2016-10-08 * new version 2.20.17Eduardo Chappa
2016-10-08 * Some code clean up before releasing the next alpha version.Eduardo Chappa
2016-10-05 * Add return codes to setup_pwdcert function, so that caller can knowEduardo Chappa
what happened and decide accordingly. Fixes the fact that Alpine will fail to create self signed certificate, when the .pwd directory does not exist.
2016-10-05 * When Alpine is compiled with password file and SMIME supportEduardo Chappa
the password file is encrypted using a private key/public certificate pair. If one such pair cannot be found, one will be created.
2016-09-29 * Alpine will include attachments when forwarding someEduardo Chappa
multipart/alternative messages for which it did not use to include attachments.
2016-09-28 * S/MIME: If the option "Remember S/MIME Passphrase" is disabled, thenEduardo Chappa
entering a password to read an encrypted message will make Alpine forget the key and not ask the password to unlock it again in case it is necessary to unlock it again. Reported by Ulf-Dietrich Braumann.
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.
2016-09-08 * Update to documentation to include that we support OpenSSL 1.1.0Eduardo Chappa
as well as Libressl.
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.
2016-08-29 * Bug: When implementing the alternate-reply-menu, some of the codeEduardo Chappa
got moved to the beginning of the reply_text_query function, which made the function return before it initialized some variables, which were therefore initialized to default values, and not the values configured by the user. This made, for example, make Alpine place the signature at the top of a message, regardless of what the user had configured. Reported by Andreas Schamanek.
2016-08-28 * New version 2.20.15.Eduardo Chappa
2016-08-27 * The bounce command adds a subcommand to choose a role.Eduardo Chappa
2016-08-27 * New configuration option Alternate Reply Menu which adds more waysEduardo Chappa
to control features and variables when you start to reply to a message.
2016-08-26 * Add improvements to the Solaris port to find openssl files and compileEduardo Chappa
without problems.
2016-08-12 * Set no restrictions on the length of encoded subjects, but encodeEduardo Chappa
words in length of no more than 75 characters.
2016-08-11 * Protect all calls to mail_elt in pith/ and alpine/ code. Protect meansEduardo Chappa
to check for correct range of message number before calling mail_elt. * Work in progress: correct some uses of system calls that do not check for returned value. This work will follow the lead given by Christian Kujau and Asheesh Laroia. Expect more changes of this type in subsequent commits.
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.
2016-07-31 * The "#" command, when used as part of an aggregate operation willEduardo Chappa
allow users to select the role used in either replying, forwarding or replying to the group of selected messages, Suggested by Hisashi T Fujinaka.
2016-07-31 * When Alpine opens an attachment, it sometimes changes the extensionEduardo Chappa
of the file that is being opened and replaces it by another for the same mime type. If Alpine finds that the extension of the file corresponds with the mime type, according to the mime-types file, then it will keep it, and no substitution will be made.
2016-07-28 * Bug: Alpine would use freed memory while trying to compute the colorEduardo Chappa
of the titlebar. This happened when trying to continue a postponed message. Alpine would call the format_titlebar function, which would attempt to use the msgmap of the freed stream of the postponed messages folder. The solution was to not to call the format_titlebar function, because all that is needed is the color of the titlebar, and that can be obtained in a different way.
2016-07-23 * various updates to documentation.Eduardo Chappa
2016-07-22 * Re-add _BSD_SOURCE, which is deprecated by gcc6. It will be fixedEduardo Chappa
later when it becomes an issue again. * Minor fix to documentation.
2016-07-13 * Add the ability to select messages by number and thread-number byEduardo Chappa
using '.' character to represent the current message/thread, and "$" to represent the last message/thread.
2016-07-13 * Bug: when moving to use realpath to resolve symbolic links, .pinercEduardo Chappa
file would not be created if it did not exist.
2016-06-17 * Work in progress: Alpine calls non-safe functions while handling aEduardo Chappa
signal. An attempt is being made to correct this in the future. See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=825772.
2016-06-15 * When messages are selected, warn the user if a message that is notEduardo Chappa
selected will be bounced, or if not all selected messages will be bounced. Suggested by Ulf-Dietrich Braumann.
2016-05-29 * The TAB key allows autocomplete in the Fcc field in the composer headers,Eduardo Chappa
as well as autocompletes automatically when only one possibility exists for the ^J attach command.
2016-05-12 * When a filename is attached and its name is encoded, the save attachmentEduardo Chappa
command will offer to save the file in the encoded form. This might work for some users, but the save command will have a subcommand ^N to decode the file name and save the file with the decoded name.
2016-05-12 * Minor fix to documentation.Eduardo Chappa
* Add the configuration variable "default-directories", which is called "Extra Directories for Save" in the configuration screen. This variable saves a list of directories that are readily accessible for save or export of attachments. This makes it easier to save attachments in directories that are hard to navigate to, or that are accessed frequently.
2016-03-28 * When a message is saved in the Form Letter folder, add the abilityEduardo Chappa
to save the role being used to compose such message so that settings such as the SMTP server set in the role can be used when sending such form message. Suggested and patched by Frank Doepper.
2016-03-27 * Unix-Alpine: Connect securely to a LDAP server on a secure port.Eduardo Chappa
Based on a contribution by Wang Kang.
2016-03-26 * When exporting all parts of a message, if two attachments have theEduardo Chappa
same name, do not overwrite a file more than once, but instead add a counter number to the filename to make a new file that does not exist in the file system.
2016-03-25 * Small fix to SETUP DIRECTORY SERVERS screen, where Alpine would printEduardo Chappa
only a small portion of the subtitle (e.g. "Directo" instead of "Directory Server on some.server.com".)
2016-03-21 * Fix a bug that makes Alpine not wrap lines correctly in HTML messagesEduardo Chappa
when the position for wrapping is at a wide UTF-8 code point.
2016-03-19 * Bug: Crash when attempting to read a message after a bounce command.Eduardo Chappa
In order to produce a crash one needed to use the ^T subcommand and do a search in a LDAP directory. The crash is produced by changes to the text in the title bar. Reported by Heinrich Mislik in the Alpine-info list. * Add ignore size option to Alpine, which helps users deal with some servers that compute sizes incorrectly but send complete messages when users save messages from those servers.
2016-02-28 * Add the ability to change the private key and certificates usedEduardo Chappa
to encrypt a password file in the SMIME setup configuration screen.
2016-02-05 * Added corrections to the Release Notes (several misspellings.)Eduardo Chappa
Provided by Dennis Davis.
2016-02-02 * New version 2.20.11Eduardo Chappa
* Update of copyright notice * Update to release notes to indicate support of RFC 2971.
2015-12-14 * S/MIME: When reading a local certificate, Alpine converts the name ofEduardo Chappa
the certificate to lowercase, which may make Alpine not be able to read such certificate. Reported by Dennis Davis.
2015-12-07 * Several changes so that Alpine will build in Windows (changeEduardo Chappa
ldap_unbind_ext to ldap_unbind and add config.wnt.h to git repository)
2015-12-05 * When the index is zoomed, broadening the search will redraw theEduardo Chappa
screen to account for the broadened search, but will not replaint the screen due to scrolling. Suggested by Holger Trapp.
2015-12-05 * Alpine will ask users if they wish to save S/MIME certificates includedEduardo Chappa
in signatures, when the option "Validate Using Certificate Store Only" is enabled. If the user does not wish to save it, validation will fail.
2015-11-18 * New version 2.20.10.Eduardo Chappa
* Fix typos in documentation (cotainer to container.) Reported by Holger Trapp. * Alpine does not remove remporary files created when adding a CA certificate to a container. Reported by Holger Trapp.
2015-11-15 * New version 2.20.10Eduardo Chappa
2015-11-15 * PC-Alpine: New configuration option "Aspell Dictionaries" allows aEduardo Chappa
user to choose the dictionary used to spell, in case the user communicates in more than one language. Examples of values for the variable are "en_US" or "de_DE", etc. Only the first 10 dictionaries are offered.
2015-11-07 * Elements of the FILE structure were used in the Windows port to saveEduardo Chappa
information about the use of a file, but the contents of that structure changed in Visual Studio 2015, so a new system had to be created to save this information, that did not depend on the contents of the FILE structure.
2015-10-24 * Crash when opening an attachment in Mac OS X 10.11.1. Reported byEduardo Chappa
Peter Koellner.
2015-10-23 * Crash in Pico when forwarding messages that contain a direction markEduardo Chappa
at the end of a line. Reported by James Mingo.
2015-09-22 * SMIME: Turn off automatic signing and encrypting of a message whenEduardo Chappa
bouncing. Suggested after a discussion with Matthias Rieber.
