ANN: GNUMail.app 0.9.0 / Pantomime 0.8.0

[Ludovic Marcotte]

Hi,

I'm glad to announce the release of GNUMail.app 0.9.0 and
Pantomime 0.8.0.

Here's what's new in GNUMail.app 0.9.0 since the last release:

o Added Henry Spencer's regular expression library to the project ;
o Added Filters support. You can now set a set of filters to perform
  the following actions:
  - change the color of a message ;
  - move the message to a specified folder ;
  - delete the message.
  Filters also support constraints based on regex. Currently, the
  2nd and 3rd actions are done only when fetching messages from a 
  POP3 server. Future releases will add support from the mail spool file
  and from IMAP folders. The coloring action works for everything ;
o Added regex support in the Find panel. You can now search in your
  messages by specifying a regular expression as a find constraint ;
o You can now specify a line-length limit in the Quoting section of the
  preferences panel for text/plain parts when your messages are sent ;
o Added new NIBs for the MacOS-X port ;
o Refactored some classes, fixed memory leaks, bugs and optimized
  the overall application.

New screenshots are available on the website.

Here's what's new in Pantomime 0.8.0 since the last release:

o Fixed a bug in the way it was choosing a charset when
  sending a message that was qp-encoded ;
o Better mime/multipart support. It now works better with
  malformed messages ;
o Now supports message/rfc822 as the primary Content-Type
  of a message ;
o Implemented soft-line folding support for qp-encoded messages 
  (when sending the messages) ;
o Implemented line wrapping support for text/plain body parts ;
o Refactored some classes, fixed memory leaks, bugs and optimized
  the overall library.

You also need to use the CVS version of GNUstep in order
to use GNUMail.app. You can get it by following those
instructions:

http://www.gnustep.net/Documentation/BuildGuide/develop.html

I tested everything with a CVS version of GNUstep (13/12/2001),
and everything works very well. The MacOS-X port has been 
tested on OS-X 10.1.1 and it works well too.

A binary release should be available for MacOS-X in the following
days. Check the website of GNUMail.app for updates.

I would like to thank the following people who helped me
getting this release done by sending me patches, suggestions,
bug reports and more: Andrew Ruder, Martin Brecher, Erik Dalen,
Francis Lachapelle, Frederico S. Munoz, Stephane Peron, 
Vincent Ricard and Nicolas Roard.

Again, patches, suggestions, feature requests are all welcomed.

Thanks a lot for everything,

                Ludovic
