|
popper-1.82beta.tar.Z 27 March 91
|
||
|
|
||
|
This version fixes problems on Encore MultiMax and some Sun releases
|
||
|
which wouldn't allow a user to ftruncate() a file from an open
|
||
|
file descripter unless the user owns the file. Now the user
|
||
|
owns the /usr/spool/mail/.userid.pop file. Thanks to Ben Levy
|
||
|
of FTP Software and Henry Holtzman of Apple.
|
||
|
|
||
|
popper-1.81beta.tar.Z 20 March 91
|
||
|
|
||
|
This version of popper is supposed to fix three problems reported
|
||
|
with various versions of popper (all called 1.7 or 1.7something).
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) Dropped network connections meant lost mail files. Some 1.7
|
||
|
versions also risked corrupting mail files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2) Some versions of 1.7 created temporary drop files with world
|
||
|
read and write permissions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3) Some versions of 1.7 were not careful about opening the temporary
|
||
|
drop file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
popper-1.7.tar.Z 09 September 90 (updated 20 March 91)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This version will exhibit the first problem listed above if it is
|
||
|
compiled with -DDEBUG and run without the "-d" (debug) flag.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If it is compiled without -DDEBUG it will exhibit only the second
|
||
|
and third bug listed above.
