- SMTP falls back to RFC821 HELO when EHLO fails (and SSL is not required).
- Use of true local host name (i.e.: via gethostname()) when available, as default argument to SMTP HELO/EHLO.
- Test case 804 for HELO fallback.
properly in angle brackets. Recipients provided with CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT now
get angle bracket wrapping automatically by libcurl unless the recipient
starts with an angle bracket as then the app is assumed to deal with that
properly on its own.
in the same RCPT TO line, when they should be sent in separate single
commands. I updated test case 802 to verify this.
- I also fixed a bad use of my_setopt_str() of CURLOPT_MAIL_RCPT in the curl
tool which made it try to output it as string for the --libcurl feature
which could lead to crashes.
HTTP Cookie: header _needs_ to be sorted on the path length in the cases
where two cookies using the same name are set more than once using
(overlapping) paths. Realizing this, identically named cookies must be
sorted correctly. But detecting only identically named cookies and take care
of them individually is harder than just to blindly and unconditionally sort
all cookies based on their path lengths. All major browsers also already do
this, so this makes our behavior one step closer to them in the cookie area.
Test case 8 was the only one that broke due to this change and I updated it
accordingly.
again when downloading files over FTP using ASCII and it turns out that the
final size of the file is not the same as the initial size the server
reported. This is very common since servers don't take the newline
conversions into account.
present in the tests/data/Makefile.am and outputs a notice message on the
screen if not. Each test file has to be included in that Makefile.am to get
included in release archives and forgetting to add files there is a common
mistake. This is an attempt to make it harder to forget.
command is a special "hack" used by the drftpd server, but even though it is
a custom extension I've deemed it fine to add to libcurl since this server
seems to survive and people keep using it and want libcurl to support
it. The new libcurl option is named CURLOPT_FTP_USE_PRET, and it is also
usable from the curl tool with --ftp-pret. Using this option on a server
that doesn't support this command will make libcurl fail.
sequences in uploaded data. The test server doesn't "decode" escaped dot-lines
but instead test cases must be written to take them into account. Added test
case 803 to verify dot-escaping.
detects and uses proxies based on the environment variables. If the proxy
was given as an explicit option it worked, but due to the setup order
mistake proxies would not be used fine for a few protocols when picked up
from '[protocol]_proxy'. Obviously this broke after 7.19.4. I now also added
test case 1106 that verifies this functionality.

on FTP errors in the transient 5xx range. Transient FTP errors are in the
4xx range. The code itself only tried on 5xx errors that occured _at login_.
Now the retry code retries on all FTP transfer failures that ended with a
4xx response.

POST using a read callback, with Digest authentication and
"Transfer-Encoding: chunked" enforced. I would then cause the first request
to be wrongly sent and then basically hang until the server closed the
connection. I fixed the problem and added test case 565 to verify it.
unparsable expiry dates and then treat them as session cookies - previously
libcurl would reject cookies with a date format it couldn't parse. Research
shows that the major browser treat such cookies as session cookies. I
modified test 8 and 31 to verify this.
