The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.

way. Thanks!

Fixes:
- message disappeared when ::Manager::moveMessages() had to move
messages to the folder it already was in.
rt.cpan.org#40198 [Florian]
- leave encodings in unknown charsets untouched, in stead of
croacking in studied header fields (M::M::Field::Full).
rt.cpan.org#40353 [Florian]
- thread detection with missing messages croaks in multiple ways:.
rt.cpan.org#40347 [Florian]

- understand unicode-1-1-utf-[78] charset

Changes:
- no questions asked about Mail::Box::Parser::C; it is not
really maintained as it should... but probably still works
in most cases.
Fixes:
- change in TAP::Harness shows missing TAP::Parser::Aggregator
in test.pl rt.cpan.org#39264 [Jerrad Pierce]
- removed (@) prototype on Mail::Internet::new replacement,
because it produces a warning on 5.10
version 2.083: Tue Sep 2 09:41:19 CEST 2008
Changes:
- FIX CHARACTER-SET HANDLING. When a new body is created,
it will get charset 'PERL', which means: Perl internal
representation. Also the decoded() body is of that. As part
of a message, the body with be translated into real utf-8.
This change will make Mail::Box slower, but correct! Check
your applications! Use $msg->decoded when you process the
content.
- removed $msg->decoded option 'keep', because decoded object
depends on temporary decoding parameters.
Fixes:
- use File::Temp, not POSIX::tmpnam, to work around Windows
bug. rt.cpan.org#35747 [Ron Murray]
- Mail::Message::contentType could produce "use of undefined"
error message [Patrick Heesom]
- Fix listing IMAP folders. rt.cpan.org#36458 [Jonathan Kamens]
- do not set charset on non-text parts.
- no complaints for IMAP4 object without explicit folder
name. rt.cpan.org#37801 [Slaven Rezic]
- remove SpamAssassion question from installation: SAv2 is the
only supported, but most people will not install that.
Improvements:
- doc-patch, where "my Type @array" is not permitted
anymore [Mike Andrews]
- do not coerce parts via messages into parts.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=...").
- another fix for the case of two "Content-Type" lines, hit
by a recent, now frequently appearing, spam message.
- various IMAP4 improvements by [David Golden]
- stop when message coersion is called but not possible.
- fixtest, to work with MIME::Entity changes.
- field attributes which contained a '\' where considered
empty. Reported by [Ricardo Signes]
