* Changes in MH-E 7.90
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.90 is the first 8.0 beta release and is a release that has
|
|
|
|
|
finally broken away from some unfortunate legacy decisions in favor of
|
|
|
|
|
something that will be easier to use and support. Many bugs were fixed
|
|
|
|
|
and many features were added, including making the pick search
|
|
|
|
|
equivalent to the other types of searches.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The rewrite of the manual accelerated dramatically in recent months
|
|
|
|
|
and drove the changes in this release. In order to make the
|
|
|
|
|
manual--and hence the software--better, clearer, more consistent, more
|
|
|
|
|
predictable, and easier to understand, many variables and functions
|
|
|
|
|
were renamed. The changes to the user-visible variables are listed
|
|
|
|
|
here. It is our hope that you, dear MH-E user, will embrace the
|
|
|
|
|
changes for the better and forgive us from making so many incompatible
|
|
|
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use undocumented functionality, be sure to read the ChangeLog
|
|
|
|
|
for changes that might affect you.

** New Features in MH-E 7.90
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Entry Points Have Moved
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs 21 users must now add `(require 'mh-autoloads)' because the
|
|
|
|
|
entry points (such as `mh-rmail' and `mh-smail') have moved to
|
|
|
|
|
different files which have made the autoloads that come with Emacs
|
|
|
|
|
inaccurate. This change was necessary because the code was reorganized
|
|
|
|
|
to remove circular dependencies, to make the code more stable and
|
|
|
|
|
maintainable, and to reduce the time to load MH-E.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** MH-E No Longer Calls install-mh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new variant detection code makes use of `mhparam' which assumes
|
|
|
|
|
that your MH environment has already been set up. The code to call
|
|
|
|
|
`install-mh', which could no longer be run anyway, was removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use run-hook-with-args
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We use normal hooks whenever possible and do not use
|
|
|
|
|
`run-hook-with-args' (with one documented exception) (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#643702).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Merge mh-index.el and mh-pick.el
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We merged `mh-index.el' and `mh-pick.el' into a new file
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-search.el'. As part of this process, the old `F s' behavior of
|
|
|
|
|
adding messages to the search sequence has been removed. The `F i'
|
|
|
|
|
keybinding was then renamed to `F s' (`mh-search'). The mode of the
|
|
|
|
|
search-pattern buffer was renamed from MH-Pick to MH-Search. Within
|
|
|
|
|
the MH-Search buffer, the command `C-c C-p' (`mh-pick-do-search') now
|
|
|
|
|
runs pick on the given folder recursively and displays the results in
|
|
|
|
|
a search folder like the other search methods (closes SF #829207).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Improve Security of mh-fetch-x-image-url
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default has been changed to "Never Fetch." Those of you who like
|
|
|
|
|
the value of "Ask Before Fetching" will have to customize this option
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #831278).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Remove Emacs 20 Support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As it turns out, we had already added some code that didn't work on
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs 20. However, now we've formalized it and removed code that was
|
|
|
|
|
present solely for Emacs 20 support (closes SF #1359240).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Derive mh-letter-mode from mail-mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-Letter mode is now derived from `mail-mode'. We were able to delete
|
|
|
|
|
a lot of code. In return, there are a few `mail-mode' commands that
|
|
|
|
|
are available that may or may not be useful and the `mail-mode-hook'
|
|
|
|
|
is run (closes SF #1385571).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Add Choices to mh-to-field-choices
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In MH-Letter mode, you can use the "C-c C-f (mh-to-field)" prefix to
|
|
|
|
|
go to and insert fields. The fields "Reply-To:", "Mail-Reply-To:",
|
|
|
|
|
"Mail-Followup-To:" can now be created via the "C-r", "C-a" (for
|
|
|
|
|
author), and "C-l" keys respectively. The key for the "From:" field
|
|
|
|
|
has been renamed from "C-r" to "C-m" for consistency with `mail-mode'
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #1400139).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** MH-Folder Keymap Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The function `mh-ps-print-toggle-mime' was never implemented and the
|
|
|
|
|
functionality in `mh-ps-print-msg-show' was better afforded by
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-ps-print-msg' and `mh-ps-print-msg-file'.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
*** MH-Letter Keymap Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The change where `mh-letter-mode' derives from `mail-mode' adds a few
|
|
|
|
|
keybindings. Some are interesting; experiment! Most of the changes
|
|
|
|
|
have to do with the renaming of the functions with "mhn" in them to
|
|
|
|
|
"mh" because nmh doesn't use `mhn'. The names were also made
|
|
|
|
|
consistent with the the family of "mml" functions.

|
|

|
*** MH-Search Keymap Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are the changes associated with the new search mode. The command
|
|
|
|
|
`C-c C-c' (`mh-index-do-search') now performs the standard indexed
|
|
|
|
|
search, while `C-c C-p' (`mh-pick-do-search') runs pick as before,
|
|
|
|
|
only better!
|
|
|
|

** New Variables in MH-E 7.90
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-after-commands-processed-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hook run by `x' (`mh-execute-commands') after performing outstanding
|
|
|
|
|
refile and delete requests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-before-commands-processed-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-folder-updated-hook'. It wasn't clear whether
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-folder-updated-hook' was run before or after the commands were
|
|
|
|
|
executed. We now provide both with clear names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-highlight-citation-style
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-highlight-citation-p' since it wasn't a boolean. The
|
|
|
|
|
new name is also more descriptive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-insert-signature-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-letter-insert-signature-hook' since most of the other
|
|
|
|
|
hooks do not carry the mode in the prefix and because the new name is
|
|
|
|
|
equally clear.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-kill-folder-suppress-prompt-hooks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-kill-folder-suppress-prompt-hook'. By convention,
|
|
|
|
|
abnormal hooks, which this is, either have a -function or -hooks
|
|
|
|
|
suffix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-mhl-format-file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mhl-formfile' to put it in the MH-E namespace and to be
|
|
|
|
|
consistent with other similar options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-mh-to-mime-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-edit-mhn-hook'. We have a family of `mh-mml-to-mime'
|
|
|
|
|
functions and variables; the older mhn functions and variables were
|
|
|
|
|
renamed to have a consistent `mh-mh-to-mime' prefix.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-new-messages-folders
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-index-new-messages-folders' for clarity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-path
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional list of directories to search for MH.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-redist-full-contents-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On means the `dist' command needs entire letter for redistribution.
|
|
|
|
|
This was previously a variable. It's now an option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-search-mode-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-pick-mode-hook' as part of the
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-index.el'/`mh-pick.el' merge into `mh-search.el'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-search-program
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-index-program' as part of the
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-index.el'/`mh-pick.el' merge into `mh-search.el'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-sortm-args
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additional arguments for `sortm'. This was previously an internal
|
|
|
|
|
variable. It's now an user-customizable option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-speed-update-interval
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-speed-flists-interval' for clarity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-ticked-messages-folders
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-index-ticked-messages-folders' for clarity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-xemacs-tool-bar-position
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-xemacs-toolbar-position' per GNU Emacs naming conventions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-xemacs-use-tool-bar-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-xemacs-use-toolbar-flag' per GNU Emacs naming conventions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-yank-behavior
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed from `mh-yank-from-start-of-msg' for clarity.
|
|

|
|
|
|
header field was created that broke threading at the recipient's end.
|
|
|
|
|
We now add a `Message-ID:' to outgoing messages which fixes this
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #725425).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Speedbar Creating New Folders Instead of Visiting Existing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This was actually fixed in 7.4.3 (closes SF #792300).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Args Out of Range
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This compilation error was actually fixed in 7.4.3 (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#806577).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Initialization Fails If ~/Mail Exists
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E no longer calls `install-mh' so this issue has gone away (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #835192).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** RETURN Causes Infinite Loop in mh-letter
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #887346).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Missing Headers When Replying to All
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
User needed to edit `replgroupcomps' (closes SF #918194).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-find-path Doesn't Use mhparam
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E no longer peeks into the MH profile `~/.mh_profile' directly. It
|
|
|
|
|
uses `mhparam' instead (closes SF #1016027).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-index-previous-folder Does Not Work Correctly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If your cursor was on an item below a folder heading and you used
|
|
|
|
|
`M-TAB' (`mh-index-previous-folder'), you would move to the previous
|
|
|
|
|
folder heading. This has been fixed (closes SF #1126188).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** XEmacs Compile Fails
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Compiling produced a "Symbol's value as variable is void: require"
|
|
|
|
|
error on all files. This has been fixed. As a bonus, warnings have
|
|
|
|
|
been reduced from hundreds to just a few (closes SF #1127595).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** buffer-offer-save Permanent Local
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There was a movement to make `buffer-offer-save' a permanent local
|
|
|
|
|
which would have meant that we could not set it in `mh-letter-mode'.
|
|
|
|
|
However, this movement was fraught with issues and was postponed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #1184756).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Better Handling of Empty cur Sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you refiled a message into a folder and then used `F r'
|
|
|
|
|
(`mh-rescan-folder') in that folder, your cursor would be taken to the
|
|
|
|
|
first message. The cursor now stays where it was (closes SF #1207247).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Name of the Draft File in mh-comp.el
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH is documented to use the draft file. If you use a draft file for
|
|
|
|
|
something else (like Sylpheed), then use draft folders (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#1231483).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use Standard Default Notation in Prompts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs changed their defaults in prompts from "Prompt: [value]" to
|
|
|
|
|
"Prompt (default value): ". All MH-E prompts have been updated to
|
|
|
|
|
comply with the new standard (closes SF #1275933).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Msg Display Broken After Displaying Msg with Inline Image
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages with inline images no longer trim certain message header
|
|
|
|
|
fields (closes SF #1306141).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-visit-folder Munges font-lock-keywords
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E broke highlighting in Gnus buffers. This was actually a problem
|
|
|
|
|
in CVS Emacs 22 and has been fixed there (closes SF #1393879).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Illegal Filename Chars for W32 Filesystems
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Windows users who view `X-Image-URL:' images could not cache the
|
|
|
|
|
images since the cached image file names had illegal characters. This
|
|
|
|
|
has been fixed (closes SF #1396499).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-send Doesn't Handle mml Insertions Via mail-user-agent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can now forward messages in Gnus if MH-E is your `mail-user-agent'
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #1399307).

* Changes in MH-E 7.85
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.85 heralds a migration of the CVS repository from
|
|
|
|
|
SourceForge to Savannah only for those files that were already part of
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs. As a result, two incompatibilities were introduced with this
|
|
|
|
|
release: the location of MH-E in the load-path has changed, and
|
|
|
|
|
mh-e-autoloads.el was renamed to mh-autoloads.el. While this migration
|
|
|
|
|
will benefit maintainers, it will also benefit users: CVS Emacs users
|
|
|
|
|
will not have to check out MH-E separately and welcome faster MH-E
|
|
|
|
|
updates, and CVS MH-E users will welcome faster MH-E updates from
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs developers. Read section CVS MH-E INSTALL in the README for
|
|
|
|
|
details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now works on a Mac. See section INSTALL in the README for details.

|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.85
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Prompts Now Follow Current Conventions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Instead of "Prompt: [<default>] ", the prompts now look like "Prompt
|
|
|
|
|
(default: <default>): ".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Face Variable Names Now Follow Current Conventions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The -face suffix has been dropped from all face names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-11-05 01:27:38 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Default Identity Prevents Insertion of Auto Fields
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Auto insertion of an identity now occurs even when the default
|
|
|
|
|
identity is used (closes SF #1204506).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-10-14 23:53:41 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** mh-compose-forward and Default Message Number
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mh-compose-forward will now default to the sent message in the sent
|
|
|
|
|
folder and the `cur' message in other folders. It also takes ranges of
|
|
|
|
|
messages and can include multiple messages at a time (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#1205890).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-customize Uses Group mh, Not mh-e
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `mh' customization group alias has been deleted to avoid some
|
|
|
|
|
problems that were found (closes SF #1213716).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** font-lock Error in mh-letter-mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An error in MH-E was introduced as a result of a change in CVS Emacs.
|
|
|
|
|
This has been fixed (closes SF #1241017).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

2005-05-28 22:04:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.84
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.84 contains no user-visible changes. This version
|
|
|
|
|
incorporates changes made in CVS Emacs such as the removal of some
|
|
|
|
|
deprecated software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.83
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.83 fixes a handful of bugs, adds colors to buttons for
|
|
|
|
|
signed or encrypted messages, and contains some documentation changes
|
|
|
|
|
related to the upcoming release of the manual. Some options were moved
|
|
|
|
|
to other customization groups as a result.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While not related to this release, the MH-E mailing lists are now
|
|
|
|
|
gatewayed at gmane.org (closes SF #979308).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Variables in MH-E 7.83
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-pgg-bad-face
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Face used to highlight a bad PGG signature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-pgg-good-face
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Face used to highlight a good PGG signature.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-pgg-unknown-face
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Face used to highlight a PGG signature whose status is unknown. This
|
|
|
|
|
face is also used for a signature when the signer is untrusted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.83
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Whitespace in pick Expressions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "C-u / s RET" command now works. In addition, you can now add
|
|
|
|
|
whitespace to any of the limiting (/) commands (closes SF #1122655).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** auto-mode-alist Updated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E originally updated auto-mode-alist to set the major mode of
|
|
|
|
|
drafts. Now that we explicitly set the mode, there is no reason to do
|
|
|
|
|
this, and this behavior caused problems for people who didn't use MH-E
|
|
|
|
|
who were editing files that looked like MH message files (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#1032353).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-unquote-From Fails (read-only buffer)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E quotes the "From " header field that is inserted by MTAs.
|
|
|
|
|
However, it was trying to do this in a read-only buffer. This has been
|
|
|
|
|
fixed (closes SF #1089870).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** rmmproc Refile Complains No Such Message
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E would get confused about which folder to delete messages from if
|
|
|
|
|
you were refiling and deleting messages at the same time. This has
|
|
|
|
|
been fixed (closes SF #1023959).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** ! Doesn't Do Regions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now it does (closes SF #1046330).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Swish Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Items in swish indexes that aren't mail messages are now handled more
|
|
|
|
|
gracefully.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Spamassassin Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you use spamassassin, there was an error when you tried to junk
|
|
|
|
|
mail if the option mh-junk-background was set. This has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Mairix Support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Indexing now compatible with Mairix version 0.12 and later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-08-25 05:55:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.82
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-08-25 06:09:12 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Version 7.82 continues to address the saga surrounding the use of CL
|
2005-05-28 22:04:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
macros in CVS Emacs and fixes the auto-detection of vanilla MH (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #1014781).
|
2004-08-25 05:55:39 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2004-08-22 05:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.81
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.81 fixes a `wrong-type-argument' argument error that
|
|
|
|
|
sometimes occurred when processing the Message-ID, adds the ";
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-toggle-mh-decode-mime-flag)" command, and uses ":default" instead
|
|
|
|
|
of "default" in `mh-identity-handlers' to avoid problems with
|
|
|
|
|
"Default:" as a user defined field. If you have modified
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-identity-handlers' in your .emacs, you'll need to rename "default"
|
|
|
|
|
to ":default". This release also corrects the release numbering; the
|
|
|
|
|
previous version number was intended to be 7.80.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.4.80
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.4.80 now supports GNU mailutils, S/MIME, picons,
|
|
|
|
|
which-func-mode, has an improved interface for hiding header fields,
|
|
|
|
|
improves upon the MH variant detection, and contains many bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
|
Those of you familiar with the GNU version numbering schemes will
|
|
|
|
|
recognize this as an alpha release. This does not reflect on the
|
|
|
|
|
quality of this release which is as high as it has always been.
|
|
|
|
|
Although we are not ready to release 8.0, we want you to have access
|
|
|
|
|
to the work that has been hiding in CVS. At the same time we want to
|
|
|
|
|
make it clear that there are incompatible changes with previous
|
|
|
|
|
versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We are planning to release the long-awaited manual update synchronized
|
|
|
|
|
with version 8.0. We are using documentation from the manual in the
|
|
|
|
|
docstrings which is hoped to make "C-h f (describe-function)" really
|
|
|
|
|
useful and create a seamless experience when switching back and forth
|
|
|
|
|
between the manual and the docstrings. This has been done in about
|
|
|
|
|
half of the variables and functions in this version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The writing of the manual has revealed a few inconsistencies in the
|
|
|
|
|
software whose fixes have resulted in incompatible changes, and there
|
|
|
|
|
may well be more. So, unlike version 7 which was chock full of new
|
|
|
|
|
features, version 8's strengths will include complete documentation
|
|
|
|
|
and higher quality.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
** New Features in MH-E 7.4.80
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** GNU mailutils Support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now supports GNU mailutils 0.4 and higher versions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** S/MIME Support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now supports S/MIME using Gnus 5.10.6 or higher.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Picon Support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to the other methods of displaying an icon for the sender
|
|
|
|
|
of a message, MH-E can now display images from a picon directory. The
|
|
|
|
|
directory search path is found in the `mh-picon-directory-list'
|
|
|
|
|
variable. More documentation is found in the "facedb" sections in the
|
|
|
|
|
xfaces man page. [NOTE: need to make mh-picon-directory-list an option
|
|
|
|
|
and add xfaces facedb documentation to it.]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** X-Image-URL Updates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now support the use of `curl' and `fetch' as alternatives to `wget' to
|
|
|
|
|
obtain the image. The display of images are controlled with the
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-show-use-xface-flag' option while the `mh-fetch-x-image-url'
|
|
|
|
|
option controls how the images are fetched.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WARNING: There are security concerns with this feature. Please read
|
|
|
|
|
the documentation for these options carefully before changing the
|
|
|
|
|
default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Updates to mh-identity-list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the field names found in `mh-identity-list' that refer to
|
|
|
|
|
the fields in `mh-identity-handlers' have changed in an incompatible
|
|
|
|
|
way from 7.4.4. In general, the symbolic names now have a ":" prefix
|
|
|
|
|
to avoid collisions with header fields. Before starting Emacs, edit
|
|
|
|
|
your .emacs and insert ":" before "signature" if you have defined it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can change your attribution in replies with the new "Attribution
|
|
|
|
|
Verb" field, and you can set your default GPG user ID with the "GPG
|
|
|
|
|
key ID" field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signatures can now be read from the `mh-signature-file-name' variable,
|
|
|
|
|
or come from a function, in addition to a named file. If you write
|
|
|
|
|
your own function, variables that you can use include
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-signature-separator-regexp', `mh-signature-separator',
|
|
|
|
|
and `mh-signature-separator-p'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The handling of these fields has been moved into a new
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-identity-handlers' option, an alist of fields (strings) and
|
|
|
|
|
handlers (functions). Strings are lowercase. Use ":signature" for
|
|
|
|
|
Signature and ":pgg-default-user-id" for GPG Key ID. The function
|
|
|
|
|
associated with the string "default" is used if no other functions are
|
|
|
|
|
appropriate. For this reason, don't name a header field "Default".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you point your signature at a vCard file with a vcf suffix, then it
|
|
|
|
|
will be incorporated as a vCard body part (closes SF #802723).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Catchup Command
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is a new "F c (mh-catchup)" command that marks all unread
|
|
|
|
|
messages in the current folder as read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Change Content-Type Renderer on the Fly in MH-Show Buffer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This has been implemented by adding the key binding "K e
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-display-with-external-viewer)". For inline text/html parts,
|
|
|
|
|
buttons aren't displayed by default. In that case use "K t
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-toggle-mime-buttons)" to display the button before viewing it with
|
|
|
|
|
an external browser (closes SF #839318).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use which-func-mode to Display Folder in Index Mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Turning on `which-func-mode' displays the folder name of the message
|
|
|
|
|
under the cursor in index folders (closes SF #855520).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Render Signature and vCard in Italics
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This has been implemented. Use `mh-show-signature-face' to customize
|
|
|
|
|
the face used (closes SF #802722).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New Print Map
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is now a keymap for the printing functions whose prefix is "P".
|
|
|
|
|
The command "l (mh-print-msg)" has been replaced with "P l". Other new
|
|
|
|
|
functions in this keymap include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
P A mh-ps-print-toggle-mime
|
|
|
|
|
P C mh-ps-print-toggle-color
|
|
|
|
|
P F mh-ps-print-toggle-faces
|
|
|
|
|
P M mh-ps-print-toggle-mime
|
|
|
|
|
P f mh-ps-print-msg-file
|
|
|
|
|
P l mh-print-msg
|
|
|
|
|
P p mh-ps-print-msg
|
|
|
|
|
P s mh-ps-print-msg-show
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Draft Buffer Keymap Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The keymap in the draft buffer has been modified slightly. The old
|
|
|
|
|
anonymous ftp and tar composition commands have been reinstated and
|
|
|
|
|
letter signing and encrypting keymaps have been added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The type of signing or encryption has been generalized so the method
|
|
|
|
|
is now an option rather than a part of the function's name. The option
|
|
|
|
|
is `mh-mml-method-default' and choices include PGP (MIME), PGP,
|
|
|
|
|
S/MIME, or none.

*** Speedbar: Highlight Folders With Unseen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The speedbar now renders the folders with unseen messages in boldface
|
|
|
|
|
which makes them easier to identify (closes SF #623369).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Quick Key Help
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "? (mh-help)" function now displays the help in its own buffer
|
|
|
|
|
called *MH-E Help* (closes SF #493740 and SF #656631).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New Startup File mh-e-autoloads.el
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are installing MH-E yourself, then you can replace any
|
|
|
|
|
autoloads you may have with "(require 'mh-e-autoloads.el)". See the
|
|
|
|
|
README for details.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Glimpse Support Removed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since glimpse isn't free, we cannot mention it. Glimpse has been
|
|
|
|
|
removed from the option `mh-indexer-choices' (closes SF #831276).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-msg-is-in-seq Update
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Can now specify an alternate message number to "S s
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-msg-is-in-seq)" with a prefix argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

** New Variables in MH-E 7.4.80
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables that have been added to MH-E that have not been discussed
|
|
|
|
|
elsewhere are listed here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mail-citation-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hook for modifying a citation just inserted in the mail buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-reloaded-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Invoked by `mh-alias-reload' after reloading aliases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-auto-fields-prompt-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means to prompt before sending if fields in
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-auto-fields-list' are inserted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-default-folder-for-message-function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Function to select a default folder for refiling or `Fcc'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-forward-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Invoked on the forwarded letter by "f (mh-forward)".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-invisible-header-fields-default
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
List of hidden header fields. The header fields listed in this option
|
|
|
|
|
are hidden, although you can check off any field that you would like
|
|
|
|
|
to see. Header fields that you would like to hide that aren't listed
|
|
|
|
|
can be added to the `mh-invisible-header-fields' option (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#752045).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The option `mh-visible-header-fields' has been deleted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-junk-background
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If on, spam programs are run in background. This used to be the
|
|
|
|
|
default behavior but this could overwhelm a system if many messages
|
|
|
|
|
were black- or whitelisted at once. The spam programs are now run in
|
|
|
|
|
the foreground, but this option can be used to put them back in the
|
|
|
|
|
background.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-signature-separator-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means a signature separator should be inserted. It is not
|
|
|
|
|
recommended that you change this option since various mail user
|
|
|
|
|
agents, including MH-E, use the separator to present the signature
|
|
|
|
|
differently, and to suppress the signature when replying or yanking a
|
|
|
|
|
letter into a draft.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-variant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifies the variant used by MH-E. The default setting of this option
|
|
|
|
|
is `Auto-detect' which means that MH-E will automatically choose the
|
|
|
|
|
first of nmh, MH, or GNU mailutils that it finds in the directories
|
|
|
|
|
listed in `mh-path', `mh-sys-path', and `exec-path'. If, for example,
|
|
|
|
|
you have both nmh and mailutils installed and `mh-variant-in-use' was
|
|
|
|
|
initialized to nmh but you want to use mailutils, then you can set
|
|
|
|
|
this option to `mailutils'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When this variable is changed, MH-E resets `mh-progs', `mh-lib',
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-lib-progs', `mh-flists-present-flag', and `mh-variant-in-use'
|
|
|
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you've set these variables in your .emacs, it is strongly suggested
|
|
|
|
|
that you comment them out. The MH detection code has been completely
|
|
|
|
|
rewritten and it is very likely that you no longer to set them and
|
|
|
|
|
their setting may confuse other MH-E settings.

** Variables Deleted in MH-E 7.4.80
|
2004-08-15 22:00:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables that have been removed from MH-E that have not been
|
|
|
|
|
discussed elsewhere are listed here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-system-aliases
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
System definitions should not be a user option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-junk-mail-folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since this variable can accept values other than folder names, it was
|
|
|
|
|
renamed to `mh-junk-disposition' to more accurately reflect the content.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.4.80
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many bugs were fixed in this version that aren't listed below.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-extract-rejected-mail Can't Do MIME (and Other Formats)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now handles qmail and exim bounces (addresses SF #404965).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-rmail Hangs in XEmacs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We've determined that MH-E is incompatible with some versions of
|
|
|
|
|
XEmacs (21.5.9-21.5.16). More recent versions work fine. If you think
|
|
|
|
|
our list is too broad, please let us know which version of XEmacs you
|
|
|
|
|
are using (closes SF #644321).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Inconsistent Prompts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Prompt formats are now consistent throughout the application (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #730470).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Empty Shell Comments Confuse mh-mhn-directive-present-p
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you had a string that matched the regexp "^# $" in your draft, it
|
|
|
|
|
would cause an error. This has been fixed (closes SF #762458).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Quote Hashes When mhbuild Directives Used
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A related bug, if you had empty shell comments but inserted your own
|
|
|
|
|
directives, you'd get another error from mhbuild. This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
by quoting the hash ("^# $") like this "##" before submitting to
|
|
|
|
|
mhbuild (closes SF #762464).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Inconsistent Usage in Scan Formatting Variables
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The variables:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-cur
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-deleted
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-dist
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-forw
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-refiled
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-repl
|
|
|
|
|
mh-note-seq
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
used to contain strings. Although only the first character was read,
|
|
|
|
|
the entire string would be inserted which may have caused problems.
|
|
|
|
|
These variables have been converted to character constants so that
|
|
|
|
|
only a single character can be inserted into the scan line (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#770772).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Bad Handling of Aliases That Conflict With Local User Names
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a user name existed both locally and in the aliases file, the local
|
|
|
|
|
user would be flashed, but the alias would be used when sending. This
|
|
|
|
|
has been fixed so that the user name that is flashed is the same as
|
|
|
|
|
the name that is sent (closes SF #772595).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Args out of range
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In rare and non-reproducible circumstances, compilation sometimes
|
|
|
|
|
threw an "Args out of range" error. Nonetheless, this has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #806577).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-forward hard-codes '-mime' Switch on nmh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added new option `mh-compose-forward-as-mime-flag' that controls whether
|
|
|
|
|
messages are forwarded as MIME attachments (closes SF #827203).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Not Re-prompted to Sign After Pass Phrase Typo
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there were errors when sending a signed message (like getting the
|
|
|
|
|
pass phrase wrong), the MML markup remained in the draft buffer. The
|
|
|
|
|
draft buffer is now restored if there is an error (closes SF #839303).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Font-lock Gets Confused in MH-Letter Buffer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a user manually moved the cursor to the end of the header field
|
|
|
|
|
separator line (by mouse click or keyboard navigation) and hit Enter
|
|
|
|
|
to start typing their message, any line in the body with a colon would
|
|
|
|
|
be fontified with a gray background. This has been fixed (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#855479).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-refile-msg Fails to Suggest Folder for Empty Message
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you received a message with an empty body from someone who is
|
|
|
|
|
listed in your aliases file, "o (mh-refile-msg)" failed to suggest the
|
|
|
|
|
correct folder. This has been fixed (closes SF #917096).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Error Visiting Folder With no Unseen Messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you visited a folder without unseen messages and the option "flist:
|
|
|
|
|
-noshowzero" is present in your ~/.mh_profile, you'd get an error. This
|
|
|
|
|
has been fixed (closes SF #933954).

* Changes in MH-E 7.4.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.4.4 addresses programmatic issues from the FSF and prepares
|
2005-02-09 15:50:47 +00:00
|
|
|
|
MH-E for inclusion into an impending GNU Emacs release (22.1). There
|
2004-07-13 03:06:25 +00:00
|
|
|
|
are no user-visible changes (unless you are using XEmacs on DOS or
|
|
|
|
|
don't have the cl package installed). Filenames are now unique in
|
|
|
|
|
their first 8 characters (DOS 8.3 requirement). The runtime dependency
|
|
|
|
|
on the cl package has been removed. Desktop saving and restoration
|
|
|
|
|
code moved here from desktop.el.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.4.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-08-15 22:00:06 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Version 7.4.3 fixes the problem where `mh-identity-list' was not getting
|
2004-07-13 03:06:25 +00:00
|
|
|
|
set from .emacs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.4.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.4.2 fixes the accidental dependence on nmh (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#791021).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in MH-E 7.4.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

* Changes in MH-E 7.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 7.4 contains many new useful features including arbitrary MH
|
|
|
|
|
range handling, new draft features such as draft form editing, as well
|
|
|
|
|
as sequence propagation and manipulation. We've also fixed bugs and
|
|
|
|
|
added a handful of new variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Features in MH-E 7.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Add Arbitrary Ranges to MH-E UI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now handles any legal MH range (such as last:5 or 4 8 10-12)
|
|
|
|
|
wherever you're prompted for a message number or sequence (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#728638).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Remove Prompting in mh-send
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Brian Reid's original mhe didn't do prompting anywhere but used forms
|
|
|
|
|
instead. While we won't go that far, we eliminated prompting where a
|
|
|
|
|
form is already involved, such as in composing a message.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new customization variable `mh-compose-prompt-flag' can be set to
|
|
|
|
|
t to get the original behavior (closes SF #745622).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use TAB to Switch Fields in Header
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When composing a message, TAB and SHIFT-TAB can be used to move
|
|
|
|
|
quickly between header fields. The new customization variable,
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-compose-skipped-header-fields', contains a list of header fields
|
|
|
|
|
that are skipped and truncated if they are too long (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#745627).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Alias Completion in Composition Buffer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aliases can be completed in the draft with "M-TAB
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-letter-complete)". Or, if the customization variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-compose-space-does-completion-flag' is set to t, then a "SPC
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-letter-complete-or-space)" with do the same thing. If
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-alias-flash-on-comma' is non-nil, ", (mh-letter-confirm-address)"
|
|
|
|
|
will show the alias expansion in the minibuffer (closes SF #745634).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Auto Fields Should be Inserted During Send
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fields that were inserted by the multiple personality code when the
|
|
|
|
|
draft was sent now insert the header fields when the draft is composed
|
|
|
|
|
to give you a chance to edit them (closes SF #747890).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-index-tick-messages
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The command "F ' (mh-index-ticked-messages)" creates a buffer with all
|
|
|
|
|
messages ticked with "' (mh-toggle-tick)" in the folders listed in the
|
|
|
|
|
new customization variable `mh-index-ticked-messages-folders'. Chances
|
|
|
|
|
are that if you set `mh-index-new-messages-folders', you'll want to
|
|
|
|
|
set `mh-index-ticked-messages-folders' accordingly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, a general function, "F q (mh-index-sequenced-messages)"
|
|
|
|
|
has been provided that displays messages in the `mh-unseen-seq' in the
|
|
|
|
|
folders listed `mh-index-new-messages-folders', unless a prefix
|
|
|
|
|
argument is given, in which case you can provide both a list of
|
|
|
|
|
folders and a sequence (closes SF #718833).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Narrow to Region
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there is a region, "/ r (mh-narrow-to-range)" will only consider
|
|
|
|
|
those messages in the region. In addition, there is now a stack of
|
|
|
|
|
folder limits which can be popped with "/ w (mh-widen)". With a prefix
|
|
|
|
|
arg, all the restrictions are popped off of the stack (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#732823).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Narrow to Ticked Sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The buffer can now be narrowed to ticked messages with "S '
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-narrow-to-tick)" (closes SF #732825).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Display Multiple Buttons for multipart/alternative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A new customizable variable,
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-display-buttons-for-alternatives-flag', was added to display
|
|
|
|
|
buttons for the alternatives. The default value is nil to retain the
|
|
|
|
|
current behavior (closes SF #741288).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Identity Menu Changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A menu item has been added that inserts custom fields if the To or Cc
|
|
|
|
|
header fields match `mh-auto-fields-list'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Variables in MH-E 7.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-local-users-prefix
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This string is prepended to the real names of users from the passwd
|
|
|
|
|
file. If nil, use the username string unmodified instead of the real
|
|
|
|
|
name from the gecos field of the passwd file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-passwd-gecos-comma-separator-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means the gecos field in the passwd file uses comma as a
|
|
|
|
|
separator. Used to construct aliases for users in the passwd file."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-interpret-number-as-range-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means interpret a number as a range. If the variable is
|
|
|
|
|
non-nil, and you use an integer, N, when asked for a range to scan,
|
|
|
|
|
then MH-E uses the range "last:N".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-kill-folder-suppress-prompt-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This new hook is invoked at the beginning of the `F k
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-kill-folder)' command. It is a list of functions to be called,
|
|
|
|
|
with no arguments, which should return a value of non-nil if you
|
|
|
|
|
should not be asked if you're sure that you want to remove the folder.
|
|
|
|
|
This is useful for folders that are easily regenerated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default value of `mh-index-p' suppresses the prompt on folders
|
|
|
|
|
generated by an index search.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
WARNING: Use this hook with care. If there is a bug in your hook which
|
|
|
|
|
returns t on +inbox and you hit `F k' by accident in the +inbox
|
|
|
|
|
buffer, you will not be happy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-refile-preserves-sequences-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means that sequences are preserved when messages are refiled.
|
|
|
|
|
If this variable is non-nil and a message belonging to a sequence
|
|
|
|
|
other than cur or Previous-Sequence (see mh-profile 5) is refiled then
|
|
|
|
|
it is put in the same sequence in the destination folder. Additional
|
|
|
|
|
sequences that should not to be preserved can be specified by setting
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-unpropagated-sequences' appropriately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-visible-header-fields
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Customize this instead of `mh-visible-headers', which is now a defvar.
|
|
|
|
|
This was done to mimic the relationship between
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-invisible-header-fields' and `mh-invisible-fields'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Variables Deleted in MH-E 7.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-visible-headers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the paragraph for `mh-visible-header-fields' above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Aliases Constantly Reloaded
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The system aliases are not loaded as often as they were, so the
|
|
|
|
|
completion speed has been dramatically improved if your passwd file is
|
|
|
|
|
large (closes SF #693859).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Folders in MH-Index View Not Saved
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you perform a search to produce an MH-Index buffer, the folders
|
|
|
|
|
that contain the messages are shown. If the MH-Index buffer was
|
|
|
|
|
deleted, or Emacs was restarted and the corresponding folder
|
|
|
|
|
rescanned, the folder information would be lost. This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
by saving the information in a file called ".mhe_index" (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#701762).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Ticking Messages in +mhe-index/new
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a new message in a buffer created by "F n" was ticked (with "'"),
|
|
|
|
|
the message would not be added to the tick sequence in the source
|
|
|
|
|
folder. This has been fixed so that any sequence changes in any index
|
|
|
|
|
folder (from within MH-E of course) are now reflected back to the
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding source folder (closes SF #709664).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Custom Vars Set by a Function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default setting of customization variable `mh-summary-height' is
|
|
|
|
|
now `nil' which means MH-E will change the size dynamically according
|
|
|
|
|
to the size of the frame (closes SF #723267).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Folder Completion Slow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first folder completion was very slow. This has been fixed (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #730426).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Tick Sequence Persistent When Refiled
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sequences are now preserved when messages are refiled (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#737128).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Auto-inserted Header Fields Inconsistent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For consistency, all automatically inserted header fields (such as
|
|
|
|
|
X-Mailer and X-Face) are added when the draft is first presented to
|
|
|
|
|
you. This also gives you a chance to edit or delete them if necessary
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #745624). Note that we would be distressed if you deleted
|
|
|
|
|
the X-Mailer field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Toolbar Spec Error
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following message appeared when displaying a message in XEmacs:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Signaling: (error "Toolbar spec must be list or nil" )
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This has been fixed (closes SF #745655).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-index-search Doesn't Find Short Acronyms
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Swish typically ignores words with fewer than four letters, but will
|
|
|
|
|
still look for acronyms. Unfortunately, MH-E was downcasing the input
|
|
|
|
|
words which defeated this feature. This has been fixed (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#755718).

* Changes in MH-E 7.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
This release includes the new features of an index view of unseen
|
|
|
|
|
messages in all folders, spam software support, relative folder
|
|
|
|
|
specification @ support, marking messages, recipient handling by
|
|
|
|
|
mh-default-folder-list, Face and X-Image-URL header field support, and
|
|
|
|
|
Fcc completion. Function arguments have been unified. Bugs have been
|
|
|
|
|
fixed.

** New Features in MH-E 7.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Unified Function Arguments
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any function with MSG-OR-SEQ in its docstring uses the displayed
|
|
|
|
|
message by default for this argument. However, if a prefix argument is
|
|
|
|
|
provided, then the user is prompted for a message sequence. If the
|
|
|
|
|
variable `transient-mark-mode' is non-nil and the mark is active, then
|
|
|
|
|
the function operates on the messages in the selected region. In a
|
|
|
|
|
program, MSG-OR-SEQ can be a message number, a list of message
|
|
|
|
|
numbers, a region in a cons cell, or a sequence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** MH-Index View of Unseen Messages
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use "F n (mh-index-new-messages)" or Folder -> View New Messages menu
|
|
|
|
|
item to display messages in the `mh-unseen-seq' sequence in folders
|
|
|
|
|
specified by `mh-index-new-messages-folders'. With a prefix argument,
|
|
|
|
|
enter a space-separated list of folders, or nothing to search all
|
|
|
|
|
folders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Like other MH-Index folders, use "v (mh-index-visit-folder)" if you
|
|
|
|
|
wish to visit the original folder with the unseen message. This is
|
|
|
|
|
usually not necessary since the original message is annotated if you
|
|
|
|
|
reply, deleted if you delete the message, or refiled if you refile the
|
|
|
|
|
message (closes SF #701756).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Spam Software Support
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now supports several spam filters including Bogofilter,
|
|
|
|
|
SpamProbe, and SpamAssassin. Spam that is mistakenly considered to be
|
|
|
|
|
good mail can be reclassified as spam with "J b (mh-junk-blacklist)".
|
|
|
|
|
Conversely, good mail that is accidently considered to be spam can be
|
|
|
|
|
reclassified with "J w (mh-junk-whitelist)" (closes SF #669518).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a message is blacklisted, and `mh-junk-mail-folder' is a string,
|
|
|
|
|
then the message is refiled to that folder. If this variable is nil,
|
|
|
|
|
the message is deleted. If a message is whitelisted, then the message
|
|
|
|
|
is refiled to `mh-inbox'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To change the spam program being used, customize `mh-junk-program'.
|
|
|
|
|
This should only be necessary if you have multiple filters on your
|
|
|
|
|
system and MH-E picked the wrong one. These customization variables
|
|
|
|
|
are found in the new customization group `mh-junk'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The documentation for the following functions describes what setup is
|
|
|
|
|
needed for the different spam fighting programs:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- `mh-bogofilter-blacklist'
|
|
|
|
|
- `mh-spamprobe-blacklist'
|
|
|
|
|
- `mh-spamassassin-blacklist'
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Relative Folder Specification @ Supported
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now use the relative folder marker @ in folder names (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #666774).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Marking Messages
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages can now be highlighted with "' (mh-toggle-tick)", Sequence ->
|
|
|
|
|
Toggle Tick Mark menu item or the "Toggle tick mark" button. These
|
|
|
|
|
messages are added to the "tick" sequence, although this sequence can
|
|
|
|
|
be changed in `mh-tick-seq'. The highlighting effect can be modified
|
|
|
|
|
by customizing `mh-folder-tick-face' (closes SF #623367).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is also a new keybinding "/ ' (mh-narrow-to-tick)" and menu item
|
|
|
|
|
Sequence -> Narrow to Tick Sequence to narrow the view to the
|
|
|
|
|
highlighted messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
*** mh-default-folder-list Now Takes Recipients
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you wish to file a message based upon the recipient of a message
|
|
|
|
|
(such as a mailing list), you can now indicate that when filling out
|
|
|
|
|
the address in the `mh-default-folder-list' customization variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Face Header Field Supported
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition to the X-Face header field, the Face header field, which
|
|
|
|
|
can display color images, is now supported. As a bonus, the external
|
|
|
|
|
xface-e21 library is no longer required.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-04-25 06:14:09 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** X-Image-URL Support
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|

** New Variables in MH-E 7.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables that have been added to MH-E that have not been discussed
|
|
|
|
|
elsewhere are listed here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-auto-fields-list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alist of addresses for which header lines are automatically inserted.
|
|
|
|
|
When a regular expression matches in the To or cc fields of a message,
|
|
|
|
|
the corresponding header field is automatically inserted in the
|
|
|
|
|
message header. It also allows the automatic setting of an identity
|
|
|
|
|
(using `mh-insert-identity') to set an alternate identity when sending
|
|
|
|
|
messages to a certain person or mailing list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since this is a more general use of `mh-insert-mail-followup-to-flag'
|
|
|
|
|
and `mh-insert-mail-followup-to-list', these variables have been removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-xface-face
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Face for displaying the X-Face image.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-xemacs-toolbar-position
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This customization variable allows the user to place the toolbar on
|
|
|
|
|
the four edges of the frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-xemacs-use-toolbar-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This customization variable is used to enable or disable the toolbar
|
|
|
|
|
under XEmacs.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Variables Deleted in MH-E 7.3
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Variables that have been removed from MH-E that have not been
|
|
|
|
|
discussed elsewhere are listed here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-decode-content-transfer-encoded-message-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No longer needed since the external program mimencode is no longer
|
|
|
|
|
used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-index-show-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This hook was never used, so it was removed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-tool-bar-reply-3-buttons-flag
|
|
|
|
|

*** Can't Refile Message
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages with invalid addresses were causing errors in ali which
|
|
|
|
|
prevented the refiling of messages. The ali error is now shown in the
|
|
|
|
|
"*MH-E Log*" buffer and refiling suggests the last folder used (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #680388).

*** Empty Body Triggers Duped Header
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the body was empty the header would be treated like the body and
|
|
|
|
|
was therefore displayed twice. This has been fixed (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#681162).

*** mml or mhl Directives Not Always Processed
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mml and mhl directives used to create body parts were not
|
|
|
|
|
processed if one re-edited a draft, or if they added the directives
|
|
|
|
|
manually. The directives are now always processed upon sending the
|
|
|
|
|
letter. You may still, of course, use "C-c C-m m (mh-mml-to-mime)" or
|
|
|
|
|
"C-c C-e (mh-edit-mhn)" to manually create the MIME body parts from
|
|
|
|
|
the directives and then send the draft.

*** mh-alias-grab-from-field Fails
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E was adding aliases with angle brackets around the address when
|
|
|
|
|
there wasn't a phrase (usually, the user's name), to go with it. This
|
|
|
|
|
caused ali to fail which caused problems in MH-E. This is probably a
|
|
|
|
|
bug in ali, but MH-E no longer inserts angle brackets around the
|
|
|
|
|
address unless there is a phrase, which avoids the problem (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#690216).

*** XEmacs Fixes
|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E is now fully supported under XEmacs and compiles without any
|
|
|
|
|
warnings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, the following now work under XEmacs:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- X-Face, Face, and X-Image-URL header fields
|
|
|
|
|
- MH-E logo in mode line
|
|
|
|
|
- Emphasis (bold, italics, etc.)

|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The last 100 lines of log messages are kept in the *MH-E Log* buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
Previously, the buffer was erased every time it was written (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#685476). In addition, many of the MH-E commands now send their output
|
|
|
|
|
into this buffer instead of a plethora of other special-purpose
|
|
|
|
|
buffers.

|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The function `mh-inc-folder' no longer calls `mh-show' if point is not
|
|
|
|
|
on a valid scan line. This keeps `mh-inc-folder' from complaining
|
|
|

(closes SF #678115).

|
2003-04-25 05:52:00 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When printing a sequence, the header simply indicated that a sequence,
|
|
|
|
|
but not which one, was being printed and did not show the message
|
|
|
|
|
number. This has been fixed. If more than one message is printed, a
|
|
|
|
|
page of the scan lines is printed and its header indicates the
|
|
|
|
|
sequence or message range. The pages with the actual messages all set
|
|
|
|
|
the header to the folder and message displayed on that page.

MH-E was enhanced to decode message based on charset and

* Changes in MH-E 7.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release includes the new features of filing hints, hierarchical
|
|
|
|
|
file name completion, indexed search and pick integration, unification
|
|
|
|
|
between `mh-visit-folder' and the speedbar, a displayed message
|
|
|
|
|
indicator, buffer name organization, support for mairix indexed
|
|
|
|
|
search, and last but not least, the MH-E logo has been added to the
|
|
|
|
|
mode line. Code that handles sequences and message regions runs
|
|
|
|
|
faster. Bugs have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Features in MH-E 7.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Filing Hints
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you file a message, MH-E now looks for an alias corresponding to
|
|
|
|
|
the address of the sender and offers that as a default folder (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #657096). The new variable `mh-default-folder-prefix' can be used
|
|
|
|
|
to put these folders in a sub-folder. The new variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-default-folder-must-exist-flag' means to suppress the suggested
|
|
|
|
|
folder (thereby providing the previous folder used) if the folder
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't already exist. The new variable `mh-default-folder-list' can
|
|
|
|
|
be used to map additional addresses and folders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Hierarchical File Name Completion
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you completed filenames in the past, you were presented with a
|
|
|
|
|
list of all your folders at all depths in the tree. Now you are
|
|
|
|
|
presented with only one level at a time (closes SF #664821).
|
|
|
|
|
As a result, the variables `mh-auto-folder-collect-flag' and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-folder-list-change-hook' are obsolete.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Indexed Search and Pick Integration
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The indexed and pick searches have been integrated (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#664816). Both "F s (mh-search-folder)" and "F i (mh-index-search)"
|
|
|
|
|
use the pick template for forming queries. To submit the query, use
|
|
|
|
|
"C-c C-c (mh-do-search)" which will use the query method you selected.
|
|
|
|
|
If you change your mind while forming the query, you can use "C-c C-i
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-index-do-search)" or "C-c C-p (mh-pick-do-search)" to submit the
|
|
|
|
|
query using the respective method.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Second, the results from a pick search are now saved in a sub-folder
|
|
|
|
|
of +mhe-index like an indexed search.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Third, `pick' is now a valid choice for `mh-index-program'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-visit-folder Metamorphosis Continues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When visiting a folder from the speedbar, only the unseen messages are
|
|
|
|
|
shown if there are unseen messages. If there aren't any unseen
|
|
|
|
|
messages, all of the messages are shown if there are fewer than
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-large-folder' messages; otherwise, the user is prompted for the
|
|
|
|
|
range of messages to display. The "F v (mh-visit-folder)" command has
|
|
|
|
|
been modified to mimic this behavior. Use a prefix arg to force the
|
|
|
|
|
message range prompt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Displayed Message Indicator
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In graphical Emacs, the message that is shown is marked by a triangle
|
|
|
|
|
in the fringe. In textual Emacs, there is a ">" in the first column
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #664824).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Buffer Name Organization
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All ephemeral buffer names start with " *mh" while all interesting
|
|
|
|
|
buffers start with "*MH-E ". The "*Folders*", "*Sequences*", and
|
|
|
|
|
"*Recipients*" buffers were therefore renamed to "*MH-E Folders*",
|
|
|
|
|
"*MH-E Sequences*" and "*MH-E Recipients*" respectively (programmers
|
|
|
|
|
should see mh-utils.el for the names of the new constants). Also, the
|
|
|
|
|
output of MH commands is saved in the "*MH-E Log*" buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-index-program
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add choices for `mairix' and `pick'.
|
|
|
|
|

** New Variables in MH-E 7.2
|
|

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-decode-content-transfer-encoded-message
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages that had been encoded with base64 were not decoded. This has
|
|
|
|
|
been fixed with this new function (closes SF #674190). As a result,
|
|
|
|
|
the variable `mh-decode-quoted-printable-flag' has been renamed to
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-decode-content-transfer-encoded-message-flag'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-kill-folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now restores previous window configuration (closes SF #664828).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-mime-display
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E was not using the charset defined in the content-type
|
|
|
|
|
header. This meant that mail in a different charset would not
|
|
|
|
|
be properly displayed. This has been fixed (closes SF #655123).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-read-address
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In XEmacs and Emacs20, this function would always prompt using "To: "
|
|
|
|
|
instead of using the command argument. This has been fixed (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#670913).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-rmail
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unseen messages are now shown in addition to new ones (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#667542).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-scan-msg-overflow-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Change the variable so that a space is always maintained in the
|
|
|
|
|
beginning of the scan line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-swish-execute-search
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The example configuration file in the docstring didn't show the
|
|
|
|
|
backslash in the FileRules filename. If the example had been used
|
|
|
|
|
literally by the user, no files would be indexed! This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #665888).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-thread-refile
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "T o (mh-thread-refile)" command did not provide refiling hints
|
|
|
|
|
like `mh-refile-msg'. This has been fixed (closes SF #664829).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-toggle-threads
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the threaded view was modified and then toggled, the standard view
|
|
|
|
|
may not have been accurate (as it contained a potentially old first
|
|
|
|
|
message to last message range). This has been fixed (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#626117).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-tool-bar-show-set, mh-tool-bar-letter-set, mh-tool-bar-folder-set
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clicking the customize and help buttons now deletes the other windows
|
|
|
|
|
in the frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-version
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "M-x mh-version" command displayed "Aliasfile: aliases". This has
|
|
|
|
|
been fixed (closes SF #664467). See Buffer Name Organization above.

* Changes in MH-E 7.1
|
2003-01-08 23:21:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release includes the new features of multiple identities and
|
|
|
|
|
alias completion. In addition, indexed searching has been revamped.
|
|
|
|
|
Various other features have been added and a few bugs were fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Features in MH-E 7.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Multiple Identities
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now supports multiple identities (closes SF #628782). That means
|
|
|
|
|
that you can have different From and Organization header fields (or
|
|
|
|
|
any other header field of your choice) as well as different signatures
|
|
|
|
|
depending on your context. Usually, the contexts are home and work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add your identities to the variable `mh-identity-list' and set the
|
|
|
|
|
default identity with the variable `mh-identity-default'. Your
|
|
|
|
|
identity can be switched on the fly by using the Identity menu or by
|
|
|
|
|
calling "M-x mh-insert-identity RET".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This functionality can be customized within the mh-identity group.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Alias Completion and Harvesting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The contributed file mh-alias.el has been rewritten and incorporated
|
|
|
|
|
into MH-E.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, aliases are culled from the system files
|
|
|
|
|
"/etc/nmh/MailAliases," "/usr/lib/mh/MailAliases," and "/etc/passwd"
|
|
|
|
|
(see `mh-alias-system-aliases') and from your "AliasFile" MH profile
|
|
|
|
|
component. These aliases are then used for completion in the
|
|
|
|
|
minibuffer when entering addresses. Within the header of the message
|
|
|
|
|
draft, "M-TAB (mh-letter-complete)" is used to do alias completion.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The package also provides for alias creation based upon the From
|
|
|
|
|
header field of the current message. Use the lasso button
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-alias-grab-from-field).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This functionality can be customized within the mh-alias group.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Index Folder Updates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The results of an index search "F i (mh-index-search)" are now stored
|
|
|
|
|
in a bona fide folder so that you can refile messages and reply to
|
|
|
|
|
messages directly from the result folder. This folder is a sub-folder
|
|
|
|
|
of +mhe-index and the name is based upon the search string (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#623321).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a prefix argument is given then the search in the current index
|
|
|
|
|
buffer is redone.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The index folder lists the names of the source folders as before.
|
|
|
|
|
However, instead of using RET on the name of the folder to visit the
|
|
|
|
|
folder, use "v (mh-show-index-visit-folder)" anywhere within the
|
|
|
|
|
results to visit that folder narrowed to the results of the search.
|
|
|
|
|
Additional functions have been added to navigate including "TAB
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-index-next-folder)", and "SHIFT-TAB (mh-index-previous-folder)."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-visit-folder Interface Updated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A change was made to the prompting of the message range. In general,
|
|
|
|
|
you can use the same format for messages and sequences as you can in
|
|
|
|
|
MH with a single exception: a single number means to scan that many
|
|
|
|
|
messages, rather than scan that message number. This turns out to be
|
|
|
|
|
much more useful than visiting a single message and is consistent with
|
|
|
|
|
Gnus and the MH-E speedbar (closes SF #655891).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If mh-visit-folder is called non-interactively and RANGE is nil then
|
|
|
|
|
all messages are displayed. This behavior is now documented and
|
|
|
|
|
provides backwards compatibility.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Threading Improvements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After incorporating new mail into a threaded folder, unseen messages
|
|
|
|
|
can be spread about. Two new functions have been added to make it
|
|
|
|
|
easier to find them: these are "M-n (mh-next-unread-msg)" and "M-p
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-previous-unread-msg)" (closes SF #630328)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Two new functions were added to delete and refile threads. They are "T
|
|
|
|
|
d (mh-thread-delete)" and "T o (mh-thread-refile)" respectively
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #630493).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, the key "k" used to be bound to the function
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-delete-subject': it is now bound to
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-show-delete-subject-or-thread'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New functions to navigate threads include "T u (mh-thread-ancestor)",
|
|
|
|
|
which can jump to the root message of the current thread given an
|
|
|
|
|
optional argument, "T n (mh-thread-next-sibling)", and "T p
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-thread-previous-sibling)"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Refiling of Messages in Region
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If mark is active and `transient-mark-mode' is enabled then all the
|
|
|
|
|
messages in the region are refiled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** vCard Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If a signature cannot be identified, but there is a vCard attachment,
|
|
|
|
|
then that vCard will be presented as a signature (closes SF #649216).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New Info Added to mh-version
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Information about Gnus versions available at both compile time and run
|
|
|
|
|
time has been added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Variables in MH-E 7.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The defcustom groups were reorganized. Rather than iterate the
|
|
|
|
|
specific changes here, you are invited to browse the groups with "M-x
|
|
|
|
|
mh-customize RET".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-completion-ignore-case-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means don't consider case significant in MH alias completion.
|
|
|
|
|
This is the default in plain MH, so it is the default here as well. It
|
|
|
|
|
can be useful to set this to t if, for example, you use lowercase
|
|
|
|
|
aliases for people and uppercase for mailing lists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-expand-aliases-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means to expand aliases entered in the minibuffer. In other
|
|
|
|
|
words, aliases entered in the minibuffer will be expanded to the full
|
|
|
|
|
address in the message draft. By default, this expansion is not
|
|
|
|
|
performed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-flash-on-comma
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specify whether to flash the translation of the alias or warn if there
|
|
|
|
|
isn't a translation of the alias.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-insert-file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Filename to use to store new MH-E aliases. This variable can also be a
|
|
|
|
|
list of filenames, in which case MH-E will prompt for one of them. If
|
|
|
|
|
nil, the default, then MH-E will use the first file found in the
|
|
|
|
|
"AliasFile" component of the MH profile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-insertion-location
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifies where new aliases are entered in alias files. Options are
|
|
|
|
|
sorted alphabetically (the default), at the top of the file or at the
|
|
|
|
|
bottom.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-local-users
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If t, local users are completed in MH-E To: and Cc: prompts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you set this variable to a string, it will be executed to generate
|
|
|
|
|
a password file. A value of "ypcat passwd" is helpful if NIS is in
|
|
|
|
|
use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-alias-system-aliases
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A list of system files from which to cull aliases. If these files are
|
|
|
|
|
modified, they are automatically reread. This list need include only
|
|
|
|
|
system aliases and the passwd file, since personal alias files listed
|
|
|
|
|
in your "AliasFile" MH profile component are automatically included.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-identity-default
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default identity to use when `mh-letter-mode' is called.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-identity-list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
List holding MH-E identity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-invisible-header-fields
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simple user interface to change `mh-invisible-headers'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-letter-complete-function
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Function to call when completing outside of fields specific to
|
|
|
|
|
aliases. By default, it is bound to 'ispell-complete-word.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-threads-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means new folders start in threaded mode. Threading large
|
|
|
|
|
number of messages can be time consuming. So if the flag is non-nil
|
|
|
|
|
then threading will be done only if the number of messages being
|
|
|
|
|
threaded is less than `mh-large-folder' (closes SF #646794).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-tool-bar-folder-buttons
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Buttons to include in MH-E folder/show toolbar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-tool-bar-letter-buttons
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Buttons to include in MH-E letter toolbar.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-get-new-mail
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Call new function `mh-add-cur-notation' to undo the work of
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-remove-cur-notation' if there was no new mail (closes SF #647681).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-set-cmd-note
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No longer updates the default `mh-cmd-note' value. This resulted in
|
|
|
|
|
the misplacement of the current mark when the message number width
|
|
|
|
|
changed (closes SF #643701).

* Changes in MH-E 7.0
|
2002-11-29 18:15:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a major release which includes a lot of new features including
|
|
|
|
|
improved MIME handling, speedbar folder browsing, and indexed
|
|
|
|
|
searching. In this version, MH-E runs under XEmacs, passes checkdoc,
|
|
|
|
|
and compiles clean under all supported platforms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The "passes checkdoc" feature above required changing the name of
|
|
|
|
|
several user-visible variables. It is likely that this affects you.
|
|
|
|
|
Please be sure to see the table at the end of these notes and rename
|
|
|
|
|
your variables accordingly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E has been written mh-e, Mh-e, MH-e and MH-E. We have decided that
|
|
|
|
|
the proper term should be MH-E. Please try to use MH-E in your
|
|
|
|
|
writing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Features in MH-E 7.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Speedbar
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is now support for the speedbar. Try "M-x speedbar" (closes SF
|
2003-02-04 14:56:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
#503727).
|
2002-11-29 18:15:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Press the middle mouse button on the `+' icons to open a folder,
|
|
|
|
|
middle mouse button on a folder name to open the folder. Folders with
|
|
|
|
|
unseen messages are shown in bold, so this is a handy way to browse
|
|
|
|
|
new messages that you have filed with procmail or slocal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the new customization variable `mh-large-folder,' which controls
|
|
|
|
|
when the speedbar asks for how many messages to scan when opening a
|
|
|
|
|
large folder and `mh-speed-run-flists-flag' whose default value of t
|
|
|
|
|
means to use the flists command to populate the count of unseen and
|
|
|
|
|
total messages in each folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Indexed Search
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interoperability with swish++, swish, glimpse, and namazu has been
|
|
|
|
|
added to enable lightening-fast searches of your mail. If none of
|
|
|
|
|
these are present, grep is used. Try "F i (mh-index-search)".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For more information, read the documentation for the functions
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-swish++-execute-search,' `mh-swish-execute-search,'
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-namazu-execute-search,' or `mh-glimpse-execute-search' depending
|
|
|
|
|
on your preferred indexing program to see what kind of setup is needed
|
|
|
|
|
to generate the index.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Threading
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use "T t (mh-toggle-threads)" to view the threads in the folder. Use
|
|
|
|
|
it again to return to a non-threaded view.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Brief Help
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use "? (mh-help)" and "X ? (mh-prefix-help)," where X is a prefix
|
|
|
|
|
character, for a brief synopsis in the minibuffer of frequently used
|
|
|
|
|
commands. In the MH-Letter or MH-Pick buffers, use "C-c ? (mh-help)"
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #493740).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Folder Keymap Shared by Show Buffer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now use the MH-Folder mode commands from the MH-Show buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
Because of this, the MH-Show buffer is now read-only (closes SF
|
|
|
|
|
#493749 and SF #527946) and you now have to use "M (mh-modify)" to
|
|
|
|
|
edit a message.

|
|
|
|
*** Better Scanning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You no longer have to modify your scan format if your folders have
|
|
|
|
|
more than 9999 messages in them. If you've only modified your scan
|
|
|
|
|
format file to allow for the wider message numbers, consider using the
|
|
|
|
|
default behavior of MH-E and simplify your MH-E configuration
|
|
|
|
|
considerably (closes SF #635791).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To do this, you may have to remove your modifications of
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan.*-regexp' and `mh-cmd-note' and your customization of
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan-format-file'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You may still want the updated format files for running MH commands
|
|
|
|
|
outside of MH-E; the default of `mh-scan-format-file' will cause them
|
|
|
|
|
to be ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you prefer fixed-width message numbers, set the new customization
|
|
|
|
|
variable to nil , set this variable to
|
|
|
|
|
nil and call `mh-set-cmd-note' with the width specified by the scan format in
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan-format-file'. For example, the default width is 4, so you would use
|
|
|
|
|
"(mh-set-cmd-note 4)" if `mh-scan-format-file' were nil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** X-Face
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E now displays the content of the X-Face header field in the From
|
|
|
|
|
field. When sending a message, an X-Face field is appended to the
|
|
|
|
|
header if it doesn't already exist and "~/.face" is present. See the
|
|
|
|
|
new customization variables `mh-show-use-xface-flag' and `mh-x-face-file'
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #480770).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MH-E depends on the external x-face package found in
|
|
|
|
|
ftp://ftp.jpl.org/pub/elisp/ to do this. The `uncompface' binary is
|
|
|
|
|
also required to be in the execute PATH. It can be obtained from:
|
|
|
|
|
http://freshmeat.net/redir/compface/1439/url_tgz/compface-1.4.tar.gz.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It has also been observed that if you don't see the faces, you might
|
|
|
|
|
have to do this (for unknown reasons):

|
*** Graphical Smileys
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Smiley's are now converted to cute little images. See the new
|
|
|
|
|
customization variable `mh-graphical-smileys-flag.'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Text Emphasis
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ASCII formatting is now converted to the appropriate font. For
|
|
|
|
|
example, _underline_ is underlined, *bold* appears in bold, /italic/
|
|
|
|
|
appears in italic, etc. See `gnus-emphasis-alist' for the whole list.
|
|
|
|
|
See the new customization variables `mh-decode-mime' and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-graphical-emphasis-flag.'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Attachment Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Inline attachments are now displayed. Regular attachments appear as
|
|
|
|
|
buttons in show buffer. Use "K TAB (mh-next-button)" or "K SHIFT-TAB
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-prev-button)" to cycle through these buttons. Use "K v
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-folder-toggle-mime-part)" to view, "K o
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-folder-save-mime-part)" to save one part or "K-a
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-save-mime-parts)" to save all parts, or "K i
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-folder-inline-mime-part)" to view the attachment inline.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See the new customization variable `mh-decode-mime' for additional
|
|
|
|
|
information. Other customization variables that affect this new feature
|
|
|
|
|
include `mh-store-mime-parts-default-directory' and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-display-buttons-for-inline-parts-flag'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
HTML documents can be viewed inline if Gnus v5.10 and w3 or w3m lisp
|
|
|
|
|
packages are present. Set the customization variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mm-text-html-renderer' accordingly (closes SF #453352).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Quoted-printable Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quoted-printable body parts are now decoded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** More Choices for `mh-yank-from-start-of-msg'
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Historically, if this variable was t, the entire message, with full
|
|
|
|
|
headers would be included and every line would begin with
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-ins-buf-prefix.' This usage is deprecated in favor of the setting
|
|
|
|
|
`supercite' below. The default has been changed to `attribution.' The
|
|
|
|
|
following symbols are now understood:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`body': yank the message minus the header.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`supercite': include the entire message, with full headers. This also
|
|
|
|
|
causes the invocation of `sc-cite-original' without the setting of
|
|
|
|
|
`mail-citation-hook', now deprecated practice.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`autosupercite': do as for `supercite' automatically when show buffer
|
|
|
|
|
matches the message being replied-to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`attribution': yank the message minus the header and add a simple
|
|
|
|
|
attribution line at the top.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`autoattrib': do as for `attribution' automatically when show buffer
|
|
|
|
|
matches the message being replied-to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is a new customization variable called
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-extract-from-attribution-verb' which is used for attribution which
|
|
|
|
|
provides a method for setting a different language.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Use Gnus mml Instead of mhn
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When inserting attachments into a message draft, Gnus mml directives
|
|
|
|
|
are now used instead of mhn directives. One beneficial side-effect of
|
|
|
|
|
this is that attachments can now appear inline as well as separate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new customization variable `mh-compose-insertion' controls whether
|
|
|
|
|
Gnus or mhn is used to insert MIME message directives in messages
|
|
|
|
|
(default: 'gnus, if the mml library exists).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Content-Type Now Obtained Automatically
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The value of the Content-Type no longer needs to be entered by the
|
|
|
|
|
user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Attachments Automatically Included Upon Send
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You no longer have to run "C-c C-e (mh-edit-mhn)" before sending a
|
|
|
|
|
message with attachments--this is done automatically when you send the
|
|
|
|
|
message with "C-c C-c (mh-send-letter)". There is, however, a new key
|
|
|
|
|
binding "C-c C-m m (mh-mml-to-mime)" which is analogous to "C-c C-e
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-edit-mhn)".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** GPG Handling
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Messages that have been signed or encrypted with GPG are verified and
|
|
|
|
|
decrypted automatically. To sign or encrypt a message, use "C-c RET
|
|
|
|
|
C-s (mh-mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime)" and "C-c C-m C-e
|
|
|
|
|
(mh-mml-secure-message-encrypt-pgpmime)." You need Gnus version 5.10
|
|
|
|
|
for this feature. These functions are provided by the pgg.el package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Users report "flashing" with the pgg.el package and prefer the gpg.el
|
|
|
|
|
package instead. To use gpg.el instead of the pgg.el package you need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(setq mml2015-use 'gpg)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To mimic automatic encryption in gpg.el, use:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(setq mm-verify-option 'always)
|
|
|
|
|
(setq mm-decrypt-option 'always)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The venerable mailcrypt package is also an option. However, now that
|
|
|
|
|
show buffers are read-only, mailcrypt version 3.5.6 and older fail
|
|
|
|
|
when they attempt to decrypt the contents.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Mail-Followup-To Header Field
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Support for this controversial field has been added because nmh
|
|
|
|
|
supports it (closes SF #627035). If you want to add it to outgoing
|
|
|
|
|
mail for selected mailing lists, add those mailing lists to the new
|
|
|
|
|
customization variable `mh-insert-mail-followup-to-list.' If you think
|
|
|
|
|
this field is evil, set the new customization variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-insert-mail-followup-to-flag' to nil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Gnus Issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you update Gnus, you must recompile MH-E. Note that if you are
|
|
|
|
|
running the stock version of MH-E that comes with Emacs or the MH-E
|
|
|
|
|
package on a Debian GNU/Linux, this is done for you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Variables in MH-E 7.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New customization variables not mentioned earlier include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-letter-insert-signature-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Invoked at the beginning of the "C-c C-s (mh-insert-signature)"
|
|
|
|
|
command. Can be used to determine which signature file to use based on
|
|
|
|
|
message content. On return, if `mh-signature-file-name' is non-nil
|
|
|
|
|
that file will be inserted at the current point in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-maximum-size
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Maximum size of message (in bytes) to display automatically. Provides
|
|
|
|
|
an opportunity to skip over large messages which may be slow to load.
|
|
|
|
|
Use a value of 0 to display all messages automatically regardless of
|
|
|
|
|
size (closes SF #488696).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-tool-bar-reply-3-buttons-flag
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means use three buttons for reply commands in tool-bar. If you
|
|
|
|
|
have room on your tool-bar because you are using a large font, you may
|
|
|
|
|
set this variable to expand the single reply button into three buttons
|
|
|
|
|
that won't lead to minibuffer prompt about who to reply to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-delete-msg, mh-refile-msg, mh-undo
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mandrake Linux includes XEmacs initialization code that binds
|
|
|
|
|
`transient-mark-mode' which causes problems in MH-E. These problems
|
|
|
|
|
have been fixed (closes SF #541915).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-edit-again
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This would sometimes yield a read-only buffer. This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #624283 and SF #625538).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-forward
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When using nmh, always specify -mime so as to preserve the original
|
|
|
|
|
message(s).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-inc-folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you had narrowed to a sequence and then incorporated new mail,
|
|
|
|
|
those new messages would not be present in your +inbox when you
|
|
|
|
|
widened. This has been fixed (closes SF #489430, SF #489437, SF
|
|
|
|
|
#629233).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-insert-letter
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No longer uses mhl to include a message as this mangled the header and
|
|
|
|
|
gave supercite fits (closes SF #629153).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-letter-mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"M-q (fill-paragraph)" now fills quoted paragraphs (for example,
|
|
|
|
|
starting with "> ") correctly (closes SF #489927).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-02-04 14:56:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** mh-next-undeleted-msg, mh-previous-undeleted-msg
|
2002-11-29 18:15:21 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If there are no more undeleted messages the point remains at its
|
|
|
|
|
original position and a message is produced (closes SF #494304).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-pick-mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now calls `mh-pick-mode-hook' as documented.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-put-msg-in-seq
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now puts all messages in region in sequence (closes SF #630324).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-refile-msg, mh-write-msg-to-file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These functions stomped on the variables that held the name of the
|
|
|
|
|
last file and folder respectively for the other function. This has
|
|
|
|
|
been fixed so that the last folder or file name is preserved (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #580772).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-region-to-sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the region in MH-Folder was set with "C-x h (mark-whole-buffer)",
|
|
|
|
|
you couldn't perform operations on all of the messages as you would
|
|
|
|
|
expect. This has been fixed (closes SF #621632).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-reply
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Performing an undo the first thing after replying would blank out the
|
|
|
|
|
entire draft. Now just the insertion of the yanked message is undone
|
|
|
|
|
leaving the header and signature intact for additional editing (closes
|
|
|
|
|
SF #623693).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now calls `mh-show-mode-hook' as documented (closes SF #627222).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-subject-thread-to-sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make 'subject sequence a real one, exported to MH. This means you can,
|
|
|
|
|
for example, mh-forward it. But it also shows up with a mark in the
|
|
|
|
|
scan output (closes SF #489445).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Other Bug Fixes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following bugs have also been closed:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SF #495450: Folder buffer read-only after inc
|
|
|
|
|
SF #489706: mh-page-msg bombs out

|
|
|
|
SF #580772: mh-last-destination is overloaded

|
|
|
|

|
*** Variables renamed to conform with Emacs coding conventions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The coding conventions require that boolean variables end in -flag.
|
|
|
|
|
The following two tables show which variables were affected (closes SF
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Viewing folders and sequences
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The folder and sequence listings that "F l (mh-list-folders)" and "S l

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-folder-unseen-seq-name
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Byte compilation failed when initializing this variable when the
|
|
|
|
|
user's MH environment was not set up. This has been fixed (closes
|
|
|
|
|
Debian #140232 and Debian #140817).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-forward

When forwarding a sequence, the mode of the draft would not be set to
|
|
|
|
|
MH-Letter correctly. This has been fixed (closes SF #489448).

* Changes in mh-e 6.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mh-e is now maintained at SourceForge (see
|
|
|
|
|
http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/). This is where you need to go to obtain
|
|
|
|
|
new versions of mh-e, report bugs and receive support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The maintainers have moved much of their personal configurations into
|
|
|
|
|
the codebase, so you may find that you may be able to reduce your mh-e
|
|
|
|
|
customizations as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are several incompatibilities in this version from older
|
|
|
|
|
versions. Please read the following notes carefully for details. Pay
|
|
|
|
|
particular attention to the key binding changes in the MH-Folder
|
|
|
|
|
section. If you have customized your scan format, you will want to
|
|
|
|
|
read about the new variable `mh-scan-format-file'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The manual could not be updated in time for this release. It will be
|
|
|
|
|
updated in the near future. If the Preface in your manual indicates
|
|
|
|
|
the older version (version 1.3, for mh-e version 5.0.2), please check
|
|
|
|
|
the following page occasionally for an update:

** New Features in mh-e 6.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Customization
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mh-e now uses the customize feature of Emacs. Use "M-x customize-group
|
|
|
|
|
mh RET" to customize mh-e.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Menus
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All mh-e modes now provide menus that contain most mh-e functions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Toolbars
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All mh-e modes now have toolbar buttons for oft-used functions (Emacs 21).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Fontification
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All mh-e buffers now have font-lock keywords. To use, either call
|
|
|
|
|
(turn-on-font-lock) from the appropriate hook, or set
|
|
|
|
|
`global-font-lock-mode' to t. To customize, use "M-x
|
|
|
|
|
customize-apropos-faces ^mh RET".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have customized your scan lines, you will have to update your
|
|
|
|
|
scan regexps. The existing regexps were changed to extract a match so
|
|
|
|
|
you will have to add appropriate grouping constructs to take advantage
|
|
|
|
|
of the fontification. Your old settings will continue to work, but the
|
|
|
|
|
folder will not be fontified. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(setq mh-good-msg-regexp "^\\(.....\\)[^D^]")
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will most likely have to update the new variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan-subject-regexp' as well. There is another new variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan-date-regexp' which you may also find useful. Run "M-x apropos
|
|
|
|
|
mh.*regexp" for a complete list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mail-user-agent support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now set `mail-user-agent' to `mh-e-user-agent' so that packages
|
|
|
|
|
that need to send mail will use mh-e (closes SF #406883, SF #470024).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** replgroupcomps support
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you reply to `cc' or `all' and you use nmh, the nmh repl option
|
|
|
|
|
-group will be used. This means that the file `replgroupcomps' will be
|
|
|
|
|
used. If you have customized `replcomps', you will definitely want to
|
|
|
|
|
either copy `$NMH_LIB/replgroupcomps' to your mail directory and modify
|
|
|
|
|
it the same way that you modified your `replcomps' file, or simply
|
|
|
|
|
copy your `replcomps' file to `replgroupcomps'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** MH-Folder mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The variable `mh-summary-height' used to have a default of 4. It now
|
|
|
|
|
varies from 4 to 10 depending on the height of the frame.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Clicking the mouse on a message shows that message.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Delete, refile and undo now operate on a region (but only if
|
|
|
|
|
`transient-mark-mode' is non-nil).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
SPC (mh-page-msg) now displays the message if it is not already
|
|
|
|
|
visible. If the bottom of a message is showing, SPC (mh-page-msg)
|
|
|
|
|
moves to the next message (respecting the direction you are moving
|
|
|
|
|
through the folder).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-02-04 14:56:31 +00:00
|
|
|
|
The threading commands "T u (mh-next-unseen-subject-thread)",
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
"T t (mh-toggle-subject-thread)", "T s (mh-narrow-to-subject-thread)",
|
|
|
|
|
and "T k (mh-delete-subject-thread)" have been added. These functions
|
|
|
|
|
do not offer threading in the true sense of the word, but do allow
|
|
|
|
|
some manipulation by subject.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Major, major keymap changes. This was done to free up movement
|
|
|
|
|
commands in the buffer, and to provide for additional features, such
|
|
|
|
|
as the threading commands. At the same time, better and more
|
|
|
|
|
consistent mnemonics were realized that should make it easier to
|
|
|
|
|
remember key bindings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Added new sub-keymaps for folder commands, sequence commands,
|
|
|
|
|
extraction commands, and digest commands which begin with with F, S,
|
|
|
|
|
X, and D, respectively. These sub-keymaps allowed some consistency
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g., especially with l(ist) and k(ill)).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Here are the actual changes and rationale:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Old New Rationale
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e - Deleted. Already have x. Now used by mh-edit-again.
|
|
|
|
|
j - Deleted. Already have g.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
M-a e Better mnemonic. Matches rmail. Frees movement command.
|
|
|
|
|
M-e E Better mnemonic. Consistent with e.
|
|
|
|
|
- S Why not? mh-sort-folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
M-f Fv Frees movement command
|
|
|
|
|
M-f Ff Alias (keep?)
|
|
|
|
|
M-f Fo Alias (keep?)
|
|
|
|
|
M-k Fk No reason but to keep with folder commands
|
|
|
|
|
M-l Fl No reason but to keep with folder commands
|
|
|
|
|
M-p Fp No reason but to keep with folder commands
|
|
|
|
|
M-r Fr Frees movement command
|
|
|
|
|
M-s Fs No reason but to keep with folder commands
|
|
|
|
|
M-u Fu No reason but to keep with folder commands
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
M-% Sd Better mnemonic
|
|
|
|
|
M-# Sk Better mnemonic
|
|
|
|
|
M-q Sl Better mnemonic
|
|
|
|
|
C-xn Sn Frees up standard key binding
|
|
|
|
|
% Sp Better mnemonic for putting a message in a sequence
|
|
|
|
|
? Ss Shows sequences that message is in
|
|
|
|
|
C-xw Sw Frees up standard key binding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
M-n Xs Better mnemonic (extract shar)
|
|
|
|
|
M-n Xu Better mnemonic (extract uuencode)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
M-SPC D SPC Frees mark command
|
|
|
|
|
M-\177 D \177 No reason but to keep with digest commands
|
|
|
|
|
M-b Db Frees movement command
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As the number of variables increases, it is becoming important to
|
|
|
|
|
organize the mh-e namespace. Several variables having to do with the
|
|
|
|
|
format of scan lines were renamed, as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Old New
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mh-good-msg-regexp mh-scan-good-msg-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-deleted-msg-regexp mh-scan-deleted-msg-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-refiled-msg-regexp mh-scan-refiled-msg-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-valid-scan-line mh-scan-valid-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-cur-scan-msg-regexp mh-scan-cur-msg-number-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
- mh-scan-cur-msg-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
- mh-scan-rcpt-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
- mh-scan-format-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-msg-number-regexp mh-scan-msg-number-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
mh-msg-search-regexp mh-scan-msg-search-regexp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** MH-Show mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While the MIME support is not complete, quoted-printable body parts
|
|
|
|
|
are now decoded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some MTAs quote From at the beginning of the line with a ">". The ">"
|
|
|
|
|
is now removed in the display, but not on disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** MH-Letter mode
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New function "C-c C-o (mh-split-line)" splits lines in a draft
|
|
|
|
|
preserving the fill prefix and indentation. This is useful when
|
|
|
|
|
responding to several sentences in a single paragraph separately.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"M-q (fill-paragraph)" can now be used on the message that is being
|
|
|
|
|
replied to. The fill prefix such as "> " is preserved.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You no longer have to run "C-c C-e (mh-edit-mhn)" manually as this is
|
|
|
|
|
now done automatically when the message is sent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The X-Mailer header field is now added to messages as they are sent.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"C-c C-m C-i (mh-mhn-compose-insertion)" now makes a pretty good guess
|
|
|
|
|
at the type of file using the `file' command and no longer asks the
|
|
|
|
|
user for the media type. If the necessary version of `file' is not
|
|
|
|
|
available, the user is asked for the media type as before; however,
|
|
|
|
|
the list of media types is now taken from the system mailcap if
|
|
|
|
|
available. Failing that, the built-in list of types has been
|
|
|
|
|
supplemented so in most cases the type you need should be present
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #406883, #441179).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Variables in mh-e 6.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
New variables not mentioned earlier include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-insert-x-mailer-p
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default value of t means that an X-Mailer header field should be
|
|
|
|
|
added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-reply-show-message-p
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The setting of this variable determines whether the MH show-buffer is
|
|
|
|
|
displayed with the current message when using mh-reply without a prefix
|
|
|
|
|
argument. Set it to nil if you already include the message
|
|
|
|
|
automatically in your draft using "repl: -filter repl.filter" in
|
|
|
|
|
"~/.mh_profile."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-scan-format-file
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specifies the format file to pass to the scan program. If t, the
|
|
|
|
|
format string will be taken from the either `mh-scan-format-mh' or
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-scan-format-nmh' depending on whether MH or nmh is in use. If nil,
|
|
|
|
|
the default scan output will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you customize the scan format, you may need to modify a few
|
|
|
|
|
variables containing regexps that mh-e uses to identify specific
|
|
|
|
|
portions of the output. Use `M-x apropos RET mh-scan.*regexp' to
|
|
|
|
|
obtain a list of these variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-scan-format-mh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scan format string for MH, provided to the scan program via the
|
|
|
|
|
-format arg. This format is identical to the default except that
|
|
|
|
|
additional hints for fontification have been added to the sixth
|
|
|
|
|
column.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-scan-format-nmh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Scan format string for nmh, provided to the scan program via the
|
|
|
|
|
-format arg. This format is identical to the default except that
|
|
|
|
|
additional hints for fontification have been added to the sixth
|
|
|
|
|
column.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show-use-goto-addr
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Non-nil means URLs and e-mail addresses are highlighted using
|
|
|
|
|
goto-addr in MH-Show buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-letter-fill-column
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fill column to use in `mh-letter-mode'. This is useful to make the
|
|
|
|
|
lines a bit shorter to allow for quoting in replies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-folder-updated-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Invoked when the actions in a folder (such as moves and deletes) are
|
|
|
|
|
performed. Variables that are useful in this hook include
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-delete-list' and `mh-refile-list' which can be used to see which
|
|
|
|
|
changes are being made to current folder, `mh-current-folder'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-unseen-updated-hook
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Invoked after the unseen sequence has been updated. The variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-seen-list' can be used to obtain the list of messages which will
|
|
|
|
|
be removed from the unseen sequence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug Fixes in mh-e 6.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-edit-again and mh-extract-rejected-mail
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now insert a header separator (--------) which packages such as
|
|
|
|
|
mailcrypt expect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-find-progs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now uses `mhparam' to set `mh-lib-progs' and `mh-lib'. Added more
|
|
|
|
|
directories to `mh-progs' so that mh-e can autoconfigure in more
|
|
|
|
|
environments. Chances are that you no longer have to set these
|
|
|
|
|
variables, and if you do, you will only have to set `mh-progs'.
|
|
|
|
|
Unless, of course, you are using an ancient version of MH that doesn't
|
|
|
|
|
have `mhparam'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-folder-mode-map
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The DEL/<delete>/<backspace> change in Emacs 21 broke
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-previous-page'. This has been fixed (closes SF #228907).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-forward
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you had "forw: -mime" to your .mh_profile, forwarding a message
|
|
|
|
|
resulted in:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Search failed: "^------- Forwarded Message"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, the Subject field was not filled in. This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #223603).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-kill-folder
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The user is now always prompted before this action; the variable
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-do-not-confirm' is no longer consulted here. Therefore users who
|
|
|
|
|
wanted to set `mh-do-not-confirm' but didn't because of the
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-kill-folder' dependency may now do so.

2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** mh-make-folder-mode-line
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Properly deals with folders that do not have any lines in them. Prints
|
|
|
|
|
"no msgs" instead of "0 msgs". Does not try to print a range when
|
|
|
|
|
there are no messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-mhn-compose-insertion
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now gets the MIME type automatically (assuming the local file command
|
|
|
|
|
supports the -i and -b options). If this use of the file command is
|
|
|
|
|
not supported, the list of MIME types has been expanded to use the
|
|
|
|
|
system's mailcap file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-nmh-p
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This variable (t when nmh is in use rather than MH) assumed that the
|
|
|
|
|
string "nmh" is in `mh-lib-progs' or `mh-lib'. This has been fixed
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #441776).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-refile-msg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No longer lets you specify an empty folder (closes SF #476824).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-regenerate-headers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now suppresses "scan: bad message list" messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-print-msg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This function was looking for `mhl' in the wrong place on nmh on
|
|
|
|
|
Redhat LINUX 7.0. This has been fixed (closes SF #481128).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-show
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now updates `cur' sequence after a message is shown (closes SF #481772).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-showing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Renamed variable and function to `mh-showing-mode' to conform with
|
|
|
|
|
minor mode conventions. Added optional arg to function so it would
|
|
|
|
|
behave like a normal minor mode: no or nil arg toggles mode, 0 arg
|
|
|
|
|
turns off, non-nil turns on. This fixed the error that occurred when
|
|
|
|
|
`desktop-create-buffer' recreated mh-e buffers because it was calling
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-showing' with an arg.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-version
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixed for nmh. Now displays mh-e version correctly. Cleaned up output
|
|
|
|
|
and display `mh-progs', etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-widen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now attempts to stay on the same message number (closes SF #480922).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No longer wipes out pending deletes and refiles without warning
|
|
|
|
|
(closes SF #481036).

|
* Changes in mh-e 5.0.2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This version contains additional minor changes to integrate it with
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
reporter.el (requires reporter.el version 3.1c or later) and Emacs
|
|
|
|
|
19.30. The mh-goto-msg function is much faster, which also speeds up
|
|
|
|
|
several other operations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changes in mh-e 5.0.1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This version contains minor changes from mh-e 5.0 to integrate it with
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs 19.29.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* User-visible changes to mh-e 5.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: This being a major release, there are many internal changes.
|
|
|
|
|
This document lists only changes to the external interfaces of mh-e.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When upgrading, you must either explicitly reload the new versions of
|
|
|
|
|
all mh-e files that are already loaded or restart your Emacs.

** Major Changes and New Features in mh-e 5.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The emphasis for this release has been on consistency and
|
|
|
|
|
documentation. Many documentation strings were enhanced. Documentation
|
|
|
|
|
strings were changed to comments for internal functions and variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** There is now proper documentation in the form of a 75-page users
|
|
|
|
|
manual. The Texinfo source is mh-e.texi; the formatted Info document
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
is mh-e.info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** There is a new command `mh-update-sequences', which updates MH's
|
|
|
|
|
idea of what messages are in the Unseen sequence and what is the
|
|
|
|
|
current folder and message. `mh-quit' calls it. While
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-execute-commands' has always done this updating as a side effect,
|
|
|
|
|
the new function is faster.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** The MH profile entry "Inbox:" is supported.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** If the show-buffer is modified, the user is queried before mh-e
|
|
|
|
|
reuses the buffer to show a different message. This buffer is also
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
auto-saved and backed up correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-store-buffer' is significantly more robust. It now handles
|
|
|
|
|
messages created by a wide variety of packaging software. The status
|
|
|
|
|
message for `uudecode' includes the name of the file created. An error
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
is signaled if the subprocess exits with a non-zero status.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-search-folder' behaves predictably, adding messages found to
|
|
|
|
|
the `search' sequence. It correctly handles the case of no messages
|
|
|
|
|
found.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-burst-digest' (`M-b') now only rescans the part of the folder
|
|
|
|
|
affected by the burst. It is now much faster in a large folder.
|

|
** New Hooks and Customization Variables in mh-e 5.0
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-default-folder-for-message-function': new name for the old
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-msg-folder-hook', which wasn't a hook. The old name was confusing,
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
leading people to think they could use `add-hook' with it, when
|
|
|
|
|
actually `setq' is the correct way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-sortm-args': When this variable is used has changed. Now
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`mh-sortm-args' is passed if there IS a prefix argument to
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`mh-sort-folder'. The assumption is that for arguments you normally
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
want, you would specify them in an MH profile entry.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-mhn-args': new hook, a list of additional arguments to pass to
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
the `mhn' program if `mh-edit-mhn' is given a prefix argument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-edit-mhn-hook': new hook called by `mh-edit-mhn', the function
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
that formats MIME messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-folder-list-change-hook': new hook, called whenever the cached
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
list of folders, `mh-folder-list', is changed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-find-path-hook': new hook, called when entering mh-e.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-repl-formfile': new variable, used to change the format file
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
used by `mh-reply' from the default of "replcomps".
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** New variables to customize the scan format and notating:
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`mh-note-deleted', `mh-note-refiled', `mh-note-seq', `mh-note-cur',
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-note-copied', `mh-note-printed'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
** Key Binding Changes in mh-e 5.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `RET' runs `mh-show' for consistency with the Finder and Info. The
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
old binding `.' still works, but `RET' is now the standard binding.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `M-<' now runs `mh-first-msg' for consistency with `M->', which
|
|
|
|
|
runs `mh-last-msg'.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `C-c C-f C-d' in MH-Letter mode moves to a Dcc: header field.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `C-c C-f C-r' in MH-Letter mode moves to a From: header field.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `g' is now the standard binding for `mh-goto-msg'. The old binding
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`j' still works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
** Other Improvements and Changes to mh-e 5.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-lpr-command-format' no longer passes the "-p" argument to
|
|
|
|
|
`lpr' by default. The mail header typically has the date anyway.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** When prompting for a sequence name, if no sequences have been used
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
yet, mh-e will offer the first sequence the current message is in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** The patterns of more mailers are recognized by
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`mh-extract-rejected-mail'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-insert-prefix-string' no longer wraps the call to the
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
`mail-citation-hook' function in a `save-excursion' so the hook writer
|
|
|
|
|
can choose whether to leave point at the beginning or the end of the
|
|
|
|
|
yanked text.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-write-msg-to-file': The prompt now refers to "message" or
|
|
|
|
|
"message body" depending on which will be written. (This is controlled
|
|
|
|
|
by a prefix argument.) The file defaults to the last-used file instead
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
of supplying only the directory name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** mh-e uses message ranges when running MH commands. Thus "rmm 1 2 3
|
|
|
|
|
4 6" is now "rmm 1-4 6". This change makes it less likely to overflow
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
system argument list limits, and it might be faster, too.
|

|
|
** Bug Fixes to mh-e 5.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** mh-e's idea of the unseen sequence now stays in sync with MH's
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
better.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** Functions that are supposed to find fields in the message header
|
|
|
|
|
no longer look in the message body.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** mh-e would sometimes fail to remove the "%" from a scan line when
|
|
|
|
|
the message was removed from a sequence if the message was also in the
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Previous sequence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** The variable `mh-inc-prog' is now correctly used in all places.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-pipe-msg' runs the process in the correct directory.
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2002-10-01 20:27:23 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*** A partially scanned folder will no longer lose the "/select"
|
1999-10-03 12:39:42 +00:00
|
|
|
|
annotation when you execute marked deletes and refiles with `x'.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: there are many internal changes to mh-e in this release. If you
|
|
|
|
|
have the previous version loaded into your Emacs, you will probably not
|
|
|
|
|
be able to load this version on top of it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New Features in mh-e 4.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Background folder collection. The first time you are prompted for
|
|
|
|
|
a folder, you must wait while mh-e collects the names of all existing
|
|
|
|
|
folders. Now however, if you abort, collecting will continue in the
|
|
|
|
|
background, and you can do something else in Emacs until the
|
|
|
|
|
collection completes. Normally, mh-e will begin collecting folders
|
|
|
|
|
names in the background when you first load it; you can disable this
|
|
|
|
|
feature by setting `mh-auto-folder-collect' to nil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** There is support for composing MIME messages using the `mhn'
|
|
|
|
|
program from MH 6.8. See the documentation string for mh-edit-mhn.
|
|
|
|
|
(While composing a letter, type `C-h k C-c C-e'.) See also mhn(1).
|
|
|
|
|
There is as yet no support for reading MIME messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-show', typically on `.', repositions to the start of the
|
|
|
|
|
message if the message is already visible. It used to do nothing in
|
|
|
|
|
this case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The function `mh-unshar-msg' is renamed `mh-store-msg'. It now
|
|
|
|
|
does uudecoding, too. Someday it should do MIME. It remembers the last
|
|
|
|
|
directory you used and offers it as the default for next time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New function `mh-header-display', on `,', displays the message
|
|
|
|
|
with all headers, including those normally not displayed. Type `.' to
|
|
|
|
|
display the message normally again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New function `mh-list-sequences' lists the sequences in use in the
|
|
|
|
|
current folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** New function `mh-version' displays version information about MH
|
|
|
|
|
and mh-e. Please use the output in bug reports.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-quit' now burys the folder buffer and show buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** New hooks and customization variables in mh-e 4.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-pick-mode-hook': new hook called by new mode `mh-pick-mode'.
|
|
|
|
|
The pick buffer didn't used to have its own mode. Another advantage of
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-pick-mode' is that `C-h m' works in the pick buffer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mail-citation-hook': new variable for supercite.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-refile-msg-hook': new hook called by `mh-refile-msg' (and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-refile-or-write-again' when refiling).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-msg-folder-hook': new hook used by `mh-refile-msg' and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-to-fcc' to provide a default folder for user prompt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-show-hook': new hook called by `mh-show'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-delete-msg-hook': new hook called by `mh-delete-msg'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-show-mode-hook': new hook called by new mode `mh-show-mode'
|
|
|
|
|
for `show-' buffers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-comp-formfile': new variable so can customize `components'
|
|
|
|
|
file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-sortm-args': new variable, a list of extra arguments to be
|
|
|
|
|
passed to sortm by `mh-sort-folder'. Give an argument to
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-sort-folder' to suppress this behavior.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-send-prog': new variable so can customize name of `send'
|
|
|
|
|
program in case of name conflicts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-scan-prog': new variable so can customize name of `scan'
|
|
|
|
|
program to generate custom effects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-inc-prog': new variable so can customize name of `inc' program
|
|
|
|
|
to do fancy management of incoming messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-forwarded-letter-subject': new function used by `mh-forward'
|
|
|
|
|
to compute the Subject line of the new message. It is a small function
|
|
|
|
|
which can be replaced by the user for customization. Uses the new
|
|
|
|
|
variable `mh-forward-subject-format', which allows some simple
|
|
|
|
|
customizations without rewriting even `mh-forwarded-letter-subject'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-new-draft-cleaned-headers': new variable, header lines removed
|
|
|
|
|
by `mh-edit-again' and `mh-extract-rejected-mail' before offering a
|
|
|
|
|
message as a new draft.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-signature-file-name': new variable used by
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-insert-signature' to so can customize name of the file to insert.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-read-address': new function called to read all To: and Cc:
|
|
|
|
|
addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-msg-folder-hook': new hook used by `mh-refile-msg' and
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-to-fcc' to provide a default folder for user prompt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Key binding changes in mh-e 4.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `,' runs new function `mh-header-display'. It is like `.' but it
|
|
|
|
|
displays *all* the headers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `M-#' runs the new function `mh-delete-seq'. One used to have to
|
|
|
|
|
type `C-u M-%' to delete a sequence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `<' no longer does `mh-first-msg', but `M->' now does
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-last-msg'. This allows first and last to be consistent (`>' was
|
|
|
|
|
taken) and is more likely to be discovered by chance anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `M-d' runs `mh-redistribute', `r' runs `mh-reply' (on the theory
|
|
|
|
|
that the more commonly used function should be easier to type, and the
|
|
|
|
|
obscure action of redistributing can be harder to type).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `M-o' changed to `C-o' (`mh-write-msg-to-file'). It was
|
|
|
|
|
interfering with arrow keys for some people.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `M-n' now runs `mh-store-msg' (formerly `mh-unshar-msg').
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `b' no longer runs `mh-quit'; use `q' instead. `b' may be used in
|
|
|
|
|
a future version for something else.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Minor improvements to mh-e 4.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The mh-e code is now divided into multiple Emacs Lisp files, so it
|
|
|
|
|
starts up faster because Emacs doesn't have to load all of it at once.
|
|
|
|
|
(This change also makes it easier for the maintainer to manage
|
|
|
|
|
things.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** When searching for the directory containing the MH programs,
|
|
|
|
|
search the user's PATH in addition to the built-in directories, to
|
|
|
|
|
increase the chance of finding the MH programs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The subject for a forwarded message no longer has ugly square
|
|
|
|
|
brackets around it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The name of the folder is no longer appears twice in the show
|
|
|
|
|
buffer mode line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** When typing a folder name in the minibuffer, parent folders
|
|
|
|
|
complete to the trailing slash (/), for easier typing of subfolders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The folder buffer mode name changed from `mh-e scan' or `mh-e
|
|
|
|
|
show' to `MH-Folder', which makes the hook name easier to guess. Added
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-showing' to `minor-mode-alist' so there is still an indication in
|
|
|
|
|
the mode line of whether messages will be shown automatically.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-rename-seq' does completion on the old sequence name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** If called by a user who has never used MH on this system before,
|
|
|
|
|
mh-e runs the MH program `install-mh' to get them set up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** Undo history for previous messages is not kept to avoid wasting
|
|
|
|
|
memory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** The internal temp buffer used by mh-e has `buffer-offer-save'
|
|
|
|
|
explicitly nil. This change benefits people who change the
|
|
|
|
|
`buffer-offer-save' default.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Bug fixes to mh-e 4.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-to-field': don't bomb if no To: field.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-get-new-mail': restore annotations, e.g., cur, even if no new
|
|
|
|
|
mail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-rename-seq': verify that the new seq name was accepted by
|
|
|
|
|
`mark' before updating state.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-internal-seq': the Previous sequence is not notated, since it
|
|
|
|
|
would notate everything scanned.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-read-draft': don't call `find-file-noselect' so an
|
|
|
|
|
`auto-mode-alist' doesn't trigger `mh-letter-mode-hook' twice. Faster,
|
|
|
|
|
too.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-show': If user moves onto a message that doesn't exist, don't
|
|
|
|
|
leave the cursor in the show pane.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-delete-scan-msgs': use `equal', not `=', on the result of
|
|
|
|
|
`mh-get-msg-num', since it may be nil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-get-field': do anchored search so searching for `reply-to:'
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't find `in-reply-to:'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-widen': do nothing if not narrowed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*** `mh-clean-message-header': find end of headers even if no body.
