 Log Message:
 Update to 2.5.3. This update is from maintainer in PR #38062.
 
 From the amavisd-new-2.5.3 release notes:
 
 BUG FIXES
 
 - fix parsing a SMTP status response from MTA when releasing from a
   quarantine, when a MTA response did not include an enhanced status
   code (RFC 3463) (such as with old versions of Postfix);  a parsing
   failure resulted in attribute "setreply=450 4.5.0 Unexpected:..."
   in an AM.PDP protocol response, even though a release was successful;
   reported by Ron Miller, John M. Kupski, investigated by Tony Caduto
   and Jeremy Fowler;
 
 - change parsing of addresses in From, To, and Cc header fields, avoiding
   complex Perl regular expressions which could crash a process on certain
   degenerate cases of these header fields; thanks for detailed problem
   reports to Carsten Lührs and Attila Nagy;
 
 - completely rewritten parsing of Received header field to work around a
   Perl regular expression problem which could crash a process on certain
   degenerate cases of mail header fields; problem reported by Thomas Gelf;
 
 - harden to some extent regular expressions in parse_message_id to cope
   better with degenerate cases of header fields carrying message-id;
 
 - sanitize 8-bit characters in In-Reply-To and References header fields
   before using them in Pen Pals SQL lookups to avoid UTF-8 errors like:
     penpals_check FAILED: sql exec: err=7, 22021, DBD::Pg::st execute failed:
     ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xd864
 
 - when turning an infection report into a spam report, avoid adding newly
   discovered virus names (i.e. fraud names) to a cached list if these names
   are already listed; previously the list would just grow on each passage
   through a cache, leading to unsightly long lists of spam tests in a
   report; based on a patch by Henrik Krohns;
 
 - fix diagnostics when an invalid command line argument is given;
 
 OTHER
 
 - reduce log clutter when certain Perl modules are loaded late, i.e. after
   chrooting and daemonizing, but still before a fork; now only issue one
   log entry by a parent process: "extra modules loaded after daemonizing: ";
 
 - slightly relax mail address syntax in subroutine split_address;
 
 - fetch additional information (tags) from SpamAssassin: TESTS, ASN,
   ASNCIDR, DKIMDOMAIN and DKIMIDENTITY, making them available through a macro
   'supplementary_info' (if a version of SpamAssassin in use provides them);
 
 - updated DKIM section in amavisd-new-docs.html, removing the historical
   DomainKeys milter from examples;
 
 - declared a dummy subroutine dkim_key() and new dummy configuration
   variables @dkim_signature_options_bysender_maps, %signed_header_fields,
   $reputation_factor, @signer_reputation_maps and $sql_partition_tag, members
   of policy banks, in preparation for 2.6.0 - declared now for improved
   downgrade compatibility of 2.6.0 configuration files, if need arises.
