amavisd-new (1:2.6.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
The postinst-script has been updated to set stricter permissions on some
directories (/var/lib/amavis and subdirs) as suggested by the upstream
maintainer. This may lead to errors when running certain virus scanners or
webfrontends for quarantine management. If you run into problems after
upgrading please look into README.Debian for hints how to solve them.

Since non-free software has no security support non-free unpackers have been
disabled. If you want to use them you have to enable them in
/etc/amavisd-new/conf.d/01-debian. The following unpackers have been
disabled:
- unfreeze
- lha
- rar

amavisd-new (1:2.3.3-6) unstable; urgency=low
A bug in the default amavisd-new configuration (in 20-debian_defaults) exists
in versions 2.3.3-2 up to 2.3.3-5, which caused quarantined messages to be
stored in /var/lib/amavis/quarantine (a mbox file) instead of the directory
/var/lib/amavis/virusmails.
This bug has been fixed in 2.3.3-6, but the "quarantine" file will be left
alone, and it is up to the local administrator to delete that file if it
doesn't have anything useful in it. Local administrators are free to change
the quarantine method and storage location if "virusmails" is not to their
liking.

amavisd-new (1:2.3.3-5) unstable; urgency=low
Amavisd-new has been modified to support the Debian conf.d style when no
config files are supplied in the command line. The code implementing the
conf.d functionality using multiple -c options in the initscript has been
removed.
Past versions of amavisd-new (in Debian) would use /etc/amavis/amavisd.conf
instead of parsing the conf.d config files.

amavisd-new (1:2.3.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
This is the new major upstream stable branch of amavisd-new.
As usual for a major upstream release change:
* There is a lot of new functionality
* There is a lot of new source code
* The configuration file changed in non-backward-compatible ways
So, you will again have to update your configuration manually. At least such
annoyances only happens on major branch changes, and it is much safer than
trying to second-guess whatever was done to old amavis configuration files, as
they are fully-fledged perl programs by themselves.
The new configuration system uses split files in /usr/share/amavis/conf.d and
/etc/amavis/conf.d, which are read in priority order. First from
/usr/share/amavis/conf.d, then /etc/amavis/conf.d.
The ones in /usr/share are Debian/upstream land. You can override anything in
them placing files in /etc/amavis/conf.d or editing the ones already in
/etc/amavis/conf.d. It is suggested that all user changes be done to 50-user,
overriding whatever Debian options you don't like.
ATTENTION CLAMAV USERS:
If you use clamav-daemon, make sure that it is configured to init
supplementary groups when it drops privileges, and that you add the clamav
user to the amavis group.
