-* Changes in MH-E 7.82
-
-Version 7.81 continues to address the saga surrounding the use of CL
-macros in CVS Emacs and fixes the auto-detection of vanilla MH (SF
-#1014781).
-
-* Changes in MH-E 7.81
-
-Version 7.81 fixes a `wrong-type-argument' argument error that
-sometimes occurred when processing the Message-ID, adds the ";
-(mh-toggle-mh-decode-mime-flag)" command, and uses ":default" instead
-of "default" in `mh-identity-handlers' to avoid problems with
-"Default:" as a user defined field. If you have modified
-`mh-identity-handlers' in your .emacs, you'll need to rename "default"
-to ":default". This release also corrects the release numbering; the
-previous version number was intended to be 7.80.
-
-* Changes in MH-E 7.4.80
-
-Version 7.4.80 now supports GNU mailutils, S/MIME, picons,
-which-func-mode, has an improved interface for hiding header fields,
-improves upon the MH variant detection, and contains many bug fixes.
-Those of you familiar with the GNU version numbering schemes will
-recognize this as an alpha release. This does not reflect on the
-quality of this release which is as high as it has always been.
-Although we are not ready to release 8.0, we want you to have access
-to the work that has been hiding in CVS. At the same time we want to
-make it clear that there are incompatible changes with previous
-versions.
-
-We are planning to release the long-awaited manual update synchronized
-with version 8.0. We are using documentation from the manual in the
-docstrings which is hoped to make "C-h f (describe-function)" really
-useful and create a seamless experience when switching back and forth
-between the manual and the docstrings. This has been done in about
-half of the variables and functions in this version.
-
-The writing of the manual has revealed a few inconsistencies in the
-software whose fixes have resulted in incompatible changes, and there
-may well be more. So, unlike version 7 which was chock full of new
-features, version 8's strengths will include complete documentation
-and higher quality.
-
-** New Features in MH-E 7.4.80
+* 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:

+
+** New Features in MH-E 8.0
*** GNU mailutils Support
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. [NOTE: need to make mh-picon-directory-list an option
-and add xfaces facedb documentation to it.]
+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.

+
+*** 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.
-*** X-Image-URL Updates
+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.

+`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.

+*** 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.
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).
-*** Catchup Command
-
-There is a new "F c (mh-catchup)" command that marks all unread
-messages in the current folder as read.
-
-*** Change Content-Type Renderer on the Fly in MH-Show Buffer
+*** Updates to Speedbar
-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).
+The speedbar now renders the folders with unseen messages in boldface
+which makes them easier to identify (closes SF #623369).
-*** Use which-func-mode to Display Folder in Index Mode
+*** Updates to mh-msg-is-in-seq
-Turning on `which-func-mode' displays the folder name of the message
-under the cursor in index folders (closes SF #855520).
+Can now specify an alternate message number to `S s'
+(`mh-msg-is-in-seq') with a prefix argument.
-*** Render Signature and vCard in Italics
+*** Updates to mh-to-field-choices
-This has been implemented. Use `mh-show-signature-face' to customize
-the face used (closes SF #802722).
+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).
-*** New Print Map
+*** Change Content-Type Renderer on the Fly in MH-Show Buffer
-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". Other new
-functions in this keymap include:
+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).

- P l mh-print-msg
- P p mh-ps-print-msg
- P s mh-ps-print-msg-show
+*** MH-E No Longer Calls install-mh
-*** Draft Buffer Keymap Changes
+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.
-The keymap in the draft buffer has been modified slightly. The old
-anonymous ftp and tar composition commands have been reinstated and
-letter signing and encrypting keymaps have been added.
+*** Add :package-version Keyword to Options
-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.
+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).

-*** Speedbar: Highlight Folders With Unseen
+*** Render Signature and vCard in Italics

+This has been implemented. Use `mh-show-signature-face' to customize
+the face used (closes SF #802722).
-*** Quick Key Help
+*** Derive mh-letter-mode from mail-mode
-The "? (mh-help)" function now displays the help in its own buffer
-called *MH-E Help* (closes SF #493740 and SF #656631).
+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).
-*** New Startup File mh-e-autoloads.el
+*** Remove Emacs 20 Support
-If you are installing MH-E yourself, then you can replace any
-autoloads you may have with "(require 'mh-e-autoloads.el)". See the
-README for details.
+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).
-*** mh-msg-is-in-seq Update
+*** Use run-hook-with-args
-Can now specify an alternate message number to "S s
-(mh-msg-is-in-seq)" with a prefix argument.
+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 7.4.80
+\f
-Variables that have been added to MH-E that have not been discussed
-elsewhere are listed here.
+** New Variables in MH-E 8.0
-*** mail-citation-hook
+*** mh-after-commands-processed-hook
-Hook for modifying a citation just inserted in the mail buffer.
+Hook run by `x' (`mh-execute-commands') after performing outstanding
+refile and delete requests.
*** mh-alias-reloaded-hook
*** mh-auto-fields-prompt-flag
-Non-nil means to prompt before sending if fields in
-`mh-auto-fields-list' are inserted.
+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'.
+Function to select a default folder for refiling or `Fcc:'.
*** mh-forward-hook
-Invoked on the forwarded letter by "f (mh-forward)".
+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
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
-Non-nil means a signature separator should be inserted. It is not
+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
rewritten and it is very likely that you no longer to set them and
their setting may confuse other MH-E settings.
-** Variables Deleted in MH-E

+\f
+
+** 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)
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
-Prompt formats are now consistent throughout the application (closes
-SF #730470).
+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
has been fixed so that the user name that is flashed is the same as
the name that is sent (closes SF #772595).
-*** Args out of range
-
-In rare and non-reproducible circumstances, compilation sometimes
-threw an "Args out of range" error. Nonetheless, this has been fixed
-(closes SF #806577).
+*** Initialization Fails If ~/Mail Exists
-*** mh-forward hard-codes '-mime' Switch on nmh
-
-Added new option `mh-compose-forward-as-mime-flag' that controls whether
-messages are forwarded as MIME attachments (closes SF #827203).
+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
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).
+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).
+-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).
