Hello list,

hereby i announce S-nail v14.8.8, the «The Vulture 38».
It is a cumulated bugfix release.
It silently replaces v14.8.7 from «Yesterday», which was broken:
thanks Gaetan Bisson for reporting this.  I'll remove all files of
v14.8.7 next week.

Credits Gaetan Bisson, Sergey Matveev, Dirk-Wilhelm Peters,
Allan McRae and Ralph Corderoy.
All the mentioned persons deserve special thanks indeed.

We welcome Sergey Matveev, Allan McRae and Ralph Corderoy in
THANKS.

  S-nail will become S-mailx after v14.9, and all project resources
  will move to www.sdaoden.eu with v14.9; only the ML remains hosted
  at Sourceforge.net as of this writing.
  We thank Sourceforge.net for hosting this project so many years!

The detached OpenPGP signature (.asc) and the compressed versions
(.xz,.gz) of the release tarball can be downloaded by appending the
extension of desire to the tarball's URL, e.g., via "curl -vv -L":

  https?://www.sdaoden.eu/downloads/s-nail-latest.tar
  https?://www.sdaoden.eu/downloads/s-nail-14.8.8.tar

  Manual       : https?://www.sdaoden.eu/code-nail.html
  Web          : https?://www.sdaoden.eu/code.html#s-nail
  git(1) clone : https?://git.sdaoden.eu/scm/s-nail.git
  git(1) browse: https?://git.sdaoden.eu/cgit/s-nail.git

In the following numbers in [] reference a commit hash or a topic
branch name.  mdocmx(7) anchors are denoted by a number-sign #:
typing "^A ANCHOR" while reading the man(1)ual in a capable less(1)
will scroll to the manual's Point-Of-Interest, and pointing a web-
browser to the "#ANCHOR" of the online manual will do so, too.
Commits can be browsed by appending the commit hash to
  https://git.sdaoden.eu/cgit/s-nail.git/commit/?id=

The complete changelog of commits in between two versions OLD and
NEW can be inspected by using the git(1) `log' command:

  $ git log --reverse --topo-order --abbrev-commit OLD..NEW
  # Only topic branch headers (--no-merges for content commits only):
  $ git log --oneline --reverse --topo-order --merges OLD..NEW
  # Same, but truly accessible:
  $ git log --oneline --reverse --topo-order --merges --parents OLD..NEW |
    while read c1 c2 c3 c4 c5 c6; do
      printf "%-24s: \$ git log --oneline --no-merges %s ^%s\n" \
        "${c6}" "${c1}" "${c2}";
    done

NOTES, ChangeLog (packager-affine)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- The names of the release balls no longer use underscores in the
  version number.
  And from now on we provide *-latest.tar.{asc,gz,xz} symbolic
  links which point to the real release.  (That wasn't possible on
  Sourceforge.net once i've tried it.)

- Thanks to Sergey Matveev the Maildir code is now compatible to *BSD.
  Interested persons may read the commit log. [0c30b14] (Sergey Matveev)

- The (much to restricted) test target should now work if $SHELL is set
  to something "nologin". [7876f3a]  (Gaetan Bisson)

- If *sendmail-no-default-arguments* is set we will NOT (!) terminate
  MTA options with "--", assuming the user does.  This allows, e.g.,
  very sick things like (ouch) [8b0bdbe]

    set sendmail="/bin/ssh" \
      sendmail-arguments="[email protected] /usr/sbin/sendmail -t" \
      sendmail-no-default-arguments \
      sendmail-progname="ssh"

ChangeLog
^^^^^^^^^

- The primitive builtin HTML filter should now correctly parse HTML
  parameters.  It seems to become necessary ;) [e227a78,65df701]

- *signature* will now undergo MIME encoding. [fe209f7]
  (Dirk-Wilhelm Peters)

- Operating systems without getaddrinfo(3) but only with gethostname(3)
  should be able to resolve DNS (port numbers) correctly again.
  [7dd3a71]  (Allan McRae)

- The builtin NCL no longer counts gabby history limits against the
  given maximum persistent history size unless gabbiness is desired.
  [76780e4,f06ccb6]

- The builtin NCL couldn't paste more than one line since October 2015.
  [ff5d914]  (Ralph Corderoy)

ChangeLog (purely technical)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- WANT_READLINE environments should possibly have a better experience
  hen interactively editing the attachment list. [ede2800]
  (In general interactive situation has to improve a lot.)

- Fix a bit of weird buffer handling. [536d3a7,0f2cc31,e9a5c22]
  (Ralph Corderoy)

- Fix the fixed buffer handling which broke v14.8.7. [3e4831a]
  (Gaetan Bisson)
