Postfix stable releases 2.4.3 and 2.3.11 are available. Except for
emergencies these will be the last stable releases in a while.

Postfix 2.4.2 and 2.3.10 were released yesterday, but these did
not compile on all the supported platforms. It did not seem right
if some people would have to wait several months for an update.

The files can be found via

ftp://ftp.porcupine.org/mirrors/postfix-release/index.html

and will soon appear on the mirror sites listed at http://www.postfix.org/

Bugfix: don't falsely report "lost connection from
localhost[127.0.0.1]" when Postfix is being portscanned.
Files: smtpd/smtpd_peer.c, qmqpd/qmqpd_peer.c.

20070430

Robustness: recommend a "0" process limit for policy servers
to avoid "connection refused" problems when the smtpd
process limit exceeds the default process limit. File:
proto/SMTPD_POLICY_README.html.

20070501

Safety: when IPv6 (or IPv4) is turned off, don't treat an
IPv6 (or IPv4) connection from e.g. inetd as if it comes
from localhost[127.0.0.1]. Files: smtpd/smtpd_peer.c,
qmqpd/qmqpd_peer.c.

20070508

Bugfix: Content-Transfer-Encoding: attribute values are
case insensitive. File: src/cleanup/cleanup_message.c.

20070514

Bugfix: mailbox_transport(_maps) and fallback_transport(_maps)
were broken when used with the error(8) or discard(8)
transports. Cause: insufficient documentation. Files:
error/error.c, discard/discard.c.

20070520

Bugfix (problem introduced Postfix 2.3): when DSN support
was introduced it broke "agressive" recipient duplicate
elimination with "enable_original_recipient = no". File:
cleanup/cleanup_out_recipient.c.

20070529

Bugfix (introduced Postfix 2.3): the sendmail/postdrop
commands would hang when trying to submit a message larger
than the per-message size limit. File: postdrop/postdrop.c.

20070530

Sabotage the saboteur who insists on breaking Postfix by
adding gethostbyname() calls that cause maildir delivery
to fail when the machine name is not found in /etc/hosts,
or that cause Postfix processes to hang when the network
is down.

20070531

Portability: Victor helpfully pointed out that change
20070425 broke on non-IPv6 systems. Files: smtpd/smtpd_peer.c,
qmqpd/qmqpd_peer.c.
