-OBSOLETE/DEPRECATED FEATURES
-----------------------------
-
+-----------------
+OBSOLETE FEATURES
+-----------------
- Changed exit status of each nmh command's -version and -help
switches from 1 to 0.
- The following environment variables were deprecated in nmh 1.5
was deprecated in nmh 1.5. If there are no requests to maintain
-atfile, it will be removed in the future.
- The undocumented -queue switch to mhmail has been removed.
-- The undocumented -queue switch to post is deprecated/obsolete
- and will be removed in the next release. It supports the
- SMTP XQUE verb, which is obsolete according to
- http://smtpfilter.sourceforge.net/esmtp.html
-- conflict(8) is deprecated and will be removed from the next release.
-- mhtest(8) is deprecated and will be removed from the next release.
- spost(8) has been merged into post(8). Its functionality is enabled
by selecting the sendmail/pipe mail transport method, described in
the mh-tailor(5) man page. The spost -noalias, -backup/-nobackup,
refuses to do that. For backward compatibility, spost has been
replaced by a simple shell script that exec's post -mts
sendmail/pipe.
+- Support for the undocumented and deprecated --enable-nmh-debug configure
+ flag has been removed.
+- Support for encoding some characters designated as EBCDIC-unsafe
+ via the -ebcdicsafe and -noebcdicsafe switches to mhbuild has
+ been removed.
+- The configure flag --with-pager has been removed; the default pager
+ is now hardcoded as "more". Users are still free to override the
+ default using the PAGER environment variable or entries in .mh_profile.
+- The configure flag --with-editor has been removed; the fallback editor
+ if none is configured is "vi".

BUG FIXES
- The first alias contained in a blind list is now expanded. The
mh-alias(5) man page was updated to show that blind lists must not
be terminated with, or contain, a trailing semicolon [Bug #15604].
+- Fixed sendfiles(1) to always provide a From: address. Also, updated
+ its switches.
+- Fixed pick(1) to properly unfold multiple-line header fields by
+ removing newlines instead of replacing them with spaces [Bug #15215].
+- Removed the artificial limit of 1000 messages at a time for rmmproc.
+- Fixed decoding of header fields when they contain a character that
+ can't be converted.
+- post(8) -sasl now honours username in .netrc [Bug #23168]. whom(1),
+ send(1), inc(1), and msgchk(1) also benefit from this fix. And, nmh
+ now supports specification of any valid filename in place of
+ $HOME/.netrc.
+- Added quoting of local part of invalid address in message being
+ replied to [Bug #26780].
