   pid.time@localname, where time is in seconds, and matches previous

   (pseudo)random bytes and uses microsecond-resolution time.
+- Added -clobber switch to mhstore(1) to control overwriting of
+  existing files.
+- Added -noall/-all switches to sortm(1).  sortm -noall requires
+  a messages argument.
+- $PAGER overrides the compiled-in default pager command.
+- Added etc/scan.highlighted format file, as an example of how to
+  highlight/colorize the output of scan(1).
+- inc(1) now supports a -port switch to specify the port used by the
+  POP server.
+- pick(1) now decodes MIME-encoded header fields before searching.
+- The VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables are now supported as fallbacks
+  if the user does not configure an editor entry in their profile.
+- The format engine (mh_format(5)) now properly accounts for multibyte
+  characters when accounting for column widths.
