 NEW FEATURES
 ------------
 
-- builds use OpenSSL if available.
-- post now defaults to port 587 on 'smtp' message submission.
-- A value of 0 for the width switch of scan(1), inc(1), ap(1), dp(1),
-  fmttest(1), and mhl(1) now means as many characters as the format
-  engine can produce [Bug #15274].  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).
-- mhfixmsg now removes an extraneous trailing semicolon from header
-  parameter lists.
-- Added -convertargs switch to repl(1), to pass arguments to programs
-  specified in the user's profile or mhn.defaults to convert message
-  content.
+- 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.
 
 -----------------
 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.
 
 -------------------
 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.
+- An -attendee switch has been added to mhical(1), for use when more than one
+  (or zero) attendees match a user's mailbox.
