1 Things to add to the release notes for the next full release:
7 - All nmh programs will now warn about multiple profile entries for
8 the same non-null, non-comment component. In previous versions, all
9 but the first were silently ignored.
10 - mhmail now supports all post(8) options, or optionally can use
11 send(1) with all of its options. Its formerly undocumented -resent
12 switch has been documented. And it has new -attach, -headerfield,
13 and -send/-nosend switches.
14 - Default to flock() locking on OpenBSD and Darwin.
15 - Added -directives support to mhbuild(1) to control whether or not
16 mhbuild will honor MIME directives by default. And added support
17 for special #on/#off/#pop directives to control the MIME directive
19 - Added -messageid switch to send(1) and post(8). This allows
20 selection of the style to use for generated Message-ID and
21 Content-ID header fields. The default localname style is
22 pid.time@localname, where time is in seconds, and matches previous
23 behavior. The random style replaces the localname with some
24 (pseudo)random bytes and uses microsecond-resolution time.
