Hello, I am pleased to announce the release of GNU mailutils version 3.1.
GNU mailutils is a protocol-independent framework for email processing. It provides a set of libraries for doing almost any mail-related task on any existing mailbox format, using a consistent format-independent API. Several tools are built atop of these libraries and included in the package. Among them are pop3 and imap4 servers, the traditional mailx mail reader, the sieve mail filtering utility and a complete set of MH utilities that can be used with GNU Emacs MH-E mode. Visit http://mailutils.org for more information. This release features a new implementation of the Sieve mail filtering language. See below for a complete list of changes.

First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this: gpg --verify mailutils-3.1.tar.gz.sig If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, then run this command to import it: gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 3602B07F55D0C732 and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command. This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.69 Automake 1.14 Bison 2.7 Makeinfo 5.2 Noteworthy changes in this release: * Sieve The Sieve library essentially rewritten. The following new extensions are implemented: encoded-character - RFC 5228, 2.4.2.4 variables - RFC 5229 environment - RFC 5183 The utilities define the Sieve environment "location", and "phase" as per the following table: Utility | "location" | "phase" --------+-------------+-------- maidag | "MDA" | "during" inc | "MUA" | "post" sieve | "MS" | "post" The "sieve" utility provides a new option: --environment, for manipulating the environment. * Bugfixes ** Fix program name duplicate in the output of "mailutils help COMMAND" ** Fix several bugs in mhn ** Fix expansion of #, &, %, etc. in mail "copy" and "file" commands. ** Fix improper permissions after delivery to MH and Maildir mailboxes. ** Fix stream flushing code ** Fix the implementation of -nowhatnowproc option in mh Regards, Sergey -- If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html.
