Hi,
MIMEDefang 2.36-BETA-1 is at the download page:
http://www.mimedefang.org/node.php?id=1
The major change from 2.35 is the elimination of stdio from the
last spot where it causes scalability problems. I realize that an
extremely busy production Solaris mail server is not where most people
want to put a beta, but if there's someone out there who can test this
beta on such a machine, I'd appreciate it. It should eliminate the
problem with being unable to read the RESULTS file because of a lack
of stdio streams.
As a bonus, the non-stdio implementation releases the RESULTS file
descriptor more quickly, and that should help scalability in general.
Complete changelog from 2.35 follows. I've been extremely busy
lately; if you've sent me a patch and I dropped it, I apologize -- please
let me know.
Regards,
David.
