Lots of smaller fixes and two small features this time around.
Group-in-Group support for network groups enabled
Group-in-Group support for network groups is now officially supported
and you can now add network groups into other network groups via
WebAdmin.
In the past this was disabled due to performance concerns. A seemingly
innocent looking packetfilter rule which used network groups as source
and destination could cause huge numbers of iptables rules to be generated
in the backend (at least number of members in group 1 x number of members
in group 2). It was much easier to fall into this trap if you didn't see
directly how much members the network groups actually had.
With the usage of ipset in V8.2 the number of iptables rules such
packetfilter objects create doesn't depend on the number of members
anymore since each group is represented by one ipset.
Require TLS for certain hosts/domains in SMTP proxy
At Mail Security >> SMTP >> Advanced >> TLS settings you can now
configure lists of hosts, networks, and/or sender domains that should always
use TLS to communicate with the SMTP proxy. If they attempt an unencrypted
connection with the proxy, the proxy will abort the connection.
