Release notes:

This release brings updated signatures, usability improvements, and bug
fixes. Highlights in this release include:

  • Match Postfix pre-authentication disconnects
  • Fix bashisms in iptables backend
  • Fix size argument in inet_ntop() call
  • Remove excessive logging when polling from files
  • Keep looking for unreadable files while polling
  • Update Dovecot signature for POP3
  • Match "Connection reset" message for SSH
  • Resurrect PID file option by popular demand
  • Adjust default abuse threshold

Most notably, some default options have changed. The abuse threshold has
been reduced to 30 (3 attacks) and the initial block time has been
lowered to 2 minutes (from 7). These settings can be overridden from the
command line. Package maintainers should check their scripts.

The PID file option (-p) has been resurrected.
