[Dovecot-news] Released Pigeonhole v0.4.24.rc1 for Dovecot v2.2.36.rc1.

[Stephan Bosch]

Hello Dovecot users,

Here's a first release candidate for the upcoming Pigeonhole release for 
Dovecot v2.2.36. It only contains bugfixes for now. There's one 
experimental plugin still in the pipeline.

Changelog v0.4.24:

- Fix assert panics triggered by empty messages that are being forwarded
   using redirect or vnd.dovecot.report. This does not likely normally
   occur, but this is seen as a result of certain benign failures in
   object storage.
- Make the length of the subject header for the vacation response
   configurable and enforce the limit in UTF-8 codepoints rather than
   bytes. The subject header for a vacation response was statically
   truncated to 256 bytes, which is too limited for multi-byte UTF-8
   characters.
- Sieve editheader extension: Fix assertion panic occurring when it is
   used to manipulate a message header with a very large header field.
- Properly abort execution of the sieve_discard script upon error.
   Before, the LDA Sieve plugin attempted to execute the sieve_discard
   script when an error occurs. This can lead to the message being lost.
- Fix the interaction between quota and the sieve_discard script. When
   quota was used together with a sieve_discard script, the message
   delivery did not bounce when the quota was exceeded.

The release is available as follows:

Refer to http://pigeonhole.dovecot.org and the Dovecot wiki for
more information. Have fun testing this release candidate and don't
hesitate to notify me when there are any problems.

Regards,
