Hello Dovecot users,
The upcoming release includes quite a few new features for a change. The most important ones are the Sieve discard-script feature and the new vnd.dovecot.config environment items. Documentation for these features can be found in the package itself.
Please test these thoroughly.
Changelog v0.4.16:
- Part of the Sieve extprograms implementation was moved to Dovecot, which means that this release depends on Dovecot v2.2.26+.
- ManageSieve: The PUTSCRIPT command now allows uploading empty Sieve scripts. There was really no good reason to disallow doing that.
- Sieve vnd.dovecot.report extension:
- Added a Dovecot-Reporting-User field to the report body, which contains the e-mail address of the user sending the report.
- Added support for configuring the "From:" address used in the report.
- LDA sieve plugin: Implemented support for a "discard script" that is run when the message is going to be discarded. This allows doing something other than throwing the message away for good.
- Sieve vnd.dovecot.environment extension: Added vnd.dovecot.config.* environment items. These environment items map to sieve_env_* settings from the plugin {} section in the configuration. Such values can of course also be returned from userdb.
- Sieve vacation extension: Use the Microsoft X-Auto-Response-Suppress header to prevent unwanted responses from and to (older) Microsoft products.
- ManageSieve: Added rawlog_dir setting to store ManageSieve traffic logs. This replaces at least partially the rawlog plugin (mimics similar IMAP/POP3 change).
- doveadm sieve plugin: synchronization: Prevent setting file timestamps to unix epoch time. This occurred when Dovecot passed the timestamp as 'unknown' during synchronization.
- Sieve exprograms plugin: Fixed spurious '+' sometimes returned at the end of socket-based program output.
- imapsieve plugin: Fixed crash occurring in specific situations.
- Performed various fixes based on static analysis and Clang warnings.
The release is available as follows:
