MeTA1 Source Code

MeTA1 1.1.Alpha20.1 is available for testing. This release is dedicated to Evil, Inc. - the companies which make up rules senders must follow just so their mails are not immediately rejected (but still misfiled later) -- in this case DKIM signing. There are also several other enhancements and fixes. See the release notes below for more info -- make sure to read the info about the IBDB format change!

Changes compared to MeTA1 1.1.Alpha19.0

2024-05-31 New DKIM related features:
- in the dkim_signing section of smtps two new options have been added: sign_if: with the possible values of "always" (default) and "trusted". For latter the client must have been authenticated via AUTH or STARTTLS (client) and be allowed to relay. rcpt_domains: a list of domains for which a DKIM signature is generated.
- smtpc has a new option dkim_rcpt_domains which can contain a list of domains for which a DKIM signature is added if it has been generated in smtps.
For details, see doc/README.*
2024-05-12 Support "cltname:" field for protectedrcpt to allow for something like cltname:.ietf.org instead of IP addresses which change too often.
2024-04-22 TLSA RRs are now part of the key to lookup up TLS sessions for reuse.
2024/04/06 Macro expansion in milter-regex reject texts has been implemented.
2023-10-01 The format of IBDB has been changed after 1.1.Alpha18, an upgrade from that version (or downgrade to that version) must first clear the queue and remove the ibdb files before starting the target version.
2023-05-01 Note: on some systems configure fails to detect some features (esp. mutex for threads in BDB) because the compiler complains about a missing prototype for exit() in the test program. To avoid this pass -Wno-implicit-function-declaration to the compiler, e.g., CPPFLAGS="-Wno-implicit-function-declaration" /path/to/configure
2023-04-29 DANE: support for type 2-0-x has been enabled if SSL_CTX_dane_enable() is available.
2023-01-22 The enhancement to skip IP addresses of an MX server (2022-10-14) caused a regression: if a domain has multiple MX servers and the last one has multiple IPs and a transaction temporarily fails using one of those IPs then the transaction was never retried.
2022-12-08 Allow to use Hostname_No_Match etc in access map for smtps_se_conf: and cltname:
2022-10-14 If an MX server has multiple IP addresses and the server temporarily rejects a message, then skip all its IP addresses and try the next MX (if available). Multiple IP addresses for the same MX will be only be tried if an SMTP session cannot be established.
