      $Id: RELEASE_NOTES,v 8.1752 2005/09/16 21:05:07 ca Exp $

This listing shows the version of the sendmail binary, the version
of the sendmail configuration files, the date of release, and a
summary of the changes in that release.

8.13.5/8.13.5 2005/09/16
        Store the filesystem identifier of the df/ subdirectory (if it
                exists) in an internal structure instead of the base
                directory. This structure is used decide whether there
                is enough free disk space when selecting a queue, hence
                without this change queue selection could fail if a df/
                subdirectory exists and is on a different filesystem
                than the base directory.
        Use the queue index of the df file (instead of the qf file) for
                checking whether a link(2) operation can be used to split
                an envelope across queue groups. Problem found by
                Werner Wiethege.
        If the list of items in the queue is larger than the maximum
                number of items to process, sort the queue first and
                then cut the list off instead of the other way around.
                Patch from Matej Vela of Rudjer Boskovic Institute.
        Fix helpfile to show full entry for ETRN. Problem noted by
                Penelope Fudd, patch from Neil Rickert of Northern Illinois
                University.
        FallbackSmartHost should also be tried on temporary errors.
                From John Beck of Sun Microsystems.
        When a server responds with 421 to the STARTTLS command then treat
                it as a temporary error, not as protocol error. Problem
                noted by Andrey J. Melnikoff.
        Properly define two functions in libsm as static because their
                prototype used static too. Patch from Peter Klein.
        Fix syntax errors in helpfile for MAIL and RCPT commands.
        LIBMILTER: When smfi_replacebody() is called with bodylen equals
                zero then do not silently ignore that call. Patch from
                Gurusamy Sarathy of Active State.
        LIBMILTER: Recognize "421" also in a multi-line reply to terminate
                the SMTP session with that error. Fix from Brian Kantor.
        Portability: New option HASSNPRINTF which can be set if the OS
                        has a properly working snprintf(3) to get rid
                        of the last two (safe) sprintf(3) calls in the
                        source code.
                Add support for AIX 5.3.
                Add support for SunOS 5.11 (aka Solaris 11).
                Add support for Darwin 8.x. Patch from Lyndon Nerenberg.
                OpenBSD 3.7 has removed support for NETISO.
        CONFIG: Add OSTYPE(freebsd6) for FreeBSD 6.X.
                Set DontBlameSendmail to AssumeSafeChown and
                        GroupWritableDirPathSafe for OSTYPE(darwin).
                        Patch from Lyndon Nerenberg.
                Some features still used 4.7.1 as enhanced status code which
                        was supposed to be eliminated in 8.13.0 because some
                        broken systems misinterpret it as a permanent error.
                        Patch from Matej Vela of Rudjer Boskovic Institute.
                Some default values in a generated cf file did not match
                        the defaults in the sendmail binary. Problem noted
                        by Mike Pechkin.
        New Files:
                cf/ostype/freebsd6.m4
                devtools/OS/AIX.5.3
                devtools/OS/Darwin.8.x
