** New Features in MH-E 7.2 |
12 |
|
|
13 |
|
*** Filing Hints |
14 |
|
|
15 |
|
When you file a message, MH-E now looks for an alias corresponding to |
16 |
|
the address of the sender and offers that as a default folder (closes |
17 |
|
SF #657096). The new variable `mh-default-folder-prefix' can be used |
18 |
|
to put these folders in a sub-folder. The new variable |
19 |
|
`mh-default-folder-must-exist-flag' means to suppress the suggested |
20 |
|
folder (thereby providing the previous folder used) if the folder |
21 |
|
doesn't already exist. The new variable `mh-default-folder-list' can |
22 |
|
be used to map additional addresses and folders. |
23 |
|
|
24 |
|
*** Hierarchical File Name Completion |
25 |
|
|
26 |
|
When you completed filenames in the past, you were presented with a |
27 |
|
list of all your folders at all depths in the tree. Now you are |
28 |
|
presented with only one level at a time (closes SF #664821). |
29 |
|
As a result, the variables `mh-auto-folder-collect-flag' and |
30 |
|
`mh-folder-list-change-hook' are obsolete. |
31 |
|
|
32 |
|
*** Indexed Search and Pick Integration |
33 |
|
|
34 |
|
The indexed and pick searches have been integrated (closes SF |
35 |
|
#664816). Both "F s (mh-search-folder)" and "F i (mh-index-search)" |
36 |
|
use the pick template for forming queries. To submit the query, use |
37 |
|
"C-c C-c (mh-do-search)" which will use the query method you selected. |
38 |
|
If you change your mind while forming the query, you can use "C-c C-i |
39 |
|
(mh-index-do-search)" or "C-c C-p (mh-pick-do-search)" to submit the |
40 |
|
query using the respective method. |
41 |
|
|
42 |
|
Second, the results from a pick search are now saved in a sub-folder |
43 |
|
of +mhe-index like an indexed search. |
44 |
|
|
45 |
|
Third, `pick' is now a valid choice for `mh-index-program'. |
46 |
|
|
47 |
|
*** mh-visit-folder Metamorphosis Continues |
48 |
|
|
49 |
|
When visiting a folder from the speedbar, only the unseen messages are |
50 |
|
shown if there are unseen messages. If there aren't any unseen |
51 |
|
messages, all of the messages are shown if there are fewer than |
52 |
|
`mh-large-folder' messages; otherwise, the user is prompted for the |
53 |
|
range of messages to display. The "F v (mh-visit-folder)" command has |
54 |
|
been modified to mimic this behavior. Use a prefix arg to force the |
55 |
|
message range prompt. |
56 |
|
|
57 |
|
*** Displayed Message Indicator |
58 |
|
|
59 |
|
In graphical Emacs, the message that is shown is marked by a triangle |
60 |
|
in the fringe. In textual Emacs, there is a ">" in the first column |
61 |
|
(closes SF #664824). |
62 |
|
|
63 |
|
*** Buffer Name Organization |
64 |
|
|
65 |
|
All ephemeral buffer names start with " *mh" while all interesting |
66 |
|
buffers start with "*MH-E ". The "*Folders*", "*Sequences*", and |
67 |
|
"*Recipients*" buffers were therefore renamed to "*MH-E Folders*", |
68 |
|
"*MH-E Sequences*" and "*MH-E Recipients*" respectively (programmers |
69 |
|
should see mh-utils.el for the names of the new constants). Also, the |
70 |
|
output of MH commands is saved in the "*MH-E Log*" buffer. |
71 |
|
|
72 |
|
*** mh-index-program |
73 |
|
|
74 |
|
Add choices for `mairix' and `pick'. |
75 |
|
|
76 |
|
*** Logo Displayed on Mode Line |
77 |
|
|
78 |
|
** New Variables in MH-E 7.2 |
79 |
|
|
80 |
|
The new variables have been discussed elsewhere. |
81 |
|
|
82 |
|
** Bug Fixes in MH-E 7.2 |
83 |
|
|
84 |
|
*** mh-decode-content-transfer-encoded-message |
85 |
|
|
86 |
|
Messages that had been encoded with base64 were not decoded. This has |
87 |
|
been fixed with this new function (closes SF #674190). As a result, |
88 |
|
the variable `mh-decode-quoted-printable-flag' has been renamed to |
89 |
|
`mh-decode-content-transfer-encoded-message-flag'. |
90 |
|
|
91 |
|
*** mh-kill-folder |
92 |
|
|
93 |
|
Now restores previous window configuration (closes SF #664828). |
94 |
|
|
95 |
|
*** mh-mime-display |
96 |
|
|
97 |
|
MH-E was not using the charset defined in the content-type |
98 |
|
header. This meant that mail in a different charset would not |
99 |
|
be properly displayed. This has been fixed (closes SF #655123). |
100 |
|
|
101 |
|
*** mh-read-address |
102 |
|
|
103 |
|
In XEmacs and Emacs20, this function would always prompt using "To: " |
104 |
|
instead of using the command argument. This has been fixed (closes SF |
105 |
|
#670913). |
106 |
|
|
107 |
|
*** mh-rmail |
108 |
|
|
109 |
|
Unseen messages are now shown in addition to new ones (closes SF |
110 |
|
#667542). |
111 |
|
|
112 |
|
*** mh-scan-msg-overflow-regexp |
113 |
|
|
114 |
|
Change the variable so that a space is always maintained in the |
115 |
|
beginning of the scan line. |
116 |
|
|
117 |
|
*** mh-swish-execute-search |
118 |
|
|
119 |
|
The example configuration file in the docstring didn't show the |
120 |
|
backslash in the FileRules filename. If the example had been used |
121 |
|
literally by the user, no files would be indexed! This has been fixed |
122 |
|
(closes SF #665888). |
123 |
|
|
124 |
|
*** mh-thread-refile |
125 |
|
|
126 |
|
The "T o (mh-thread-refile)" command did not provide refiling hints |
127 |
|
like `mh-refile-msg'. This has been fixed (closes SF #664829). |
128 |
|
|
129 |
|
*** mh-toggle-threads |
130 |
|
|
131 |
|
If the threaded view was modified and then toggled, the standard view |
132 |
|
may not have been accurate (as it contained a potentially old first |
133 |
|
message to last message range). This has been fixed (closes SF |
134 |
|
#626117). |
135 |
|
|
136 |
|
*** mh-tool-bar-show-set, mh-tool-bar-letter-set, mh-tool-bar-folder-set |
137 |
|
|
138 |
|
Clicking the customize and help buttons now deletes the other windows |
139 |
|
in the frame. |
140 |
|
|
141 |
|
*** mh-version |
142 |
|
|
143 |
|
The "M-x mh-version" command displayed "Aliasfile: aliases". This has |
144 |
|
been fixed (closes SF #664467). See Buffer Name Organization above. |
