Postfix official release 2.0 brings you a long list of things that
is detailed in the RELEASE_NOTES file - too long to include in the
announcement.
Thanks to all the folks who helped building and/or testing, or who
sent corrections for documentation.
Hightlights: MIME support (including 8bit->7bit conversion and more
accurate matching of MIME headers in message bodies), completely
rewritten RBL client code, smarter handling of DNS lookup errors
in UCE restrictions, virtual delivery agent without transport map
for every domain, and a long list of other things that are meant
to improve performance or functionality without compromising what
already existed.

The official release will be changed only in order to fix problems.
New features are developed and tested in snapshot releases before
they become part of the official release.
Simultaneously is a 20021222 snapshot release that includes the
experimental sender address verification, "sendmail -bv" (show what
would happen if mail were delivered) and "sendmail v" (show what
happened when mail was actually delivered). This and more will
evolve into the next official Postfix release.
