Hello,
I've imported Postfix 2.9.5 into NetBSD-current today. It builds and works
fine under NetBSD/i386. Please submit a bug report with "send-pr" in
category "bin" if you find any problems.
Here is a list of the major changes since version 2.8.x:
- Support for long, non-repeating, queue IDs (queue file names). The
main benefit of non-repeating names is simpler logfile analysis. See
the description of "enable_long_queue_ids" in postconf(5) for
details.
- Memcache client support, and support to share postscreen(8) and
verify(8) caches via the proxymap server. Details about memcache
support are in memcache_table(5) and MEMCACHE_README.
- Gradual degradation: if a database is unavailable (can't open, most
read or write errors) a Postfix daemon will log a warning and
continue providing the services that don't depend on that table,
instead of immediately terminating with a fatal error. To terminate
immediately when a database file can't be opened, specify
"daemon_table_open_error_is_fatal = yes".
- Revised postconf(1) command. It warns about unused parameter
name=value settings in main.cf or master.cf (likely mistakes),
understands "dynamic" parameter names such as names that depend on
the name of a master.cf entry (finally, "postconf -n" shows all
parameter settings), and it can display main.cf and master.cf in a
more user-friendly format (postconf -nf, postconf -Mf).
- Read/write deadline support in the SMTP client and server to defend
against application-level DOS attacks that very slowly write or read
data one byte at a time.
Kind regards
