See the end of the file for license conditions. * Changes in MH-E 8.2 Version 8.2 of MH-E will appear in GNU Emacs 23.1. This is a small release that includes internal changes from the Emacs team. A new hook, `mh-pack-folder-hook', has been added. There is a known bug where you can't attach attachments in Emacs 21. This will be fixed in 8.2.1. ** New Variables in MH-E 8.2 *** mh-pack-folder-hook The `mh-pack-folder-hook' is run by `F p' (`mh-pack-folder') after renumbering the messages. Hook functions can access the current folder name with `mh-current-folder'. ** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.2 *** New version of mh-mm-save-part Several functions have been updated with code from Gnus 5.11 (closes SF #2235022). * 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 GPG requires e-mail addresses, not aliases. So resolve aliases before passing addresses to GPG/PGP (closes SF #649226). *** mh-mml-forward-message: Disposition Should Be Inline The `f' (`mh-forward') function now forwards messages as inline attachments (closes SF #1378993). *** Illegal Filename Characters on Windows Filesystems The X-Image-URL cache created filenames with invalid characters on Windows. This has been fixed with assistance from Darel Henman (closes SF #1396499). *** Make Many Header Fields Invisible A vast landscape of header fields are now invisible. You may wish to browse `mh-invisible-header-fields-default' and clean up your `mh-invisible-header-fields' option. A permanent bug (SF #1916032) has been created where you can submit header fields that should be rendered invisible (closes SF #1701231). *** mh-forward Includes Messages in Reverse Order The `f' (`mh-forward') function now includes messages in ascending order (closes SF #1730393). *** Compile Fails on XEmacs 21.5 beta 28 This has been fixed with help from Henrique Martins (closes SF #1749774). *** Rename Variant mu-mh to gnu-mh The GNU mailutils MH variant was named inconsistently. The variant has been renamed to gnu-mh throughout. Thanks to Darel Henman (closes SF #1768928). *** Respect MH environment Variable Even if the MH environment variable was set, an error was generated if "~/.mh_profile" was missing. This has been fixed thanks to Xavier Maillard (closes SF #1946861). *** Enhance mh-mairix-regexp-builder Additional items have been added to the Mairix search string in order to support org-mode. Thanks to Nick Dokos (closes SF #1965704). *** mh-mh-to-mime and mh-mh-to-mime-undo Reset Modes The functions `mh-mh-to-mime' and `mh-mh-to-mime-undo' would reset the buffer to fundamental mode. This has been fixed thanks to Sergey Poznyakoff (closes SF #1966722). * Changes in MH-E 8.0.3 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). * 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@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@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). * 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). * 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). If you want to see the release notes for the alpha and beta releases leading up this release, please see: http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/emacs/etc/MH-E-NEWS?rev=1.25&root=emacs&view=markup ** New Features in MH-E 8.0 *** 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. *** Catchup Command There is a new `F c' (`mh-catchup') command that marks all unread messages in the current folder as read. *** 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). *** 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). *** Search Unification The old `F s' behavior of adding messages to the search sequence has been removed. The `F i' keybinding was deprecated and the new `F s' (`mh-search') command is used to initiate either indexed or pick searches. Within the MH-Search buffer (renamed from MH-Pick), 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). *** 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-Folder Keymap Changes 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' although we suggest you use the new `P p' instead. Key 7.4.4 8.0 ; - mh-toggle-mh-decode-mime-flag l mh-print-msg - / f mh-narrow-to-from - / r mh-narrow-to-range - / g - mh-narrow-to-range / m - mh-narrow-to-from F c - mh-catchup F i mh-index-search - F s mh-search-folder mh-search K e - mh-display-with-external-viewer K t - mh-toggle-mime-buttons P ? - mh-prefix-help P C - mh-ps-print-toggle-color P F - mh-ps-print-toggle-faces P f - mh-ps-print-msg-file P l - mh-print-msg P p - mh-ps-print-msg *** MH-Letter Keymap Changes The change where `mh-letter-mode' derives from `mail-mode' adds a few keybindings. Some are interesting: experiment! Only the keybinding changes for MH-E functions are listed here. 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. 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. Key 7.4.4 8.0 C-c C-e mh-edit-mhn mh-mh-to-mime C-c RET C-e mh-mml-secure-message-encrypt-pgpmime mh-mml-secure-message-encrypt C-c RET C-g - mh-mh-compose-anon-ftp C-c RET C-n - mh-mml-unsecure-message C-c RET C-s mh-mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime mh-mml-secure-message-sign C-c RET C-t - mh-mh-compose-external-compressed-tar C-c RET C-u mh-revert-mhn-edit mh-mh-to-mime-undo C-c RET C-x - mh-mh-compose-external-type C-c RET e mh-mml-secure-message-encrypt-pgpmime Prefix Command C-c RET e e - mh-mml-secure-message-encrypt C-c RET e s - mh-mml-secure-message-signencrypt C-c RET g - mh-mh-compose-anon-ftp C-c RET n - mh-mml-unsecure-message C-c RET s - Prefix Command C-c RET s e - mh-mml-secure-message-signencrypt C-c RET s s - mh-mml-secure-message-sign C-c RET t - mh-mh-compose-external-compressed-tar C-c RET u mh-revert-mhn-edit mh-mh-to-mime-undo C-c RET x - mh-mh-compose-external-type C-c C-f C-a - mh-to-field C-c C-f C-l - mh-to-field C-c C-f RET - mh-to-field C-c C-f a - mh-to-field C-c C-f l - mh-to-field C-c C-f m - mh-to-field *** 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! The `mh-to-field' keybindings were adjusted to be consistent with those in the MH-Letter mode. Key 7.4.4 8.0 C-c C-c mh-do-search mh-index-do-search C-c C-f C-d mh-to-field - C-c C-f C-f mh-to-field - C-c C-f C-r mh-to-field - C-c C-f RET - mh-to-field C-c C-f d mh-to-field - C-c C-f f mh-to-field - C-c C-f m - mh-to-field C-c C-f r mh-to-field - C-c TAB mh-index-do-search - *** Updates to X-Image-URL 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. The default of `mh-fetch-x-image-url' 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). 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). *** Updates to Speedbar The speedbar now renders the folders with unseen messages in boldface which makes them easier to identify (closes SF #623369). *** Updates to mh-msg-is-in-seq Can now specify an alternate message number to `S s' (`mh-msg-is-in-seq') with a prefix argument. *** Updates 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). *** 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). *** 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. *** Add :package-version Keyword to Options This `defcustom', `defgroup', and `defface' keyword was introduced in Emacs 22.1. MH-E has been extended to take advantage of it. With this keyword, you can now use `M-x customize-changed-options' to see what options in MH-E have changed between versions of Emacs. In a future version of Emacs, you'll be able to see changes between MH-E versions as well (closes SF #1452724). *** Render Signature and vCard in Italics This has been implemented. Use `mh-show-signature-face' to customize the face used (closes SF #802722). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). ** New Variables in MH-E 8.0 *** mh-after-commands-processed-hook Hook run by `x' (`mh-execute-commands') after performing outstanding refile and delete requests. *** mh-alias-reloaded-hook Invoked by `mh-alias-reload' after reloading aliases. *** mh-auto-fields-prompt-flag On means to prompt before sending if fields in `mh-auto-fields-list' are inserted. *** 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-compose-forward-as-mime-flag On means that messages are forwarded as attachments (closes SF #827203). *** 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-highlight-citation-style Renamed from `mh-highlight-citation-p' since it wasn't a boolean. The new name is also more descriptive. *** mh-identity-handlers Handler functions for fields in `mh-identity-list'. *** 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-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-junk-disposition Renamed from `mh-junk-mail-folder' since this variable can accept values other than folder names. *** 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-mml-method-default Default method to use in security tags. *** 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-signature-separator-flag On 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-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-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. *** 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. ** Variables Deleted in MH-E 8.0 *** mh-alias-system-aliases System definitions should not be a user option. *** mh-edit-mhn-hook Renamed to `mh-mh-to-mime-hook'. *** mh-folder-updated-hook Renamed to `mh-before-commands-processed-hook'. *** mh-highlight-citation-p Renamed to `mh-highlight-citation-style'. *** mh-index-new-messages-folders Renamed to `mh-new-messages-folders'. *** mh-index-program Renamed to `mh-search-program'. *** mh-index-ticked-messages-folders Renamed to `mh-ticked-messages-folders'. *** 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. *** mh-kill-folder-suppress-prompt-hook Renamed to `mh-kill-folder-suppress-prompt-hooks'. *** mh-letter-insert-signature-hook Renamed to `mh-insert-signature-hook'. *** mh-pick-mode-hook Renamed to `mh-search-mode-hook'. *** mh-show-use-goto-addr-flag This flag was redundant with and inconsistent with `goto-address-highlight-p' at the same time, so we removed it. Please customize `goto-address-highlight-p' if you wish to turn off email address and URL highlighting. *** mh-speed-flists-interval Renamed to `mh-speed-update-interval'. *** mh-speed-run-flists-flag Deleted since setting `mh-speed-flists-interval' to 0 accomplishes the same thing. *** mh-visible-header-fields Deleted since it would hide new header fields you might want to see. *** mh-xemacs-toolbar-position Renamed to `mh-xemacs-tool-bar-position'. *** mh-xemacs-use-toolbar-flag Renamed to `mh-xemacs-use-tool-bar-flag'. *** mh-yank-from-start-of-msg Renamed to `mh-yank-behavior'. *** mhl-formfile Renamed to `mh-mhl-format-file'. ** New Faces in MH-E 8.0 *** mh-folder-address Renamed from `mh-folder-address-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-body Renamed from `mh-folder-body-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-cur-msg-number Renamed from `mh-folder-cur-msg-number-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-date Renamed from `mh-folder-date-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-deleted Renamed from `mh-folder-deleted-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-followup Renamed from `mh-folder-followup-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-msg-number Renamed from `mh-folder-msg-number-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-refiled Renamed from `mh-folder-refiled-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-sent-to-me-hint Fontification hint face in messages sent directly to us. *** mh-folder-sent-to-me-sender Sender face in messages sent directly to us. *** mh-folder-subject Renamed from `mh-folder-subject-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-tick Renamed from `mh-folder-tick-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-to Renamed from `mh-folder-to-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-letter-header-field Renamed from `mh-letter-header-field-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-search-folder Renamed from `mh-index-folder-face'. *** mh-show-cc Renamed from `mh-show-cc-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-date Renamed from `mh-show--face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-from Renamed from `mh-show-from-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-header Renamed from `mh-show-header-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-pgg-bad Face used to highlight a bad PGG signature. *** mh-show-pgg-good Face used to highlight a good PGG signature. *** mh-show-pgg-unknown Face used to highlight a PGG signature whose status is unknown. This face is also used for a signature when the signer is untrusted. *** mh-show-signature Face used to highlight the signature. *** mh-show-subject Renamed from `mh-show-subject-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-to Renamed from `mh-show-to-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-xface Renamed from `mh-show-xface-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-folder Renamed from `mh-speedbar-folder-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-folder-with-unseen-messages Renamed from `mh-speedbar-folder-with-unseen-messages-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-selected-folder Renamed from `mh-speedbar-selected-folder-face' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-selected-folder-with-unseen-messages Renamed from `mh-speedbar-selected-folder-with-unseen-messages-face' per new Emacs conventions. ** Faces Deleted in MH-E 8.0 *** mh-folder-address-face Renamed to `mh-folder-address' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-body-face Renamed to `mh-folder-body' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-cur-msg-face Deleted. Not used. *** mh-folder-cur-msg-number-face Renamed to `mh-folder-cur-msg-number' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-date-face Renamed to `mh-folder-date' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-deleted-face Renamed to `mh-folder-deleted' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-followup-face Renamed to `mh-folder-followup' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-msg-number-face Renamed to `mh-folder-msg-number' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-refiled-face Renamed to `mh-folder-refiled' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-subject-face Renamed to `mh-folder-subject' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-tick-face Renamed to `mh-folder-tick' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-folder-to-face Renamed to `mh-folder-to' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-index-folder-face Renamed to `mh-search-folder'. *** mh-letter-header-field-face Renamed to `mh-letter-header-field' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-cc-face Renamed to `mh-show-cc' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-date-face Renamed to `mh-show-date' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-from-face Renamed to `mh-show-from' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-header-face Renamed to `mh-show-header' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-subject-face Renamed to `mh-show-subject' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-to-face Renamed to `mh-show-to' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-show-xface-face Renamed to `mh-show-xface' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-folder-face Renamed to `mh-speedbar-folder' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-folder-with-unseen-messages-face Renamed to `mh-speedbar-folder-with-unseen-messages' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-selected-folder-face Renamed to `mh-speedbar-selected-folder' per new Emacs conventions. *** mh-speedbar-selected-folder-with-unseen-messages-face Renamed to `mh-speedbar-selected-folder-with-unseen-messages' per new Emacs conventions. ** Bug Fixes in MH-E 8.0 *** Face Variable Names Now Follow Current Conventions The -face suffix has been dropped from all face names. *** 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. *** 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). *** Completions Offered by mh-refile-message Are Not Sorted This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #698734). *** Add Message-ID to Outgoing Messages If you replied to a message in your `+outbox', an `In-Reply-To:' 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). *** Inconsistent 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 and are therefore now consistent throughout the application (closes SF #730470, SF #1275933). *** 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). *** Initialization Fails If ~/Mail Exists MH-E no longer calls `install-mh' so this issue has gone away (closes SF #835192). *** 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). *** RETURN Causes Infinite Loop in mh-letter This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #887346). *** 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). *** Missing Headers When Replying to All User needed to edit `replgroupcomps' (closes SF #918194). *** 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). *** Error Message When Trying to Send Using MH-E This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #1002103). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). *** ! Doesn't Do Regions Now it does (closes SF #1046330). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). *** Default Identity Prevents Insertion of Auto Fields Auto insertion of an identity now occurs even when the default identity is used (closes SF #1204506). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). *** "Args out of range" Error in Displaying Message This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #1227504). *** Front-and-back Truncation in mailto: Rendering This behavior is no longer observed (closes SF #1227510). *** 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). *** 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). *** 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). *** Can't Narrow to Subject with Regexp Chars The command `/ s' could not limit subjects that had special pick characters (such as [, *, $, .). This has been fixed (closes SF #1432548). *** `/ s' Can Miss the Original Mail The command `/ s' failed to include the message with the "Re:" in the Subject. This has been fixed (closes SF #1438369). *** mhparam -components Fails on mailutils This error prevented MH-E from loading when using GNU mailutils. GNU mailutils drops the `s' in this argument, so we did too since -component still works in nmh and MH (closes SF #1446985). *** `/ s' Still Has Problems With []'d Mail On XEmacs, subjects that had special characters would prevent `/ s' from narrowing to the given subject. These characters are now quoted correctly in XEmacs (closes SF #1447598). *** Variable mh-send-args Is a String, Not a List This was causing errors when sending under GNU mailutils. The internal variable `mh-send-args' is now a list which fixes the problem (closes SF #1448604). *** Update Icons Most of the tool bar icons have been replaced by GTK or GNOME 2 icons (closes SF #1452715). *** Strip Build Number From emacs-version in X-Mailer This has been done (closes SF #1466481). *** Rename Function and Variable Definers If you had ever shown help for an MH-E symbol that was both a function or variable, you might have found that the hyperlink to the file brought you to the wrong definition. This has been fixed by renaming the macros `mh-defgroup', `mh-defcustom', `mh-defface', `mh-defun-compat', and `mh-defmacro-compat' to `defgroup-mh', `defcustom-mh', `defface-mh', `defun-mh', `defmacro-mh' respectively (closes SF #1472029). *** mh-insert-letter Uses Wrong Default If you had used `C-c TAB' (`mh-insert-letter') to insert a letter into your draft, specified a different folder, and chose the default message number, you got the wrong message. This has been fixed (closes SF #1473729). * Changes in MH-E 7.4.4 Version 7.4.4 addresses programmatic issues from the FSF and prepares MH-E for inclusion into an impending GNU Emacs release (22.1). There 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 Version 7.4.3 fixes the problem where `mh-identity-list' was not getting 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 Version 7.4.1 fixes the Makefile so it no longer tries to compile mh-unit.el. * 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 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 *** Unified Function Arguments 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. *** MH-Index View of Unseen Messages 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). *** Spam Software Support 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' *** Relative Folder Specification @ Supported You can now use the relative folder marker @ in folder names (closes SF #666774). *** Marking Messages 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 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. *** Face Header Field Supported 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. *** X-Image-URL Support Images specified in X-Image-URL header fields are now supported. See the customization variable `mh-fetch-x-image-url' to enable this support. *** Fcc Completion Folders in Fcc fields in message drafts can now be completed with M-TAB. ** 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 Obsolete. This functionality is present `mh-tool-bar-folder-buttons'. ** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.3 *** Can't Refile Message 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 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 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 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 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.) - Smilies - Toolbar *** Indexed Folders Should Respect mh-show-threads-flag Indexed folders are now threaded if `mh-show-threads-flag' is non-nil (closes SF #709667). *** Threading Index View Loses Folder Info This has been fixed (closes SF #709672). *** No Undo Information When Re-editing Drafts Undo is turned on in the draft buffer when using "e (mh-edit-again)" (closes SF #712777). *** Forwarded base64-encoded Messages Are Incorrectly Displayed This has been fixed (closes SF #681518). *** Append to *MH-E Log* Buffer 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. *** mh-inc-folder Complains if No Mail and No Current Message 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). *** Folder Normalization Strips Leading Slash Leading "/" characters in folder names entered by the user were being lost. This has been fixed (closes SF #676890). *** Print Header Doesn't Show Message 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. *** Aliases Constantly Reloaded Empty lists are now handled properly (closes SF #693859). *** Remove RCS Keywords Removed RCS keywords per Emacs conventions (closes SF #680731). *** Replace Mimencode MH-E was enhanced to decode message based on charset and Content-Transfer-Encoding. This eliminates the need for the external program mimencode (closes SF #674857). * 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'. *** Logo Displayed on Mode Line ** New Variables in MH-E 7.2 The new variables have been discussed elsewhere. ** 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 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 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 #503727). 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): mv /usr/local/include/compface.h /usr/include/ *** 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). *** mh-next-undeleted-msg, mh-previous-undeleted-msg 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 #627015). Customization Variables (defcustom) Old Name New Name mh-auto-folder-collect mh-auto-folder-collect-flag mh-bury-show-buffer mh-bury-show-buffer-flag mh-clean-message-header mh-clean-message-header-flag mh-decode-quoted-printable mh-decode-quoted-printable-flag mh-delete-yanked-msg-window mh-delete-yanked-msg-window-flag mh-do-not-confirm mh-do-not-confirm-flag mh-highlight-citation-p mh-highlight-citation mh-insert-x-mailer-p mh-insert-x-mailer-flag mh-print-background mh-print-background-flag mh-recenter-summary-p mh-recenter-summary-flag mh-recursive-folders mh-recursive-folders-flag mh-reply-show-message-p mh-reply-show-message-flag mh-show-use-goto-addr mh-show-use-goto-addr-flag mh-update-sequences-after-mh-show mh-update-sequences-after-mh-show-flag Regular Variables (defvar) Old Name New Name mh-mhn-compose-insert-p mh-mhn-compose-insert-flag mh-nmh-p mh-nmh-flag mh-page-to-next-msg-p mh-page-to-next-msg-flag * Changes in mh-e 6.1 This is a minor release which includes a few bug fixes. The distribution now includes the ChangeLog. ** New Features in mh-e 6.1 *** Fontification Unseen messages now displayed in bold. *** Viewing folders and sequences The folder and sequence listings that "F l (mh-list-folders)" and "S l (mh-list-sequences)" create are now displayed in view mode. ** Bug Fixes in mh-e 6.1 *** 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). *** mh-insert-prefix-string Fixed to work under XEmacs. Thanks to Will Partain <partain at dcs.gla.ac.uk>. *** mh-quit mh-quit now cleans up the buffers named `mh-temp-buffer,' 'mh-temp-folders-buffer' and 'mh-temp-sequences-buffer.' * 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: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=13357 ** 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). The threading commands "T u (mh-next-unseen-subject-thread)", "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. *** 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 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. * 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 is mh-e.info. *** 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. *** The MH profile entry "Inbox:" is supported. *** 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 auto-saved and backed up correctly. *** `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 is signaled if the subprocess exits with a non-zero status. *** `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 *** `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, leading people to think they could use `add-hook' with it, when actually `setq' is the correct way. *** `mh-sortm-args': When this variable is used has changed. Now `mh-sortm-args' is passed if there IS a prefix argument to `mh-sort-folder'. The assumption is that for arguments you normally want, you would specify them in an MH profile entry. *** `mh-mhn-args': new hook, a list of additional arguments to pass to the `mhn' program if `mh-edit-mhn' is given a prefix argument. *** `mh-edit-mhn-hook': new hook called by `mh-edit-mhn', the function that formats MIME messages. *** `mh-folder-list-change-hook': new hook, called whenever the cached list of folders, `mh-folder-list', is changed. *** `mh-find-path-hook': new hook, called when entering mh-e. *** `mh-repl-formfile': new variable, used to change the format file used by `mh-reply' from the default of "replcomps". *** New variables to customize the scan format and notating: `mh-note-deleted', `mh-note-refiled', `mh-note-seq', `mh-note-cur', `mh-note-copied', `mh-note-printed'. ** Key Binding Changes in mh-e 5.0 *** `RET' runs `mh-show' for consistency with the Finder and Info. The old binding `.' still works, but `RET' is now the standard binding. *** `M-<' now runs `mh-first-msg' for consistency with `M->', which runs `mh-last-msg'. *** `C-c C-f C-d' in MH-Letter mode moves to a Dcc: header field. *** `C-c C-f C-r' in MH-Letter mode moves to a From: header field. *** `g' is now the standard binding for `mh-goto-msg'. The old binding `j' still works. ** 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. *** When prompting for a sequence name, if no sequences have been used yet, mh-e will offer the first sequence the current message is in. *** The patterns of more mailers are recognized by `mh-extract-rejected-mail'. *** `mh-insert-prefix-string' no longer wraps the call to the `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. *** `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 of supplying only the directory name. *** 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 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 better. *** Functions that are supposed to find fields in the message header no longer look in the message body. *** 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 Previous sequence. *** The variable `mh-inc-prog' is now correctly used in all places. *** `mh-pipe-msg' runs the process in the correct directory. *** A partially scanned folder will no longer lose the "/select" annotation when you execute marked deletes and refiles with `x'. * Changes to mh-e 4.0 This file is automatically generated from news-mh-e.txinfo. Do not edit. [MH-E-ONEWS has been incorporated here and removed. news-mh-e.txinfo is no longer available.] 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.
