EXIM 4 WISH LIST
----------------
understood.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-(8) 01-Jan-02 S Expand once_repeat in autoreply
-John Jetmore
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
(9) 01-Jan-02 S Headers as well as body in file for autoreply
Florian Laws
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
copies to the same address.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-(73) 17-Jul-02 M Match a list from within a condition
-
-e.g. ${if matchdomain {$domain}{+domainlist} ...
- ${if matchhost {$sender_host_address}{1.2.3.4/10:2.3.4.5/16}...
-
-Thought needed about how to handle host names. This may be too messy to specify
-cleanly.
-
-22-Apr-04: Implemented for domains, addresses, and local parts. Hosts are
-too messy!
-
-The only sensible approach seems to be to allow IP address arguments only.
-Anything else should be diagnosed as an error. However, if a name appears in
-the list, a PTR lookup should be done. This may require a lot of refactoring
-in the code, because of the current assumption that were are (almost) always
-dealing with THE sending host.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
(74) 22-Jul-02 M Extend -bV to do more semantic checking
For example, diagnose "local_hosts" that should probably be "+local_hosts".
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.
This is probably a longish-term thing at the moment. Quotas over 2G are now
supported, but not individual messages; no doubt one day this will be wanted.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

+
+(335) 14-Jun-05 T Re-arrange default configuration
+
+A small niggle which might be worth fixing is the ordering of the ACL in the
+default configuration file. The relay_from_hosts and authenticated clauses
+would be better off before the dnslists examples. However, this should be left
+until a x.x0 release, because of the documentation implications.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(336) 16-Jun-05 M Show recipient(s) after header check failure
+
+The mainlog line for "There is no valid sender in any header line" shows the
+sending host and the envelope sender, but does not show any recipients. There
+has been a request to show recipients. Presumably this should be on some new
+log selector, and it must have a cutoff maximum number of recipients. NOTE: the
+data in the reject log does show the envelope recipients as part of its
+additional data.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(337) 29-Jun-05 S Add "defer" to $recipient_verify_failure
+
+This is for when defer_ok was set when verifying recipients. Since this isn't
+for a failure, we probably also need "ok" for the non-fail case.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(338) 14-Jul-05 M Change to Bind 9 API
+
+Exim uses the original API for calling the DNS resolver. There is a newer API
+available, and noises are being made in some OS that compatibility with the old
+API is going to be dropped. Nevertheless, there are sure to be systems about
+for ages that require the use of the old API. Therefore, we will have to
+implement not only an interface to the new API, but a backwards compatibility
+feature. It would be nice if this was automatic.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+(339) 28-Jul-05 S Log name of maildir file
+
+This wish is for an option to log the name of the file that is written in
+maildir format (e.g. time.pid.host).
