MH-E manual 8.1 released

The MH-E manual for MH-E 8.1 notes that forwarded MIME messages are now
inline, describes the new function `mh-show-preferred-alternative' and
new hook `mh-annotate-msg-hook', and adds documentation for the
`browse-url-at-mouse' key binding. The variant mu-mh has been renamed to
gnu-mh. Read on for more details.

MH-E 8.1 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

* Changes in MH-E 8.1

Version 8.1 fixes some issues with forwarding messages, respects the
MH environment variable, adds the abilities to use aliases with GPG
and show HTML even though it is discouraged. A new hook,
`mh-annotate-msg-hook', has been added.

** New Features in MH-E 8.1

*** Showing HTML When Text Is the Preferred Alternative

The `:' (`mh-show-preferred-alternative') function displays the
message with the default preferred alternative. This is as if
`mm-discouraged-alternatives' was set to nil (closes SF #1777321).

** New Variables in MH-E 8.1

*** mh-annotate-msg-hook

The `mh-annotate-msg-hook' hook is run whenever a message is sent and
after the scan lines and message are annotated. Hook functions can
access the current folder name with `mh-current-folder' and obtain the
message numbers of the annotated messages with `mh-annotate-list'
(closes SF #2032269).

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.1

*** Can't Use Aliases with GPG

Beta wiki offering

SourceForge is offering a beta wiki program. I've signed up and turned
it on. Please go to http://mh-e.wiki.sourceforge.net/ and check it out.
Rather than post, "I have an idea", just add a page for it and link to
it from the home page for now. It looks like there is a discussion forum
per page, so discussion can happen right there on the page.

I have a few ideas, but I'll hold back for a while and see what you
folks do with a blank page .

If you run into problems or have any feedback, please share it with us
at mh-e-users <at> lists.sourceforge.net; I'll summarize on the wiki beta
mailing list if the issue hasn't already been raised. The mailing list
is sitedocs-wikibeta <at> lists.sourceforge.net, by the way.

MH-E 8.0.3 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

Version 8.0.3 fixes errors in sending messages and in running spam
filter commands in certain circumstances.

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.0.3

*** mh-send-args Cannot Be nil

If `mh-send-uses-spost-flag' was set, an error would prevent the sending
of messages. This has been fixed (closes SF #1564742).

*** Missing Quotes in sa-learn Command Line

This has been fixed (closes SF #1565460).

*** Errors Associated with mh-junk-background

The Spamassassin filter commands were used inconsistently and
incorrectly; if `mh-junk-background' were nil, not all of the updating
would happen correctly. In the other back-ends such as bogofilter and
SpamProbe, a value of t for `mh-junk-background' would cause the
commands associated with these filters to fail. These problems have been
fixed (closes SF #1594802).

MH-E 8.0.2 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

* Changes in MH-E 8.0.2

Version 8.0.2 fixes the tool bar and `F n' on XEmacs, and `K a' on GNU
mailutils.

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.0.2

*** Tool Bar Not Displayed in XEmacs

The MH-E tool bar didn't show up in XEmacs; now it does. Thanks to Ted
Phelps <phelps <at> gnusto.com> (closes SF #1506846).

*** mh-mime-save-parts Assumes -store Default

It was assumed that -store was the default for both mhn and mhstore.
This has been fixed by using -store except when using nmh. Thanks to
Sergey Poznyakoff <gray <at> Mirddin.farlep.net> (closes SF #1513140).

*** F-n Doesn't Work

The fix for SF #1499712 broke `F n' (`mh-index-new-messages') on
XEmacs since a regular expression that XEmacs could not handle was
added. This regexp has been fixed (closes SF #1514424).

MH-E manual 8.0.1 released

MH-E 8.0 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

* Changes in MH-E 8.0.1

Version 8.0.1 works around a couple of bugs in GNU mailutils, spost,
and Windows. MH-E now requires the use of version 1.0 of mailutils due
to a bug in the folder command.

** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.0.1

*** Infinite Loop When Searching (mailutils)

The GNU mailutils folder command displays output when a folder doesn't
exist. MH-E didn't expect this and responded with an infinite loop
during searches. While this bug has since been fixed in mailutils,
MH-E has been modified to work anyway (closes SF #1499712).

*** spost Doesn't Have -msgid or -mime Flags

The post replacement spost does not support the -msgid or -mime flags.
A new variable `mh-send-uses-spost-flag' was added to control the use
of these flags (closes SF #1486726).

*** <2> in Search Folders Illegal in Windows

The <2> suffix to the search folder names contain illegal filename
characters in Windows. These cause searches to fail on Windows. This
has been fixed by changing the suffix to -2 (closes SF #1507002).

Announcing MH at SourceForge and update to MH book

Last summer, Bill Wohler, John Romine, and I decided that MH's
existence at the University of California, Irvine, had become
tenuous since John left UCI's ICS department.  We decided to
move the MH archive and book to SourceForge.

MH's new home is http://rand-mh.sourceforge.net/.  (We couldn't
get just "mh" because SourceForge won't allow names that short.)
Bill has done most of the moving and reorganizing... thanks, Bill!

------

THE BOOK: is now at http://rand-mh.sourceforge.net/book/.  Bill
took this opportunity to rework the look and feel and navigation.
Now that most of us don't have slow Internet access, there's a
single large table of contents (on the book's home page) and a
single index.  There's also a Google site search (though it may be
a month or two before all of the pages have been spidered).

If you want to contribute, please join rand-mh-devel <at> lists.sourceforge.net
[1].  One of us can make you a developer.  It would be great for one
of the MH mailutils developers to embellish the book if necessary.
Another idea that was floated was to convert the HTML to a wiki to
make it even easier for folks to contribute.  If anyone knows how to
do that automatically, please start a conversation on rand-mh-devel.

-------

THE MH ARCHIVE: Bill also tried to make sense of the entropic pile
of files at UCI and to repack them at SourceForge.  These files were
split into 5 packages: Archives, Contributed Software, Documentation,

"SourceForge.net Team": SourceForge.net mailing list service upgrade (Mailman)

Looks like SourceForge has implemented one of my feature requests. This
upgrade will make several things easier for me as list maintainer, so I
welcome it.

I imagine you shouldn't notice anything during the transition period,
but do be aware of it, and please let me know if you notice anything
unusual with respect to the mailing lists.

Greetings,

You are receiving this mail because you are listed as an administrator 
of a SourceForge.net project that has active mailing lists.  As a 
continued measure to improve our service offering, we are migrating all 
existing mailing lists to Mailman 2.1.8 (latest stable release).  This 
is the first major upgrade to the Mailman software used for mailing list 
service in more than four years.  We expect this upgrade to both improve 
security and performance, and to provide a number of features not 
available in our existing Mailman service offering.

We have been testing the new mailing list infrastructure for several 
weeks with the assistance of a few select projects.  Our general 

MH-E 8.0 released

Project home page at: http://mh-e.sourceforge.net/.

* Changes in MH-E 8.0

Version 8.0 supports GNU mailutils, S/MIME, picons, which-func-mode,
sports an improved interface for hiding header fields, improves upon
the MH variant detection, improves folder completion, makes the pick
search equivalent to the other types of searches, spruces up the tool
bar, creates the correct MIME type when including OpenOffice
documents, works on a Mac, adds colors to buttons for signed or
encrypted messages, incorporates new features introduced in
Emacs 22.1, fixes a bunch of bugs, and best of all, comes with an
updated manual!

Internally, MH-E now sports a new software organization which will
help future maintainability. As a side-effect, the number of XEmacs
compilation warnings has plummeted from hundreds to just three. CVS
users will notice that MH-E has been migrated from the CVS repository
from SourceForge to Savannah (but only for those files that were
already part of Emacs). As a result, the location of MH-E in the
load-path has changed, and mh-e-autoloads.el was renamed to
mh-autoloads.el. See section INSTALL in the README for details. 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.

While not related to this release, the MH-E mailing lists are now
gatewayed at gmane.org (closes SF #979308).
