3 + Large mails are handled in 256kB blocks, so mail size no longer
4 has hardly any effect on memory usage
5 + 64bit file offsets are used if supported by system. This means
6 Dovecot is fully capable of handling >2G mails in those systems.
7 With 32bit offsets >2G mails may not behave too well, but should
8 not crash either.
9 + I fixed lots of potential integer overflows. This should make us
10 fully crash-free no matter what happens (index file corruption
11 mostly). I didn't verify everything too carefully yet, so more
12 auditing is still needed before we fully reach that goal.
13 + Implemented several missing tasks / optimizations to index handling.
14 It should now stay fast after longer usage periods.
15 + New configuration file options: log_path, log_timestamp, imaps_listen
16 + "Critical errors" are now hidden from users, ie. any error message
17 that is not a direct reply to user error is written into log file
18 and user gets only "Internal error [timestamp]".
19 + Nonblocking SSL handshaking
20 + Lots of code cleanups
21 - Lots of mbox fixes, it seems to be somewhat reliable now
22 - Year in Date-field was parsed wrong
23 - Appending mail to mbox didn't work right
24 - Always verify that mailbox names are valid (especially they shouldn't
25 contain "../")
