NEW FEATURES
------------
-- All nmh programs will now warn about multiple profile entries for
- the same non-null, non-comment component. In previous versions, all
- but the first were silently ignored.
-- mhmail now supports all post(8) options, or optionally can use
- send(1) with all of its options. Its formerly undocumented -resent
- switch has been documented. And it has new -attach, -headerfield,
- and -send/-nosend switches.
-- Default to flock() locking on OpenBSD and Darwin.
-- Added -directives support to mhbuild(1) to control whether or not
- mhbuild will honor MIME directives by default. And added support
- for special #on/#off/#pop directives to control the MIME directive
- processing state.
-- Added -messageid switch to send(1) and post(8). This allows
- selection of the style to use for generated Message-ID and
- Content-ID header fields. The default localname style is
- pid.time@localname, where time is in seconds, and matches previous
- behavior. The random style replaces the localname with some
- (pseudo)random bytes and uses microsecond-resolution time.
+- builds use OpenSSL if available.
+- post now defaults to port 587 on 'smtp' message submission.
