72     versions of PGP.
73     Messages in mail folders can be deleted. Nym

88     2000-06-29 2.9beta23 Bug fix for nym creation with several newsgroups
89     reply blocks (by Gerd Beuster).
90     --nym option bug fix (by Adam Back).
91    
92     2001-09-11 2.9beta24 Changed pool.c to allow Mixmaster keys to pass
93     even when binary blocking is enabled. Note that
94     the solution is not a nice one: It does not
95     recognize Mix keys, it simply allows 10 lines of
96     binary garbage instead of 3. This should be enough
97     for Mix keys to come through (by Peter Palfrader).
98     Fixed a bug in pgpdata.c affecting v3 OpenPGP keys.
99     (by Michael Young).
100

103     Palfrader).

108     O'Hanlon).
109     Patches merged (by Len Sassaman).
110    
111     2001-09-17 2.9beta30 Version renamed to avoid conflicts with other
112     unofficial releases.
113    
114     2001-09-19 2.9beta31 Fixed a bug in mime.c that sometimes resulted in
115     malformed text attachments (by Michael Young).
116     Better error handling (by Scott Renfro).
117     Added support for multiple dest.blk files. This
118     is needed for the Remailer Abuse Blocklist (by
119     Markus Stöger).
120     Added support for remailer-adminkey replies to
121     provide a better way for remops to distribute
122     their keys. (by Markus Stöger).
123     Fixed errors with pcre2.08 (by Rodney Thayer).
124     Added long command option --type-list for the -T
125     option, and updated help (by Len Sassaman).
126     Removed redundant "encoded" variable in mime.c.

144     segfaults with chains greater than 20 remailers.
145 rabbi 42 Non-multipart MIME message errors fixed.
146 rabbi 28 Fixed an error in rfc822.c (by Scott Renfro).

148     No longer permits automatic blocking of entire
149     domains or newsgroups.
150 rabbi 24 Help files re-written (by Lucky Green).
151 rabbi 57 Fixed inconsistencies between software name and
152     package name.
153 rabbi 75

155 rabbi 84 Partial packets now properly expire if not
156 rabbi 85 reassembled (by cmeclax).

169     Reworked the OpenSSL version check in the
170     Install script.
171 weaselp 94
172 rabbi 128 2002-08-09 2.9b36 Removed duplicate define of NYMDB from menu.h.
173 weaselp 96 Fix a strncat() to undefined string variable in
174 weaselp 99 mix.c (Closes: #584381).
175 weaselp 97 Have the Makefile list all prerequisites for each
176 weaselp 99 build target (Closes: #584386).
177     Change »majordomo@*« to »majordomo@« in default
178     dest.blk. The dest block engine does not under-
179     stand shell globs. Either substring matches or
180     regexen.
181 weaselp 103 Fixed -T switch: if type2.list is not available fall
182     back to pubring.mix.
183     USE_IDEA is no longer default in config.h. It always
184     gets defined by the Install script instead.
185 weaselp 104 Only create OpenPGP RSA keys if we compiled with
186     IDEA.
187 weaselp 105 Make all filenames configurable in mix.cfg.
188     Add global mix.cfg support (compile time option).

195 weaselp 115 Fix public remailer keys getting re-signed
196     every time keys are requested (Closes: #478383).
197 weaselp 116 Make smtp sending similar to local /usr/lib/sendmail
198 rabbi 252 sending (wrt header/body separation;
199 weaselp 119 Closes: #482052).
200 weaselp 116 Add X-Loop header on mailbox forwarded messages.
201 weaselp 120 Several small fixes by Sami Farin et al.
202 weaselp 131 Detach correctly in daemon mode.
203 rabbi 128 Minor Install script fixes.
204 weaselp 131
205 rabbi 145 2002-08-20 2.9b37 OpenPGP enhancement release (fixes by Disastry).
206     Fix a small bug in pgpdata.c that stopped Mixmaster
207 rabbi 135 from reading cipher preferences.
208 weaselp 132 Fixed Passphrase reading in mpgp (the test program)
209 rabbi 135 on Windows platform.
210     Add Hash: header when clearsigning.
211     Properly handle RSA keys whose key size is not a
212     multiple of 64.
213     Remove leading zeros from MPI.
214     Use MDC packets whenever possible.
215     List CAST5 and AES128 in cipher preferences.
216 rabbi 145 Now displays Mixmaster version in the PGP version
217     header for non remailer/nym messages.
218 weaselp 153
219 rabbi 252 2002-09-11 2.9b38 Install script deals with lack of patented IDEA
220     algorithm in a sane way (closes: #479020).
221     Compiled-in passphrase is now deprecated.
222     When expiring packet ids from id.log also expire
223     packets that are dated more than half a year in
224     the future. That way we get rid of invalid
225     packets introduced by the switch to a binary file.
226     The stats in remailer-stats replies always had a
227     peak at 00:00 GMT which was wrong. Fixed.
228     (closes: #597688).
229     Fixed a bug with reading armored keyrings consisting
230     of more than one armored block or having comments
231     in front of the one armored block.
232     In RSA PGP keys, we now set e=0x11.
233     Mixmaster now deletes error and temporary files
234     older than PACKETEXP time along with expired
235     partial packets.
236     Linux PPC fixes (and all other archs where char is
237     unsigned).
238    
239     2002-??-?? 2.9b39 Applied Maildir feature patch by drt@un.bewaff.net,
240 weaselp 153 with some changes by PP:
241     MAILBOX can now be a Maildir (closes: #586223).
242 weaselp 163 New option MAILIN that can be set to either a mbox
243     or Maildir folder. New mail will be read from it
244     and the folder cleared every time Mixmaster
245 weaselp 184 processes its pool, or at MAILINTIME intervals
246     (closes: #597043).
247 rabbi 218 When sending type II messages interactively you may
248 weaselp 165 now choose a middleman remailer as the last hop
249     in your chain (closes: #481244).
250 weaselp 166 If a footer.txt file exists its content will be
251     appended to outgoing messages leaving the remailer
252     network at this hop (closes: #490117).
253 rabbi 252 List known Mixmasters/cpunks in remailer-conf reply
254 weaselp 172 (closes: #480330).
255 rabbi 187 Mixmaster in daemon mode reloads configuration on
256     SIGHUP. Upon receiving SIGTERM or SIGINT it will
257     finish its current queue run and then exit
258     successfully.
259     The secret pgp keyring is now stored ASCII armored
260     with one key per ascii armor.
261 weaselp 185 NB: Due to the bug with reading armored keyrings and
262 rabbi 252 secring being stored armored now, it is not
263     advisable to downgrade Mixmaster unless special
264     action is taken to preserve the secret pgp
265 rabbi 187 keyring.
266     Mixmaster now prompts for secret key passphrase when
267     started in daemon mode.
268 rabbi 218 The Mixmaster daemon now writes a pid file.
269 weaselp 203 The files created with "SENDMAIL outfile" have
270     different names now to scale beyond 10k files
271     (closes: #587593).
272 weaselp 214 Mixmaster keys now have creation and expiration date.
273     It is not secured by any crypto voodoo, it's only
274     informational for clients to decide which keys to
275     use should they have more.
276     - on the client side we do not show remailers (and
277     therefore not use them) if their key is expired.
278     - the remailer refuses to decrypt messages to keys
279     that expired one month ago or earlier.
280 rabbi 252 - the remailer automatically creates new Mixmaster
281 rabbi 218 keys if the current ones are about to expire or
282 weaselp 214 already are expired.
283     - the latest key from secring.mix is written to
284     key.txt. It used to be the first one. Since
285     creation of new mix key appends the key, this
286     seemed sensible.
287 rabbi 218 Mixmaster now generates dummy messages automatically
288 weaselp 228 as mail enters and exits the pool.
289 weaselp 278 Mixmaster now handles CRLF in pubring.mix.
