog loggging - "(for some reason HPUX chokes on using the 'unix' socket type)." - -# Thanks Kurt! - -- added much more verbose spampd logging when using the --debug option. - -- 3 parameters are now deprecated but accepted for backwards compatability: - --dead-letters, --heloname, and --stop-at-threshold - -- added shorthand choice for some options: - --aw for --auto-whitelist; --L for --local-only; --a for --tagall - --u for --user; --g for --group; --p for --pid - --d for --debug; --h for --help; - -- documentation updates - -- licensing change due to use of Bennet Todd's code (to GNU GPL from Perl - Artistic). - -######## - -1.0.2 (13-Apr-03): -- added 'local-only' parameter to pass on to SA which turns off all - network-based tests (DNS, Razor, etc). - -######## - -1.0.1 (3-Feb-03): -- fixed minor but substantial bug preventing child processes - from exiting properly since the counter wasn't being incremented (d'oh!). - Thanks to Mark Blackman for pointing this out. - -- fixed typo in pod docs (Thx to James Sizemore for pointing out) - -######## - -Changes to assassind (1.0.0 initial release of spampd - May 2002): -A different message rewriting method (using - Mail::SpamAssassin::NoMailAudit instead of Dave Carrigan's - custom headers and Mail::Audit); -Adding more options for message handling, network/protocol options, - some options to pass on to SpamAssassin (such as whitelist usage); -More orientation to being used as a content filter for the - Postfix MTA, mostly by changing some default values; -Documentation changes; - -## EOF ##
