2013-09-12 - Snort 2.9.5.5

[*] Improvements
* Address issue with SMTP preprocessor and the ignore_tls_data configuration
to correctly stop inspection after an SMTP session is encrypted.  
(Thanks Bram!)

* Disable all rule evaluation (as opposed to just rules with fast patterns)
for packets on a previously blocked session.

* Corrected when perfmon preprocessor writes stats to occur as soon as
both the time and packet count criteria are met.

* Enforce same restrictions on relative PCRE for HTTP buffers from
shared library rules as already existed with text rules.


Please submit bugs, questions, and feedback to bugs@snort.org.


Happy Snorting!
