Introducing the 2024 Fall Release

We're pleased to announce the Fall 2024 release, now available through our repos and Docker container.

As always it comes with a lot of fixes and improvements, including some highlights:

• Providers have been added to the Shaping Helper. This enables senders to aggregate Site Names that belong to a single provider but are not grouping together automatically. An example of this are the separate site names for google.com and googlemail.com that both resolve to the same set of servers but with two different MX record formats. See more at https://docs.kumomta.com/userguide/configuration/trafficshaping/#pattern-matching-rollups.
• Several tunings have been introduced for improved metrics outputs and server restarts with larger queues.
• Deferred generation and deferred spooling has been introduced for HTTP injections for users whose injection infrastructure was designed for immediate return from an HTTP API call. Users should use at their own risk. See https://docs.kumomta.com/reference/http/api_inject_v1/.
• Batching is now available for webhook sends. See https://docs.kumomta.com/userguide/operation/webhooks/#batched-hooks.
• SPF validation of inbound messages is now available, see https://docs.kumomta.com/reference/kumo.spf/check_host/ for more information.

This is only a sampling of the changes, see https://docs.kumomta.com/changelog/2024.11.08-d383b033/ for full details including breaking changes.
