qpsmtpd/UPGRADING


When upgrading from:

v 0.84 or below

CHECK_BASICHEADERS:

    Deprecated 'days' option in favor of past/future. See 'perldoc plugins/check_basicheaders'.


CHECK_RELAY, CHECK_NORELAY, RELAY_ONLY

    All 3 plugins are deprecated and replaced with a new 'relay' plugin. The new plugin reads the same config files (see 'perldoc plugins/relay') as the previous plugins. To get the equivalent functionality of enabling 'relay_only', use the 'only' argument to the relay plugin as documented in the RELAY ONLY section of plugins/relay.

GREYLISTING plugin:

    'mode' config argument is deprecated. Use reject and reject_type instead.

    The greylisting DB format has changed to accommodate IPv6 addresses. (The DB key has colon ':' seperated fields, and IPv6 addresses are colon delimited). The new format converts the IPs into integers. There is a new config option named 'upgrade' that when enabled, updates all the records in your DB to the new format. Simply add 'upgrade 1' to the plugin entry in config/plugins, start up qpsmtpd once, make one connection. A log entry will be made, telling how many records were upgraded. Remove the upgrade option from your config.

SPF plugin:

    spf_deny setting deprecated. Use reject N setting instead, which provides administrators with more granular control over SPF. For backward compatibility, a spf_deny setting of 1 is mapped to 'reject 3' and a 'spf_deny 2' is mapped to 'reject 4'.


P0F plugin:
    defaults to p0f v3 (was v2).

    Upgrade p0f to version 3 or add 'version 2' to your p0f line in config/plugins. perldoc plugins/ident/p0f for more details.

greylisting: added upgrade note 2012-05-21 11:25:47 +02:00			`GREYLISTING plugin:`
SPF plugin: refactored, tests, new config option added POD description of spfquery note changed spf_deny -> reject (and offered 4 more options, see POD for reject) backwards compatible with old config settings replicates qmail-smtpd SPF patch behavior improved logging (again) uses a stringy eval 'use Mail::SPF' in the register sub. If missing, warn and log the error, and don't register any hooks. This is much nicer error than the current, "*** Remote host closed connection unexpectedly." broken mail server that results from enabling the SPF plugin without Mail::SPF installed. background: I noticed I was deferring valid emails with the SPF plugin at 'spf_deny 1', and without changing the code, there wasn't a way to change how ~all records were handled. This provides that flexibility. 2012-05-09 06:03:44 +02:00
