sendmail-socketmap.patch
Very simple patch for .spec file to enable compile option.
The inclusion of socketmap in sendmail would require perl and the reuirements of perl as additional requirements for sendmail. Perl is a really big package and socketmap support can not be in a subpackage of sendmail, because it has to be compiled in sendmail directly. Therefore it does not make sense to include socketmap with the current perl server and client. Closing as "WONTFIX" for now. The socketmap client is implemented in C. The example client and server supplied in the package require Perl, but I don't believe examples should affect the package requirements. They should be treated as documentation. The "real" implementation: http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/patches/sendmail-8.12.7-socketmap-v4.patch The examples: http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/patches/socketmapServer.pl http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/patches/socketmapClient.pl The example client is used to test actual servers and would only be used for development. Another possible application is to store maps in one's favorite DB (eg. MySQL, PostgreSQL), allowing the DB code to live in a separate process/package. Fixed in rawhide in rpm sendmail-8.13.1-2.1 or newer: Now with SOCKETMAP support. This allow sendmail/cyrus-imapd to verify local recipient's existence before accepting email. Great for antispam defension. Thank you very much. |
