Subject: archivemail 0.7 released with security fixes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Hi folks,
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
archivemail 0.7.0 is ready for download. This release comes with many and
|
||||||
|
important fixes, some of which address security issues; I strongly recommend to
|
||||||
|
upgrade.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Despite the major version change, this is mostly a maintenance release, with
|
||||||
|
notable fixes in the IMAP code. There's actually just one new feature (size
|
||||||
|
stats, see below) if you don't count what in theory was already there, but just
|
||||||
|
didn't work. :-)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Okay, here are my pet items from the changelog, roughly ordered by priority:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Fixed unsafe creation of temporary files in the test suite.
|
||||||
|
This addresses Debian bug #385253, and reading the BTS log, it seems this
|
||||||
|
issue was assigned CVE-2006-4245, although I cannot find any further
|
||||||
|
reference to that CVE. Note that the bug was initially reported to affect
|
||||||
|
archivemail itself, too. This is not correct.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed dotlocking race condition.
|
||||||
|
* IMAP was broken in v0.6.2 and is now working again.
|
||||||
|
* New feature: stats now report the total size of a mailbox and of the archived
|
||||||
|
messages therefrom.
|
||||||
|
* archivemail now writes valid mbox(5) archives and by default mangles From_
|
||||||
|
lines; the latter can be disabled with the new option --dont-mangle (see the
|
||||||
|
man page for the details; see also Debian bugs #250410 and #250402)
|
||||||
|
* archivemail finally converts on-the-wire CRLF to native EOL when saving
|
||||||
|
messages from an IMAP folder.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed IMAP --delete which never worked at all.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed IMAP --dry-run so it doesn't download all messages that would be
|
||||||
|
archived.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed IMAP --size which never worked at all.
|
||||||
|
* archivemail now requires Python version >= 2.3.
|
||||||
|
* Fixed unittest failures.
|
||||||
|
* Distributing man page with the tarball again and fixed distutils setup.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The changes in this release probably better had went into several minor
|
||||||
|
releases, when we would have something like v0.6.6 now, but I was carried away
|
||||||
|
with bugfixing...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In other news, archivemail has new maintainers, namely Peter Poeml and Nikolaus
|
||||||
|
Schulz (that's me, hi!). The former maintainer Brandon Knitter is currently not
|
||||||
|
active on the project.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Cheers,
|
||||||
|
Nikolaus
