This is the maximum time +to wait for the remote to issue the initial SMTP response. This value +is especially useful for dealing with the servers that impose a +delay before the initial reply (most notably "CommuniGate Pro" +ones"). The default value is 30 seconds which should be enough for +most normal servers. See the documentation, node "SMTP Timeouts" for +the detailed discussion. + +* No more `retry' options. + +The `retry' options and pragmas have been removed. The new timeout +control scheme warrants that the polling will take at most the given +interval of time. In particular, that affects: + +** Command line option `--retry' +** Pragma options io-retry and connect-retry + * Bugfixes ** Fix storing the macro values obtained from Sendmail ** Collect zombie subprocesses as soon as possible ** Fix arithmetical expression syntax in rc.mailfromd ** Fix multiple from address handling +** Fix race condition when using GDBM Version 3.0, 2006-11-05 |
