Ifmail 2.10 - FidoNet mailer and gateway for U*IX platform (URGENT)
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
PLEASE UPGRADE BEFORE Jul 27th (see below)!
Ifmail is a set of FidoNet(tm) compatible transport and gateway
programs, running on multiple U*IX platforms (Linux, FreeBSD, SCO, SVR4,
SunOS and others). In cooperation with typical U*IX e-mail and netnews
packages, it allows to make a FidoNet node (or point) on a machine
running U*IX.
ifmail-2.10.tar.gz (288510 bytes) and related materials can be found at
http://www.**-**.com/
ftp://www.average.org/pub/ifmail/
and should be soon available for ftp at:
ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/sources/usr.bin/
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Fido/
MD5(ifmail-2.10.tar.gz)= f33731b51ece3556a59532d55ef16844
Aside from usual bugfixes, there are two significant changes:
- - Eric Young's lhash is used instead of linear search on the areas list.
Should inprove performance if you have a huge list.
- - IMPORTANT!!! On Jul 27 10:40:00 GMT the algorithm for ^aMSGID
generation will switch (the current one proved to be suboptimal in
many cases).
YOU ARE URGED TO UPGRADE BEFORE THIS DATE!
If you don't, ifmails on different nodes will generate different
^aMSGIDS for the same original message, which may cause unnecessary
duplicates on the Fidonet side.
