Comment 1 Shaun Guth 2003-11-06 15:41:13 UTC
Can we have the CAPA patch applied soon?  It causes evolution (and possibly
other clients) to hang indefinitely unless you specifically disable pop3
extensions in the client (something most end-users won't know how to do).
 It is a very trivial patch.

Also, the netscape progress bar patch has been found!  The bug links to qmail.com,
but the patch is on qmail.org.  Another trivial patch to add :)

I'll do up a new ebuild with these patches if nobody claims it by tomorrow
:)

57622
67810
71418 - commented out by default

Comment 5 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2004-12-10 01:38:51 UTC
another one to add, simple patch from 68173 
Comment 6 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-04 13:36:24 UTC
qmail-1.03-moreipme is already included as of r15 and r16.
Comment 8 Denis Kot 2005-05-07 04:55:56 UTC
I thing qmail-tap is better than qmail-maillog, so can you add this patch instead qmail-maillog?
Comment 9 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-07 06:01:38 UTC
Yes, I'll look into it this weekend.
Comment 10 Denis Kot 2005-06-03 08:56:03 UTC
so, what about qmail-tap?
Comment 11 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-08 12:27:56 UTC
qmail-tap is not going to make it into qmail-1.03-r16. It will be scheduled for
-r17. QMAIL_EXTRA is implemented trough bug 90631.
Comment 12 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-13 07:43:08 UTC
Moving depending bugs to bug 95892.
Comment 13 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-13 08:06:49 UTC
qmail-1.03-r16 is now in ~ARCH. Please test it as much as you can and report at
bug 40486 wether it works or not.
Comment 14 Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-01-03 03:02:40 UTC
mail-mta/netqmail is in portage since a long time
