heterogeneous environment. MySQL Connector/J is a Type IV JDBC driver and has a
complete JDBC feature set that supports the capabilities of MySQL.

 Download files from the usenet

Update Information:

Update to version 0.6.1. This is a bugfix release containing the following
fixes: * Added a hack which should prevent a crash on startup which several Mac
OS X users were having * An error message could get shown when trying to remove
both an collection and a file within that specific collection at the same time.
Fixed * Files which are downloaded, but not yet decoded could remain stuck in
the 'Waiting for decoding' state. Fixed * When adding files using the NNTPGrab
Server which are smaller than 1024 bytes, an error message could get shown in
the frontend. Fixed * The download queue could get suspended when having
multiple servers and all the items in the download queue aren't available on one
of those servers. Fixed * When an connection error occurs while downloading, the
download queue could end up in an undefined state. Fixed * When a collection
doesn't contain any PAR2 files, no automatic unpack would happen. Fixed * Also
try to unpack .001 files when these are RAR archives * Fixed a possible crash or
strange behaviour when trying to remove files from the download queue while
other files are being downloaded * When a read timeout occurs on all active
connections at the same time, the download queue could get suspended even when
there still are tasks remaining. Fixed * Disabled the automatic import options
in the GUI for Mac OS X as this feature isn't implemented yet for Mac OS X
environments * Fixed various small memory leaks

 spamass-milter-0.3.1-18.el5 (FEDORA-EPEL-2010-2461)
 Milter (mail filter) for spamassassin
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update includes a fix for a problem where if the milter is running using
the "-x" option to expand aliases before passing inbound mail through
SpamAssassin, a malicious client using a carefully-crafted SMTP session could
execute arbitrary code on the mail server. The fix avoids the use of a shell in
the alias expansion and hence there is no longer a problem with having to
sanitize input from the client.    No CVE number has yet been assigned to this
problem, which is tracked upstream at https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?29136
The update also contains improved Received-header-generation for message
submission and a fix for a problem where the milter would erroneously log
warnings about the mail server's configuration when the first message from a
non-authenticated client passed through. As part of the fix for this issue, the
required milter macro configuration for the mail server has changed slightly:
see the README file included in the package for details.
