 NEW FEATURES

+
+- The default editor has been changed from 'vi' to 'prompter', to align with
+  historical practice and reduce packaging dependencies on external programs.
+- A new -checkbase64 switch to mhfixmsg(1).
+- inc(1)/msgchk(1) now support STARTTLS for the POP protocol.
+- All TLS-supported protocols now will send the SNI (server name indicator)
+  TLS extension.
+- A new mh-format function %(ordinal) has been implemented to output the
+  appropriate ordinal suffix for numbers.  Example: "%(num 22)%(ordinal)"
+  will output "22nd".

 OBSOLETE FEATURES
 -----------------
 

-- The undocumented -queue switch to post was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and
-  removed in this release.
+- The MIME content cache functionality has been mostly non-functional since
+  the development on nmh, and consequently all of the content caching code
+  and related switches (-cache/-rcache/-wcache) have been removed.
+- Support for generating and reassembling message/partial messags has been
+  removed; it seems that this has been broken since 1.5 and there is very
+  little support across MUAs.

+- The generation and verification of Content-MD5 headers is no longer
+  performed.  The -check and -nocheck switches to various nmh programs
+  that would control this functionality still exist, but are non-functional
+  and will be removed in the next release.

+- Fixed bcc to work with sendmail/pipe, and better documented that dcc

+  (or zero) attendees match a user's mailbox.
+- Fixed inc(1) and %(me) function escape to not obey Local-Mailbox profile
+  component.
