SurgeMail features of possible general interest added in recent months (as

- Blacklist ip addresses and block incoming email based on train/spamtrap
hits, see: g_black_isspam
- New settings to prevent/reduce harvesters and hackers, see g_hacker* settings.

(not recommended)

- Disable smtp authentication for non trusted addresses see: g_smtp_auth_off,
g_smtp_auth_ip or g_relay_allow_ip
- Block outgoing email to known phishing addresses (dubious value) g_spam_phishing
"true"
- Setting to reject any email with surbl web content (spam urls) g_surbl_reject
bool (reduces spam but will cause some false positives)
- Check whois info on suspect urls (this is unwise for busy servers as it
may get your server blacklisted with the whois servers) A cache is used to
minimize the load. (g_surbl_reject true) (Requires 4.2g-27, prior to

quota). However, if you can already guarantee the sender, or you don't care
then you can use this setting. This allows your list server (dlist) to send
to SMS numbers, for example.

enable the use of a link to "allow" bounced and/or friends pending
messages. The link returns a page with a verification image, the user enters
the number shown and clicks "Add IP" or "Release message"
depending on the context. In the case of spf allow, this link _replaces_ the
allow email address in the bounce message error string. In the case of friends,
this link is added to the friends confirmation message
(default) and the option to add it to the custom message appears on the custom
message page.
- New: g_late_forward - described
below in late_forward
- New: late_forward - These force late
forwarding and hide the user option on the forwarding page that chooses whether
to get it or not. If the user has already selected late forwarding setting
either of these will not clear that, even if they load and save the forwarding
page. Disabling these settings later will revert it back to the users previous
personal setting as you'd expect.
- New: tellmail list_rcpt - Attempts to list all valid receipt addresses for
the server
- New: tellmail dropfile_import user@domain c:\inbox\fred\mail - This looks
for 'dropfile's one per folder, and creates matching
folders/messages in surgemail (maildir format)
- New: tellmail bull_fwd [domain] - This searches the authent database, locates
all the accounts which forward to a non-local address (and do not also deliver
locally or deliver to a robot or responder) and emails them all the bulletins
they have not yet received.
- New: Support for multiple webadmins added - "surgemail -admin_add"
- New: added mirroring of mfilter.dat and simple.rul files
- New: domainkey web admin interface page added
- New: g_msg_log_extra - The setting
causes extra logging in the msg.log files, it logs user logins and imap fetch
commands (to match the existing pop retr ones).
- New: You can now setup an auto response message and have it automatically
turn off after a set period of time.
- New: tellmail can now use SSL for connections - use -ssl on the command
line.
- New: forward message if smaller than xx (added to end user interface). If
a message arrives which is larger than the specified size, it's not forwarded,
it's delivered locally and a notification message is sent in it's place. This
feature is especially useful to people who are forwarding email to pda devices
with limited storage.
- New: "match exactly", "does not contain", "does
not match exactly" in filters in end user interface.
This feature only works if you use late forwarding (the interface makes this
clear).
- Change: g_forward_illegal - Rules
only apply to non local domains now.
- Change: g_spam_allow & g_con_perip_except
changed to multi settings.
- Change: Instead of sending a confirmation (to a possibly faked address,
which would then be considered spam and cause you to be blacklisted by spamcop
or similar) it gave a 554 error. It did this if the message did not contain
spf headers with "pass" in them. In other words it did this when
spf was disabled or when spf failed. It has been changed so that it only does
it when spf is enabled and fails.
- Change: On startup SurgeMail scans the mail queue, if this takes more than
10 seconds it skips the rest and makes an estimate.

- Fix: crash in domain keys code.
- Fix: rare admin bug that stopped the admin showing any values for settings.
- Fix: If machine A had a unique setting then changes on machine B would cause
that setting to be removed from the config on A.
- Fix: DNS invalid domain - If a dns lookup failed due to a timeout, then
the next lookup for the same domain would fail as if the domain didn't exist
instead of with a timeout error.
- Fix: Pop proxy bug - When using gateway setting(s) and g_proxy_to_gateways
the pop proxy was not being used for users in domains which do not exist in
the config file (i.e. all of them)
