New in Alpine 0.9999
Version 0.9999 addresses bugs found in previous releases and has a few additions
as well.
Additions include:
* New feature Thread Sorts by Arrival to rearrange by threads that have
the most recent arrivals.
* New feature Convert Dates To Localtime to convert dates to your local
timezone before displaying them
* Small changes to Lcc behavior in composer. Lcc will usually append to
the To line contents now instead of replacing them. Lcc in a role
will set the To line, like it does if you type in the nickname in the
Lcc field. It still won't set the Fcc but you can set up the role to
do that if you want.
* Attempt to handle so-called soft hyphens but only in a simple way
* New color option Incoming Unseen Color to color Incoming folders
containing unseen messages
* New feature NNTP Search Uses Overview to improve search response in
news. This feature is turned on by default. If it causes trouble
please let the alpha list know.
* In addition to the automatically set status flags for "New",
"Answered", and "Deleted" state that already existed, a new
"Forwarded" state flag has been added. This flag is a little
different from the others in that it is implemented by using the
non-standard "$Forwarded" keyword instead of one of the IMAP standard
system flags.
* New tokens (Tokens for Index and Replying) for the Index Format
option. The tokens are PRIORITY, PRIORITYALPHA, and PRIORITY!. These
give a way to display the value of the X-Priority header. It's also
possible to set the value of the X-Priority header on outgoing mail
by using the "Priority" subcommand that is available after typing
Ctrl-X to send. These tokens may be colored using the Index Priority
Symbol Colors.
Bugs that have been addressed in this release include:
* Alternate editor did not work in PC-Alpine
* Crash when choosing from several postponed messages if postponed
message folder was local
* Crash when saving to a local folder (error was "imap_cap called on
non-IMAP stream!")
* Terminal reset not working correctly with display and sending filters
* Cutting / pasting addresses with commas inside quotes did not work
correctly in the composer
* If both Separate Folder and Directory Entries and Hide Empty
Directories were set then empty dual-use directories were not hidden
* If the Folder Sort Rule sorted directories to the front or back of
the list, Hide Empty Directories was turned on, and Separate Folder
and Directory Entries was turned off; the sort order could be
incorrect
* Calculating a Score using the "Score From Header" method did not work
unless the "Score Value" was set to something other than zero
* Left arrow did not exit from Setup/Config screen by default
* SHORTIMAPSTATUS token added in last version was not quite right
* We were breaking the References: header and thus threading when we
encountered reasonably long Message-Ids
* Windows Alpine could freeze when receiving a message in Hebrew or
other languages with zero-length Unicode characters
* Windows Alpine was ignoring characters input via Alt-Gr, such as the
"@" symbol on a German keyboard.
* Filters that used an incoming folder as a Specific folder to match
did not work if the folder name ended with an implicit "INBOX"
* Character set was wrong when forwarding a multi-part alternative and
typing in text in a character set different from the character set of
the part being forwarded
* Bounce was sometimes translating text instead of just sending it as
labeled
* Several small adjustments to message-to-message navigation in
threaded index screens and some small adjustments in the appearance
of index lines in those screens
* Eliminate status message flicker when holding down the down arrow
