3.68. postfix
Updated postfix packages that fix two bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Postfix is a Mail Transport Agent (MTA), supporting LDAP, SMTP AUTH (SASL), and TLS.
Bug Fixes
- BZ#915901
- Previously, the postfix packages had redundant explicitly specified dependencies. This could block from installing third party packages which fulfilled the implicit dependencies. To fix this bug, the redundant explicit dependencies have been removed. As a result, any third party packages can now be used.
- BZ#977629
- Previously, the Transport Layer Security (TLS) session cache was created in the /var/spool/postfix/ directory with the root user as owner. This could cause various problems if the cache was accessed by an unprivileged process of the tlsmgr daemon, including a tlsmgr failure. With this update, the TLS session cache I/O operations are redirected and the cache is now created in /var/lib/postfix/ with the correct Postfix owner.
Users of postfix are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs. After installing this update, the postfix service will be restarted automatically.
