Bang.
For anyone who cares, it compiles beautifully with Marc's SA-Exim 2.2
and David Woodhouse's/dman's dlopen patch (*I* care, namely).
Copied my SA-Exim patched 4.12/Local/* to 4.14, ran the dlopen patch,
compiled.
I shut down my 4.12 service and ran 4.14 out of the compile directory as
'exim -d -bd -q15m' and let a few mails in. 'tail -f' on mainlog, and me
in the xterm daemon debug screen, watching things go by. I can scroll
back 2048 lines when I wish, and when things had quietened down did so.
*WOW*. I didn't get the chance to read the blurb yet, but I'm obviously
going to have to. Philip, I'll buy your book twice, once it's out - you
deserve it, or the difference in Belgian Palm beer the next time you're
in Utrecht.
4.14 is definitely a /major/ release. In as much as it puts the
"competition" that much further behind it (a bit like Ferrari, I'm an
Alfa Romeo person).
This morning, there was a sad Sendmail admin on the SA list, who
wondered if he could stop spammers' dictionary attacks with his MTA and
procmail. Another Sendmail admin told him he'd have a hard time. I let
them see Giuliano's Exim one-liner, hihi.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Exim's ... ecstasy. Gratters
all.
Best,
Tony
