Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020512 catches up on some internal changes
that needed to be implemented long ago. All bugfixes included in
snapshots will be made available for the stable release as well.
The difference between a snapshot and an official release is as
follows: the official release does not change except for bugfixes
and portability patches. New features are tried out in snapshot
releases. Code that works and that stops changing becomes part of
Postfix official version 1.2.
- Header/body checks `reject' messages now log the client hostname
and network address. I believe Craig Sanders asked for this.
- The Postfix SMTP and LMTP clients now properly pass on the MIME
body type information (7BIT or 8BITMIME), provided that the sender
properly specifies MIME body type information via the `SMTP MAIL
FROM' command, via the `sendmail -B' command line option, or via
the Content-Transfer-Encoding: message header.
- The above also applies to mail that is returned as undeliverable.
- All the above changes rely on the presence of additional information
in Postfix queue files: client hostname, client address, SMTP
HELO hostname, and MIME body type. This information is compatible
with older releases, except when you go back to an older Postfix
release and use "postsuper -r" to move already queued mail back
to the maildrop queue. Postfix official version 1.1.9 will be
fully compatible with this information (by ignoring it).

Incompatible changes with Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020512
=========================================================
The Postfix SMTP client no longer uses the CNAME expanded recipient
address when logging delivery or when bouncing mail. This makes
trouble shooting somewhat easier.
Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020512 queue files contain records that
are incompatible with "postqueue -r" on all Postfix versions prior
to 1.1 and release candidates. This happens whenever the sender
specifies MIME body type information via the SMTP `MAIL FROM'
command, via the `sendmail -B' command line option, or via the
Content-Transfer-Encoding: message header.
Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020512 queue files may contain records
that are incompatible with "postqueue -r" on previous 1.1 Postfix
versions and release candidates. This happens whenever the sender
specifies the MIME body type only via the Content-Transfer-Encoding:
message header, and not via `MAIL FROM' or `sendmail -B'.
Major changes with Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020512
==================================================
The Postfix SMTP and LMTP clients now properly pass on the MIME
body type information (7BIT or 8BITMIME), provided that the sender
properly specifies MIME body type information via the SMTP MAIL
FROM command, via the sendmail -B command line option, or via MIME
message headers. This includes mail that is returned as undeliverable.
Implementing MIME body type propagation was a low priority because
qmail didn't implement this, either. However, Postfix will not
convert 8BITMIME content into 7BIT, and probably never will.
Incompatible changes with Postfix snapshot 1.1.9-20020509
=========================================================
The Postfix SMTP server no longer honors OK access rules for
user en domain@postfix-style.virtual.domain, to close a relaying
loophole with postfix-style virtual domains that have @domain.name
catch-all patterns.
The appearance of user en domain1@domain2 addresses has changed. In
mail headers, such addresses are now properly quoted as
"user en domain1"@domain2. As a side effect, this quoted form is now
also expected on the left-hand side of virtual and canonical lookup
tables, but only by some of the Postfix components. For now, it
is better not to use user en domain1@domain2 address forms on the
left-hand side of lookup tables.
Extract from the HISTORY file:
20020509
Safety: don't allow an OK access rule lookup result for
user en domain@postfix-style.virtual.domain. Suggested by
Victor Duchovny, Morgan Stanley. File: smtpd/smtpd_check.c.
Bugfix: quote unquoted address localparts that need quoting.
Files: global/tok822_parse.c, global/quote_82[12]_local.c.
Documentation: simplified the advanced content filtering
example, and included a more advanced example for those
who want to squeeze out more performance without running
multiple Postfix instances. Text by Victor Duchovny, Morgan
Stanley. File: README_FILES/FILTER_README.
20020510
Feature: header/body filters now log the origin of the
message that is being rejected. Files: smtpd/smtpd.c,
qmqpd/qmqpd.c, pickup/pickup.c, cleanup/cleanup_envelope.c,
cleanup/cleanup_message.c. Requested by Craig Sanders, if
I remember correctly.
Feature: the Postfix SMTP client now passes on MIME body
type information (8bit, 7bit) received via SMTP, via MIME
headers, or via the sendmail command line. Files:
global/deliver_request.c, smtpd/smtpd.c, sendmail/sendmail.c,
cleanup/cleanup_envelope.c, cleanup/cleanup_message.c,
cleanup/cleanup_extracted.c, *qmgr/qmgr_message.c,
*qmgr/qmgr_deliver.c, smtp/smtp_proto.c, lmtp/lmtp_proto.c.
20020511
Feature: bounces now specify the proper MIME encoding (8bit,
7bit), depending on the MIME body type information received
via SMTP, via MIME headers, or via the sendmail command
line. Files: global/bounce.c, global/defer.c, global/abounce.c,
bounce/bounce_service.c, bounce/bounce_notify_util.c.
20020512
Cleanup: the SMTP client logged and bounced the CNAME
expanded recipient address, and thereby complicated trouble
shooting. File: src/smtp_proto.c.
Bugfix: the SMTP and LMTP clients bounced the quoted
recipient address, resulting in too much quoting in bounce
reports. Files: src/smtp_proto.c, lmtp/lmtp_proto.c.
