ANT Application Help - ChangeLog
-------------

ChangeLog since v1.45

  • Fixed TCP timeout bug at long last!
  • Fixed empty entries in newsgroups windows (fault in expiry DLL in InetSuite)
  • Fixed serious fault with address book - reload in config would empty address book, but not update address book pane, so lots of bad pointers would reset in crash

    ChangeLog since v1.44

  • Fixed problem with endless cycle on newsgroup open (bug in new cclient library)
  • Fixed bug in HTML help rc.html - dateshort/long is in ANSI C format, not RISCOS !Alarm format, tags are timeshort/long, not dateshort/long, and added directives from since many users won't have a copy
  • Fixed bug when doing disconnect while address book window open (giving AddressAbort not found)
  • New loopserver module that copes correctly with escaped ')' in email addresses
  • New loopserver module fixes blank lines in local mailbox (was overview problem)
  • New loopserver module correctly outputs empty Content-Type: if no such header line (eg, from non-MIME mail packages) instead of bogus zero-page strings which could make Marcel give 'attachments' icons when there weren't any

    ChangeLog since v1.43

  • Removed 'Article->Mark read' from textview news menu, since article will already be marked read/deleted, and 'Keep' offers the function of 'mark unread'
  • Fixed problem with disappearing 'message open' tick in filer window
  • Fixed crash with Ctrl-V move message(s) crashing if 'create folder?' dbox appeared
  • Keyboard shortcut Ctrl-T for news 'fetch all' in filer or textview
  • sendmail DLL now correctly converts "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?=" format From: addresses when building quoted reply of message text
  • If attachments are quoted-printable, we don't try and strip out CRLF (because might be a binary file that doesn't want to be corrupted!)
  • Updated !Sprites (removed some useless palettes + masks)
  • New vCard filetype sprites in !Sprites, !Sprites22, !Sprites23
  • Now correctly sets Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8BIT if uuencoded mode, 8-bit text in messgage body and uuencoded attachments (wasn't doing it with attachments before)
  • Fixed LoopServer bug not handling multiple To:, etc. lines

    ChangeLog since v1.42

  • Fixed non-truncation of 15 char uuencoded attachment filenames (now allows upto 31 chars, and forces termination)
  • Ensures BorderUtils for RO3.1
  • No longer pipes stderr to a file (stops running it off a locked disc), and removed PathCheck since no longer needed for production builds
  • localhost fast searching on from/to now checks To: as well as From: (!) Corrects fault introduced in 1.42 release
  • Improved searching - uses mail_cache for subject/date for mail/news and from if news doesn't check ReSent-To/Cc/From: if local mail (because complete mailbox parse required)
  • New LoopServer with fast Reply-To: searching so that From/To search is even quicker
  • Optimised SetFlags() to not write/read server flags unless a change from cached copy
  • New LoopServer with TCP_NODELAY - message open time down to 0.34s from 1.53 (4 times speed increase) for both mail and news
  • 80 character warning text/config/interactive help changed to say 'long lines' rather than 80, since the warning is actually for lines > 120 or so (80 chars is too restrictive since the odd line is often too long, but we're trying to catch large blocks of unwrapped text)
  • If address book item already selected, then clicks on it wouldn't send the address to other windows/applications
  • Much faster mailbox closing (only parses mailbox file if at least one message flag has changed)
  • new /overview cache files for IMAP mailboxes saved when mailbox closed for massive speed increase in opening mailboxes
