MH-E 7.85 released

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

* 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. 

*** mh-compose-forward and Default Message Number

Emacs 20 support

I was just thinking the same thing.

Are there any users out there still using Emacs 20? If so, please speak
up!

Otherwise, we'll probably discontinue Emacs 20 support in version 8.

Re: mh-e-announce

The consensus was to subscribe mh-e-users and mh-e-devel to
mh-e-announce, and so I have. Because folks might have procmail filters
set up to look for mh-e-announce mail, I did not unsubscribe anyone--I
leave that up to you:

  http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mh-e-announce

I apologize if I just got you to subscribe.

Unfortunately, the security of this setup with Mailman is less than
desirable since anybody can have the passwords for the mh-e-user and
mh-e-devel subscriptions mailed to their respective lists. Does anyone
know of good methods to subscribe other lists to Mailman lists? I could
create mh-e-announce-post which contains the mh-e-announce, mh-e-users,
and mh-e-devel and use Mailman's umbrella option, but that seems messy.

I also changed the posting policy on the lists so that you have to be on
the lists to post. I had not been aware of the spam thanks to my spam
filter (bogofilter), but when I checked out the lists at gmane, I
noticed that there was quite a bit.
