articles in 0.11.0.90. D'oh!
* Fixed 0.11.0 bug that, when an empty group was activated, Pan would
go to the server twice for new headers instead of once. In addition
to pointless load, if you were really unlucky there would be one or
two new articles in the second load, marking the ones from the first
run and leaving you scratching your head "how did I just download a
batch of old articles from a new group?" :)
Pan 0.11.0.90 (Nov 14, 2001)

attachments to be decoded improperly in 0.11.0. Thanks to

* If saving attachments to disk because a directory isn't writable
then give a warning in the Pan log and fail the task so that the
user can fix the problem. Thanks to Sebastien Leclair for
reporting this bug.
* Build fixes for the Compaq C compiler on Linux Alpha. Thanks to
Alan Young for reporting these problems and submitting a patch.
* The Article cache was growing past the user-defined limit in
0.11.0. Thanks to Muralito and Alan Young for reporting this bug.
* Fixed rare crash-on-exit bug that occurred when one thread was
shutting down the Pan app log while another thread was trying to
log a shutdown message. :) Thanks to Jed Baer for reporting this
bug.
* Now handles watching/ignoring a thread even if the article
selected when 'watch' button is pressed has a broken References:
header. (Shame on you Forte Agent 1.8! :) Thanks to David Watson
for reporting this bug.
* Fixed rare gui lockup bug when loading new articles for the group
that's currently loaded.
* "Flag Thread" and "Unflag Thread" didn't flag the entire thread
as they should have. Thanks to Peter Borgmann for reporting this
bug.
* Fixed bug that caused groups to be threaded more often than
necessary.
* Fixed bug that didn't remember the "Thread/Unthread Header Pane"

twice before it would work. Thanks to Jed Baer for reporting
this bug.
* Fixed small compile problem reported by Gabi Davar and
Francesco Lamonica.

reporting this.
* Fixed 0.10.0.93 bug that caused Pan to not clear the header pane
toolbar's search field when a new group is loaded.
* Fixed 0.10.0.93 bug that caused Pan to not remember which sort
column to use when reloading a group. Thanks to Alen Williams for
reporting this bug.

they were downloaded into the current group. Thanks to
Himanshu J. Gohel for reporting this bug. #62913

groups tasks in reverse order. #62969
* Fixed bug in the rot13 code that truncated lines when they

reporting this bug. #62569
Pan 0.10.0.93 (October 18, 2001)
NEW FEATURES
* Pan now uses libESMTP to send mail (forwarding or replying to
an article by mail), removing a couple of difficult mail bugs
from earlier versions of Pan.
UPDATES
* Added Preferences option to toggle custom foreground/background
colors in the text pane vs. using the default gtk theme colors.
Thanks to Justin Piszcz for suggesting this.
BUG FIXES
* Fixed problems with different threads manipulating articles
concurrently. This should fix some of the bugs recently reported
which are irreproducable but all similar.
* Articles' memory management is now tied to an article refcount
of the group which owns them. This resolves the Article life
cycle issues like "what happens if a rule deletes an article that
articlelist is drawing?" and "what if an article is expired while
a person's reading it?" etc.
* Fixes bug that caused some Tasks to get stuck in an Abort state
even if they completed successfully.
* Fixed bug that caused Tasks to sometimes not get run in the queue
