changelog for "mkvalidrcptto"
http://qmail.jms1.net/scripts/mkvalidrcptto.shtml

2012-09-16 jms1

- Added mkvalidrcptto.reject functionality, to create "-" entries, which will
  make the patch explicitly reject mail sent to that address. This allows you
  to reject "user-xyz@domain" while still accepting "user-default@xyz". The
  code to support this has been in the combined patch since v7.0, however on
  2012-07-04 I noticed it wasn't in the stand-alone validrcptto patch.

2010-02-01 jms1

- added "-r" option to show a report of what domains are found and how they
  were classified (i.e. local, alias, virtual, smtp, or unknown)

- added comments in the code to explain the options

2008-09-13 jms1

- NO CHANGES to the "mkvalidrcptto" script itself.

- re-arranged this changelog file to list changes in reverse chronological
  order, since that's how most other "changelog" files seem to do it.

2008-07-14 jms1

- fixed the code for virtual/local users with extensions noted above.
  http://www.ornl.gov/lists/mailing-lists/qmail/2008/06/msg00105.html
  if anybody wants to read the thread about the problem.

2008-07-04 jms1

- adding checks (long overdue) for domain names which are listed in both
  "locals" (or "me") and "virtualdomains", or which are listed in both
  "smtproutes" and "locals" (or "me"), or both "smtproutes" and
  "virtualdomains".

- working on a fix for the code which identifies a virtual/local user to
  satisfy the right side of a virtualdomains line, so that it handles names
  with extensions (i.e. "joe-list" would search first for "joe-list", then
  for "joe".) thanks to Christopher Weimann for pointing out the problem,
  and for helping to test the various tries at fixing it.

2007-06-18 jms1

- adding logic to the "-c blah.cdb" code so that if the cdb file already
  contains the same data which would be written (i.e. if the data hasn't
  changed) then it doesn't write a new file. this way the time stamp of the
  cdb file will reflect the last time it was re-written. also adding "-d"
  option to enable debug messages.

2007-06-06 jms1

- adding options to change output format. with no options it just prints the
  list, one address per line. with "-m", the output is suitable for feeding
  directly into "cdbmake". with "-c blah.cdb", it will create "blah.cdb"
  directly.

2007-06-02 jms1

- adding a warning message for vpopmail domains which don't have
  "bounce-no-mailbox" associated with them. thanks to Joey DiJulio and
  Patrick "marlowe" MacDonald for the suggestion.

2007-03-06 jms1

- there seems to be a rash of people adding blank lines to their
  "rcpthosts" and "morercpthosts" files... adding explicit error
  messages about this.

2006-12-11 jms1

- adding logic to correctly handle cases where somebody puts a normal email
  address (instead of a domain) in the virtualdomains file.

2006-11-29 jms1

- adding logic to work around the case where users/cdb just plain doesn't
  exist (which can happen on systems which don't use vpopmail etc.) thanks
  to "Eric d'Alibut" on djb's qmail mailing list for pointing it out.

2006-03-26 jms1

- fixed a minor typo in the text of an error message (which does not affect
  how the script works.) Thanks to Robin Bowes for pointing it out.

2006-02-05 jms1

- adding an "exclude" list, for addresses which you may not want to include
  in the output (i.e. private mailing list aliases and things like that.)
  also fixed a bug in the code which handles the user-ext separator
  character.

2006-01-12 jms1

- making the script work correctly in the unlikely case that the user-ext
  separator character was changed, either by changing conf-break before
  compiling qmail, or specifying a custom value in the users/cdb file.

2006-01-11 jms1

- vpopmail has a "--enable-qmail-ext" option which changes how mailbox
  names are handled. if vpopmail is running WITH this option, every
  vpopmail mailbox has an implied "-default" alias whether there's a
  .qmail-user-default file there or not. thanks to robin bowes for
  pointing this out.

2006-01-08 jms1

- fixed a typo, thanks to "marlowe" for pointing it out.

2005-12-29 jms1

- adding an array of numeric uid's (empty by default) which will be ignored
  when system uid's are scanned. thanks to roman volf for the suggestion.

2005-12-07 jms1

- after reviewing qmail-send.c and controls.c, it turns out that the "me"
  becoming part of "locals" only happens if the "control/locals" file does
  not exist... otherwise an empty "control/locals" file means that there are
  no locals. updating the script to duplicate this logic. also replacing ":"
  with "." in .qmail filenames. thanks to jeff hedlund for pointing me
  towards the "me" problem, and for pointing out my oversight with the ":"
  thing.

2005-11-29 jms1

- now treats missing vpopmail directory as a warning rather than a fatal
  error.

2005-10-24 jms1

- adding a "-n" switch to generate a list without the system accounts (i.e.
  no "locals" or "me" domains will be printed.) note that "fastforward"
  aliases are considered local, since they are processed through the local
  delivery mechanism.

2005-08-03 jms1

- turns out if vpopmail is compiled with support for mysql, the "valias -s"
  command doesn't list aliases which exist by virtue of .qmail-blah files...
  which rather sucks, because this is how ezmlm sets up the aliases it
  needs, by creating .qmail-blah files. thanks again to Roman Volf for
  pointing this out.

2005-07-17 jms1

- domains listed in smtproutes are currently listed as just "@domain",
  meaning the entire domain is accepted without any checks done for
  individual userid's. adding code so that you can create a directory full
  of files named for the domains, containing userid's which exist in that
  domain. thanks to roman volf for the suggestion.

2005-06-30 jms1

- when vpopmail stores everything in a mysql database, aliases are
  apparently not represented by .qmail files at all. it looks like we have
  no choice but to use the vpopmail command-line tools to get the lists of
  mailboxes and aliases in the domain. thanks to Rob Pitt for telling me
  that this wasn't working (i don't use vpopmail with mysql so i had no way
  to know that this would be a problem.)

2005-06-29 jms1

- translating ":" to "." in .qmail-* filenames... i forgot that qmail-local
  does this. somebody emailed me to remind me about this, but i can't find
  the email so i don't know who to thank for reminding me about this...

2005-06-23 jms1

- changed the search pattern when reading "vuserinfo -D" to get a vpopmail
  domain's mailbox list, instead of recognizing \w+ it now uses \S+ which
  should allow "." in mailbox names

2005-06-18 jms1

- finishing support for .qmail-* files in local user home directories... i
  don't ever use local users for mailboxes myself, so it wasn't an issue for
  me, but somebody out there may be doing it, so...

2005-06-09 jms1

- adding support for "fastforward" aliases.

2005-05-09 jms1

- changing the vpopmail user info process. instead of reading vpasswd.cdb,
  using "vuserinfo -D {domain}" and parsing that output. this should include
  mysql user information for people who are using vpopmail with mysql.
  Thanks to Roman Volf on the qmailrocks mailing list for pointing this out.

2005-05-04 jms1

- cleaned up the code a little bit. holding the output in memory until the
  whole thing is done so that partial output doesn't become an issue. it
  also makes it possible to create a cdb file directly, but i don't think
  i'm going to do that- i like the "chaining" approach better, piping this
  script's output through "cdbmake-12" to produce the cdb file.

2005-04-20 jms1

- initial release
