The doc/ChangeLog file contains a listing of all changes, including bug fixes. +Version 4.62 +------------ + +1. The ${readsocket expansion item now supports Internet domain sockets as well + as Unix domain sockets. If the first argument begins "inet:", it must be of + the form "inet:host:port". The port is mandatory; it may be a number or the + name of a TCP port in /etc/services. The host may be a name, or it may be an + IP address. An ip address may optionally be enclosed in square brackets. + This is best for IPv6 addresses. For example: + + ${readsocket{inet:[::1]:1234}{}... + + Only a single host name may be given, but if looking it up yield more than + one IP address, they are each tried in turn until a connection is made. Once + a connection has been made, the behaviour is as for ${readsocket with a Unix + domain socket. + + +Version 4.61 +------------ + +The documentation is up-to-date for the 4.61 release. Major new features since +the 4.60 release are: + +. An option called disable_ipv6, to disable the use of IPv6 completely. + +. An increase in the number of ACL variables to 20 of each type. + +. A change to use $auth1, $auth2, and $auth3 in authenticators instead of $1, + $2, $3, (though those are still set) because the numeric variables get used + for other things in complicated expansions. + +. The default for rfc1413_query_timeout has been changed from 30s to 5s. + +. It is possible to use setclassresources() on some BSD OS to control the + resources used in pipe deliveries. + +. A new ACL modifier called add_header, which can be used with any verb. + +. More errors are detectable in retry rules. + +There are a number of other additions too. + + Version 4.60 ------------
