+ <ul>
+<li>(DA) (update) Fixed POP3 message size bug that prevented retrieval</li>
+<li>(SK) (code) FileRepository should no longer produce 0-byte files. It checks
that the source is different than the target, or confirm it is in memory before saving
to disk.</li>
+<li>(SK) (update) Removed check that connection is not closed before returning it.
The pooler is already confirming the connection was open before putting it in the
pool, so this was a big unnecessary performance drain.</li>
+<li>(SK) (update) Fixed the delay in the JDBC mail spool repository as it wasn't
rechecking correctly after it emptied the spool.</li>
+<li>(SS2) (code) Added dot-stuffing in POP3 message delivery to fix problems with
Netscape and other mail clients and to comply with RFC.</li>
+<li>(JK) (code) Fixed bounce method to use the Return-Path header if there is
one.</li>
+<li>(SK) (update) Improved handling of delivery error messages when the remote
server returns a specific 5XY complaint.</li>
+<li>(SK) (code) Better diagnosing of temporary vs. permanent delivery exceptions,
most notably "Could not connect to host.." is a temporary exception.</li>
+<li>(SK) (code) Remote SMTP delivery now sets the remote hostname using the
servername configuration setting (uses the first one).</li>
+<li>(SK) (update) Have it cleanly (not print stack trace) if the remote manager
handler has io/socket exceptions.</li>
+<li>(SK) (update) Support in "IsSenderInFakeDomain" to handle null senders properly
(was producing a false positive in this case).</li>
+<li>(PH) (update) Added releaseConnection method to BaseConnectionHandler as per
Paul H's bug report.</li>

Chanot's bug report.</li>
