This is a list of significant known issues with INetUtils 1.3:
0) WARNING WILL ROBINSON!!!
ONE AmiTCP beta tester has reported data loss and mail folder
corruption. This has *never* happened in the AS225 version, and
I can't reproduce it under AmiTCP. After 1.5 weeks of holding
up release waiting for debug information, I've decided to not
wait any longer.
You have been warned.
UPDATE: I believe this to have been fixed in 1.3.
1) Alias support is broken. The "envelope" is built correctly, but the
header is not (i.e., the mail will go to the right place, but the
From:, To: and Cc: headers will be wrong). This can be worked
around using Reply-To:, to some degree.
2) SMTPd does not know about UUCP connected hosts. A design has been
made (to use the AmigaUUCP UULib:Domains file for this routing).
Thanks to Michael P. Krauss for the detailed design.
3) SMTPd and SMTPpost do not properly parse some address variants that are
legal by RFC-822. SMTPd and SMTPpost currently implement only the more
rigid news variants.
4) SMTPd does not do Return-To-Sender logic for timeouts.
5) SMTPpost does not do Return-To-Sender logic for invalid users (based on
the result from CheckUser (if defined).
6) SMTPd has a very weak algorithm for determining which queued article to
send next. It can fail under conditions where your SMTPSmarterHost isn't
available. (No machine crash, it just won't try to resend anything but
the first three or four items in the queue.)
It is improved over 1.1, but still leaves a lot to be desired.
Thanks to Mike Meyer, an improved implementation is in the works.
7) SMTPd does not understand "Return-Receipt-To".
