Hi Peter,

Thanks for your quick reply.

Took some time to review and validate all the changes and incorporate them. I commited them today and I updated the doc (hmrc.4 hmrc.html) as well.

Could it be possible to make a new release of hypermail? Most linux distributions will only use the official tgz files as a basis for packaging them, ignoring CVS at all. For example, the debian hypermail package is using a four year-old version..

I'm not sure that I can upload a new tgz myself. I don't have the necessary sourceforge privileges to do so. I'd like to name it version 2.2.1 or 2.3.0. You'll find here below the corresponding Changelog entries.

If you agree to make this new release, I'd like to have a couple of days to consult the debian packagers and see if they want to contribute any of their patches to this new release.

Many thanks,

-jose

 Jose Kahan (Oct 26, 2009)

• Updated hmrc.4 and hmrc.html to descrbie the new features.

 Jose Kahan (Oct 26, 2009)
  Various fixes / enhancements developed at W3C by Fumihiro Kato,   Daigo Matsubara and myself:

• Markup changes for deleted messages that are kept.
• New directive: htmlmessage_deleted for setting a custom HTML message for the body of deleted messages.
• New directive: delete_incremental to disable deleting of existing messages in the archive when doing an incremental add of a new message. In some setups, if this feature is enabled, replies to deleted messages will cause uncontrolled markup escape and expansion. Feature is enabled by default.
• Updated list of known protocol uris that hypermail will convert into links.
• Bug fix: setup.c:MakeConfig() CFG_SWITCH was using long instead of int.
• New directive: fragment_prefix for customizing the prefix that is put before each URI fragment in a message. Default value is "msg", the previous hard-coded value.
• New directive: email_address_obfuscation foro enablingemail address obfuscation using numeric character reference.
• New directive: inline_addlink to add in-line links to content that is stored in the attachments subdirectory. 'inline_types" must also be enabled.
• New directive: inreplyto_command, gives a URI template to a script that hypermail will link to if it's unable to find a corresponding Message-Id in the archive's messages.

 Peter McCluskey (May 13, 2008)

 Peter McCluskey (Feb 16, 2007)
  Changes from Rick van der Zwet:
   cosmetic = tweaking the interface a small bit (right align, the message    numbers, years in the date listing
   spamify-domain = obfuscate the body of the message as well (will also    obfuscate 'ssh rick_at_foo.bar' this of course), moved the domain obfuscate    yes/no to the general to make the function more portable  Changes from Mike Fabian changing int to size_t.
