All releases tagged Major feature enhancements
Release Notes: The package is now licensed under GPL version 3. A new MDA working mode has been added. The != ("not match") operator and concatenation operator were implemented. With Guile support enabled, Guile version 1.8.0 or later is required. Handling of regular expressions was fixed, and arbitrary-sized buffers were removed. All memory is now allocated on request. The main configuration file is now processed if the client is recognized or not. Errors in Guile scripts are now caught and displayed early. In previous versions they could cause the subprocess to be aborted. A minor bug in the handling of identd responses was fixed.
Release Notes: In this release, the new authentication and authorization mode has been introduced, which does not require client machines to run an AUTH server (identd). It uses the standard SMTP AUTH capability. The user's database can be kept on the server machine in any of the following formats: plain text, GDBM, MySQL, or PostgreSQL. The program is now extensible via Guile. The configuration file grammar has been heavily improved. It features several new syntactical entities, allows nesting of conditional statements to arbitrary depth, and is easily extended using Guile. A test suite was added.
Release Notes: In this release a new format of plain text databases allows for inclusion of empty fields. Test cases for the AUTH mode (a.k.a. Dixie) were added. The GPGME support has been rewritten to work with GPGME 0.9.0 and newer. The XELO extension has been implemented to speed up the interaction between the Anubis daemon and anubisusr utility. Checking user configuration files on remote machine is much faster due to the use of MD5 sums instead of transferring the entire file contents for comparison.
Release Notes: A new authentication and authorization mode was introduced. In contrast to the method used previously, the new mode does not require client machines to run an AUTH server (identd). It uses standard SMTP AUTH capabilities and can therefore be used with most contemporary MUAs. A user's database can now be kept on the server machine in plain text, GDBM, MySQL, or PostgreSQL databases.
Release Notes: This is a pre-release (early state) before version 4.0. The message processing algorithm was changed to process a message as a whole. Many changes, bugfixes, and improvements have been made: rewritten configuration files support using yacc and lex, new support for the GNU extension language, rewrites and improvements to Anubis' grammar, a new testsuite (make check), allowing the RULE section in both system-wide and user configuration files, and much more.
Release Notes: Anubis has become a GNU project and is now called "GNU Anubis". The GnuTLS library is now supported by default. Some additional changes and fixes have been made.
Release Notes: Support for the ESMTP authentication (CRAM-MD5 and LOGIN) has been added, which is designed for MUAs that cannot speak the ESMTP AUTH command. The "EXTERNAL" section has been replaced with a translation map for remote or local users. A `msg2smtp.pl' tool was added to the `contrib' directory, which is useful for Mutt users that would like to use Anubis.
Release Notes: A lot of changes, improvements, and fixes have been made. Read the documentation before using this new release.
Release Notes: The documentation has been finally finished (it has been rewritten and improved). Optional support for Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) and libwrap (TCP wrappers) has been added. Many important code changes, improvements, and fixes have been made.
Release Notes: Support for an external clients has been added in this release. Now it is possible to allow an external user to use a local run control file, and process outgoing mail. There is a new ALLOW-EXTERNAL-PROCESSING keyword and the "external table" with the following syntax: "external = [user@]address local = username". Some minor changes have been made.
