Features

patch-0.50

patch target: latest CVS version (local copy)

• based on latest CVS version contains I18N support.

patch-0.30

• new feature: email_address_obfuscation provides new anti-spambot scheme. It keeps backward compatibility with old archive.

patch-0.29

patch target: hypermail-2.2.0.tar.gz (local copy)

• new feature: htmlmessage_deleted, it provides markuped text for deleted messages.
• new feature: escapeing code for mailto: URI (makemailcommand()) was rewritten. Now it escapes URI correctly, also it encodes non-ASCII subjects in Base64 or Quoted-Printable.
• new feature: additional_attachment_links, it adds hyperlink to inline images. It's because archiver cannot know what kind of format could be renderd by useragents. This request came from Chris Lilley.
