| 10.6.2000: Virtual mailboxes and SQL-authentification | GNU POP3d | 0.9.8 |
|---|---|---|
| In a multidomain environment it is useful to allow virtual mailboxes so joey@domain.de and joey@server.de may be organized as two different mailboxes on one host. Since no local users are affected a different password database was needed anyway. By using sqllib this is done through a SQL database. Virtual mailboxses are detected by the existance of the @-sign as part of the pop3 username. The address refers to a local mailbox in /var/spool/virtual with the name of the user, @-sign exchanged to underscore. | ||

| 7.12.2000: UIDL-support | GNU POP3d | 0.9.8 |
|---|---|---|
| The regular version 0.9.8 of gnu-pop3d doesn't support UIDL, it's
simply not implemented. UIDL refers to unique-id listing and provides a unique identifier for each and every message, thus uniquely identifies a message within a maildrop and which persists across sessions. The server should never reuse an unique-id in a given maildrop, for as long as the entity using the unique-id exists. |
