- POPmail 2.09 Features
- ---------------------
- 1. Now able to support multiple settings files without needing multiple copies
- of POPMail.
-
- 2. If someone is unkind enough to send a partial binhex enclosure it will first
- try to decode the enclosure. If it finds that it has received all of the
- message and can not finish decoding because it is incomplete, it does the
- following. It will fetch the message again treating it as a text message and
- shows the entire message, - partial enclosure and all as message text.
-
- 3. The following has become a standard feature. When messages are deleted they
- are moved into the trash. They will be permanently deleted when the user quits
- POPmail. If you delete a message and want it back do the following. Go into
- the trash. Drag the likely message out of the trash folder to some location (Only because the finder will not let you open files in the trash).
- And then double-click on it. POPMail will open it in a simple text window
- document. If it is the one you wish to keep move it back into the incoming
- message directory.
-
- 4. Check out the Search Files program. It is Shareware so if you like it
- please send the author his shareware fee. :-) You can use this little
- application to search your message directory or a tree of directories such as a
- folder which contains all of your archive folders. And it will search down into
- the directories contained within folders within folders. It is quite fast and works quite nicely in the background.
- It will show the file where it found a match for the search string and a
- short line of context for it. You can choose to see all hits in a file or just
- the first hit. Double-click on a line it displays and the message (archive or
- incoming) will open in a simple text window. Can be nice if you wish to send a
- summary of several messages received or just read several messages while
- composing a reply.
-
- 5. Messages that are archived with this version will retain their correct
- position. So that they show up in the correct order when viewed by date which
- is the normal ordering. They will show up at the end of an archive when
- archived. But when the archive is re-opened later they sort out to their
- correct position.
-
- 6. An Enclosures directory has been added. The directory if not specified will
- be created automatically in the same directory as the POPmail application when a
- user does their first fetch.
-
- POPmail 2.09 Fixes
- ------------------
- 1. Fixed memory leak in dns code. Introduced in version 2.07. Likely to go
- unnoticed by most people. But MailStop users would notice that they received a
- 'memory is low' dialog often. This dns code would occasionally not timeout
- requiring a kill of the program. Timeouts are friendly and have returned.
-
- 2. Fixed a bug in the Set Folder Dialog for System 7.x users. Dialog did not
- always retain the full info. On next restart the user would get a 'Please set
- the folder location' Dialog.
-
- 3. Fixed a memory leak in the email groups. Each time you edited the groups
- you would lose an amount of memory equal to that used to store the groups. This
- has been there since the very first version of POPmail II.
-
- 4. Fixed the Append Text option. First, it no longer does any formatting of
- the appended text. It just reads it and sends it. This also fixes the problem
- of seeing the appended text scrolling by in the sender window. Also fixes the
- bomb that would occur if you closed the sender window before it finished
- appending.
