Log Message:
Update of mail/nail to version 11.0
Changes:
[11.0] released 7/30/04
* IMAP support has been added. It should considered to be in beta state
now, but should not have any disturbing effects on other code unless
it is actually used. (So the version jump does not require vendors to
continue to ship older releases.)
To get started with IMAP, see the manual page for the 'account',
'folder', and 'imap' commands, and for the 'folder' variable, as
well as the EXAMPLES and NOTES sections.
* Support for SMTP AUTH LOGIN was added (contributed by John Fawcett).
* It is now possible to encrypt SMTP with SSL/TLS, using the STARTTLS
method as well as with the SMTPS variant.
* New 'account' command to set groups of variables.
* Line and column limits (used e.g. for the header summary) are updated
when the size of the terminal is changed (handling SIGWINCH).
* If saving an outgoing message to the folder given in the 'record'
variable fails, the message is not sent but put in 'dead.letter'
instead. This rarely happens with local record folders, but is of
concern if 'record' refers to an IMAP mailbox.
* For addresses specified with the ~b, ~c, ~h, and ~t tilde escapes
or by the 'editheaders' method, if a comma, parenthesis, angle bracket,
or quoting character appears, only the comma is accepted as an address
separator. Otherwise, whitespace separates addresses as elsewhere. This
allows the insertion of comments in recipient addresses and more closely
matches the behavior of System V mailx. (Thanks to Ryan Lovett and Hilko
Bengen.)
* An internal version of getopt() is now used to properly work around
system defects such as the option reordering on GNU libc based
systems. If you really prefer the libc version, remove getopt.o from
the list of objects in the Makefile. (Note that nail already worked
around the glibc problem, so unless _your_ patches changed its
behavior, use the new internal getopt() to remain compatible.)
* The undocumented facility to pass sendmail options on the command
line of nail has been removed because it was not compatible with
POSIX and System V. If you need to pass options to sendmail, create
a shell script which invokes it appropriately and let the nail
variable 'sendmail' point to its location.
* Fixed the text of some usage messages (thanks to Christian Reiber).
