What's New:
New: Various new settings and fixes (see latest online version of updates page: http://netwinsite.com/surgemail/help/updates.htm)
New: g_sms_forward - This setting allows you to specify IP's which can send to an sms="TRUE" gateway without being authenticated. Normally only smtp authenticated senders can use these because we need to be sure the sender really is the person sending, not someone faking their address (in order to decrement the correct users quota). However, if you can already guarantee the sender, or you don't care then you can use this setting. This allows your list server (dlist) to send to SMS numbers, for example.
New: surgewall_auth user="username" pass="password" - Makes SurgeMail use SMTP AUTH when delivering to the SurgeWalled server.
Fix: g_orbs_check_all "true" caused g_orbs_late "true" to fail.
Fix: was not correctly stamping when g_orbs_list was setup to deal with multiple responses. eg g_orbs_list name="combined.njabl.org" action="stamp" stamp="3=NJABL-DUL~4=NJABL-Spam~NJABL-other".
