Dada Mail 2.10 has been released. I'll save the bandwidth and not
list all the new whiz-bang features, if you'd like, here's some
market-talk:

One thing I wanted to focus on was its use of HTML::Template for it's
HTML screens. The last major release, I moved over all the inline
HTML over to HTML::Template. One of my hopes was that since this HTML
was now more easily accessible, that it would spur interest in a
wider audience of hackers that have different skillsets than Perl.
Well, it seemed to pay off, and I had another developer join my team
that who is an absolute gearhead in XHTML/css take over rewriting/
maintaining the HTML screens. There's now about 80 separate
HTML::Template templates and we've been able to validate and make
them absolutely XHTML/css savvy. He tells me that what you see at:
http://csszengarden.com/
Is now possible with Dada Mail. Neat.
So, kudos to the HTML::Template development team and H::T hackers.
Moving the HTML out of the Perl code was one of the best things that
could have been done for the program. I'm pondering on writing an
article on what needed to be done to move from the mishmash in the
Perlcode, to the current system. I think I've been pondering this for
a while. One day :)
