They also all process all component templates through - mh-format(5). -- post(8) now requires a From: header in all drafts that it processes - for sending. The default component templates have all been adjusted - to include appropriate From: headers based on either the -from switch - or the local mailbox. -- burst(1) now supports any valid message delimiter according to RFC 934. -- A problem with the MD5 digest calculator on 64-bit systems has been fixed. + FACEPROC (undocumented faceproc feature removed) +- Changed repl and dist default to -noatfile.
