  • You may now use C style /* */ comments in your Ecelerity.conf
  • Added a human readable alternative syntax for setting Debug_Flags. The traditional style is still supported, and the 'write config' console command will emit an out-commented old style Debug_Flags configuration, followed by the new style. Consult the manual for more information on this change.
  • Fully_Resolve_Before_SMTP = true|false to force Ecelerity to complete resolve all pertinent DNS records before it commences SMTP delivery [5436].
  • Support for Linux capabilities [5416].
  • Improved pipe_transport module. Other modules (including interpreters) may set message recipient(s) to |/path/to/command to facilitate dynamic mapping of recipients to pipe processes. Added error_file and output_file configuration options to control the destination of stderr and stdout, respectively.
  • Improved handling of low memory conditions.
  • Added ec_trace_context action to sieve, which adds an X-Trace-Context header to the message. This can be useful when debugging your mail policy.
  • Fixed a segfault with the inbound_audit module, when no configuration is provided.
  • Add core_control_shutdown_hook() that modules may use to gracefully handle shutdown.
  • Feature ticket #5: Reimplementation of ec_stats in C for memory efficiency and speed. It now directly produces XML and is transformed into plan text via XSLT.
  • Fixed ticket #13: errors that occur prior to loading a logging module are now logged to stderr.
  • Feature ticket #53: Reimplementation of memory allocators in assembly for improved performance.
  • Feature ticket #59: Improved async responsiveness for SMTP AUTH
  • Feature ticket #64: Rename the mailfrom_cbv module to smtp_cbv, to reflect that it can now validate based on RCPT TO as well as MAIL FROM.
  • Feature ticket #67: Allow configurable time windowing in throttles. You may specify n/y for throttle settings, which will allow n messages in y seconds. y defaults to 1 if not specified.
  • Fixed ticket #89: force bulk failure operations to run async
  • Fixed ticket #90: when sending mail to domains that have invalid MX records.
  • Feature ticket #97: NULL MX support. http://www.rfc-editor.org/internet-drafts/draft-delany-nullmx-00.txt.
  • Feature ticket #98: Support for Solaris 10, including a ports-based scheduler.
  • Fixed ticket #99: url_ripper missing name to A host extractions that matched previous named RHSBL lookups.
  • Feature ticket #100: expose inbound connections in an aribtrary CIDR mask in sieve for decision making.
  • Fixed ticket #102: pauses on SMTP connections after 55x failures.
  • Fixed ticket #103: Linux on Opteron no uses epoll when available.
  • Feature ticket #104: Allow sieve extensions to add simple and complex tests in addition to functions.
  • Fixed ticket #108: segfaults in regex binding module when performing regex matches on body or headers.
  • Fixed ticket #114: fixed segfault bug in SPFv1 state machine.
  • Fixed ticket #115: SQLite corruption.

Ecelerity version 1.2.10.1 released on 2005-02-04

  • Fixed race in async unlinks that could cuase spool bodies to not be deleted. Work around for 1.2.10 is Async_Unlink_Concurrency = 1. Ecelerity will remove headers with no bodies (an uncommitted message reception), however bodies without headers will be ignored and must be deleted manually.

Ecelerity version 1.2.10 released on 2005-02-03

  • Add Connect_Timeout_To_Delay, for sweeping of domains 'stuck' in the active queue.
  • A large number of per-binding statistics enhancements. Run 'domain yahoo.com' for an example.
  • new binding-aware console commands binding active $BINDINGNAME $THRESHOLD binding delayed $BINDINGNAME $THRESHOLD binding fail domain $BINDINGNAME $DOMAIN binding flush domain $BINDINGNAME $DOMAIN
  • Augment the delivery system to use sendfile(), allows fully asynchronous swapping in of messages not in memory, and incorporates some other related performance enahncements.
  • Additional toggleables for even more aggressive memory management in the event of large queue back pressure. Specifically Drop_Body_After_Trans_Fail = X which allows you to drop out the message bodies (from memory) after X transient failures (setting this to 0 is good for domains that experience a high number of transient failures).
  • Fix for a moderately critical connection allocation algorithm issue that causes very unaggressive connection allocation in some situations.
  • Message_Expiration and Max_Retries as Binding stanza paramters.
  • Provides binding visibility for messages through the showqueue and message details commands.
  • Adds history and tab completion to ec_console
  • Allows greater management of the memory subsystem by the end user via Malloc2MMAP_Threshold = X Which toggles use of anon mmaps over system mallocs past X bytes. This is aimed to reduce heap fragmentation. A suggested value is 4096.
  • Supports a configurable backlog and pool for the message unlinker thread via Async_Unlink_Concurrency = X Async_Unlink_Backlog = Y During some testing under XFS (which appears to perform very poorly), we saw very large amounts of backpressure in the unlink queue. This is not good, so this toggleable will cap that.
  • Outbound_Throttle now support granularity up to 1 message per minute. (Previously was 1 message per second). Still is expressed as a float (messages/second).
