That amount is limited by internal - buffers. -- If a component has trailing whitespace, e.g., body:component="> ", - mhl now trims that whitespace off when filtering blank text lines. -- 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 suppoooort 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. -- The -changecur and -nochangecur switches have been added to mhfixmsg(1). +- 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". +- 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". +- scan(1) -file argument can be a Maildir directory. ----------------- 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. -- msh(1) was deprecated in nmh 1.6, and was removed in this release. -- Support in alias files for the the "*" address-group (everyone) 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 ------------------- -- Support for the MHPDEBUG environment variable is deprecated and will be - removed from a future nmh release. Instead, use the -debug switch to pick. -- With the move of support binaries from ${libdir} to ${libexecdir}/nmh, the - mostly undocumented 'libdir' mhparam(1) component has been replaced by a - new 'libexecdir' component. 'libdir' will be removed in a future release. +- 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 --------- -- The format scanner no longer subtracts 1 from the width. This has the - effect of no longer counting the trailing newline in the output of - scan(1), inc(1), and the other programs that rely on the format scanner. +- 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. +- Fixed file descriptor leak in mhfixmsg when run on multiple input files. +- Fixed memory corruption in post(1) and inc(1) when using XOAUTH2, + with 4 or more entries in the oauth-authservice file.
