Hello. I wish everyone a good and hopefully healthy and peacful 2024!
v14.10 will take time, as i said. It is delayed even further because i am about to write a small DKIM signer, because Google will enforce that for mailing-lists (it causes defers for this ML since maybe november, already!), and i am not happy with what is available. Will be a very hard task to do so in the next two and a half weeks! One of the problems is that a RFC 5322 aka Internet Message Format aka email header parser is required. I cannot use the terrible one that the codebase of this MUA uses, so i am about to write a new one from scratch. It will be hard to add the hacks we need for BSD Mail to get right, but it would be a lunatic experience to add support for the ?single modifier that i introduced for address fields (see for example -t command line option docu)! I am pretty sure noone is actually using this except our tests :), since email addresses tend to be simple (the big ones *radically* enforce that for their users, for example), other MUAs, like mutt, simply fail for, or mutilate user input of that sort, and then we do have the `addrcodec' command, actually, which can be used to create acceptable input. (This has to improve.) So my thinking is that i radically drop support for the ?single modifier for addresses, of which, i am quite sure, most of you have never heard, but very, very likely never used. Interested' in comments! Ciao, and a good time i wish!! --steffen | |Der Kragenbaer, The moon bear, |der holt sich munter he cheerfully and one by one |einen nach dem anderen runter wa.ks himself off |(By Robert Gernhardt)
