this conflicts with the "typedef struct { } STRING" used througout
Alpine.
Since Alpine does not actually use the OpenSSL STRING def, obscure
it with #define and pretend it does not exist.
values on NetBSD, we we get correctly referred to __utime50() which can handle
64-bit values. This fixes a problem where mailbox mtimes were being reset to 0
Note that this actually causes some build warnings as the code uses
"time_t tp[2]" instead of "struct utimbuf tp" (contains two time_t values)
Although the <os_bsi.h> file says it is used for BSDI, it seems to be used by
NetBSD and OpenBSD, both of which have the <utime.h> and <time.h>
bump PKGREVISION
Changes since 1.10
Additions include:
* Redesigned Web Alpine interface
* Experimental S/MIME support added in UNIX versions of Alpine
* Attempt to include the attachment filename as part of the name
of the temporary file used when viewing an attachment with an
external program. Add some randomness to that filename to make
it hard to predict the filename. Add a filename extension,
usually derived from the type/subtype, to the temporary
filename. This was previously done only on Windows and MacOS
X.
* Enhance address completion in the composer (TAB command) so
that it looks through nicknames, fullnames, and addresses from
the address book; addresses from the message being viewed, if
any; and the results from LDAP Directory Server lookups for
all of the defined directory servers that have the
"Use-Implicitly-From-Composer" feature set.
* Make the default character set setting more liberal in what it
will accept from the UNIX nl_langinfo call and the various
values of LANG seen in the wild
* Remove the Alpine revision number from the titlebar in released
versions while leaving it there in snapshot versions
* Add a feature to suppress the display of asterisks when you
type a password for Alpine
* Add line wrapping when displaying PRE formatted sections of HTML
* When the Convert Dates To Localtime feature is turned on
convert not only the dates in the index screen but also the dates
in the MESSAGE VIEW
Bugs that have been addressed in this release include:
* Crash when using tab-completion for selecting a Save filename
* Make Web Alpine help text images relative for more portability
* Fixed attach save of html parts in Web Alpine
* Viewing, printing, exporting, replying, and bouncing of message
digests was broken. Replying and bouncing should not have
been allowed at all for digests. It would be nice to have a
more standard index-like view of a message digest but that has
not been addressed with this minor bug fix.
* Adjust wrapping of HTML messages so that the margins specified
by Viewer Margin Left and Viewer Margin Right are observed
correctly
* Interrupt of WhereIs command in index was broken
* The Unknown Character Set option did not work correctly
interpreting unknown characters in message headers
* Long address lines could cause blank continuation lines
* Save to a local default INBOX failed if the primary collection
was also local, which it is by default. The save went to
~/mail/inbox instead.
* Make a default save folder of "inbox" always mean the real
inbox, not the inbox in the primary collection
* Address book entries with lots of addresses would be truncated
when entered in the composer with a screen size wider than 270
or so charcters
* Some fields in the index screen were truncated when the screen
width was wider than 256 characters
* Crash when TABing to next folder, the next folder with new mail
is a POP folder, and there is a more than 10 minute pause
between typing the TAB and typing the Yes
The Maildir patch was altered on the master server without changing the
URL, so we have to alter DIST_SUBDIR, which affects the main distfile
as well. Emailed author to see if putting up versioned patchfile URLs is
feasible
The change in the Maildir patch:
- Fixed a bug which made Alpine not to delete folders correctly in
a #mc/ collection.
(Approved by agc for update during the freeze)
Changes from Alpine 1.00 to 1.10
New in Alpine 1.10
Version 1.10 addresses bugs found in previous releases and has
a few additions as well.
Additions include:
* Add the possibility of setting a default role (see Roles
Screen) which may be convenient if your work flow involves
acting in one role for a while then switching to another role
and staying in the new role for another period of time
* When Saving and the IMAP server problem "Message to save
shrank!" is encountered, ask the user if he or she wants to
continue with the risky Save anyway instead of aborting. This
may be helpful if your IMAP server is broken in this way but
be aware that it is possible there was a real error instead of
just a broken server implementation.
* Some configure adjustments for Kerberos detection and for SCO
OpenServer 5 support
* Hide INBOX in a collection if it also appears as an Incoming
Folder
* Show asterisks for feedback when the user is typing a password
* Performance improvement for threading of large folders
* Previously, the search used to find Pattern matches containing
To patterns searched for both To and Resent-To headers. The
relatively complicated search this produces causes problems
when using some deficient IMAP servers. Now the default is to
look only for To headers and ignore the presence of
Resent-To. The previous behavior may be restored with the Use
Resent-To in Rules feature.
* Add an Unknown Character Set to help with reading malformed
unlabeled messages
* Suppress User Agent When Sending option added
* Map some Shift-LeftArrow escape sequences to LeftArrow
* Add feature Warn if Blank Fcc
Bugs that have been addressed in this release include:
* Crash when encountering certain errors from an SMTP server
* Crash in composer caused by overflow in replace_pat()
* Hang when authenticating to an SMTP server that fails with a
"connection disconnected" error
* Bug in handling of trailing tab character in flowed text
* Security enhancement for mailcap parameter substitution
* Strip From Sigdashes on Reply did not work if the message being
replied to was not flowed text and Do Not Send Flowed Text was
not turned on
* Don't allow printer to be changed through hidden config screen
if system administrator didn't want it to be allowed
* Attempts are sometimes made to set the Forwarded flag when
alpine should know that it won't work, causing error messages
to appear
* A Reply Indent String of double-quote double-quote didn't work
right
* Quoting wasn't being done to protect special characters from
the MacOS X shell when URL-Viewers was not defined
* On MacOS X message attachments should be shown internally
instead of being shown using the Mail application
* When replying to a message with a charset of X-UNKNOWN Alpine
would sometimes set the outgoing charset to X-UNKNOWN, making
the result unreadable
* When the sending of a message failed lines with leading spaces
had one additional space inserted in each of those lines when
the user was returned to the composer
* The WhereIs command missed some index lines that contained
non-ascii characters because it was truncating the line being
searched so that it was shorter than what was visible on the
screen
* When composing, an attachment with a long name that causes
wrapping in just the wrong place would generate an error and
cause the send of the attachment to fail
* After calling the file browser to attach a file in the
composer, a resize of the window when back in the composer
would redraw the last screen that had been shown in the
browser instead of the current composer screen
* Possible crash in index screen when encountering unparseable
addresses or when using one of the PRIORITY tokens or the
HEADER token in the Index Format
* Problems with Header Color editing if the configuration option
Viewer Header Colors was inadvertently changed to the Empty
Value in the hidden config screen
* When resuming the final postponed message from an Exchange
server the user could get a certificate validation failure
because alpine was trying to validate the canonical name of
the folder instead of the name the user used
* Windows line endings in a mimetypes file on a Unix system cause
a failure to find a match
* Make matching of extension names case independent in mimetypes
files
* Windows dialog boxes for entering text were not working correctly
* Replying to or Forwarding multipart/alternative messages which
had a single text/html part did not work well
* Printing the print confirmation page caused a crash
* A To line with a long, quoted personal name could display
incorrectly if it was close to the same width as the screen
* When Enable Incoming Folders Checking and Incoming Checking
Includes Total are turned on hide (0/0) when the folder is
empty
* Folder completion while Saving didn't work if the collection
being saved to was the local home directory
can be disabled to remove the behavior again.
In spite of UW's "recommendations" against enabling this, it should be up
to the sysadmin and user whether to use the rope to build a bridge or
hang him/herself. PC-Pine has it enabled by default; there's no reason
besides FUD to make the Un*x build any different.
- The default configure scripts end up encoding '${prefix}' (note quotes)
at the start of /etc/pine.conf{,.fixed}. Use --with-system-pinerc and
--with-system-fixed-pinerc to explicitly set them to ${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}
pkgsrc portability patches submitted back upstream but ignored.
Additions include:
* Configuration support for Tru64 and some fixes for other systems
* New color option Header General Color to color all headers in MESSAGE
TEXT screen
* Added NONE color setting for Index symbols and Keyword colors so that
the background color of a symbol can be set to not blot out the
background color of an index line. There is also a similar NORM color
that tracks the Normal Color
* New color options Index Subject Color and Index From Color options to
color parts of MESSAGE INDEX lines
* Some improvements to Enable Incoming Folders Checking option,
including new options Incoming Checking Includes Total, Incoming
Checking Uses Recent, and Incoming Check Interval Secondary
* Eliminate address book sorting wars when two different systems sort an
address book differently. Instead of checking that the address book is
correctly sorted whenever it is opened the sorting will only happen
when a change is made. The sort order you see is the sort order from
the last system where a change was made.
* Added a new category of Rule called a Search Rule. A Search Rule has a
Pattern but no Action is associated with that Pattern. It is used with
the Select command in the MESSAGE INDEX screen to Select the set of
messages that match a rule's Pattern.
* Added minor adjustment to display of opening text with Opening Text
Separator Characters option. Display of opening text is controlled by
configuring your Index Format option to include one of the Subject
tokens that causes this behavior (SUBJECTTEXT, SUBJKEYTEXT, or
SUBJKEYINITTEXT).
* Added tokens OPENINGTEXT and OPENINGTEXTDQ for use with the Index
Format option. These are alternative ways to display the opening text
of a message in the index screen.
* Added SHORTIMAPSTATUS token for the Index Format
* The default values of many features have been changed, exposing a more
advanced user interface by default. In addition, though the names of
features used in the configuration files remains the same, the
displayed text in the Config screen is no longer tied directly to that
name.
* Changed Windows Alpine so that it can show up in the list of default
programs in Vista.
Bugs that have been addressed in this release include:
* INBOX displayed twice in some situations when there was a folder named
INBOX
* Crash in PC-Alpine related to traditional UNIX mailbox format
* Canceling out of the password prompt when opening an incoming folder
was causing the re-open of a previously opened folder to fail
* News collection display empty after canceling out of password prompt
* Extra password prompt when adding incoming folder after canceling out
of earlier password prompt
* Recognize and ignore XML processing instructions in HTML messages
* Window title was being set using Unicode characters instead of the
local character set of the display terminal
* The option Busy Cue Spinner Only was displaying an oncoming two-engine
airplane instead of a spinner
* Got rid of default green Subject header color added in 0.99
* Title Closed Color wasn't being shown when in the composer
* Disable-Input-History, which was added in previous version, is changed
to Disable Save Input History and its effect is restricted to
ambiguous situations, like Save
* Added missing input history command for Pipe Attachment
* Cannot open another folder after an empty directory is opened when
Combined Folder Display and Expanded View of Folders options are set
* When answering No to the commit changes question after changing the
Inbox Path the change was written to the config file anyway
* When the Threading Display Style results in the information being
truncated add a thread depth indicator in brackets at the right hand
edge
Alpine is the replacement for the Pine email and news client.
Alpine is a screen-oriented message-handling tool. In its default
configuration, Alpine offers an intentionally limited set of
functions geared toward the novice user, but it also has a large
list of optional "power-user" and personal-preference features.
This package currently only installs the alpine binary, excluding
the pilot and pico binaries which would cause it to conflict with
the pine package.
