[Mimedefang] Compilation issue with MIMEDefang 2.55 on FreeBSD 4.10

Wed Feb 1 12:23:12 EST 2006

I attempted to upgrade my two mail relays to MIMEDefang 2.55 (from
2.54), one running FreeBSD 5.4, the other 4.10.  Compilation of
mimedefang.c succeeds on 5.4, but fails on 4.10.  Adding <sys/types.h>
before <sys/socket.h> in mimedefang.h and bracketing { } the section
from line 403 to about 423 in mimedefang.c makes it compile, but since
I'm not a heavy-duty C programmer and haven't gone thru the entire
mimedefang code, I'm reluctant to use it.

I don't normally upgrade the OS on my systems until we get new systems
under our hardware replacement schedule unless there's a serious issue,
since they're in production and there's a risk of extended downtime.  I
suppose I"ll be upgrading sooner this time.

Hello,

MIMEDefang 2.55 is at http://www.mimedefang.org/node.php?id=1.
There are no changes since MIMEDefang 2.55-BETA-4.  Complete changelog
relative to 2.54 follows.

Regards,

David.

2006-01-24  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	*  VERSION 2.55 RELEASED

2006-01-20  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* VERSION 2.55-BETA-4 RELEASED

	* mimedefang.c: The new '-R' option lets you reserve a specified
	number of slaves for connections from localhost.  The idea is to
	try to allow clientmqueue runs to succeed even on heavily-loaded
	systems.

	* Patched to look for more modern "vascan" virus-scanner rather
than
	older "vexira" scanner.  Support for the older Vexira scanner
has
	been dropped; please see README.VEXIRA.  Changes courtesy of
	Matt Selsky and Ken Cormack.

2006-01-18  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* VERSION 2.55-BETA-3 RELEASED

2006-01-17  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* Added support for "filter_helo" function, based on a patch
from
	Philip Prindeville.

	* examples/init-script.in: Fixed typo.

	* mimedefang.c: Use symbolic constants (MD_TEMPFAIL,
MD_CONTINUE,
	etc.) instead of hard-coded integers, based on suggestion from
	Philip Prindeville.

2006-01-11  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* VERSION 2.55-BETA-2 RELEASED

	*  mimedefang.pl.in: The filter_begin function is now passed
	a single argument ($entity) representing the parsed message.

	*** NOTE INCOMPATIBILITY *** filter_begin NOW TAKES ONE
ARGUMENT,
	                             NOT ZERO.  IF YOUR FILTER HAS A
	                             PROTOTYPE FOR filter_begin, YOU
SHOULD
	                             FIX OR REMOVE THE PROTOTYPE

	* mimedefang.c, mimedefang.pl.in: Added new action_insert_header
	to prepend headers (rather than appending them).  Only works
	properly with Sendmail 8.13; on older versions of Sendmail,
falls
	back to action_add_header.  Based on patch from Matthew van
Eerde.

	* mimedefang.pl.in: Added new function md_get_bogus_mx_hosts.
	Allows to test for sender domains with bogus MX hosts (such as
	hosts that resolve to the loopback or private IP addresses.)

	* mimedefang.pl.in: Invoke the "fsav" virus scanner with the
--mime
	option.  Fix courtesy of Mack Wharton.

	* mimedefang.pl.in: Correctly interpret kavscanner return code 9
	(password-protected ZIP.)  Fix courtesy of Mack Wharton.

2005-11-17  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* VERSION 2.55-BETA-1 RELEASED

	* examples/init-script.in: Fix typo that resulted in the shell
	complaining of a syntax error (pointed out by Jason Englander).

	* Clean up man pages by removing some obsolete material.

	* mimedefang.c: Do NOT strip "bare CR" characters from e-mails
by
	default.  The new "-c" command-line option enables the older
behavior.

	*** NOTE INCOMPATIBILITY ***  WE NO LONGER STRIP BARE CR's FROM
	                              MESSAGES BY DEFAULT.  TEST YOUR
FILTERS
	                              CAREFULLY TO MAKE SURE THEY CAN
COPE
	                              WITH THIS, OR USE THE -c FLAG.

	* mimedefang.c(rcptto): If you returned
ACCEPT_AND_NO_MORE_FILTERING
	from filter_recipient, the spool files wouldn't get cleaned up,
	eventually clogging the spool directory.  This has been fixed.

	* mimedefang.pl.in(interpret_hbedv_code): Fix interpretation of
	H+BEDV return codes (pointed out by Henning Schmiedehausen).

2005-11-04  David F. Skoll  <dfs at roaringpenguin.com>

	* VERSION 2.54 RELEASED
