2020-07-18 * Addition of the variables User Certs Dir and User Certs File, which allowEduardo Chappa
a user to specify the location of server certificates that the user trusts.
2020-07-04 * When building Alpine, the option --disable-debug will only affect ifEduardo Chappa
its binary is compiled with debug, and not the ability of alpine to generate internal debug. Alpine will not write debug files unless started with the option -d, so for example "alpine -d 2" will generate a debug file at level 2, but just issuing the alpine command will not write any debug to a file.
2020-06-28 * Alpine links with tcl, even if WebAlpine is not built. The solutionEduardo Chappa
was to test for header files before we test for library files. If the former do not exists, we do not test for the latter.
2020-06-08 * Corrections to spelling errors, contributed by Jens Schleusener.Eduardo Chappa
2020-06-07 * Experimental: Alpine can pass an HTML message to an external web ↵Eduardo Chappa
browser, by using the "External" command in the ATTACHMENT INDEX screen. * Experimental: New configuration variable "External Command Loads Inline Images Only" that controls if Alpine will pass to an external browser a link to all the images in the HTML message, or will only pass a link to inline images included in the message. For your privacy and security this feature is enabled by default.
2020-04-11 * Remove sleep of 5 seconds for mailcap programs that use the terminalEduardo Chappa
to display content. Suggested by Carl Edquist. In addition to remove configurable process table command and it corresponding sleep time.
2020-03-26 * Modification to configure script to add support for *-linux* hosts,Eduardo Chappa
instead of *-linux-gnu* hosts.
2020-01-30 * Add file cert.pem to the list of containers of CA certificates.Eduardo Chappa
2020-01-29 * Remove default value for system-certs-path.Eduardo Chappa
2020-01-25 * New variable system-certs-path that allows users to indicate theEduardo Chappa
location of the directory where folders are located. In PC-Alpine this must be C:\libressl\ssl\certs. The C: drive can be replaced by the name of the drive where the binary and DLL files are located.
2020-01-19 * Initial release of Alpine version 2.22.Eduardo Chappa
2020-01-07 * Do not add -lcrypt to LIBS when it is not required. Reported by RyanEduardo Chappa
Elliot.
2019-12-19 * Update to configure script to work with LibreSSL. Reported by Michael.Eduardo Chappa
2019-11-25 * Add lnpno port to imap/src/osdep/unix/Makefile to account for ports that doEduardo Chappa
not need/want to build using pam. Add more robustness to the configure process, to add -lcrypt to the build flags when --with-bundled-tools=no is given.
2019-11-23 * Change in build process. Now Alpine will not build the imap tools byEduardo Chappa
default. In order to build the imap tools (such as mtest, imapd, etc.) the configure script must be given the --with-bundled-tools option. Similarly, libpam is not required anymore, unless the option --with-bundled-tools is used.
2019-06-22 * New version 2.21.99999 (06/22/2019)Eduardo Chappa
2019-05-25 * Modified test for LibreSSL, since OpenSSL next version will beEduardo Chappa
version 3.0.
2019-04-28 * Compilation failure in Solaris when ldap is enabled. Reported byEduardo Chappa
"mechanic" in comp.mail.pine. * Configure script modifications to set the ldap-dir value correctly. * Fix some typos in documentation.
2019-02-17 * Rewrite support for specific SSL encryption protocols, includingEduardo Chappa
a. Add a new variable: encryption-protocol-range, which can be used to specify the minimum and maximum versions of the TLS protocol that Alpine will attempt to use to encrypt its communication with the server. b. Add support for the Server Name Identification (SNI) extension needed for TLSv1.3. c. Remove the DTLS code. It was not being used.
2019-01-26 * Add --with-tcl-lib-dir=PATH option to the configure script, inEduardo Chappa
case the TCL libraries are not located in a standard path. Also add ca-root-nss.crt to the list of bundles to test for existence of certificates. Based on a report in comp.mail.pine by Roderick.
2018-09-29 * Add the /tls1_3 modifier to establish connections use the TLS protocolEduardo Chappa
version 1.3.
2018-08-29 * Reverse a change where tcl what taken out of the build, preventingEduardo Chappa
webalpine to be built.
2018-07-06 * Update configure script to remove the search for a linking tclEduardo Chappa
library until the development header have been found, and update C_CLIENT_AUTHS to not to have a trailing space.
2018-04-27 * Add test for ca-bundle.crt for systems that provide it.Eduardo Chappa
* Add %libresslflags% to the set of extracflagsnq in the kerberos build of PC-Alpine. This adds S/MIME support to that build. Fixed by Ulf-Dietrich Braumann.
2018-02-26 * New version 2.21.999Eduardo Chappa
* rewrite of some code in pith/ical.c to make sure function prototypes are correct. * Add a separator line to the calendar entry in case, the calendar is sent as the main body of the message.
2017-12-02 * Add /usr/local to add automatic support for ldap in Freebsd,Eduardo Chappa
in case the user has ldap installed.
2017-11-21 * Completed the inclusion of the "95" patch submitted by Helmut Grohne.Eduardo Chappa
See Bug 876164 in Debian at https://bugs.debian.org/876164. Added m4/m4_ax_prog_cc_for_build.m4 macro.
2017-11-21 * Add --with-date-stamp and --with-host-stamp to modify the datestamp[]Eduardo Chappa
and hoststamp[] default variables when building Alpine.
2017-11-19 * Improvements to the configure stage of compilation. Some ofEduardo Chappa
these contributed by Helmut Grohne. See Bug 876164 in Debian at https://bugs.debian.org/876164.
2017-11-13 * TLS 1.2 works does not work if Alpine is compiled with openssl >= 1.1.0.Eduardo Chappa
Reported and patched by Kyle George.
2017-09-29 * NTLM authentication support with the ntlm library, in Unix systems.Eduardo Chappa
Based on code provided by Maciej W. Rozycki.
2017-03-17 * New version 2.21Eduardo Chappa
2016-12-27 * crypto.h is installed in /usr/include in cygwin, but everyone elseEduardo Chappa
installs it in /usr/include/openssl. Also other systems seem to install crypto.h when they install openssl, so we only check for the existence of crypto.h in Cygwin.
2016-12-09 * Add location of openssl libraries, include files, etc for openssl inEduardo Chappa
manjaro Linux.
2016-12-02 * In Cygwin, installing Openssl does not install libcrypto-devel, so weEduardo Chappa
add a check for crypt.h to the configure script to check that this file is properly installed.
2016-09-03 * Alpine does not build with openssl 1.1.0, so this update fixes that.Eduardo Chappa
Users have the option to build with older versions of OpenSSL or with version 1.1.0. The current code is transitional and it is intended that we will move Alpine to build exclusively with version 1.1.0 or above in the future. This update also recognizes if we are using LibreSSL. It was tested with version 2.4.2.
2016-08-26 * Add improvements to the Solaris port to find openssl files and compileEduardo Chappa
without problems.
2016-02-02 * New version 2.20.11Eduardo Chappa
* Update of copyright notice * Update to release notes to indicate support of RFC 2971.
2015-07-26 * several changes to reduce warnings, including adding sys/ioctl.hEduardo Chappa
in system.h.
2015-07-26 * Fix compilation error in arg.c when pwdcertdir was being freed, evenEduardo Chappa
though a password file might have not been defined. * Work on reducing the number of warnings in OSX.
2015-07-24 * new version 2.20.9.Eduardo Chappa
* Add command line argument -smimedir, which allows to specify the default path for a directory that contains the public, private, and ca directories. This is useful in case a user has a backup of old certificates that cannot be installed in the ~/.alpine-smime dir. * Update to alpine man page to include documentation on missing command line options such as -nowrite_password_cache, -passfile, -pwdcertdir, and -smimedir. * Various changes in the code to quell some compiler issued warnings in Mac OSX. Reported by Joe St Sauver. This includes the removing deprecated ldap functions from the code and the test in the configure script. The switch to not deprecated functions is done by the use of the belvar structure, which is not completely appropriate for what we are doing, but it is sufficient for our needs. The berval structure is more appropriate for binary data, but it works well with string data, which is what we need. * Various changes in the code to quell some warnings issued by clang 3.5.
2015-02-28 * new version 2.20.2Eduardo Chappa
* Further enhancement to the configure script in finding the location of the SSL include and library files, when they are installed in th e default location by openssl. * When Alpine sends an attachment, it will set the boundary attribute in lower case, as some SMTP servers, such as those of libero.it reject messages if the boundary attribute is in uppercase. * Alpine fails to remove temporary files used during a display or sending filter. Fix contributed by Phil Brooke. * SMIME: Crash when checking the signature of a message that contains a RFC822 attached message. Reported by Holger Trapp and Bjorn Krellner.
2015-01-25 * new version 2.20.1Eduardo Chappa
* Ignore message from smtp server after a successful authentication challenge. * Alpine would not set include and lib paths for OpenSSL if this was installed in /usr/local/ssl. * If the .pinerc file is a symbolic link, Alpine might not write its contents when saving its configuration. * The _INIT_ token does not skip over non-alpha numeric characters in the name. Reported by Andreas Fehr. * If SSLDIR is defined somehow, do not disable S/MIME if the SSLCERTSDIR is not found. * Mismatch in size of UCS and CELL caused a corruption in the content of a pointer, which made the speller in PC-Alpine get the content of a word incorrectly. * Update splash screen to version 2.20 in main repository. * Skip testing openssl compatibility version when cross-compilation is detected. Fix contributed by Antti Seppälä.
2015-01-07 * new version 2.19.9999Eduardo Chappa
* crash on importing certificates that do not have an email address associated to them, such as those of a Certificate Authority. * Disable saving new passwords to the password file. Implemented by Louis Raphael from dpslabs.com. * Panda IMAP does not decode correctly Korean text encoded in UTF-8. Reported by Chulho Yang.
2014-12-07 * new version 2.19.9993Eduardo Chappa
* Aggregate operations allows bouncing a list of messages using a role. Suggested by Ulf-Dietrich Braumann. * Compilation error of module pith/reply.c if SMIME is not defined (as in Windows Alpine). There was a misplaced parenthesis. * Update to S/MIME to explain how to use a PKCS12 certificate in Alpine. * Fix error in compare_certs function, that would modify the name of the certificates after sorting them, and return when no certificates are given. * When replying to several messages, subject will be decoded first, and then stripped from re/fwd before they are compared to determine the subject of the replied message. * Add $(LIBINTL) to the flags to link rpdump, rpload, alpined and alpineldap because MAC OSX 10.8 x86_64 needs it. * When the download of an attachment is interrumpted, Alpine stills caches what was downloaded, making the download incomplete for subsequent calls of Alpine attempting to open the attachment. In the future, Alpine will not cache any downloaded part of the attachment when it is interrupted.
2014-06-20 * new version 2.19.9992Eduardo Chappa
* Alpine would not parse options from the command line, such as -patterns-filters2, correctly. * Add /usr/local/include as a path to find include and libs files for openssl in FreeBSD. * Management certificate screen now prints, in addition to the e-mail address of the owner of the certificates, the dates of validity and the MD5 hash of such certificates. * crash when processing message/rfc822 attachments that are encoded in base64. * Openssl: if /usr/local/ssl exists, assume that this is the intended place where ssl libraries, include files and certificates are located. Typically, distributions do not use this directory, so its existence indicates that Openssl has been specially installed there, so it is probably a preferred place to get the system Openssl files. * Postponed messages whose content-type is text/html, text/enriched and text/richtext are sent with that content-type, even though, after resuming composition, Alpine had changed its type to text/plain. * HTML: <BR>, <BR />, and <BR/&> are considered the same inline tag; the same is valid for the <HR> tag.
2014-05-17 * New version 2.19.999Eduardo Chappa
* Introduce the option "Validate Using Certificate Store Only", and make it the default. This will make Alpine check for the validity of signatures in certificates that a user has installed in their system, and not in the certificates that come with the message. A user can override this, although is not recommended, by disabling this feature. * When viewing a signed message, the ^E command would present an empty screen or Alpine would crash because when Alpine would get the PKCS7 body of the message from body->sparep, it would not decode it properly due to the new way in which the sparep pointer is encoded that was introduced in version 2.19.991. * When a signed message is forwarded, the message might not be filtered correctly, and mime information might make it into the body of the forwarded message. In order to produce this, the message must be forwarded from the index screen and not be opened. The reason why this makes a difference is because opening a signed message changes its body structure. The reason why a person could forward a message before reading it is because the person could already be aware of the content of the message (e.g. the message is in the sent-mail folder). * When a message fails to validate and the body is saved from the server for validation, be careful in the way that body part pointers are set, in order to do this we split the mail_body function into two parts, one that gets the body, the other that gets the section of the body. The new function that gets the section of the body (mail_body_section), is used to assign pointers of the reconstructed new body. * When a container has not been defined, transferring messages to a container will succeed, and the name of the container will be written on screen. * When Alpine is receiving the envelopes from an imap server, it attempts to generate the index line immediately; while doing so it might need to compute a score, and for this, it might need to go back and do some operation in the same imap server. In this case, Alpine will crash with a "lock when already locked" message. In order to avoid this crash, a new check in match_pattern was added to Alpine to avoid the second trip to a server that is busy sending us envelopes. Reported by Peter Koellner. * Update copyright notice in mswin.rc and pmapi.rc, as well as first time user notice and special request notice. * Alpine cannot handle correctly some characters in the Windows-1256 character set, which might lead to a crash or a corruption in the screen. Work was done to contain the bug. A more complete fix will be done in a future release. Reported by Professor Robert Funnell. * Decode the name of attachment names, so they can be written as part of the description of the part. * When transferring certificates to a local container, create container with default names PublicContainer, PrivateContainer and CAContainer, as appropriate for these files, unless the user has provided some other names.
2014-04-09 * Update to version 2.19.11Eduardo Chappa
2014-04-08 * Fixes bug in 2.19.8 that would make Alpine fail to build in Windows.Eduardo Chappa
* 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.
2014-02-15 * Fixes to documentation to update old washington.edu/alpine siteEduardo Chappa
for patches.freeiz.com/alpine/. Work in progress. * prototype function tigetstr in pico/osdep/terminal.c * folders encoded in modified utf7 are transformed their names to a human readable utf8. * New attempt to fix smime support in Alpine. Messages sent by alpine with or without attachments should validate in all servers and in all folder formats.
