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.
