The following are new features for the 1.7 release of nmh:
+- When building from source, configure will derive ${prefix} from an existing
+ nmh installation if it finds one in your $PATH.
+- Added welcome message when nmh detects that its version changed.
+- The default locations for configuration files and support binaries
+ have been changed. Configuration files now install into ${sysconfdir}/nmh,
+ and support binaries are placed in ${libexecdir}/nmh. If you are upgrading
+ an existing installation you should look for old configuration files in
+ ${sysconfdir} and merge any local customizations into the new files in
+ ${sysconfdir}/nmh, then remove the old files. ${libdir} will also contain
+ obsolete support programs that should be removed.
+- All TLS connections now perform certificate validation (including hostname
+ matching) by default; can be disabled on a per-application basis.
- post now defaults to port 587 on 'smtp' message submission.
- A value of 0 for the width switch of scan(1), inc(1), ap(1), dp(1),
fmttest(1), and mhl(1) now means as many characters as the format
- An "rtrim" flag has been added to mhl to remove any trailing
whitespace from filtered text lines. A corresponding "nortrim" flag
has also been added.
-- The default locations for configuration files and support binaries
- have been changed. Configuration files now install into ${sysconfdir}/nmh,
- and support binaries are placed in ${libexecdir}/nmh. If you are upgrading
- an existing installation you should look for old configuration files in
- ${sysconfdir} and merge any local customizations into the new files in
- ${sysconfdir}/nmh, then remove the old files. ${libdir} will also contain
- obsolete support programs that should be removed.
-- When building from source, configure will derive ${prefix} from an existing
- nmh installation if it finds one in your $PATH.
- Added getmymbox and getmyaddr mh-format(5) function escapes.
- New -[no]changecur, -fixtype, -decodetypes, and -[no]crlflinebreaks switches
have been added to mhfixmsg(1).
- folder(1) -nocreate now prints a warning message for a non-existent folder.
- mhfixmsg(1) now allows -decodetext binary, though 8bit is still the default.
- inc(1) and msgchk(1) now support TLS encryption natively.
-- All TLS connections now perform certificate validation (including hostname
- matching) by default; can be disabled on a per-application basis.
- All network protocols support the XOAUTH authentication mechanism.
- Support for SMTPUTF8 (RFC 6531) has been added. mhshow(1) already supported
RFC 6532, assuming all 8-bit message header field bodies are UTF-8 and use
- If a message body contains 8-bit bytes, post(8) uses SMTP 8BITMIME if the
server supports it. If not, post fails with a message to the user to
encode the message for 7-bit transport.
-- Added welcome message when nmh detects that its version changed.
- Fewer lseek(2)s will be used when reading headers in the common case.
- Single-character headers can be reliably formatted, etc., instead of
apparently being missing.
actually works in the absence of a Fcc header in the replied-to message.
- A Content-ID is generated for message/external-body entities as required
by RFC 2045, even if -nocontentid is supplied to mhbuild.
-- Post will now expand aliases on a "From" line when doing a BCC (bug #51098)
+- post will now expand aliases on a "From" line when doing a BCC [Bug #51098].
+- scan can now handle empty files without violating an assert [Bug #51693].
