2020-06-08 * Corrections to spelling errors, contributed by Jens Schleusener.Eduardo Chappa
2020-05-10 * Remove CC=cc from Makefiles under the imap/ directory. Also redefineEduardo Chappa
ARRC, as these are inherited from values set in the configure script, which in turn can be inherited from environment variables. This implies that to build c-client one needs to specify these variables, and since this is not being built as a stand-alone library anymore, we take these values from the configure script. Submitted by Robert Siebeck.
2020-05-09 * Several improvements to Alpine's support of XOAUTH2. In the case of Gmail,Eduardo Chappa
a text explaining the basic steps on how to configure fully Alpine with Gmail was added. In addition, some issues introduced while included OAUTHBEARER were also fixed.

2019-09-01 * Improvements to the pico manual as well as on the code that displaysEduardo Chappa
the table of color codes.
2019-06-22 * New version 2.21.99999 (06/22/2019)Eduardo Chappa
2018-06-26 * When a message is of type multipart/mixed, and its first part isEduardo Chappa
multipart/signed, Alpine will include the text of the original message in a reply message, instead of including a multipart attachment. Suggested by Barry Landy.
2018-06-17 * new version 2.21.9999Eduardo Chappa
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.
2017-12-04 * New version 2.21.99Eduardo Chappa
* The online repo does not mimic the root local directory from which it is created. This is an attempt to fix this. This caused the problem that kerberos was not working with the bytes on the repo, but it would work on the root which created it. Reported by Holger Trapp.
2017-12-02 * Update documentation to reflect that there was a change in theEduardo Chappa

2016-11-21 * SMIME: Change the default signature digest from sha1 to sha-256,Eduardo Chappa
since clients such as Thunderbird do not validate signatures that use sha1 digest.
2016-11-18 * Remove limit of encoded words in the c-client library, since anyEduardo Chappa
limit makes a search eventually fail for a long enough encoded word.
2016-10-22 * Color support for the default composer and Pico. If users haveEduardo Chappa
configured colors to read messages in Alpine, the same colors will be used in the default composer. In the case of Pico, read the manual to understand how to configure this new feature.
2016-10-08 * new version 2.20.17Eduardo Chappa
2016-09-19 * Alpine failed to read an encrypted password file if too manyEduardo Chappa
passwords have been saved in it.
2016-09-13 * New version 2.20.16Eduardo Chappa
* SMIME: Bouncing could sign (and therefore corrupt) a message when it is signed automatically. Reported by Björn Krellner.
2016-08-28 * New version 2.20.15.Eduardo Chappa
2016-08-09 * Compilation fails in Debian Hardening, due to a printf call that isEduardo Chappa
not correctly made. Reported and patched by Christian Kujau. Final patch uses fprintf instead of printf.

* Move manual pages to a "man1" directory.
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.
2015-05-17 * new version 2.20.9.Eduardo Chappa
2015-05-01 * new version 2.20.8.Eduardo Chappa
* Make sure titlebar (the line at the top of the screen) always contains the name of the folder/newsgroup that is open, if this fits in the title. * Fix a bug in the Windows version in which width of characters in the width ambiguous zone was computed incorrectly. Reported by Ulf-Dietrich Braumann.
2015-04-23 * new version 2.20.7.Eduardo Chappa
* Fix documentation for search to beginning and to end of line, which had not been updated, even though the behavior had changed. * Exact search is sticky, that is, once an exact search is done, so will be the next ones. This is consistent with the default behavior where all searches are not exact. * Pico upgraded to versio 5.08. * some hunks of integrate.patch were added to this source code to make handling of menus consistent, and reduce the size of integrate.patch at the same time.
2015-04-03 * new version 2.20.6Eduardo Chappa
* SMIME: Cancelling entering password to unlock key will not reprompt. * Creating repo at repo.or.cz
2015-03-31 * new version 2.20.5Eduardo Chappa
* SMIME: Crash when a certificate has an invalid date of validity. Also Alpine will use the function ASN1_TIME_print to determine the date of validity. Reported by Ben Stienstra. * SMIME: Crash when atempting to unlock the password file and an incorrect password is entered. * Alpine version 2.20.4 would not build in Windows, due to a missing #ifdef SMIME directive in file alpine/mailpart.c. Reported by Ulf-Dietrich Braunmann. * Pico: Code reorganization in the search command to make it easier to add subcommands of the search command. * Pico: Search command can do a case sensitive match. Use the Ctrl-^ subcommand of the search command to bring this choice into view. * For a multipart/alternative message, the Take Address command will work on the part that is being read.
2015-03-25 * new version 2.20.4Eduardo Chappa
* If the charset of a message can not be determined, use the value set in the "Unknown Character Set" option. * Resizing setup screen will redraw screen. * Unix Alpine only. Experimental: If Alpine/Pico finds a UCS4 code in the width ambiguous zone, it will use other means to determine the width, such as call wcwidth.
2015-03-15 * new version 2.20.3Eduardo Chappa
* SMIME: If a message contains a RFC822 atachment that is signed/decrypted add the ability to view its SMIME information. * SMIME: The ^E command that gives information on the certificate is only available for messages that have a signed or encrypted part. * Fix vulnerability in regex library. This only affects those who use this library, such as the windows version of Alpine. See http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/695940. * HTML: Add support for decoding entities in hexadecimal notation. Suggested by Tulipánt Gergely. * Pico: Add the ability to search for strings in the beginning or end of a line. In the search menu, pressing Ctrl-^ toggles the prompt to search for a string at the beginning of a line. Another press of Ctrl-^ toggles the prompt to search for a string at the end of a line, and pressing Ctrl-^ one more time searches for the string anywhere in the text.
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.
2014-05-31 * new version 2.19.9991Eduardo Chappa
* S/MIME Alpine would compute incorrectly the signature of a message that contains 8bit if the option "Enable 8bit ESMTP Negotiation" is enabled, the message contains 8bit characters and the smtp server supports 8bit sending. * Crash while redrawing S/MIME configuration screen when importing a certificate * When forwarding a message before opening it, the message might not be found. The problem is in the forward_body function, where the section of the body is not correctly set in all instances. * When forwarding a signed message Alpine might forward the message as a multipart message, instead of just selecting the body of the message. Change to forward the signed part only. This aligns Alpine with what it does when it replies to a similar message.
