Mutt-1.2 has been released under
<ftp://ftp.mutt.org/pub/mutt/>. Detached PGP signatures
for the source tar-ball are available. The only version
distributed is "mutt-1.2i". That is, there is no
crypto-crippled version any more.
For a list of download locations, please see
<http://www.mutt.org/download.html>.
PLEASE READ THE FILE README.UPGRADE BEFORE INSTALLING THIS
VERSION OF MUTT OVER A PRE-1.1 VERSION OF MUTT!
New features include:
- heavily improved IMAP support (thanks to Brandon Long
and Brendan Cully for their work),
- support for using IMAP over SSL (thanks to Tommi
Kommulainen),
- a completely changed interface for configuring mutt's
PGP support. It's now format-based, and much more
flexible than it used to be in the past.
- a split of the old edit-message command into
resend-message and edit-message. While the former gives
you what could be described as "recall from arbitrary
folders", the latter can be used to low-level modify
messages.
- the weeding paradigma has changed. Instead of options
controlling weeding behaviour for all kinds of purposes,
there is one global $weed option which is toggled when
you use what used to be known as display-headers (now
display-toggle-weed). That is, you have some kind of
"WYSIWYG" support with weeding.
- we have a muttrc (5) manual page now, and it's even
up-to-date.
- you can better control your messages' header and
envelope from headers
- the message commands on the attachment menu have been
rewritten. Just try replying to an attachment, and
you'll see what happens. ;-)
- mailing list support has changed. You may wish to
rename your "lists" commands to "subscribe". But please
read README.UPGRADE before!
- Bug fixes of all sorts.
Credits go to lots of contriubtors on the mutt-dev mailing
list who have done quite a nice job on getting mutt where
we currently are.
