+ * 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).
