FWIW, checkout of these things took 5+hrs, staying on the local
.freebsd.org net w/o hitting the 'net at all.

Also, install a missing file needed for running pgp in expectk mode (which
is much nicer BTW since it can figure out the correct decrypt key).
Tweak expectk mode so that it copes with a slight output variation on a
non-US version of pgp (2.6.3ia). It appears the US version prints:
Key for user ID "Peter Wemm <peter@netplex.com.au>"
while the international version prints:
Key for user ID: Peter Wemm <peter@netplex.com.au>
I cannot follow tcl syntax very well, so this is my best guess..
distributed patches, and fix those that can't be used as is and supply them
in the patches directory. (Argh, most of the patches are relative to lib/,
others are relative to the top directory. bsd.port.mk can't handle this)
them however (newsgroups.patch) is relative to a different directory
than the others so I've left it out for the time being. I can fix this
by duplicating the entire do-patch clause from bsd.port.mk into the
Makefile so that different -d switches can be given for different patch
files, but that's overkill. Also, fix the md5 file as Satoshi pointed out.
(Translation: forgot to intialize the EXPECTK variable to {} so that if
expectk is not installed, it doesn't cause bad tcl syntax)
Pointed-out-by: several people
things like koi8-r recognition, background news (nntp) processing, ispell
support.
Note that there's a horrible hack here to work around a weakness in
bsd.port.mk. The distributed patches are relative to a subdir of ${WRKSRC}
and bsd.port.mk doesn't seem to allow clean overriding of that to patch.
I appended a second "-d dir" arg to PATCH_DIST_ARGS after the .include
that set up the string with +=. patch seems to use the last instance of
"-d dir" when there are several online (it's a simple parse-time chdir).
Prompted by: pst (who also sent a partial update)
for a complete list of changes.
Replace hand edited "official 2.0beta patches" from exmh web page with
the 2.0gamma versions (cannot use DIST_PATCHES, the patch files are not
directly useable due to pathnames etc). Each patch file is individually
documented.
Requested by: quite a few people
There is some major new stuff here over v1.6.9, including:
HTTP, HTML support (a functional www browser!), including proxy support.
News posting.
Message threading. (like news threading)
Display MIME images inline as well as text/html and enriched text etc.
DSN support.
Unseen-only display window.
multipart/signature support, "Intelligent signatures"
PGP key management can talk directly to the key servers over the web,
eliminating the email based query delays
Address book stuff, aliases etc.
