v 2.0
- Autoconf based package configuration support added.
- Support for real X11 fonts when drawing the ticker.
Use the new option "-fn X11_FONT_NAME" or ~/.wmailrc-file statement
"Ticker.X11Font = X11_FONT_NAME" to enable it. If you wish to see latin1
characters not covered by the buildin font you MUST make use of this.
- Removed support of two buildin fonts (one seems enough when native
X11 font rendering is supported...) -> cmdline option "-bf" and
rcfile statement "Ticker.BoldFont" are no longer available
- added a window name when called with the -w option (libdockapp windowing
mode), this workarounds a dockapp library bug and makes wmail work docked
in Gnomes panel bar
- Fixed some reconfiguration memleaks
- Fixed button-keeps-up-when-pressed-and-empty-inbox bug
- Fixed Maildir file-parsing bug
- Fixed wmail-crash on dual-headed displays (Thanx to Michael Hocke!)
- Changed upper M@il symbol a bit ;-)
v 1.9
- Comment support added (by Juergen A. Erhard - thank you!)
- Status field content recognition enhanced: now you can supply the
content of the status field that markes you email as read. This is due
to different behaviour of different mbox readers - pine seems using "ro"
to mark a mail as read. The given value is substring-matched.
v 1.8
- Support for qmails Maildir format added: if you specify a directory
as your inbox then wmail assumes 'Maildir' functionality,
searches for the subdirectories "new" and "cur" and interprets all
files found directly under these directories as text-files containing
one single email message. When in Maildir-mode, checksums and the
file ~/.wmail-cksums are not used.
- Combining of equal sender-names before tickering them is not done
anymore - this hasn't worked if for example wmail shows only unread
emails and there are two emails from the same sender and one of them
is read, the other isn't.
v 1.72
- Now redrawing is done only if there are some changes to be drawn
(previous versions had redrawn the screen fps-times per sec. even if
the inbox was empty...)
v 1.71
- File parsing bug fixed: searching for "From"-directive is now
case-sensitive.
v 1.7
- Support for mail-header-field "Status" added: if this field
is set to "RO" the mail is assumed to be read. Turn this feature on
either by adding "Mail.UseStatusField = Yes" to your ~/.wmailrc-file
or using the new cmd-line option "-sf"
v 1.61
- Minor changes: signal-handling stuff reimplemented
- Included another set of xpms (thanx to delt!); to use it,
change the #includes in wmail.c to point to the xpm_delt dir
v 1.6
- Sender-skipping added: use this by adding some
"Mail.SkipSender = XYZ" to your ~/.wmailrc file. Note that you can
use the known wildcards here (i.e. "Mail.SkipSender = *Foo*" matches
all names containing "Foo")
- Support for execution of a custom command when receiving a new mail
added: either use the new option "-e" or a
"Mail.OnNew.Command = some-cmd" in the rc-file (for example this
makes it possible to play some sound file using the command
"/usr/bin/play some-sound.wav")
v 1.5
- Config-file support (~/.wmailrc), re-configuration of most options
during run-time is possible - a click on the docklets main-area
forces wmail to read its config-file. Note that this can also be
used to do a mailbox update...
- Bolder tickerfont added -> new option "-bf"
- Polling bug fixed (wmail has queried for new mail fps-times per
second...)
- Mailbox made configurable via cmdline -> new cmd-option "-mb"
- Color of inactive (off-switched) symbols made customizable -> new
cmd-option "-oc"
v 1.41
- Minor fixes, debugging-aid macro TRACE made more portable
v 1.4
- Made mails identifiable by a checksum to (hopefully) fix some
wrong behaviour of the recent-mails-only feature introduced with
v1.3 - this is also used to make wmail able to keep the current state
in mind, even after a restart. These checksums are written to the
file ".wmail-cksums" in the users home directory
v 1.3
- wmail is now able to show only recent mails in ticker and counter
(such ones you don't have read/opened yet since startup of wmail)
this is quite nice if you use your mail-file as an inbox storing
loads of mails there -> new cmd-option "-n"
- Solaris port got working (signal-handler bug fixed)
- Image of run-client-button changed
v 1.2
- Message counter now displays up to 3 digits
- Made ticker scroll-refresh customizable (30 fps by default)
-> new cmd-option "-fps"
v 1.1
- Parsing of from-header fixed/improved
- Added windowed mode support (only works with libdockapp v >0.4.0) and
support for a non-shaped window -> new cmd-options "-w" and "-ns"
- Made background color customizable (useful in windowed mode)
-> new cmd-option "-bg"
- Ticker either fullname, short-address-name or total-address
-> new cmd-option "-s"
- Changed pixmaps a bit
v 1.0
- Initial release
