+(317) 25-Feb-05 S Delete the pid file when the daemon exits
+
+At least try to catch some of the exit routes from the daemon and either delete
+or empty the pid file.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(318) 02-Mar-05 S Add current connection count to daemon's exiwhat output
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(319) 03-Mar-05 ? Allow file rather than directory for scanning call
+
+"I can call arbitrary scanning software by specifying the full path. I can pass
+a directory to be scanned in the arguments. I'd like to be able to pass a
+specific file name instead of a directory. I think this would allow me to call
+Bogofilter at smtp time. Bogofilter requires a filename, not a directory. The
+file would contain the complete email. I suppose there may be other scanning
+solutions with a similar requirement."
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(320) 03-Mar-05 T Options to control daemon retry binding
+
+Currently the daemon tries 10 times at 30-second intervals to listen on an IP
+address. The wish is for options to control these numbers.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(321) 07-Mar-05 S Run an ACL on a sync error
+
+... and possibly "accept" or "deny" it.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(322) 15-Mar-05 M Add a /defer_ok option to verify=reverse_host_lookup
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(323) 15-Mar-05 M Make callouts use smtp_data from the smtp transport
+
+This is yet another problem caused by duplicating the SMTP code between the
+transport and the callout verification. See item 294 above. Merging the
+transport and the callout code could prevent this kind of thing from happening.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(324) 04-Apr-05 ? Make -bP show ACLs
+
+This is in the Bugzilla as #10.

+
+(325) 28-Apr-05 ? Support for quotas over 2G in appendfile.
+
+Things get bigger far more quickly than I ever imagine...
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(326) 03-May-05 ? Queue-only on memory shortage
+
+This is bugzilla #17. The idea is to have something like queue_only_load that
+triggers on a shortage of main memory.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(327) 06-May-05 ? Break delay if connection drops
+
+Currently, "delay=5m" (e.g.) waits for 5 minutes. If we can detect that the
+connection has died in the meantime, it would make sense to break the delay.
