3.2 2004-07-09

    Contributions from John Gunkel <jgunkel@palliser.ca>:
        Add .spec file for building rpms, contributed by John Gunkel

        Changes to file layout to conform to RedHat/LSB standards.

        Add some html (actually xml) tags used by Apple mac print
        subsystem that were tripping the html tag detector.

        Help with changes required to allow dnsbl to drop root
        priviledges. Move the socket to /var/run/dnsbl/dnsbl.sock

    Change parser to handle &#xnnn; obfuscated urls with charaters
    specified in hex.

    Make bad_html tags more sensitive to binary tags, to reduce false
    positives in .zip or .tar.gz file attachments.

    Add sendmail queueid to the dnsbl syslog messages.

    Fix one place where host names were not forced to lower case.
    Discovered by Nigel Horne <njh@bandsman.co.uk>

    Remove duplicate dns queries within the same smtp transaction from
    the body content filtering.  This helps if the mail server does not
    have a nearby caching dns server.

    Add host_soft_limit config keyword.  Use only one of host_limit or
    host_soft_limit, since the last one wins.  The host_limit is a hard
    upper limit on the number of host names in a message.  The
    host_soft_limit allows unlimited host names, but only checks a
    random sample of them against the dnsbl.

    The main thread has dropped root priviledges, but other threads
    are still running as root. This needs to be fixed.
