+This file lists all the major user-visible changes to nullmailer.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 1.00RC5
+
+- Fixed getdomainname prototype in lib/hostname.cc.
+- Return proper error codes for permanent and temporary SMTP failures.
+- Adapted to use supervise-scripts 3.
+
+Note: If no further bugs are found, this will become the official
+version 1.00 release.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 1.00RC4
+
+- Fixed the reversed logic in the named pipe bug check.
+- Updated the HOWTO notes.
+- Fixed a compile problem on Solaris (and possibly other systems).
+- Fixed address parsing to strip a trailing period in the domain name.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 1.00RC3
+
+- Treat the first non-header line in a message as the first line of the
+ body, even if it isn't preceded by a blank line.
+- Fixed another host name bug causing compilation failures on systems
+ without "domainname" in struct utsname.
+- Fixed some typos that would prevent proper TCP connections on many
+ systems.
+- Handle systems that require both a reader and a writer on a named pipe
+ to do a proper select.
+- Added a man page for the sendmail emulator, and an overall man page.
+- Fixed a bug in the fdbuf library that was causing data loss or damage.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 1.00RC2
+
+- Fixed a bug in the way host names are determined. This should fix
+ problems with nullmailer-queue reporting an invalid envelope.
+
+- Fixed a portability bug in the mergelib.sh script.
+
+- Fixed a potential bug in the SMTP protocol response handling.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 1.00RC1
+
+- Imported latest fdbuf, mystring, and cli libraries.
+
+- Fixed a bug in the timezone handling on systems with tm_gmtoff.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.40
+
+- Fixed some compile problems to allow nullmailer to compile on FreeBSD.
+
+- Fixed a bug in the sendmail emulator to allow it to set the sender
+ name and address from the command line properly.
+
+- Modified the CLI library to behave more like the standard getopt
+ library.
+
+- Made a change to protocol between nullmailer-send and protocol
+ modules. nullmailer-send now opens up the message files and passes
+ them to the protocol module as FD 0 instead of passing a filename.
+
+- Added some notes to the nullmailer-send manual page explaining how
+ messages are delivered.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.39
+
+- Fixed problems in nullmailer-send in parsing the "remotes" file. It
+ previously did not handle comment lines or tabs or multiple white
+ space.
+
+- Made nullmailer-inject stricter about header lines to ensure that they
+ comply with RFC822.
+
+- Several minor updates to the libraries to bring them up to date.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.38
+
+- Fixed bug in nullmailer-send that caused it to refuse to send mail
+ when the optional "pausetime" configuration file did not exist.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.37
+
+- Fixed bug in address parser that caused strings like "<a@b.c>"
+ (without a leading comment) to fail.
+
+- Make nullmailer-send rescan the mail queue each time it wakes up,
+ rather than only if the timestamp changes to avoids race conditions.
+
+- Make nullmailer-send reload its config files ("remotes" and
+ "pausetime" each time it scans the queue).
+
+- Fixed top-level install-root target to run chmod/chown on the right
+ path to nullmailer-queue.
+
+- Added a configure test for libinet, libsocket, and libxnet libraries
+ for systems that have their networking code seperate from the main C
+ library (such as Solaris).
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.36
+
+- Imported generic CLI library, to avoid the use of getopt on systems
+ that don't have one.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.35
+
+- Protocols now take a "-p #" to specify the port number to connect to.
+
+- This option can be specified in the "remotes" file immediately after
+ the protocol name.
+
+- nullmailer-send will now only rescan the mail queue if its timestamp
+ has changed since the last scan.
+
+- Fixed an observed problem with empty domain names by using uname(2)
+ instead of domainname and hostname.
+
+- The header address parsing code is rewritten to do a lexical
+ tokenization before parsing.
+
+- Imported new fdbuf and mystring libraries
+
+- Updated init scripts and RPM spec to work with new daemontools 0.61
+ and supervise-scripts packages.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.33
+- fixed a bug in the "list" template class that caused nullmailer-send
+ to only send out one message before sleeping
+- added a trivial address remapping facility to nullmailer-queue to
+ allow local addresses to be redirected to a remote administrator
+ address.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.32
+- the address parser now deals properly with quoted addresses
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.31
+- added a HOWTO document
+- "make install-root" will now properly make nullmailer-queue setuid
+ nullmail
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.30
+- fixed bug in the I/O library that caused nullmailer-inject to return
+ an error on messages with a single blank line following the header,
+ even though the message was successfully sent to nullmailer-queue
+- in nullmailer-inject, the hostname of the sender is set from the
+ defaulthost config file instead of hostname() (note that default is
+ set from hostname() if the file does not exist)
+- fixed a bug in nullmailer-inject that would cause it to incorrectly
+ clear its recipient list when using command-line recipients with a
+ "resent" message
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.29
+- included the testing framework (mostly empty) into the package
+- fixed some bugs in nullmailer-inject caused by incorrect offsets into
+ the array of header fields
+- many bug fixes to the address parsing framework
+- nullmailer-inject now has an option to only print out the message
+ instead of passing it on to nullmailer-queue
+- many sendmail flags are now ignored instead of causing errors in the
+ sendmail front end to nullmailer-inject
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.28
+- fixed the bugs in the spec and init script
+- nullmailer-inject now handles the "c" flag like qmail-inject
+- changed some error messages
+- the sendmail front end should have its header vs command-line
+ recipients logic fixed now
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.27
+- added a QMQP protocol module
+- fixed a missing NUL-termination when creating the Date header line
+- nullmailer-inject now parses the NULLMAILER_FLAGS -- see the man page
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.26
+- nullmailer-queue and nullmailer-send now go into sbin instead of bin
+- bugfixes to the unique number generation routines
+- moved some files around internally
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.25
+- nullmailer-send now reads a protocol name along with the remote host
+- nullmailer-inject now handles its command-line options properly, as
+ well as reading and using defaulthost, defaultdomain, and idhost
+- fixed several bugs in the address parsing and date-generation code
+- revised the interface between nullmailer-send and the protocol modules
+ to simplify the interface and nullmailer-send
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Changes in version 0.22
+- added simple sendmail front end
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
