Example: "%(num 22)%(ordinal)" + will output "22nd". +- show and mhl now decode more addresses in header fields. +- Added warning from all programs that read the profile if the profile + contains a post entry, which is ignored, but does not contain a + postproc entry. In other words, if you get this warning and want + to suppress it, your options include: + 1) Remove your post profile entry. + 2) Make your post profile entry a comment by prepending it with the #: + comment indicator. + 3) Add a postproc entry that points to the post that you use. That can + be viewed with "mhparam postproc". + ----------------- OBSOLETE FEATURES ----------------- -- The undocumented -queue switch to post was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was - removed in this release. -- conflict(8) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. -- mhtest(8) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was 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. ------------------- DEPRECATED FEATURES ------------------- + +- 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. + --------- BUG FIXES --------- + +- Fixed bcc to work with sendmail/pipe, and better documented that dcc + doesn't work with it [Bug 55700]. +- An -attendee switch has been added to mhical(1), for use when more than one + (or zero) attendees match a user's mailbox. +- Fixed inc(1) and %(me) function escape to not obey Local-Mailbox profile + component. +- Fixed source charset in mhfixmsg textcharset verbose output.
