Fedora 30 OpenSMTPD Update FEDORA-2020-270ef80e9e: Email Service Fix

fedora
Calendar Grey February 8, 2020
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora's new update enhances OpenSMTPD, improving email services with better security, performance, and configuration while addressing past vulnerabilities.
libasr-1.0.4, opensmtpd-6.6.2p1 update

Summary

OpenSMTPD is a FREE implementation of the server-side SMTP protocol as defined

by RFC 5321, with some additional standard extensions. It allows ordinary

machines to exchange e-mails with other systems speaking the SMTP protocol.

Started out of dissatisfaction with other implementations, OpenSMTPD nowadays

is a fairly complete SMTP implementation. OpenSMTPD is primarily developed

by Gilles Chehade, Eric Faurot and Charles Longeau; with contributions from

various OpenBSD hackers. OpenSMTPD is part of the OpenBSD Project.

The software is freely usable and re-usable by everyone under an ISC license.

This package uses standard "alternatives" mechanism, you may call

"/usr/sbin/alternatives --set mta /usr/sbin/sendmail.opensmtpd"

if you want to switch to OpenSMTPD MTA immediately after install, and

"/usr/sbin/alternatives --set mta /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail" to revert

back to Sendmail as a default mail daemon.
