Please make a pump to version 1.39. A simple copy from the ebuild to the new version is enough i think.
Significant changes in version 1.39 Version 1.39 was released on January 7, 2006. Here's a list of the most significant changes: * Various log-file-matching $pat improvements in the config file. * Added an $out_pat for UW POP/IMAP, which is useful if you use thunderbird to access your mail via IMAP (or any other mail client that keeps IMAP connections open for a long time). * Some minor improvements to the logic that handles $out_pat. * An improved popauth.m4 file that works with a sendmail configured to use TLS with SMTP. Significant changes in version 1.38 Version 1.38 was released on July 13, 2005. Here's a list of the most significant changes: * Fixed a DB-locking bug if no IPs were found to be active in the startup scan. * Allow the DB-add and DB-delete actions to be overridden so that the pop-before-smtp script can be easily used for other log-file scanning purposes. For instance, the new ip-blocking-conf.pl file demonstrates how to use iptables (or ipchains) to block IPs that are deemed to be undesireable. Significant changes in version 1.37 Version 1.37 was released on May 13, 2005. Here's a list of the most significant changes: * Pop-before-smtp can now handle a client that opens a connection and keeps it open, such as Thunderbird's IMAP handling. To effect this, you need to define an $out_pat in your config file. See the config file for an example that works with Courier POP and IMAP. If you define an $out_pat for a different server, please submit it for inclusion in the next release. Thanks! * The multi-line PID parsing can now handle verbose logging where the $OK_pat does not immediately follow the $PID_pat. This requires defining a $FAIL_pat (see the config file). * Some bugs were fixed, such as some problems in the pattern for Dovecot log-files. * See the ChangeLog for the rest of the changes.
The version 1.41 is out for 1 month. It dosen't get lots of new imporvements but a simple copy from the current ebuild to the version 1.41 is enough.
Bumped in CVS, thanks for reporting (and for the patience)!
