(Jaime Velasco Juan) 56 57 NEW IN VERSION 0.21 58 =================== 59 60 * Fix make clean target in dfasyn/ (Benj. Mako Hill) 61 * Limit number of messages that are examined when an end boundary is missing in 62 an mbox (Chung-chieh Shan) 63 * Avoid examining . and .. when traversing MH folder hierarchy (Steven Lumos) 64 * Fix various bugs in the name/value parser 65 * Add some RFC2231 support to the name/value parser (continuations) 66 * Fix indexing when existing database only contains 1 message 67 68 NEW IN VERSION 0.20 69 =================== 70 71 * Cache uncompressed mbox data (Chris Mason, further work by me) 72 * Fix gaps in date ranges for search 73 * Unlock database if mairix is interrupted (Paul Fox) 74 * Add fast index option (-F) 75 * Fix conditional compilation errors for compressed mbox 76 * Reimplement MIME header parsing 77 * Add capability to search on names of attachments 78 * Add capability to search on state of message flags 79 * Create maildir-format mfolder filenames correctly with regard to flags 80 * Various bug fixes (Oliver Braun, Matthias Teege) 81 82 83 NEW IN VERSION 0.19 84 =================== 85 * mairix.spec fixes (André Costa) 86 * bug fix: freeing of message structures (Karsten Petersen) 87 * Add new -x (--excerpt-output) option, an alternative mode for searching. 88 This displays the key headers from the matching messages on stdout. 89 * Add notes about the mairix-users mailing list and the SourceForge page to 90 README. 91 * Fix configuration + compilation to allow building with gzip support but 92 without bzlib support. 93 * Rename internal functions like zopen() to avoid name conflicts on MacOS X. 94 (Vincent Lefevre) 95 * Remove a spurious ; in bison input file (Vincent Lefevre) 96 * Improve output given in various error conditions (based on patch by Karsten 97 Petersen) 98 99 NEW IN VERSION 0.18 100 =================== 101 102 * Support bzip2'd mbox folders 103 * Fix bugs in parsing mbox folders containing unquoted 'From ' lines inside 104 MIME body parts 105 * Fix bug in parsing content-type data containing quotes with whitespace 106 before 107 * Clone the message flags (when both the source folder and mfolder are both 108 of maildir type) 109 * New manpages mairix.1 and mairixrc.5 are included, and the old texinfo-based 110 documentation is deprecated into the old_docs/ directory. 111 * Upgrade scanners to new version of dfasyn 112 * Support Mew's MH folder subtype 113 114 115 NEW IN VERSION 0.17.1 116 ===================== 117 118 * Fix detection of MH folder subtype used by nnml (Gnus) 119 * Fix filename format generated in the /cur/ directory for maildir mfolders. 120 * Syntax fix in configure script 121 122 NEW IN VERSION 0.17 123 =================== 124 125 * Support gzipped mbox folders (any file matched by a mbox= line in the config 126 file is considered as a gzipped mbox if its name ends in .gz) 127 * Rework directory traversal for the '...' construct to speed up indexing and 128 the check that mfolder isn't going to overwrite a real folder when searching. 129 * Check whether database exists before attempting to do searching. 130 * Matched new maildir messages go in /new/ subdirectory of maildir mfolder. 131 * Fix lots of compiler warnings generated by gcc4.x 132 * Don't create and immediately scrub database entries for empty mbox folders. 133 * Fix usage() info for bare word in searching 134 * Allow '.' on the ends of numeric filenames in MH folders (to work 135 with Evolution) 136 * Update .PHONY target so that 'make install' etc are more reliable. 137 * Add X-source-folder header to indicate the original folder of a match found 138 in an mbox. 139 * Migration to git for revision control. 140 141 NEW IN VERSION 0.16.1 142 ===================== 143 144 * Remove the lockfile if the program terminates for any reason. 145 146 NEW IN VERSION 0.16 147 =================== 148 149 * Home directory (~) and environment variable ($foo / ${foo}) expansion in the 150 .mairixrc file 151 * Add -Q flag to skip database integrity checks during indexing (equivalently 152 the nochecks option in .mairixrc file). This speeds up indexing but loses 153 some robustness. 154 * Add ^ word prefix to require substring search to be left-anchored 155 * Split 'make clean' into separate clean and clean_docs 156 * Improve some error messages 157 * Add online help entries for -o and -d 158 * Don't write out the database if there are no changes found during indexing. 159 * Fix stale information about the 'and' and 'or' delimiters in the online help. 160 * Add the capability to omit particular folders from indexing (omit keyword in 161 .mairixrc file.) This allows broad wildcards to be used with selected 162 folders removed from the wildcard which is much more convenient in many 163 set-ups. 164 * Avoid writing matches to any folder on the list of folders to be indexed 165 (affects both mfolder option and argument of -o command line switch.) This 166 prevents disasterous loss of messages in the event of trying to overwrite an 167 wanted folder with the matches. 168 * Implement dot-locking on the database file to prevent corruption due to 169 concurrent updates. Add --unlock file to forcibly remove a stray lockfile. 170 * Display message path in warning messages from rfc822 parsing. 171 172 NEW IN VERSION 0.15 173 =================== 174 175 * Migrate to GNU Arch for hosting the development archive 176 * In mbox parsing, handle return path in 'From ' line only being a local part 177 (reported by several people) 178 * Don't output number of matched messages in raw mode (to make output more 179 useful to scripts etc) (Samuel Tardieu) 180 * Fix vfolder->mfolder in dotmairixrc.eg (reported by several people) 181 * Handle spaces in multipart message boundary strings (Chung-chieh Shan) 182 * Be more tolerant of bad multipart message boundary separators (Chung-chieh 183 Shan) 184 * Add rudimentary database dump command (-d/--dump) 185 * Fix bug in handling of per-database hash key 186 * Improve standards-compliance of maildir output file names (Jeff King) 187 * Remove most compiler warnings 188 189 NEW IN VERSION 0.14.1 190 ===================== 191 192 * Bug fix : splitting of messages in mboxes was too strict regarding whitespace 193 194 NEW IN VERSION 0.14 195 =================== 196 197 * Fix error in path (p:) searching for messages in mboxes. 198 * Improve usage() function 199 200 NEW IN VERSION 0.13 201 =================== 202 203 * Fixes to support the mbox format used by Mozilla mail 204 * When creating vfolder directories for maildir/mh, remove existing 205 non-directory at the same path, if present. When creating mbox vfolder file, 206 complain if there's already a directory at the same path and exit. 207 * Switch from the term "virtual folder" to "match folder" 208 * Fix bug in path matches (p:) containing upper-case letters - previously they 209 matched on corresponding all lower-case paths. 210 211 NEW IN VERSION 0.12 212 =================== 213 214 ! Change in database file format - existing databases need to be destroyed and 215 recreated. 216 217 * Indexing of mbox folders in addition to the existing maildir & MH support 218 * Output to mbox format vfolder 219 * Return exit status 1 if no messages are matched in search mode, and exit 220 status 2 for all error conditions. 221 * Allow wildcards to be used in specifying maildir and mh folder paths. 222 * Searching on messages having a particular Message-ID (m:msgid expression in 223 search mode). 224 * When indexing whole email addresses, '+' is now considered a valid character. 225 * Use ',' instead of '+' in search expressions, and '/' instead of ','. This 226 is to allow '+' to be used inside email addresses that are being searched 227 for. The '/' character is traditionally associated with meaning 'or', so it 228 made more sense to move ',' to mean 'and'. (Unfortunately, there were very 229 few metacharacters left which don't have some special meaning to shells, and 230 I wanted to avoid the need to quote or escape the search expressions.) 231 * Bug fix checking return status of mmap. 232 * Handle ">From " at the start of the message headers 233 * Handle mis-formatted encoding strings "7 bit" and "8 bit" 234 * Make every database use a random seed for the token hash function (to prevent 235 denial of service attacks against mairix through carefully crafted messages.) 236 * Rename some options in the mairixrc file, to put the folder formats on an 237 equal footing. 238 * Properly handle the case where a maildir vfolder exists but one or more of 239 the new,tmp,cur subdirectories is missing. 240 * Add configure script (not autoconf-based) 241 242 NEW IN VERSION 0.11 243 =================== 244 245 * Detect failed malloc (out of memory) conditions properly and report it. 246 * Improved date specification syntax for d: option 247 * Allow vfolder to be an absolute path or relative to current directory, 248 instead of just relative to base directory. 249 250 NEW IN VERSION 0.10 251 =================== 252 253 * Add 'raw' mode for searching. 254 * When purging, only print the pass[12] message in verbose mode 255 * Add an ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS file. 256 * Hack to handle missing NAME_MAX on various non-Linux systems 257 * Improve mairix.spec file for RPM building 258 * Change default value for prefix in Makefile to make it more standard. 259 260 NEW IN VERSION 0.9 261 ================== 262 263 * Fix problem with auditing headers if a uucp/mbox-style "from " header is 264 present at the start. 265 * Allow \: sequence in folder names to specify a : 266 267 NEW IN VERSION 0.8 268 ================== 269 270 * Fix bug : mairix used to crash if a message had corrupted RFC822 header lines 271 272 NEW IN VERSION 0.7 273 ================== 274 275 * Fix bug : mairix likely to crash if a non-existant folder is listed in the 276 conf file. 277 * Allow multiple folders and mh_folders lines in the conf file for people who 278 have many separate folders. 279 * Print an extra 'comfort' message in verbose mode before starting to scan the 280 directory tree. 281 282 NEW IN VERSION 0.6 283 ================== 284 285 * When an unrecognized encoding is found, ignore the body part instead of 286 aborting the run. 287 288 NEW IN VERSION 0.5 289 ================== 290 291 * When -a option is used for search, avoid symlinking the same message twice if 292 it matches more than one query. 293 * Fixes to rpm spec file. 294 * Fix handling of = in base64-encoded attachments. 295 * Support non POSIX locales. 296 * Support rfc2047 encoding in headers. 297 * Create vfolder if it doesn't already exist. 298 * Allow searching on complete email addresses as well as individual words in 299 to, cc and from fields. 300 * New -o option to allow vfolder name to be given on the command line. 301 302 NEW IN VERSION 0.4 303 ================== 304 305 * Support for MH folders 306 * Create database with mode 0600 instead of 0644 (better security). 307 * Add Makefile target to install whichever forms of the documentation have been 308 built. 309 310 NEW IN VERSION 0.3 311 ================== 312 313 * Various bug fixes 314 315 NEW IN VERSION 0.2 316 ================== 317 318 * Substrings of message paths can be used as search expressions (p:substring 319 option) 320 * = now used instead of / as the delimiter for number of errors in an 321 approximate match (to help with path search) 322 * Bug fix when using -t mode for search with unpurged dead messages still in 323 the database. 324 325 ================== 326 # vim:comments-=mb\:*:comments+=fb\:*
