This Space for Rent

New Code! (continued from Friday’s edition)

Postoffice has been upgraded to version 1.3.7 with the addition of one new feature and continued tweaks to the escape-from feature I started to put in to version 1.3.7.

The new feature is that authdb blacklisting has been (properly) implemented. The previous implementation blacklisted entries by setting the delay time to MAXINT(time_t), which becomes less and less useful as it gets closer to 2038. For 1.3.7, I redid it to use a special blacklist token, so the delay time will always remain insultingly large.

The tweaks to escape-from are to have configure.sh check for the existance of memstr() before enabling the built-in one, and now all local deliveries (in 1.3.6, the only place I did from escaping in was delivery to local mailboxes; 1.3.7 fixes that and also does from escaping when piping to executables) will have embedded '^From 's escaped.
