                           Mailfilter NEWS (Summary)


mailfilter 0.1.1  (Sat Jan 27 09:26:47 GMT+1 2001)

  - New man pages: mailfilter(1), mailfilterrc(5), mailfilterex(5)

  - A 'normalised' subject string is now only checked if the message has
    passed all ordinary filters first (That's much more efficient.)

  - Replaced keyword ICASE with REG_CASE - less confusing that way (A list
    of deprecated keywords can be found in the mailfilterrc(5) man page.)

  - New keywords: TEST, SHOW_HEADER. See mailfilterrc(5) and mailfilterex(5)
    for details.

  - Small bug fixes that do not directly affect functionality


mailfilter 0.1.0  (Sat Jan 20 10:01:44 GMT+1 2001)

  - Added support for extended Regular Expressions

  - Added 'normalisation' of subject strings for more effective filtering

  - Improved memory management: e-mails are being filtered on the fly now

  - All Regular Expressions of Mailfilter are only compiled once now,
    on program startup; much faster!

  - New keywords for more efficient filtering:
    DENY_CASE, DENY_NOCASE, ALLOW, MAXSIZE_DENY, MAXSIZE_ALLOW
    (Consult the README.mailfilterrc file for further information!)

  - Added multi-level verbose mode (and replaced keyword MODE with VERBOSE)

  - Added check for malformed keywords in .mailfilterrc

  - Changes to the documentation; added platform specific installation
    instructions (Windows and Slackware Linux)

  - Moved some of the READMEs and the FAQ to the doc/ directory

  - Small bug fixes that do not directly affect the functionality


mailfilter 0.0.4  (Tue Dec 19 17:11:33 GMT+1 2000)

  A small but nasty bug made Mailfilter crash on certain versions of glibc.
  That's fixed now and also the reason why 0.0.4 was out so quickly after
  0.0.3 has been shipped.
  Mailfilter now allows ',' in the passwords and reports if the password
  that was sent to the server was incorrect.


mailfilter 0.0.3  (Thu Dec 14 16:31:46 GMT+1 2000):

  It doesn't hurt anymore having e-mails that match two or more filters at
  once.
  Added support for anal mail servers such as IMail.
  Various little bug fixes, mainly dealing with internal memory management,
  but also exception and error handling.
  Added a manual page.
  Added the ability to have case insensitive regular expression
  matching in the .mailfilterrc file (courtesy Ivan Vitjuk)
  Added api documentation in various formats


mailfilter 0.0.2  (Fri Nov 24 22:38:11 GMT+1 2000):

  Mailfilter doesn't break anymore when the bandwidth gets low. Nonblocking
  I/O seems to work as well and provides a better performance when checking
  for e-mail headers on the server.

  Various other little bug fixes have found its way in this release:
  The --mailfilterrc switch works now, MAXSIZE can be set to zero and the
  parsing of the e-mail headers got fixed.

  This version also offers better support for other platforms due to automake
  and provides a better help and version info (thanks to Matthew R. MacIntyre
  for implementing this).  Also changed from a shallow to a deep
  package structure.


mailfilter 0.0.1  (Fri Nov 17 16:10:51 GMT+1 2000):

  Mailfilter's initial version has been released. See TODO for more information
  on this (yet) experimental release.
