3 The default delivery mode has been changed to immediate, as it is in
4 the upstream version of dma; the DEFER keyword is now disabled by default
5 in dma.conf.

11 The dma spool directory format has changed. The Debian package of dma now
12 recommends a separate package containing the dma-migrate utility; if it is
13 present, it will be invoked at each periodic dma queue flush and attempt to
14 convert the existing old-style queued messages to the new format. In most
15 cases, this should not incur any performance penalties in normal operation,
16 since dma-migrate will scan the spool directory and ignore any new messages
17 (they should already be in the new format); however, if it appears that
18 the periodic queue flush runs take longer than usual to start up, you may
19 remove the dma-migrate package once you have ascertained that your queue
20 directory (/var/spool/dma) only contains files with names beginning with
21 the letters M or Q.

23 This version of dma knows how to perform MX lookups, so remote delivery is
24 now possible directly, not through a smarthost. However, a smarthost setup
25 might still be preferred on many systems for various reasons - e.g. dynamic
26 address assignment, a central outgoing mailserver, a roaming laptop, etc.
