exim4 (4.77~rc4-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream release candidate.
+ drop patches included in this release.
(80_gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.diff 80_gnutls_initrc.diff
80_TLS1.2-and-TLS1.1-support.diff)
+ New expansion conditions, "inlist", "inlisti".
+ Exim no longer performs string expansion on the second string of
the match_* expansion conditions: "match_address", "match_domain",
"match_ip" & "match_local_part". Named lists can still be used. The
previous behavior made it too easy to create (remotely) vulnerable
configurations. A more detailed rationale and explanation can be found
on
https://lists.exim.org/lurker/message/20111003.122326.fbcf32b7.en.html
+ doc/pcrepattern.txt is not shipped anymore as part of the exim tarball
(and therefore the Debian package suite.)
* Make use of /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk if available.
* Change build system to build each binary variant in a separate copy of
the source tree instead of re-using the copy and moving away the results
after build. The old approach stopped working since upstream added a
dependency on make all to make install. - As we were changing parts of
tree (Local/Makefile) after the build this caused an (incorrect) rebuild
on make install.

* Unfuzz EDITME*diff.
* Dependency changes:
+ Drop exim4-config's conflicts with bash (<< 2.05). This was relevant
pre-sarge.
+ Drop exim4-daemon-* dependency on exim4-base (>> 4.71-2). This one is

Closes: #606527
+ 1_cfile_norw_eximuid: Don't allow a configure file which is writeable by
the Exim user or group.
+ 2_permcheck_configurefile: Check configure file permissions even for
non-default files if still privileged.
+ 3_remove_ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY: Remove ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY build option,
effectively making it always true.
+ 4_FD_CLOEXEC: Set FD_CLOEXEC on SMTP sockets after forking in the
daemon, to ensure that rogue child processes cannot use them.
+ 5_TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST: Add TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST compile option.
+ 6_nonroot_system_filter_user: If the system filter needs to be run as
root, let that be explicitly configured. The default is now the Exim
run-time user.
+ 7_filter_D_option: Add a (compiletime) whitelist of acceptable values
for the -D option.
+ 8_updatedocumentation: Update documentation to reflect the changes.
* Build with WHITELIST_D_MACROS=OUTGOING. Post patch 7_filter_D_option exim
will not regain root privileges (usually necessary for local delivery) if
the -D option was used. Macro identifiers listed in WHITELIST_D_MACROS are
exempted from this restriction. mailscanner (4.79.11-2.2) uses -DOUTGOING.
* Build with TRUSTED_CONFIG_LIST=/etc/exim4/trusted_configs. Post patch
3_remove_ALT_CONFIG_ROOT_ONLY exim will not re-gain root privileges
(usually necessary for local delivery) if the -C option was used. This
makes it impossible to start a fully functional damon with an alternate
configuration file. /etc/exim4/trusted_configs (can) contain a list of
filenames (one per line, full path given) to which this restriction does
not apply.

* introduce a E4BCD_PANICLOG_NOISE variable containing a regexp.
Paniclog is negatively filtered against that regexp and paniclog
warning is only sent out if unfiltered lines remain. This is to allow

outgoing connections). Make it easier to enable debug logging.
* Mention in the comments of the default RCPT ACL that verification

__db.retry, __db.misc, __db.callout and __db.wait* (which afaik are
Berkeley DB internal files). If these are somehow broken strange errors
occur, e.g. #360696. As we are deleting the whole db, deleting these files
seems to be a good idea. (am)

- use awk instead of sed in exim4-config.postinst (Thanks, Barry Kitson).
- use printf '%s\n' "$foo" instead of echo "$foo". (echo in dash would
swallow the second backslash)
- actually making this work requires changes in debconf, too,
see #306134.

- apply upstream patch from
http://www.exim.org/mail-archives/exim-users/Week-of-Mon-20050425/msg00035.html
in some circumstances, exim writes parts of /etc/passwd and/or
/etc/group to the reject log. This scares people. (mh)

exim4 (4.43-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Now that 4.44 is released upload 4.43 to unstable. ;-) Merge experimental
and unstable changelog.
* More lintian overrides. ("X" in eximon4's description has to be capital,
and we take care to only use settitle if it is available.
* make nullmailer setup and the way we use mailname a lot more sensible,
attacking #244095 and #280207:
- mailname is not implicitely made a local domain, instead it is listed
explicitly in dc_other_hostnames, where users can easily remove it
from. (This is basically what postfix does, too.) When upgrading
existing installations mailname is automatically added _once_ to
dc_other_hostnames, on fresh installations mailname is the default
value of dc_other_hostnames. We store the fact that we have added
mailname to dc_other_hostnames in $dc_mailname_in_oh in
update-exim4.conf.conf.
- Make exim work correctly if dc_readhost ("visible, rewritten domain name
for local users") ends up as part of local_domain, which happens if
the same value is chosen for mailname and dc_readhost. This
implemented by new router, hub_user_smarthost. Previously users were
required to use something different (my.invalid.domain) for mailname.
- Special thanks to Christian Perrier for taking care of the
template translation updates.
* We did not substitute the current value into the debconf templates with
db_subst but showed the old ones from the previous debconf run.
* /etc/exim4/email-addresses is ignored now, please use /etc/email-addresses!
* Bosnian (bs.po) translation is complete (Thanks Adis Nezirovic).
* Includes de.po change suggested in #286525.
* One-line fix for incorrect fi.po translation by Kalle Olavi Niemitalo.

* Slovak translation of debconf templates by Peter Mann (Closes: #245809)
* Add comment in configuration file documenting that effective retry times
depend on _both_ retry-rules and frequency of queue running. Keep
default QUEUEINTERVAL at 30m because running the queue can be quite
expensive and because therespective RFCs suggest 30m as minimal waiting
time. (Closes: #242426)
* Installation over serial console/minicom only has a screen size of 80
characters x 24 lines available. Sigh. Shorten config-type question by
cutting down the introduction. (Closes: #244464). Shorten relay-net
question by replacing a unnecessarily complicated formulation with a
clearer one which closes: #226809.
* Debconf supports masquerading as a different host with rewriting not only
for "satellite" but also for "smarthost" system. (Closes: #229911).
- Introduces another but hopefully last pre-sarge template change.
(This includes final versions of the templates without the dead
references to "satellite" which closes: #229902.)
- Rewrite /this/ stuff at smtp transport time. /etc/email-addresses
rewriting still uses normal rewriting because it always has and because
it is easier to setup.
- This still does not address one basic issue, the misuse of /etc/mailname
for qualifying recipeints because this needs clarification in policy
_and_ changing MUAs to not do this. Therefore I declare this post-sarge.
- Thanks to Chris Cheney for the kick, and to Adam Conrad and Wouter
Verhelst for their help.
* Add two fixes from upstream:
- Change 4.31/55 was buggy and broke sender address rewriting and caching.
- Change 4.24/6 broke the SIGALRM handler with deliver_drop_privilege.
* README.TLS.gz and the actual configuration disagreed (Thanks, Richard
Lamont).

spamassassin tofix evaluation of DNS lists, compensating for
ChangeLog 4.31/66. (Closes: #242730)
* Remove obsolete reference to auth_over_tls_hosts from documentation.

* Use the normal user account set-up during installation as default
destination for delivery of mail for root. (Joey Hess)
* Shorten exim4/dc_postmaster template to fit on console. (Joey Hess)
(Closes: #242303)
* In template suggest using real-foo to force local delivery.
(Closes: #229909)
* Template changes reviewed by debian-l10n-english. There might still be
more changes, translators should probably wait a little bit longer before
updating the translation.
* On fresh installations smarthost profile only listens on loopback per
default. - There are valid uses of "smarthost" that require listening on
public interfaces but the most common one (dialup) does not.
* Ship README.Debian.UUCP by Andreas Barth in /usr/share/doc/exim4-base. -

exim4 (4.20-3) unstable; urgency=low
* hub_user router: set correct .ifdef, remove superficial condition=
* don't generate main/03_exim4-config_neverusers dynamically, use
a DEBCONF_foo pattern that is replaced by up-ex4.conf. exim4 should
now play nicely with readonly /etc.
* Enable exim-filter in .forward per default. (Closes: #201827)
* Enable maildrop-delivery for users with ~/.mailfilter
* Easier setup of client side SMTP authentification:
-short README file.
-passwd.client example shipped in CONFDIR
-30_exim4-config_examples:
+change order, prefer cram-md5.
+enable by default (auth-plain and -login only for TLS protected
connections). They remain inactive while hosts_try_auth is
disabled.
* add comments listing the filename to the files in conf.d that were
changed anyway. Addresses part of 202040.
* remove misleading comments about "bottom of file" or "see below"
from config-snippets. (Closes: #202165)
* Disable orphaned inetd-entries from exim (v3) caused by bugs #202670 and
#182206 in exim4-config's postinst. I'll close #201143 manually.
* Restructure and clarify README.Debian and polish update-exim4.conf(8).

(Report and fix by Marc Merlin) * Build-Depend on libgnutls7 * Preserve comments in update-exim4.conf.conf by first adding missing items and replacing the values with sed instead of regenerating file from scratch (Closes: #184099) * Set return_path_add, delivery_date_add and envelope_to_add for maildir-transport (Closes: #196178) * Use email-addresses file in /etc/ instead of in /etc/exim4 as exim3 does, exim4-config now needs to conflict with exim,exim-tls. We still include code for evaluating the old file if it exist, but suggest moving the contents to the new file in NEWS.Debian. postinst will remove old orphaned file if it is unmodified. (Closes: #197136) * Set return_fail_output instead of return_output on address_pipe transport. (Closes: #201280) * Stop generating rewriting rules dynamically, exim4 accepts any "address-list" item as source-pattern for rewriting. (Changelog entry obfuscated on purpose, read exim4debian for painful details.). Remove old dynamically generated files in postinst if they were managed by upex4conf. * daemon-light supports TLS (Closes: #193596)

these need to add this the other way round, too (TODO).
- move symlinks for sendmail, mailq, rmail, rsmtp and their manpages (+the one
for newaliases) to the daemon-packages.
- no more non-debhelper-generated exim4-base.prerm, simplified

with uninstalled exim 3 - the exim3-init script started the exim4-daemon.
Ship symlink /usr/lib/exim4/exim -> /usr/sbin/exim4 and set BIN_DIRECTORY

patch 7 files in src.

flavours
* each of the flavours only contains only /usr/sbin/exim4 and a manpagelink
exim4--->exim - there is no need to provides/confl/repl: mta, because

/etc/init.d/exim-base.
* Fix some inconsistencies in the postsinst related to the above that
made lintian scream
* Remove the --exec option when stopping the daemon in the init script,

* Added slave alternatives for mailq, sendmail etc.
* Removed daemon packages conflicting with mail-transport-agent,
although this isn't good-- the deamon packages don't conflict with
each other (they use alternatives to arrange themselves), but do
conflict with other MTAs that install
/usr/lib/sendmail|/usr/sbin/sendmail links. Urnf.

better, and exim isn't made into a pure virtual package while other
packages depend on it. Moreover, mail-transport-agent is provided by
each of the daemon packages, not exim-base, since having exim-base
alone is not sufficient to have an MTA.
