Name : mimedefang
Product : Fedora 13
Version : 2.71
Release : 1.fc13
URL : http://www.mimedefang.org/
Summary : E-Mail filtering framework using Sendmail's Milter interface
Description :
MIMEDefang is an e-mail filter program which works with Sendmail 8.12
and later. It filters all e-mail messages sent via SMTP. MIMEDefang
splits multi-part MIME messages into their components and potentially
deletes or modifies the various parts. It then reassembles the parts
back into an e-mail message and sends it on its way.
There are some caveats you should be aware of before using MIMEDefang.
MIMEDefang potentially alters e-mail messages. This breaks a "gentleman's
agreement" that mail transfer agents do not modify message bodies. This
could cause problems, for example, with encrypted or signed messages.

Update Information:
* More spelunking in the awful innards of Perl reveals that our original fix in 2.70 for handling of $SIG{FOO}... didn't completely fix the problem. On systems where Perl was compiled to use threading, running "md-mx-ctrl reread" could result in subsequent failure by scanners to set signal dispositions. This has been fixed.
* Fix typo in examples/init-script.in
* Fix compatibility with Postfix (broken in 2.70.)
* Fixed a bug in embedded Perl: We have to call PERL_SET_CONTEXT after forking or Perl gets confused. In particular, setting signal-handling dispositions using $SIG{FOO} = sub { ... } breaks.
* Clarify wording of mimedefang-filter man page.
* Remove obsolete code that used to attempt to generate working directory names. Deactivate the no-longer-needed "-M" mimedefang option.
* Add new "-y" option to mimedefang-multiplexor. This limits the number of concurrent "recipok" commands on a per-domain basis.
* Remove Anomy::HTMLCleaner support.
* use MIME::Parser::Filer's ignore_filename() call instead of subclassing to override evil_filename(). Same effect, less code.
* refactor resend_message_one_recipient() to use resend_message_specifying_mode() instead of reimplementing it.
* header_timezone() now generates a strictly RFC2822-compliant timezone string without needing POSIX::strftime()
* Ensure that decode_mimewords() is called in scalar context.
