0.5.8 -> 0.5.9
  o Brought back the right-click menu in the Mailbox pane
    since I for one really liked that
  o Fixed a segfault in the Composer's save email function
  o Added Danish NLS support
  o Fixed some memory leaks and bugs in the accounts dialog
  o Saving an email from the main window shouldn't put 2
    copies of the header information into the file anymore
  o Okay, for some reason I made it so that you needed at least
    one mailbox in order to create another (oops!). Fixed that.
  o Fixed a segfault that was cuased when a user added a mailbox
    (unfortunately, this again disallows creating a new mailbox
    when there aren't any - will have this fixed later)
  o Creating a new mailbox no longer truncates the file representing
    the mailbox
  o Remake of the Filters GUI
  o Redid the status dialog for checking mail so that it doesn't
    make a new status dialog for each account and instead uses the
    same one.
  o Other segfault fixes/code cleanups

0.5.7 -> 0.5.8
  o The main window is now made up of resizable panes
    (TODO: save sizes)
  o Security fix to disallow core dumps
  o Imap support (needs to be bug tested though)
  o Better support for local mail spools (you may now add
    them like any other mailbox rather than having to link
    to them)
  o The status windows are now working like they should
  o I have coded a quick-fix for the GUI locking up during
    mail retrieval until I get around to threading spruce.

0.5.6 -> 0.5.7
  o Rewrote the mailbox_is_spruce_format() function so that
    no one should have any problems anymore with it
    not detecting a mailbox format correctly.
  o Added more potfiles (Korean and Russian)
  o Fixed a segfault bug
  o No one should have that problem with spruce failing to send
    a message anymore. Some users experienced problems sending and
    for a warning like: "MAIL FROM recv()". I had gotten around that
    by coding a "hack" for a few of the troublesome SMTP servers. Now
    it's fixed for good - same thing for the pop3 side (or so I hope).
  o Fixed it so that you can print more than once ;-)
  o You should now be able to have an infinite number of
    message-reader windows open at any given time.
  o Spruce now highlights new messages in the mailbox list
  o Short headers are now 8-bit parsed like they should have
    been all along, but I forgot ;-)
  o Fixed a bug in the get_trimmed_header() function that
    cut off a field too early when the field was too long
    to fit on one line and thus had to be wrapped to the next line.
  o Fixed a similar bug in the filter code which prevented
    some mail from being correctly filtered when the field
    that contained the filter rule was wrapped to the next line(s).
  o Fixed a bug where Spruce would segfault if you gave a
    command line with the same toolbar switch more than once.
    example: spruce --icons --icons
  o Wrote my own getopt() type functions so that it will
    more easily port to other Operating Systems like
    OS/2 which don't have getopt_long().
  o general code cleanups

0.5.5 -> 0.5.6
  o Fixed some segfault causing bugs
  o Added mbox support
  o Added more .po files (more language support)
  o Added more stuff to the configure script (good? bad? I dunno)
  o Added another filter option "All recipients" that checks both 
    To: and CC: header fields
  o You can now choose to view partial headers in the preview pane
  o Made sure that *.mbx files stay mode -rw-------
  o A few minor code cleanups
  o Added some #undef's to stop those annoying MIN/MAX
    redefinition compiler warnings

0.5.4 -> 0.5.5
  o Attachments!
  o CC text field in the composer window
  o You can now set it to remember window size and column sizes
  o Message subject shows up as the message reader window's title
  o major speedups in mailbox reading
  o Fixed a segfault bug with the Options dialog
  o Also fixed a small memleak with the Options dialog
  o code cleanups (fear the glib!)

0.5.3 -> 0.5.4
  o New Options dialog
  o Auto-attach either a random signature or from a file
  o limited mime support (read only)
  o Added a few more random signatures

0.5.2 -> 0.5.3
  o Fixed it so that Spruce no longer downloads messages
    that it already has on disk. (It does this by keeping
    a log of the messages it downloads)
  o Fixed a bug that sometimes messed up the Reply-To addr
  o You may now manipulate multiple messages...
      o Highlight multiple messages
      o Delete multiple messages
      o Expunge multiple messages
      o Copy multiple messages
      o Move multiple messages
    Thanks to Kristoffer for his help ;-)
  o Now formats the date correctly for outgoing mail
    in the form: "Sat, Sep 19 1999 4:45:17 GMT"
  o Drag & Drop capability
  o Font selection for messages is now working
  o code cleanups

0.5.1 -> 0.5.2
  o Fixed a bug that caused Spruce to segfault if the mailbox
    contained a message with a NULL subject.
  o Fixed a bug that caused Spruce to segfault when 
    Forwarding/Replying to messages with NULL subjects
    (Didn't I fix this before?? Somehow I musta gotten some
    old code back in there or something...)
  o Printing should work now...
  o Added more toolbar buttons (Print and Encrypt)
  o Started to add pgp/gpg support (it kinda works)

0.5.0 -> 0.5.1
  o Fixed it so that Deleting/Moving messages should no
    longer cause strange behavior
  o Added multi-language support (I think)
  o Reply's to the "Reply-To" address if:
      1. it exists
      2. it's not the same as the "From" address
  o Added a Print dialog (doesn't do anything yet)

0.4.9f -> 0.5.0
  o Fixed some minor bugs dealing with getting the original
    authors name when Replying/Forwarding. Sometimes, 
    if the original sender didn't put his/her name and
    instead just had "joe@sixpack.org", it might
    appear as "joe@sixpack.or" in the quoted Reply
    or Forward message.
  o Kristoffer sent me a patch for his make_8bit()
    function.
  o Sped up deleting/moving messages by perhaps as much 
    as 50% or so
  o A message with a NULL subject should no longer segfault 
    Spruce when Replying to or Forwarding it.
  o Fixed the bug that allowed a user to append a blank
    account (meaning one or more of the fields was left blank).
  o Added more accelerators
  o Added an Expunge menu item for advanced users who don't
    want deleted messages to appear in the "Deleted items"
    folder.
  o Ran ispell on sprucesig.sample, because it was pointed out
    to me that I can't spell ;-)
  o Sped up some more mailbox parsing thanks to Kristoffer's
    help
  o Added a THANKS file to give special thanks to all the
    people who have helped me so far with Spruce
  o Added a new field to the mail list view (id) so that I
    may easier sort mail messages by certain fields like
    people keep begging me to do ;-)
  o The address book is now sorted alphabetically by Name.
  o You can now sort the email list by clicking on the
    column headers. Clicking on it a second time will
    sort them in reverse order.
  o Added a timeout to the connect() so that it won't lock up
    Spruce for too long if it can't reach the server.

0.4.9e -> 0.4.9f
  o Due to utter boredom, I read through all ~10,000 lines
    of code and found/fixed multiple memory leaks.
    Then, a friend of mine shows me Electric Fence which
    is a debug library to help fix those nasty mem leaks
    so I ended up finding another itty bitty teeny tiny mem
    leak and fixed that one too ;-)
  o Substituted a bunch of my code with a simple rename()
    function so perhaps it'll be a little faster when
    deleting emails from the folders (I said maybe)

0.4.9d -> 0.4.9e
  o Now saves emails with brief header information:
      From:    so and so
      Date:    such and such
      Subject: blah blah blah
    You may thank my parents for their insistence on this
    feature ;-)
  o Ran ispell on the ChangeLog...wow, I REALLY can't spell ;-)
  o Totally recoded the About dialog
  o Now understands 8-bit chars in the header thanks to
    Kristoffer Brnemyr <ztion@swipnet.se>.
  o Changed the Pop3 accounts dialog so that Password was correctly
    spelled ;-)
  o Ugh, fixed a bug that caused Spruce to segfault when ya clicked
    on the OK button on the Accounts form when the Options form
    wasn't opened.

0.4.9c -> 0.4.9d
  o Fixed a bug that only allowed you to add 10 mailboxes
    via the menu option.
  o Hopefully fixed it so that no one should get HELO errors.
    (The people who seemed to get them before were using
    an SMTP server that ran Windows NT - need I say more?)
  o Fixed a bug in the Reply/Forward quoting function so
    that if a user's name does not appear, it will not appear as
    garbly-gook in the body of the Reply/Forward message.
    ex: "On Fri, 6 Aug 1999, E5@!E5@#* wrote:" should
    now always appear correctly.
  o Now has right-click pop-up menus thanks to a patch by
    Ian <ian@shnockered.net>. Thanks Ian, this is really cool ;-)
  o Added a third field (Memo) to the address book thanks to a
    patch from Kang JeongHee <Keizi@mecom.net>
  o Fixed a bug in the Move message code that didn't remove the
    listing of the message from the mailbox list (until it was
    refreshed at least)
  o Fixed a bug in the filter code (it seemed to always copy
    messages to a certain folder rather than filtering correctly)
    This was due to an error in my strstrcase() function
    (which I wrote for portability) - it never returned a NULL
    if it failed.

0.4.9b -> 0.4.9c
  o Added the ability to Copy and Move emails from Mailbox
    to Mailbox. I don't know why I didn't do it before, 
    I had coded the functions but just hadn't added them ;-)

0.4.9a -> 0.4.9b
  o Okay, apparently strcasestr() is *not* a standard function so
    I had to fix that by coding my own quick fix for that.
    Hopefully my quick-fix is portable ;-)
  o Also added a #define for MAXHOSTNAMELEN because for some reason
    it's not defined in RedHat 5.2?? I find that odd, but oh well.

0.4.9 -> 0.4.9a
  o Modified the Reply/Forward features so that it not only adds
    a '>' to the beginning of each quoted line, but also adds
    "On <date>, <person> wrote:" to the top of the quoted body.
  o Added a feature to allow the user to insert a text file into
    the body of a message during composition.
  o Fixed the bug that caused the last line of a signature to appear
    twice.
  o Added a few more "signatures" to sprucesig.sample (gosh I love
    these things ;-)

0.4.8c -> 0.4.9
  o Added filtering capability thanks to a patch sent to me
    by Kristoffer Brnemyr <ztion@swipnet.se>. Thanks Kristoffer!
    I really appreciate this, you did a swell job ;-)

0.4.8b -> 0.4.8c
  o Added word-wrap so that words weren't broken up when reading a
    message/typing one out.
  o Added a Reply-To variable (can only be edited in spruce.conf
    for now)
  o Fixed a bug that most of you would probably never notice. In
    one of the previous versions I had modified the code so that
    I could easily change the max number of pop3 accounts by changing
    1 variable in accounts_t.h by making a #define called MAX_ACCOUNTS
    but I forgot to change the array in rc.c to use MAX_ACCOUNTS
    instead of the hard-coded number I used before (aka 8).
    Thus, if you need more than 16 accounts, just edit accounts_t.h
    and change MAX_ACCOUNTS to the number you need ;-)

0.4.8a -> 0.4.8b
  o Default permissions on *.mbx files is now 0600 and 
    the same for spruce.conf

0.4.8 -> 0.4.8a
  o Now supports up to 16 Pop3 accounts
  o Added a checkbox to select whether or not to have Spruce
    empty your "Deleted items" folder on exit
  o Added a spin dial to allow setting the time interval
    between automatic checking of email
  o All snprintf()'s were changed to g_snprintf()'s
    for easier porting (should now compile fine under
    IRIX and FreeBSD)
  o Fixed a 'bug' with the message quoting function (the
    function that places a "> " before each line in the
    body when replying to/forwarding a message) that
    sometimes caused spruce to segfault

0.4.7b -> 0.4.8
  o Removes stray \r's that those pesky Win/DOS/Mac
    computers like to use from incoming mail ;-)
  o Some "security" updates in pop3io and smtpio to
    prevent buffer overflows - the fix I did should also
    help in porting Spruce to FreeBSD.
  o Deleting an email message no longer annihilates the message,
    rather, it moves it to "Deleted items". If the message
    is already in the "Deleted items", then it expunges
    the message completely.
  o Splash screen idea bit the dust, after all...
    we *do* want spruce to load quickly don't we??
    I mean, that's what we love about it ;-)
  o Hopefully people like this method of quoting an
    email (in Reply and Forward) better than the previous way...
    I mean, after all...I worked hard on it!! *cough cough*
    Er, I mean Elliott Hughes did, thanks Elliott! ;-)
  o Also added was a periodic mail check (Thanks to Elliott)
  o No longer uses a system call to create the home directory
    and now creates ~/.spruce with mode 0700 thanks to 
    a friendly Spruce user ;-)
  o No longer uses a system call to delete a mailbox
  o types.h has been placed before socket.h (I was informed
    that this would allow spruce to compile under FreeBSD)
  o Clicking on the Next or Previous menu/toolbar items no
    longer spawns a message window
  o Next/Previous menu/toolbar items always make sure that the 
    item is in full view
  o Some other minor cosmetic changes were made, but
    were kept very minor because I know how you all
    just love the current interface ;-)

0.4.7a -> 0.4.7b
  o Fixed a bug that saved "Sent items" in the wrong file.

0.4.7 -> 0.4.7a
  o Fixed a bug that affected checking email when clicking on
    toolbar button (did not affect the menu option).

0.4.6 -> 0.4.7
  o Fixed bugs that affected the address book such as when
    deleting contacts and adding new contacts. Neither of these
    functions spawn the composer anymore ;-)
  o Thanks to a Stampede developer, I think we now have nicer
    icons ;-)
  o More general code cleanups/speedups.
  o The Mailbox combo box is no longer editable to keep
    a user from accidently setting a Mailbox that is not existent.
  o Made the icons for the compose window larger, because I for one
    was starting to go blind ;-)
  o Spruce will now look in /etc/sprucesig for random signatures if
    ~/.spruce/sprucesig does not exist.
  o All mentions of Microsoft and/or any of their software
    has been removed from the sprucesig.sample file to
    protect myself and anyone who is associated with Spruce
    from any legal action from Microsoft.

0.4.5 -> 0.4.6
  o Added a function to trim the header information
    off of messages displayed in the preview pane.
    (header information remains for the Message-reader Window)
  o Got the combo box for selecting the mailbox working ;-)
  o A few general code speed-ups (Just when ya thought it couldn't 
    get any faster!)
  o Status bars now close upon finishing retrieving mail
    (Some people like them to stay, others want them to close...)
  o Updated smtpio and pop3io to take more precaution against
    buffer overflows (not that it should have been a problem before)
  o Options dialog will now open at runtime if a config file
    was not present (eg. first time you run spruce)
  o Double clicking on the message will now open it in the viewer.
  o Mailboxes (Folders) can now have spaces in the name.
  o Forward and Reply have been modified (hopefully for the better?)
  o Double clicking on a name/email in the address book is now the
    equivalent of clicking the "Select" button.
  o Bound some key combos to certain menu items (see `spruce --bindings`)

0.4.4 -> 0.4.5
  o Added some more lines to sprucesig.sample (if anyone cares)
  o Added status bars for checking email.
  o Added toolbars to the main and composer windows
  o added some command-line arguments (`spruce --help` for details)

0.4.3 -> 0.4.4
  o Fixed the problem with attaching signatures (random and
    from a file) from the drop-down menu.
  o Forward and Reply work a little more like they should ;-)
    (for "Forward"...perhaps I should come up with a function
    to trim the header information off eh?)
  o I *think* we fixed the bug that caused spruce to segfault
    on it's first run like in v0.4.3 (created spruce.inst shell
    script just in case we're wrong).
  o Now supports sending to multiple recipients instead of just 1
    as in previous releases.
  o The composer window now closes on a successful send
    (this change was made due to popular demand)

0.4.2 -> 0.4.3
  o Fixed the bug where users could add a NULL Mailbox (Folder)
  o Support for infinite Mailboxes (Folders) - not just 10 anymore
  o Added scrollbars to the Mailbox list
  o Added scrollbars to the list of email messages
  o Added scrollbars to the Address book list
  o Added scrollbars to the Pop3 account lists on both the account
    editor and to the Options dialog.
  o Created a new drop-down menu on the main window called "Message".
    You will now find "Delete Message" and "Open" in this menu
    along with a few new ones ;-)
  o Fixed the bug that sometimes added junk pop3 accounts.

0.4.1 -> 0.4.2
  o Fixed the bug that caused a Gtk-Entry warning when the
    composer was started from the drop-down menu.
  o More Installation fixes (nothing to do with the program, just
    the makefile and such)
  o A bad HELO will no longer quit the sending of the email.
    This is just a temporary fix until I figure out how to
    solve this completely - the HELO command works for a good
    percentage of people, but I received an email from one person
    where they had problems...so now he can be happy ;-)
  o Fixed the bug that prevented spruce from being able to delete
    your emails off the server upon fetching them. (It was due to
    spruce using an RSET command after it deleted the messages, thus
    telling the server to ignore the delete commands issued)

0.4.0 -> 0.4.1
  o Fixed the bug where it didn't show the last email message in the
    current Mailbox (Folder...or whatever you call it).
  o Fixed the bug so if it's your first time running Spruce, it
    won't crash on you when you open the Options dialog.
  o Fixed it so you will no longer get compiler warnings similar
    to: "warning: type defaults to `int' in declaration of `i'"
  o Added an AUTHORS file due to popular demand ;-)

0.3.9.1 -> 0.4.0
  o Spruce is now a complete email client and not just a message sender.

0.3.9 -> 0.3.9.1
  o Code optimizations dealing with resolving hostnames and
    various other socket stuff. (rewrote resolve() and 
    Resolve() yet again)

0.3.8 -> 0.3.9
  o Mostly just changes in the code to make it more efficient
    and/or easier to fit pop3io into it for a later release (0.4.0 ?).
    You'll notice that there is some pop3io files but they do not yet
    compile into the main program yet ;-(
  o Moved resolve() into server.c and wrote a new Resolve()
    function to take advantage of struct _server_
    Both work fine and either can be used but if you are
    using my libs to make your own email client, consider
    using Resolve() instead of resolve()

0.3.7 -> 0.3.8
  o And I'm at it again...grrrr. I forgot to bind the vertical scrollbar
    to the Body - fixed that in this version ;-)

0.3.6 -> 0.3.7
  o Okay, I made a major goof - I accidently made 0.3.6 send the
    subject of the message as the body of the message also.
    Thankfully I caught that mistake and have now fixed it.
    Please see PATCH-0.3.6 to see exactly how to fix the
    problem in spruce-0.3.6 so you won't have to download
    spruce-0.3.7 ;-)

0.3.5 -> 0.3.6
  o Spruce will now compile with gtk 1.2.x 
    (will it still compile with gtk 1.0.x?? One may never know...)
  o The About dialog actually does something now :)
  o Added an Address Book dialog...but no code yet
  o Added a Defaults dialog...also no code yet
  o Fixed a "bug" in the code that gave a warning when compiling
    so it's all good now ;-)
