Hi,

The latest beta is at the usual
http://www.roaringpenguin.com/mimedefang/#download

Very few changes from 2.29, but one that's major enough to need some
wider testing:  You can define a filter_cleanup function that gets called
when the slave is about to exit (because the multiplexor wants to kill it.)
This lets you free resources that might survive a process exit.  The only
such resources I can think of offhand are System-V IPC objects (shared memory,
semaphores and message queues), but hey...

Anyway, please read mimedefang-filter(5) for all the details about
filter_cleanup().

Full changelog against 2.29 follows.

Regards,

David.

	* mimedefang-multiplexor.c: Add handling for filter_cleanup, that
	lets you run Perl code just before a slave is killed.  Based on
	a suggestion by Brian Landers.
