* Fixes bug in 2.19.8 that would make Alpine fail to build in Windows.
* S/MIME configuration screen would deinitialize smime, not allowing
it to send encrypted or signed messages.
* Add documentation for /loser option in definition of external servers.
* crashing bug in certificate management screen due to a BIO_free() call
of memory that had not been allocated.
* When the password file is decrypted, smime is inited. If smime is inited
before the .pinerc is read, some values might not be correctly set.
* When a password file exists, and S/MIME is enabled, encrypt it by either
using an existing key/certificate pair. The key is saved separately
in ~/.alpine-smime/.pwd, or in the directory specified by the
-pwdcertdir command line option.
