vm (8.0.12-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * This version of VM does not work with Emacs 21 and lower, since those
    versions are missing the custom-autoload function which is used
    invm-autoloads.el.  As a result, no autoloads for vm are defined,
    making vm completely unusable with emacs21. VM no longer byte compiles
    itself for those versions.  Remove support for emacs20 and emacs21 in
    emacsen.{install,remove}, add support for emacs23. Also add an
    NEWS.Debian file to document this change.
    Bug fix: "broken with emacs21 - (void-function custom-autoload)",
    thanks to Sven Joachim                               (Closes: #508543).
  * [c9a55df]: Added missing autoload cookie for
    vm-decode-postponed-mime-message. For good measure, add an autoload
    directive to the vm-init file as well.

vm (8.0.12-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
    [b68c89b] Merge branches 'upstream', 'topic--debian' and 'topic--base64'
    [580b1fe] Merge branch 'upstream' into topic--debian
    [5007800] Merge branch 'upstream' into topic--base64
    [f6416fc] Imported vm-8.0.12
    IMPROVEMENTS:
    + Display version info when calling `vm-version' interactively.
      (Thanks to Ulrich Mueller)
    + Yanking of messages uses the same MIME decoding as the presentation
      now.  See the new variable `vm-mime-yank-attachments' to configure if
      attachments are also yanked.
    + `u-vm-color.el' is bundled and maintained with VM now.  Ulf Jasper
       handed it over to me as he switched to Gnus.
    BUGFIXES:
    + Detect w3 by using `locate-library' instead of checking for a bound
      `w3-about'. (Thanks to Klaus Straubinger)
    + vm.revno.el was not installed anymore b "make install".  (Thanks to
      Ulrich Mueller for reporting)
    + Insert `emacs-version' instead of creating wrong version string for
      XEmacs, i.e. the patch level was the major version. (Thanks to Stephen
      Turnbull)
    + Correctly locate the data directory for the pixmaps when running as a
      XEmacs package.
    + Check for some MIME character sets that may be available in recent
      XEmacs.  (Thanks to Aidan Kehoe for the patch)
    + Some documentation fixes. (Thanks to Michael Ernst for the patches)
    + Fixed infinite loop in vm-mime-encode-words on XEmacs  21.5-b28.
      (Thanks to Aidan Kehoe for the patch)
    + Detect "score" (additionally to "hits") in "X-Spam-Status:" headers in
      `vm-su-spam-score-aux'. (Patch from Michael Ernst)
    + Typo fix in vm-pcrisis.texinfo. (Patch from Michael Ernst)
    + Header encoding was BASE64 instead of QP by default and it was not
      encoding whole words, but only the 8bit chars instead. (Thanks to Ulrich
      Mueller for reporting)
    + MIME text parts interleaved by attachments are now correctly yanked,
      e.g. when replying to a message.
    + Limit the buffer-name length and sanitize the used characters. (Thanks
      to Mark Diekhans for reporting)
    + Do not fail on corrupted address headers.  (Reported by John Covici)
    + Fixed GTK detection and toolbar handling for newer Emacs 22 versions.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 06 Nov 2008 23:16:48 -0600

vm (8.0.11-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. Excerpted changes:
    +  Removed dependency of vm-revno.el to other lisp sources to avoid
       building it in a release bundle.  (Thanks to Ralf Fassel)
    + Added missing documentation for `vm-user-agent', "?" binding and
      'vm-delete-duplicate-messages'.  (Thanks to Alan Wehmann)
    + `vm-message-history.el' now uses a buffer similar to the summary for
      browsing the history.  The buffer replaces the summary buffer when
      present.  Duplicate history entries will be removed.
    + Define and use `vm-replace-in-string' which is `replace-in-string'
      from XEmacs to avoid clashes with other GNU Emacs packages defining
      it differently. Unfortunately, GNU Emacs still does not provide this
      handy function. (Thanks to José Miguel Figueroa)
    + MIME encoding of header will automatically happen now and has been moved
      from `vm-rfaddons.el' to `vm-mime.el' and `vm-vars.el'.
    + Leading lines of a yanked message were accidently taken as headers and
      got removed if `vm-reply-include-presentation' was t.
    + Fixed encoding of headers for trailing 8 bit characters.  (Thanks to
      Lutz Euler for the patch)
    + Decode (QP-)encoded clear text before decrypting it.
    + Use nil as default for `vm-mime-8bit-composition-charset' and thus
      enable proper detection of right charset.  (Thanks to Naoki Saito for
      reporting and debugging)
    + Fixed bug in `vm-mime-display-external-generic' for GNU Emacs 23 causing
      corrupted content in the output file.  The old code has been replaced by
      a call to `vm-mime-send-body-to-file' which avoids duplication and works.
      There has been some special handling for `vm-fsfemacs-mule-p', but the
      actual reason for this was unclear so it has been removed.
    + Correctly handle `vm-enable-addons' being t.
    + Correctly store UTF-8 strings in the X-VM-v5-Data header to avoid
      corruption of summay lines. (Thanks to Yuning Feng for reporting)
    + Correctly encode multibyte subjects. (Thanks to Yuning Feng for the
      patch)
    + Use BASE64 for header encoding when there are special chars not quoted
      by QP normally.  You may configure this by `vm-mime-encode-headers-type'.
    + qp-decode program handles premature end of QP-encoded stream now
      gracefully. (Thanks to Ralf Fassel for the bug report, fix and testing)
    + Added missing newline after "Content-Type" when using the command
      `vm-mime-attach-object-from-message'.  (Thanks to Dan Freed)

vm (8.0.9-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Updated the control file to reflect moving the package to a public git
    repository at http://git.debian.org/git/users/srivasta/debian/vm.git
  * Bug fix: "vm: Error while loading 50vm-init", thanks to Laurent
    Bonnaud. Since the variable is defined in vm-vars, as is the missing
    function, wrap the setting of the pixamp directory in an
    eval-after-load vm-vars.                               (Closes: #475646).

vm (8.0.9-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Correct setting in vm-init.el, based on guidance by  Kurt Hornik. The
    directory setting were wrong, and now we just let the upstream default
    remain for vm-image-directory, and add a setting for
    vm-toolbar-pixmap-directory that reflects the upstream version,
    modified for Debian variations.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 03 Apr 2008 00:07:29 -0500

vm (8.0.9-2) unstable; urgency=high

  * Bug fix: "vm: Installer overwrites vm-init.el before it uses it.",
    thanks to Klaus Reichl.  Thanks to  Sven Joachim for finding the bug,
    and for a patch.                              Closes: #465748,#470275
  * Make sure we delete files from /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/vm on
    removal (these are not conffiles, so can go on removal, instead of
    hanging around until purged).

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 19 Mar 2008 13:38:12 -0500

vm (8.0.9-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
    * Added documentation to `vm-mime-external-content-types-alist' that no
      extra single quotes should be used around %f as the file name is already
      quoted for the shell. (Thanks to Martin Schwenke)
    * Fixed version number generation in release script.  It was broken for
      8.0.8, i.e. it was showing 8.0.x-xemacs-542 instead.  Now also other
      branch related information is stored in the file vm-revno.el.
    * Reactivated "Allow defadvice on function `vm' by recursing on session
      start".  It should work correctly now.
    * Added interactive `vm-pipe-message-to-command-discard-output' and
      the non-interactive `vm-pipe-message-to-command-to-string' for using
      it in own functions.
    * Added `vm-pipe-messages-to-command*' for bulk piping messages to a
      single command, i.e. like saving to a pipe.  This is substantially
      faster than `vm-pipe-message-to-command*' which call the command on
      each message separately.  You may want to use it to feed spamassasin.
    * Modified key bindings for piping messages, i.e. "|" is a prefix key
      now. Type it twice to get the old pipe command, "|d" will call the
      discard the output, just display some infos in the mode line. "|s"
      will call `vm-pipe-messages-to-command' and "|n" will also call it
      but discard the output.
    * Removed vm-easymenu.el and use easymenu.el instead.
    * In `vm-save-message-preview', ask the user if the output file already
      exists instead of silently overwriting it.
    * Moved [Undo] to Dispose menu and [Emacs] to Help menu as these do not
      work in Emacs 22 anymore when on the menu bar.
    * Fixed intermixing of signature and quoted text in reply if
      `vm-reply-include-presentation' is t. (Thanks to Roland Winkler for
      debugging and reporting)
    * Fixed yanking of presentation from wrong folder when folder is virtual.
      (Thanks to Roland Winkler for reporting)
    * Redistributed flag not displayed in presentation buffer mode line.
      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428248 (Thanks to Jonathan
      Underwood for the fix)
    * `vm-submit-bug-report' gets the variables dynamically now and thus does
      not miss new ones or references old ones anymore.
    * Correctly determine the real folder when postponing compositions started
      from a virtual folder. (Thanks to Uday S. Reddy for reporting and
      debugging)
    * Avoid crash when `vm-mouse-set-mouse-track-highlight' is not called
      within a summary buffer or without a valid message pointer.
    * Do not disable modes which do not exist. (Thanks to Uday S. Reddy for
      reporting)
  * Fix compilation of autoloads.                         Closes: 465748

vm (8.0.7-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release                                   Closes:  #435917
    This is a pretty major release. Releases are numbered now
    MAJOR.MINOR.PATCHLEVEL, where MAJOR is increased when fundamental
    changes occur, MINOR for new features and PATCHLEVEL for bugfix
    releases. Better built system based on configure.  Autoloads are
    generated only for those functions marked with the autoload token now,
    which are mainly interactive function. Thus, loading occurs only on
    demand and startup should be faster.

vm (7.19-12) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bug fix: "vm: Byte-compilation very slow under Emacs 22", thanks to
    Tim Cross. This would be a low risk improvement for etch.
                                                          (Closes: #410492).
  * Bug fix: "vm should depend on emacs21 *OR emacs-snapshot*", thanks to
    Philippe Queinnec.  I've decided to add emacs-snapshot to the
    dependencies, since this is likely to be a more popular option as time
    goes on. Also, the package already byte-compiles and otherwise fully
    supports emacs22 (and emacs23, which is what I tend to use now), so
    this is essentially bringing the control file up to speed.
                                                           (Closes: #398877).
  * These two improvements now make emacs-snapshot a full status supported
    version for VM. There is no code change -- the code already supported
    emacs-snapshot, and is known to work. This just allows people to
    uninstall emacs21 (without the control file change, one had to have
    emacs21 and emacs-snapshot both installed for emqacs-snapshot to be
    supported, which is rather silly.

  * Bug fix: "mime-codecs should be dropped", thanks to Manoj Srivastava
    done.                                                 (Closes: #329683).
  * Bug fix: "mime-codecs: base64-decode fails to properly decode many
    valid base64-encoded files", thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor. Instead of
    trying out the patch provided (thanks for that, it was appreciated), I
    decided to instead drop the mime-codecs package entirely, since the
    perl one liners can easily replace them -- and these modules are
    already in perl, an essential package.                (fixes: #338115).

vm (7.19-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Bug fix: "vm: doesn't use debconf for prompting", thanks to Lars
    Wirzenius. Hmm. We don't even have a /usr/lib/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.el
    anymore, and /etc/emacs/site-start.el has not mentioned vm-init since
    at least 2002, and probably a lot longer than that. The chances of
    someone still having a reference to vm-init in there are pretty low
    --- and even then, it should be handled silently. This work around was
    added in 1998; I doubt if such buggy systems still survive -- and if
    people have cruft lying around since 1998, and are trying to install vm
    after 7 years, well, there shall be issues. In any case, we still try
    to fix things silently, and we still issue a diagnostic. I just don't
    think this is worth a debconf note anymore.                (Closes: #333297).

    to Daniel Martins. I am not sure why this works for me, but not for
    the reporter -- but an autoload costs little, so add one to the init
    function.                                               (Closes: #309962).

vm (7.19-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Bug fix: "vm: Please do not discriminate against XEmacs", thanks to
    Dirk Eddelbuettel. Well, back in the mists of time, VM was packaged to
    be byte-compiled for XEmacs, but the XEmacs maintainer at that time
    asked me to cease and desist. Times change, so that is reverted.
                                                          (Closes: #306876).
  * Bug fix: "vm: purge doesn't", thanks to Ian Zimmerman. This should be
    better.                                               (Closes: #303519).

vm (7.19-2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * vm-mime-display-external-generic does not quote spaces when calling
    external commands -- and since VM does not use mailcap, but instead
    uses vm-mime-external-content-type-alist, this fix is relevant.

vm (7.19-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * New variables:
      + vm-stunnel-program-additional-configuration-file
    * added vm-mouse-send-url-to-safari to send URLs to Safari under
      Mac OS X.
    * added docstrings for vm-mime-reader-map-* commands.
    * normalized prefix key description layout in vm-mode docstring.
    * added some missing MIME commands to menu entries.
    * undo change in vm-preview-current-message that required
      vm-auto-decode-mime-messages to be non-nil along with
      vm-display-using-mime before creating the presentation
      copy of a message.  It has the unexpected side-effect of
      breaking 'D' when vm-auto-decode-mime-messages is nil.

  * Removed the obsolete needs="dwww" menu entry. Now we use the

vm (7.18-7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Bug fix: "silent error while loading 50vm-init.el", thanks to Jeff Nye
    If vm-mime-default-face-charsets is unbound, set it to the default
    value.                                               (Closes: #241074).

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri,  2 Apr 2004 12:14:16 -0600

    thanks to Dan Jacobson. Do the same for base64-decode as well.
                                                        (Closes: #222580).

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Wed, 12 Nov 2003 23:15:14 -0600

vm (7.18-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. Excerpted changes:
    * New variables:
      + vm-default-new-folder-line-ending-type
    * vm-mail-internal: use idle timers to run vm-update-composition-buffer-name
      instead of post command hooks
    * vm-decode-mime-layout: always delete a MIME object button after
      doing a type conversion.
    * vm-mail-send: bind coding-system-for-write to match the coding
      system of mail-archive-file-name (if set) so that mail-do-fcc
      writes to the file using the correct line endings.
    * vm-make-tempfile-name, vm-make-tempfile: accept optional
      second argument 'proposed-filename' which will be used if a
      file with that name do not exist in vm-tempfile-directory.
      If such a file exists, then a number and a dash will be prepended
      to the proposed filename and the number will be incremented until no
      such file exists.
    * don't use vm-menu-fsfemacs-image-menu unless vm-use-menus is non-nil.
    * vm-preview-current-message: require vm-auto-decode-mime-messages to
      be non-nil along with vm-display-using-mime before creating the
      presentation copy.  This helps prevent selection of the presentation
      buffer when the user likely needs to do M-x recover-file.

vm (7.17-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
    * New commands:
      + vm-create-imap-folder
      + vm-delete-imap-folder
      + vm-rename-imap-folder
    * vm-edit-message-end: try to positoin the cursor in the message
      window roughly where it was in the edit window.
    * vm-read-imap-folder-name: allow vm-imap-make-session to return
      nil without crashing.  Also, bind vm-imap-ok-to-ask non-nil so
      that vm-imap-make-session will interactively prompt for a
      password.
    * added menu entry to Folder menu for vm-visit-imap-folder.
    * vm-imap-normalize-spec: convert auth method to * instead of the
      IMAP folder name.
    * vm-imap-get-message-flags: fixed flag retrieval so that it
      actually works now.
    * vm-handle-file-recovery-or-reversion: find an IMAP spec for the
      buffer so that the spec is passed to the 'vm' command instead
      of the buffer-file-name.  This fixes a wrong-type-argument
      error under M-x recover-file when done on a IMAP cache folder.
    * tapestry.el: in tapestery-window-edges check for existence of
      face-width and face-height in addition to window-pixel-edges.
    * search for BASE64/QP encoder/decoder programs and set the
      encoder/decoder program variable based on what we find.
    * vm-mf-default-action: if object is convertible to a displayble
      type mention the conversion that will happen in the action
      string.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sun, 13 Jul 2003 15:57:12 -0500

vm (7.16-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
    * New commands:
      + vm-visit-imap-folder
      + vm-visit-imap-folder-other-window
      + vm-visit-imap-folder-other-frame
      + vm-save-message-to-imap-folder
    * New variables:
      + vm-imap-server-list
    * vm-primary-inbox can now be a POP or IMAP mailbox specification.
    * vm-mime-set-xxx-parameter: use the parameter name passed in
      instead of assuming the name is "charset".  The only calls to
      this function passed in "charset" as the name, so this bug
      wasn't affecting anything.
    * vm-decode-mime-encoded-words: do charset conversion if needed.
      Forgot to add this back when vm-mime-charset-converter-alist
      was added.
    * vm-send-mail-and-exit -> vm-mail-send-and-exit in vm-user-agent
      definition.
    * vm-mail-send-and-exit: dropped first arg requirement since the
      argument isn't used anyway.
    * compute POP cache filenames based on the POP mailbox spec with
      the access method as "pop" and the authentication method and
      port as asterisks.  This prevents visiting the wrong file if
      the user starts accessing a POP mailbox through a different
      port or using a different access or authentication method.
      Automatically migrate the old cache files to the new scheme as
      we go.
    * fixed convert -page typos.
    * vm-set-redistributed-flag: fourth arg of vm-set-xxx-flag
      call corrected to be vm-set-redistributed-flag instead of
      vm-set-forwarded-flag.
    * IMAP BYE responses are always untagged; changed code to match.

vm (7.15-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
   * Makefile: filter echo's output through tr to avoid CRs
     under Cygwin.
   * Makefile: Use '>' instead of '>>' on first write to vm-autoload.el
     to truncate the file otherwise it will grow each time it is updated.
   * vm-mime-attach-message: arrange for forwarded flag of each
     attached message to be set when the composition is sent.
   * vm-decode-mime-encoded-words: do charset conversion if needed.
     Forgot to add this back when vm-mime-charset-converter-alist
     was added.
   * when cropping images call 'convert' with -page to avoid having
     some kind of margin takcked on to the image.  The strange
     margin seems to be applied to GIFs but not JPGs.  No idea why.
   * fixed some defcustom variable declarations.
   * vm-mime-reader-map-save-file: return the file name to which the object
     was saved.
   * vm-mime-burst-digest: remove blank lines at the beginning of
     message/rfc822 bodies in a multipart/digest object, since they
     most likely indicate an improperly packed digest rather than a
     message with no headers.
   * vm-make-tempfile: use vm-octal to clarify file mode setting.
   * vm-make-image-strips: when building the script for incremental
     display, don't quote the filenames.  DJGPP cmdproxy.exe doesn't
     interpret single quotes and using double quotes is pointless.
     VM's arguments to 'convert' don't need quoting anyway.
   * use vm-pop-check-connection to check POP connections before
     trying to read data from them.  The checker will signal an
     error if the connection is closed or the process associated
     with the connection has exited.
   * use vm-imap-check-connection to check IMAP connections before
     trying to read data from them, The checker will signal an error
     if the connection is closed or the process associated with the
     connection has exited.

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
     * moved (provide ...) to bottom of .el files.
     * Made the vm-undo command undo everything the last command did.
       E.g. vm-undo after vm-kill-subject undoes all of the related
       deletes instead of just one of them.  vm-undo-boundary is only
       called from vm-add-undo-boundaries now.  vm-add-undo-boundaries
       is called from post-command-hook.


 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@acm.org>  Sat, 29 Mar 2003 00:07:15 -0600

vm (7.13-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
    * vm-pop-make-session: use new stunnel configuration code
      introduced in VM 7.11.  This was only installed in
      vm-imap-make-session previously.
    * create MIME layout from plist instead raw vector.  layout strut
      is still a vector.
    * save original layout when doing a layout conversion so that if
      the object needs to be deleted we still ahve the correct object
      endpoint in the folder buffer.  In the old code the endpoints in
      the converted object buffer would be used in the folder buffer
      with disastrous results.
    * '(vm-marker -> (vm-marker in vm-mime-parse-entity.


 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@acm.org>  Wed, 19 Mar 2003 22:59:38 -0600

vm (7.11-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
    * New variables:
      + vm-mime-forward-local-external-bodies
    * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: if object is in a buffer,
      write the buffer out to disk and insert the file contents instead
      of copuying buffer to buffer.  This avoids the trademark \201
      data corruption.
    * vm-su-thread-indent: check for vm-summary-show-threads non-nil
      before calling vm-th-thread-indentation.
    * vm-summary-compile-format-1: added %(..%) format groups.
    * don't forward Content-Length header.
    * use results of CAPABILITY command to check for authentication methods
      before trying to use them.
    * use results of CAPABILITY command to decide whether to use
      BODY.PEEK vs. RFC822.PEEK.
    * vm-mime-attach-object-from-message: move window point to
      beginning of the line after the inserted attachment if the
      compositoin buffer is being displayed in a window.
    * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: set c-t-e to "7bit" if it is nil.
    * vm-mime-fetch-url-with-programs: erase the work buffer between
      tries of various URL fetch programs; this handles the case
      where an URL fetcher outputs part of the data and then dies.
    * added support for the `fetch' and `curl' URL fetch programs for
      message/external-body.
    * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: call vm-mime-parse-entity
      twice for already MIME'd objects.
      vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition similarly modified.
    * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: don't automatically
      base64-encode non-composite non-text objects that already have
      MIME headers.  Use vm-mime-transfer-encode-layout on them
      instead to produce the correct encoding.
      vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition similarly modified.
    * dropped support for url-w3 retrieval method.  It's interface too
      crusty to continue using given the wide availabity of external
      programs that do the job.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-message/external-body: pulled
      retrieval guts out and put into vm-mime-retrieve-external-body.
    * added support for simple image manipulations, supported by
      Imagemagick's `convert' program.  Use mouse button 3 on an
      image to see what you can do.
    * added Konqueror to vm-menu-url-browser-menu.
    * added option to send to the X clipboard to vm-menu-url-browser-menu.
    * vm-menu-url-browser-menu: add third element to clipboard and
      Konqueror entries--- VM's menu code under GNU Emacs requires it.
    * treat device-type `gtk' like `x' under XEmacs so that
      VM running on GTK-XEmacs will use window system features.
    * vm-imap-move-mail: set use-body-peek after retrieving the
      CAPABILITY results. (oops)
    * Makeflie: default install target now installs the .el files.
    * added support for version 4 of stunnel.
    * fixed check for usability of uncompface's -X flag, needed
      symbol to be unquoted.
    * fixed check for stunnel 4, check for non-zero exit code instead
      of string, moved check to the time when stunnel is first run.
    * vm-stunnel-configuration-args: fixed reversed v3/v4 logic.
    * vm-stunnel-configuration-file: reuse the stunnel configuration
      tempfile.
    * vm-parse: fourth arg limits the number of matches before
      returning.
    * vm-parse: after we quit matching add everything after the last
      match to the list that is returned, but do this ONLY if the
      fourth arg 'matches' was specified.
    * compute POP cache filenames based on the POP mailbox spec with
      the password as an asterisk.  This prevent visiting the wrong
      file if the user has the password in the spec and later changes
      their password.  Automatically migrate the old password-based cache
      files to the new scheme as we go.
    * vm-pop-make-session: parse POP mailbox spec in a way that
      permits colons in the user's password.
    * install .el files before .elc files to avoid "source file newer
      than compiled file" problems.
    * added ] to char class exclusion in mailto spec in vm-url-regexp
      to help with MS EXchange's [mailto:foo] syntax.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@acm.org>  Thu, 20 Feb 2003 11:02:50 -0600

vm (7.08-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
    * New variables
      + vm-mime-ignore-missing-multipart-boundary
      + vm-url-browser-switches
    * vm-mime-attach-object-from-message: decode object after stuffing it
      into the work buffer.  Two reasons: (1) the composition encoding
      code doesn't expect base64 or QP encoded objects and will encode
      them again, and (2) we shouldn't trust that the original object was
      encoded properly so we should re-encode it since we're sending it.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-multipart/alternative: a badly formed
      mesage may cause VM to find no message parts so don't call
      vm-decode-mime-layout unless best-layout is non-nil.
    * vm-su-subject: compress \n[ \t]* to a single space.
    * README: Added (vm) to the example VM entry in the 'dir' file.
      Apparently the old entry won't work without it anymore.
    * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: error/error MIME layout needs to be
      length 16; added a nil.  Really need to macroize creation
      of the layout object someday.
    * vm-recover-file: call recover-file with call-interactively
      instead of apply.
    * vm-revert-buffer: call revert-buffer with call-interactively
      instead of apply.
    * vm-decode-mime-layout: check if layout has been converted
      and don't try to convert it again if so.
    * vm-vs-or, vm-vs-and: check existence of selector function and
      signal error if not found.
    * vm-md5-region: accept " -" and " *-" before the md5 checksum
      because md5sum stupidly produces extra output on some systems.
    * vm-imap-end-session: trying reading the response to the LOGOUT
      command and see if we start hanging in some environments.
    * vm-imap-make-session: don't query for passwor dif the
      authentiation method is "preauth".
    * vm-visit-virtual-folder: select the message corresponding to
      the real message the user used as a basis for this folder, if
      there was one.  Only honor the vm-jump-* variables if
      there's no correspoinding real message to use.
    * vm-compose-mail: run mail-citation-hook or mail-yank-hooks or
      the normal VM default action after yanking the message text.
      Always position point in the body before running the yank
      action.  Don't assume the yank action is smart enough to
      position point correctly before inserting the text.
    * vm-recognize-imap-maildrops,vm-recognize-pop-maildrops: changed
      regexp to allow colons in the last field.
    * dropped single quotes in const choice values in defcustom for
      vm-mime-alternative-select-method.
    * Makefile: use \015 instead of \r with tr due to bug in Solaris
      8's tr which removes r's.
    * vm-get-mail-itimer-function: correct use of timer-set-time; set
      new firing time to now + vm-auto-get-new-mail instead of now
      with a delta of vm-auto-get-new-mail, to avoid having
      the timer expire repeatedly in the same second.  Similar change
      in vm-check-mail-itimer-function which support vm-mail-check-interval.
      Similar change in vm-flush-itimer-function which supports vm-flush-interval.
    * vm-decode-mime-message: vm-preview-read-messages ->
      vm-preview-lines so that message previewing is turned off for
      the 'raw' and 'all buttons' displays.
    * vm-mail-send: bind select-safe-coding-system-function to nil
      during call to mail-send to prevent Emacs from prodding user
      about the FCC coding system.  The coding system used should be
      raw-text and VM sets buffer-file-coding-system to that.
    * vm-stuff-attributes: don't clear modflag if stuffing for another
      folder, since the information stuffed in that case is missing
      the deleted flag if that flag was set.
    * use defconst to set vm-faked-defcustom so that the checking
      works correctly if vm-vars.el is loaded twice.
    * vm-mime-parse-entity: find multipart boundaries, then recurse
      into parts.  This satisfies the new rule in RFC 2046 that outer
      level multipart boundaries be recognized at any level of inner
      nesting.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-file: removed let-binding of variable file
      which was shadowing the function parameter of the same name.
      This should make the function not ask about a filename even
      when one has already been provided.
    * define vm-folder-history as a function that returns t so that
      when it is passed as the sixth arg to read-file-name under
      Emacs 21 it does not cause void-function to be signaled when
      completion is attempted.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-folder: force conversion to target folder's
      type since the user doesn't know what type we're using in the
      temp folder.
    * vm-save-message: dno't try to honor vm-delete-after-saving if
      the folder is read-only.
    * vm-delete-duplicate-messages: compute hash on real folder
      contents rather than virtual copy.  Fixes utterly brokwn
      behavior when run on a virtual folder.

  * Use which, not command -v.
  * New upstream. excerpted changes:
     * vm-sort-messages: move first call of
       vm-update-summary-and-mode-line out to callers.  Threading boks
       if we call it in here.
     * vm-assimilate-new-messages: resume calling
       vm-update-summary-and-mode-line to clear the decks before
       thread sorting.
     * vm-toggle-threads-display: start calling
       vm-update-summary-and-mode-line to clear the decks before
       thread sorting.
     * vm-save-folder,vm-write-file: support
       vm-default-folder-permission-bits here,
       since a folder might be created when it is saved.
     * vm-save-message,vm-save-message-sans-headers: use the target
       folder's line ending coding system for saves.  If the target
       doesn't exist use the local system's default.
     * vm-write-string: don't set an explicit coding system for writes,
       use the ambient value.
     * vm-sort-messages: call vm-update-summary-and-mode-line to clear
       the decks before sorting.
     * vm-mail-internal: UNder FSF Emacs set the coposition buffer
       coding system to 'raw-text' which should stop write-region from
       question the coding system inside mail-do-fcc.

  * New upstream bug fixing release. Excerpted change:
    * New variables:
      + vm-default-folder-permission-bits
    * Makefile: added install-el target.
    * always set mode-popup-menu; it's value should not depend on the
      value of vm-popup-menu-on-mouse-3.
    * vm-stuff-folder-attributes: added status messages.
    * vm-mime-discard-layout-contents: call vm-set-modflag-of on the
      modified message.
    * vm-preview-composition: add a newline at end of the preview
      buffer if the composition lacks one.
    * vm-url-decode-buffer: fixed brain-o; bind case-fold-search to t
      instead of nil.
    * use new vm-octal function instead of writing out UNIX permission
      bits in decimal.
    * defcustom :type fixes.
    * added "image" to default value of vm-auto-displayed-mime-content-types.
    * vm-mime-should-display-internal: ignore Content-Disposition as
      it has no bearing on whether an object is displayed internally.
    * vm-assimilate-new-messages: build threads very early if
      vm-summary-show-threads is non-nil.  Don't run
      vm-update-summary-and-mode-line before sorting threads--- this
      should no longer be necessary thanks to the change to to
      vm-set-numbering-redo-start-point.
    * vm-set-numbering-redo-start-point: compare message structs
      instead of list conses.
    * vm-unthread-message: only unthread if threads have been built
      in a particular message's buffer.
    * vm-thread-list: keep track of the youngest member of a thread.
    * vm-sort-compare-thread: sort threads by youngest member instead
      of by oldest member.  Also sort thread siblings by date instead
      of by message-id; sort by messge-id if dates are equal (rare).

vm (7.04-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * New commands:
      + vm-mime-attach-object-from-message (bound to $ a)
    * New variables:
      + vm-mime-ignore-composite-type-opaque-transfer-encoding
    * fixed problem with a repeated char being displayed after an
      X-Face when a non-MIME message is reselected.
    * Makefile: remove CRs from the output of make-autoloads.  Emacs
      when run under Cygwin apparently emits them.
    * vm-session-initialization: create gui-button-face under XEmacs
      if it does not exist.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: don't use W3 if
      vm-mime-use-w3-for-text/html is nil.
    * recognize 'mac' as a window system with mouse, image, and
      multi-font support (FSF Emacs only).
    * put vm-update-composition-buffer-name on post-command-idle-hook
      instead of post-command-hook if the idle hook is available for
      use.
    * vm-menu-vm-menu: added commas to variable refernece so they
      would be evalled in the backquote context.
    * changed hook defcustoms to use 'hook instead of '(list function).
    * vm-read-index-file: do thread sort if necessary since
      vm-assimilate-new-messages isn't going to do it.
    * default vm-thread-obarray and vm-thread-sort-obarray to non-nil
      values so that if they are used as obarrays before
      initialization an error will be signaled.
    * vm-mime-pipe-body-to-queried-command: prompt with "Pipe object
      to command:" instead of "Pipe to command:".
    * make sure select-message-coding-system is fbound before overriding
      its definition.  Apparently early Emacs 20 versions do not define
      it.
    * vm-imap-read-object: move point past closing double quote to
      fix parsing problem that caused VM to hang.
    * vm-mime-display-button-xxxx: always insert the button, even we
      have no method for displaying the MIME object.

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
     * New variables:
       + vm-mime-use-w3-for-text/html
     * new possible values for vm-mime-alternative-select-method:
       (favorite ...) and (favorite-internal ...).
     * vm-visit-pop-folder: use value of vm-last-visit-pop-folder if
       interactive user entered an empty string as the folder.
     * vm-mail-send: bind sendmail-coding-system to the binary coding
       system and bind mail-send-nonascii to t so that mail-send will
       leave us alone.
     * redefine select-message-coding-system if it is fbound and we're
       running FSF Emacs MULE.  It doesn't like no-conversion as a
       coding system, so we get it out of the way.
     * define vm-image-too-small properly as an error condition.
     * vm-scroll-forward-one-line, vm-scroll-backward-one-line: accept
       a numeric prefix arg.
     * vm-setup-ssh-tunnel: use copy-sequence on vm-ssh-program-switches
       to avoid corrupting the list tail with nconc.
     * vm-mime-can-convert-0: always return the conversion that
       produces an internally displayable type if there is one.
       Fallback to the externally displayable type if there is none
       that can be displayed internally.
     * vm-mime-can-convert-0: don't return a match when the target
       type matches the original type.
     * vm-mime-display-internal-image-xemacs-xxxx: wrap image extents
       around spaces instead of newlines.  Adjust newline insertion
       code accordingly.  Create image strips twice the default font
       height to avoid having to match the font ascent value.  Don't
       use vm-monochrome-face except on XBM images.
     * vm-display-image-strips-on-extents,
       vm-display-some-image-strips-on-extents: Don't use
       vm-monochrome-face except on XBM images.
     * support completion-ignore-case variable.
     * block interactive use of vm-expunge-pop-messages in a POP
       folder.  It's meant for folder linked to POP spool files, not
       POP folders.
     * use display-planes function to determine if Emacs 21 is running
       on a "colorful" display.
     * put image/xpm ahead of image/pbm in vm-mime-image-type-converter-alist.

  * Add a patch from Ian Jackson that creates a new interactive virtual
    folder selector `sexp', which prompts for an string, asking for an
    S-expression.  You type in a string, which gets turned into a LISP
    object with `read', and used as the actual selector.     closes: Bug#122450
  * New upload fixes image display bug for emacs21.          closes: Bug#123990
  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * New commands:
      + vm-visit-pop-folder
      + vm-visit-pop-folder-other-window
      + vm-visit-pop-folder-other-frame
    * New variables:
      + vm-pop-folder-alist
      + vm-pop-folder-cache-directory
    * vm-parse-date: fixed search to allow monthday digits to occur
      at the beginning of a string.
    * vm-get-mail-itimer-function: skip buffer if bm-block-new-mail
      is set.  This avoids vm-get-spooled-mail signaling "can't get
      new mail until you save this folder" later.  Also check for
      mail block and folder read-only before doing the expensive file
      stat checks.
    * vm-get-image-dimensions: don't search for the filename in
      the 'identify' output.  Apparently 'identify' will sometimes
      substitute a different filename than we expect.  Instead
      just search for a space and then start looking for the image
      dimensions from that point.
    * moved setting of vm-folder-type in the POP trace buffer from
      vm-pop-move-mail to vm-pop-make-session so that all callers get
      of vm-pop-make-session get the feature.
    * vm-assimilate-new-messages: check for new-messages non-nil
      before attempting some things.  Makes the function a bit more
      efficient if we call it and no new messages are found.
    * vm-pop-report-retrieval-status,
      vm-imap-report-retrieval-status: report "post processing" if
      'need' value is nil.
    * vm-pop-retrieve-to-crashbox -> vm-pop-retrieve-to-target
    * vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: use new "post processing" reporting.
    * vm-pop-retrieve-to-target: use new "post processing" reporting.
    * vm-expunge-pop-messages: record which messages were expunged by
      stuffing nil into the car of the cell in vm-pop-retrieved-messages.
      At the end strip out all the nils, leaving the data for messages
      that we had problems expunging from the POP server.
    * in vm-stuff-* functions check for vm-message-list non-nil
      instead of vm-message-pointer.
    * vm-pop-end-session: check whether the process is still open or
      running before attempting to send the QUIT command.  Also check
      whether the process buffer is still alive before killing it.
    * vm-get-spooled-mail: gutted, with most of it going into
      vm-get-spooled-mail-normal.  Calls vm-pop-synchronize-folder
      for folders that use the POP access method.
    * vm-session-initialization: when deciding whether to create the
      vm-image-placeholder face check for image-type-available-p
      being fbound, not vm-image-type-available-p.
    * use <vm-image-face> instead of <face> as the name of the faces
      used to display images under Emacs 19 and 20.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-image-xemacs-xxxx: insert a newline
      before the image if point is at the same position as the
      beginning of the text portion of the message.  Otherwise
      there is no visible separation between the image and the
      message headers.
    * vm-pop-report-retrieval-status,
      vm-imap-report-retrieval-status: record in the statblob the fact
      that some status was reported.
    * vm-pop-stop-status-timer, vm-imap-stop-status-timer: if any
      status was reported, do (message "") to clear the echo area.

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:

      * New variables:
        + vm-imagemagick-identify-program

      * vm-do-folders-summary: bind default-directory to the directory
        names when checking for subdirectories amongst its children
        with vm-delete-directory-names.
      * vm-get-image-dimensions: use the ImageMagick program 'identify'
        instead of 'convert' to get the image dimensions.
      * vm-thread-list: set done to t if we've run out of references
        and we're not threading by subject (vm-thread-using-subject ==
        nil).  Fixes infloop.
      * use the vm-monochrome-image face for image glyphs instead of vm-xface
        under XEmacs.
      * use a face with a background stipple (vm-image-placeholder)
        on the spaces used to display images in FSF Emacs 19.
      * vm-display-image-strips-on-overlay-regions: store modified
        flag value after the process buffer is selected, otherwise
        we're recording the state of the wrong buffer.
      * vm-mime-display-internal-image-fsfemacs-21-xxxx: If the image
        strip is the same height as the font the image ascent ratio
        must match font ascent ratio else the image strips will be
        displayed with gaps between them.  There's currently no way to
        get font ascent information under Emacs 21.  Use strips that
        are twice the font height and a 50/50 ascent ratio to avoid
        this problem.
      * vm-make-image-strips: remainder math was wrong, fixed   Use new
        remainder math in the sync branch.  Use vm-make-tempfile
        instead of vm-make-tempfile-name.
      * when cutting images into strips give 'convert' an explicit
        target type.  Otherwise it might choose some unknown new type
        that Emacs can't display.
      * vm-parse-date: simplified the search for the monthday and the
        year, hopefully reducing the problems with confusing 2-digit
        years and monthdays.
      * vm-thread-list: check and set 'oldest-date property on all the
        messages.
      * vm-mail-internal: eval the value of mail-signature and insert
        the result if its value is not nil, t or a string.  Also, if
        mail-signature is a string, subject the result to the same
        check for a proper signature separator.
  * The new sources are actually in the package.             closes: Bug#120476
  * Also set  vm-image-directory to the images location      closes: Bug#120494

vm (6.98-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * New variables:
      + vm-mime-use-image-strips
      + vm-imagemagick-convert-program
      + vm-mime-charset-converter-alist
    * inline image display support for Emacs 19 and Emacs 20.
    * vm-md5-region: deal with the " -\n" that md5sum appends to the
      checksum output when summing stdin.
    * vm-edit-message: set buffer-offer-save to t so that if user
      types C-x C-c they won't lose their changes in the message edit
      session without warning.
    * vm-spool-files: remove any directories from vm-spool-files
      that we slurped from environmental variables.  There was a case
      where a user's MAIL variable was set to /var/mail.  I don't know
      how widespread this practice is.
    * when initializing vm-temp-file-directory check for C:\TEMP
      before C:\.
    * vm-setup-ssh-tunnel: instead of sleeping for a bit and hoping
      that's long enough to establish a connection, read some output
      from the tunnel before returning so we know that the connection
      is established.  vm-ssh-remote-c0mmand has to provide the output,
      so its default value has been changed to produce output.
    * vm-frame-loop: don't reset the starting frame placeholder unless
      the starting frame was really deleted.  Fixes an infloop when
      quitting out of VM and the VM summary is visible in multiple
      frames.
    * try to use the ImageMagick 'convert' program (if available) to
      convert image types that Emacs can't display internally into
      images that Emacs can display.
    * support the unregistered image/xbm, image/xpm and image/pbm
      types, so that we can autoconvert unsupported image types to
      these types under an Emacs that's compiled with minimal image
      support.
    * use w3m to retrieve URLs if specified in vm-url-retrieval-methods.
    * make layout cache be the property list of a symbol instead of
      an alist.
    * use vm-make-tempfile in more places to produce private tempfiles
      instead of vm-make-tempfile-name.
    * vm-preview-composition: mnuge message separators that appear in
      the message body.  Use MMDF for the temp folder type.
    * all your base no longer are belong to us.

  * Fixed typo in description.                               closes: Bug#115819
  * Remove files created on the fly as well.                 closes: Bug#117140
  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
     * New variables:
       + vm-mime-require-mime-version-header
     * SSL support for IMAP and POP.
     * SSH tunnel support for IMAP and POP.
     * uninstall toolbar goop from vm-mode-map under FSF Emacs if we're
       creating a frame and vm-use-toolbar is nil.
     * don't use a heuristic background map in the toolbar image spec
       for the MIME icon.
     * vm-make-tempfile-name: add a random elemnt to VM's temporary
       file name.
     * vm-pop-cleanup-region, vm-imap-cleanup-region: don't emit
       CRLF->LF status messages.  Say something about post-processing
       in the normal status message instead.
     * vm-mail-to-mailto-url: do session initialization stuff so that
       the function can be called from gnuclient.  This is apparently
       useful for driving VM from a web browser that allows use of an
       external mailer.
     * vm-mime-encode-composition: undo buffer changes if an
       error occurs during encoding.
     * rename certain composition buffers on the fly as the recipient
       headers change to reflect the new primary recipient(s).
     * vm-submit-bug-report: call vm-session-initialization so the all
       necessary goop is loaded, rather than doing a few 'require'
       calls.  This fixed the bug in the VM XEmacs package where
       calling vm-submit-bug-report immediately after starting XEmacs
       would cause (void-function vm-display) to be signaled.
     * vm-th-parent: when extracting the parent message ID from the
       In-Reply-To header, use the longest ID found, instead of the
       first ID found.  Store the result in the references slot in the
       message struct, since that slot must be empty otherwise we
       would be ignoring In-Reply-To.
     * vm-thread-list: remove the clock skew loop-recovery-point
       heuristic; seems to cause more breakage than it fixes.
     * vm-mime-display-internal-image-fsfemacs-xxxx: use a unibyte buffer
       as a work buffer when unpacking an image file.  Apparently needed
       to avoid the evil \201 corruption under Emacs 21.
     * accept 'name' parameter as suggested filename for all MIME
       types.  Old broken software that sends this stuff will never go
       away and complaints about it will never end.
     * default vm-use-lucid-highlighting non-nil only if (require
       'highlight-headers) doesn't signal an error.
     * vm-md5-region: call the MD5 program directly instead of using
       sh -c.
     * vm-pop-md5: call the MD5 program directly instead of using
       sh -c.
     * vm-check-for-spooled-mail, vm-get-spooled-mail: bind
       case-fold-search to nil for comparisons against vm-recognize-*.

vm (6.96-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
     * print-autoloads: handle fset calls.  There are paths through
       the code that reach functions that are to be defined by fset
       but lack autoload definitions.  print-autoloads now creates
       autoload definitions for them.
     * vm-mime-encapsulate-messages: pluralization fix in MIME digest
       preamble.  Don't output "messages" if there's only one message in
       the digest.
     * vm-display-startup-message: update copyright date.  Use
       \251 under XEmacs to show the c-in-circle copyright glyph.
       Can't rely on FSF Emacs being setup to display it.
     * vm-mime-display-internal-application/octet-stream: honor
       setting of vm-mime-delete-after-saving.
     * vm-imap-move-mail: don't emit warning messages if BODY.PEEK
       fails--- no one cares.  Don't retry BODY.PEEK after it fails
       the first time, it will never work.  Use RFC822.PEEK henceforth
       within this IMAP session.
     * vm-toolbar-support-possible-p: check whether the variable
       tool-bar-map is bound.  Apparently tool-bar-mode is fboun
       even when there is no toolbar support (e.g. under Windows).
     * moved guts of vm-discard-cached-data to vm-discard-cached-data-internal.
     * vm-mime-attach-message: corrected prompt in the "attach from
       other folder" case.
     * vm-summary-sprintf: decode encoded words in the final string if
       we're not producing a tokenized result and vm-display-using-mime
       is not nil.
     * vm-mail-to-mailto-url: support full RFC2368 mailto URL spec.
     * vm-pop-send-command: use one process-send-string call instead
       of two, which should saves some packet overhead at the
       expense of more string consing.
     * vm-imap-send-command: use one process-send-string call instead
       of three, which should saves some packet overhead at the
       expense of more string consing.
     * vm-imap-send-command: allow sending a string without a tag.
       Also allow sending a string with a caller specified tag.
     * vm-imap-make-session: don't send a tag with the CRAM-MD5
       challenge response.
     * vm-do-summary: reuse the mouse-track overlays if possible,
       instead of generating a new one each time.  The old ones
       apparently are never reclaimed by Emacs until the buffer is
       killed and degrade editing performance in that buffer.
     * vm-imap-ask-about-large-message: require simple "OK" response
       after fetching headers instead of "OK FETCH".  The "FETCH" part
       may never come and isn't required.
     * vm-save-folder: sweep though virtual folder associated with the
       real folder and set their buffer modified flags to nil if they
       are none of their real folders are modified.
     * vm-thread-list: don't the first and last element of a multielement
       thread list to be the same message-ID.  This is a thread loop that
       previously was previously undetected.
     * vm-thread-list: remember the position in the thread list where
       we first threaded using subject information and reset the
       thread list to that point if we encountered a message ID we've
       seen before.  This is a heuristic to try to trim off
       parents-by-subject that are only parents due to clock skew.

vm (6.95-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed the info install and remove sectrions for vm.      closes: Bug#106847
  * New upstream version.
  * Excerpted changes:
    * New variables:
      + vm-mime-attachment-auto-suffix-alist
    * vm-guess-digest-type: require a line consisting of 30 dashes in
      addition to the 70 dashes line before guessing RFC 1153.
    * vm-md5-region: add third arg that prevents re-search-forward
      from signalling an error if it fails.
    * vm-toolbar-update-toolbar: don't use the 'getmail' icon
      as the helper button if 'getmail' is already on the toolbar.
    * vm-toolbar-update-toolbar: don't use the 'mime icon
      as the helper button if 'mime' is already on the toolbar.
    * vm-mime-attach-message: if invoked on marked messages (C-c C-v
      M N C-c C-m) attach the marked messages in the parent folder as
      a digest.
    * vm-mail-mode-remove-tm-hooks: remove global TM/SEMI hooks from
      mail-setup-hook and mail-send-hook if vm-send-using-mime is
      non-nil.  Previously VM tried to remove the hooks locally but
      that doesn't work.
    * fixed negative Content-Length computation problem
      - vm-find-leading-message-separator,
        vm-find-trailing-message-separator: new type 'baremessage
        means go to point-max.
      - vm-pop-retrieve-to-crashbox, vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: use
        'baremessage as old type during header conversion.  Narrow to
        region around message during this conversion so that folder
        traversal functions can safely go to point-max without moving
        past the end of the message.
    * vm-pop-make-session, vm-imap-make-session: don't sleep for 2
      seconds after reporting a bad password unless the function was
      called synchronously, i.e. not from a timer.
    * vm-check-mail-itimer-function, vm-get-mail-itimer-function,
      vm-flush-cached-data: when traversing the buffer list, check
      whether a buffer is still alive before selecting it.  Because
      the loop calls input-pending-p, a timer or process-filter could
      have killed one of the buffers.
    * vm-delete-duplicate: remove duplicate addresses case
      insensitively  This is still sort of wrong, in that the only
      the right hand side of the address should be treated this way.
      But doing the right thing is hard.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-image-xemacs-xxxx: make the image
      extent be 'start-open' so that it is moved forward when text is
      inserted at its position.  This fixes the image doubling
      problem if a mssage containing only an image is previewed with
      vm-mime-deocde-for-preview set non-nil.
    * vm-narrow-for-preview: added kludge to prevent images and button
      art from being displayed at the edge of a preview cutoff during
      MIME decode-for-preview.  Everything beyond the cutoff is shifted
      forward one character during MIME preview.  (XEmacs only for now, but
      might be needed for FSF Emacs 21).
    * vm-mime-encapsulate-messages, vm-rfc934-encapsulate-messages,
      vm-rfc1153-encapsulate-messages: do a better job of protecting
      MIME headers.  Sort the MIME headers to the top of the message
      then skip past them before applying the user's header filter
      variables.

      before trying to use one.  Versions of XEmacs prior to 21.4
      don't allow expressions as item names.

vm (6.93-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version.
  * Excerpted changes:
      * New variables:
        + vm-folder-file-precious-flag
      * added CRAM-MD5 as an authentication method for IMAP.
      * vm-su-do-date: interpret 2-digit years in the RFC-822 matching
        case as 20XX if year starts with 0-6.
      * vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: skip spaces in addition to
        newlines that occur after a separator line.  A digest has been
        observed with that kind of deformity.
      * treat enable-local-eval as we do enable-local-variables--- always
        bind it to nil.
      * vm: don't bind vm-auto-decode-mime-messages non-nil during
        initial message preview if it is nil.
      * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: dropped (sleep-for 2).  No one
        cares enough about the "Need W3 to inline HTML" message to wait 2
        seconds afterward.
      * added menu entry to allow MIME objects to be converted to
        another type and displayed.  The new type is determined by
        vm-mime-type-converter-alist.
      * added koi8-r to vm-mime-mule-charset-to-coding-alist (XEmacs only).
      * vm-pop-read-list-response: check for nil return of
        vm-pop-read-response before using return value.
      * vm-pop-read-stat-response: check for nil return of
        vm-pop-read-response before using return value.
      * vm-encode-coding-region: use unwind-protect to make sure (well
        more likely) that the work buffer always gets killed if it has
        been created.
      * vm-decode-coding-region: use unwind-protect to make sure (well
        more likely) that the work buffer always gets killed if it has
        been created.
      * vm-mime-convert-undisplayable-layout: put object buffer on
        garbage list sooner to make rarer the situation where the
        buffer never gets deleted.
      * Makefile: remove function definition of vm-its-such-a-cruel-world
        after it is run.
      * vm-md5-region: if vm-pop-md5-program exits non-zero, signal an
        error.  Also if the work buffer is not at least 32 bytes long,
        signal an error.  This prevents naive callers from assumption all
        is well and using a possibly empty string as an MD5 hash.
      * vm-md5-region: check the MD5 digest returned for non-hex-digit
        characters and signal an error if any are found.
      * vm-get-file-buffer: use find-buffer-visiting if it is fbound.
      * vm-build-threads: fixed loop that removed child messages from a
        parent when better information about a child's parent is found.
        Previously the loop attempted to remove the same message from
        the parent over and over.
      * vm-build-threads: gather thread data using References and
        In-Reply-To for all messages before using the Subject header.
        This helps prevent the case where References says A is the
        parent of B but because of clock skew B is older than A, which
        can lead to B being considered the parent of A if A and B have
        the same subject and vm-thread-using-subject is non-nil.

    * vm-su-do-recipients: If there is no To or Apparently-To header,
      use Newsgroups if available.
    * vm-mime-display-external-generic: use a unibyte temp buffer for

      friend \201 crashes the party.
    * vm-mime-find-leaf-content-id-in-layout-folder: add missing
      layout argument to vm-mime-find-leaf-content-id.
    * vm-mime-parse-entity: fixed regexps that match an empty content
      description so that they match descriptions that only contain

      First digit of numeric timezone spec must be 0 or 1.
    * vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines: ignore errors generated

vm (6.91-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added Lintian overrides, so that the postinst not setting the symlink
    warning should be gone.
  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * vm-mime-can-display-internal: check charset to verify that we
      can display it when checking text/html.
    * vm-auto-archive-messages: hide value of last-command when calling
      vm-save-message.
    * vm-mime-find-leaf-content-id: removed second arg in call to
      vm-mm-layout-id since it only accepts one argument.
    * vm-mime-transfer-encode-region: \\n -> \n in armor-dot check
      regexp string.
    * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: dropped (sleep-for 2).  No one cares
      about syntax errors.
    * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: if call to base64-encode-region
      fails with wrong-number-of-arguments error call it with only
      two args and do the B encoding cleanup separately.
    * vm-mime-base64-decode-region: don't use the FSF Emacs base64
      decoding function, since it fails completely if it encounters
      characters outside of the BASE64 alphabet.
    * vm-mime-attachment-auto-type-alist: added the usual PDF,
      Quicktime and Excel file extensions.
    * vm-imap-move-mail: trying using obsolete RFC822.PEEK if
      BODY.PEEK fails.
    * vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: support use of obsolete RFC822.PEEK.
    * vm-so-sortable-datestring: use vm-timezone-make-date-sortable
      instead of the bare timezone-make-date-sortable, which is less
      capable of parsing badly formed Date headers.
    * vm-mime-convert-undisplayable-layout: save the content type
      parameters from the old type and give them to the new type.

  * since around mid 6.80's, VM has started using grep -c to determine the
    number of new messages. Before, it just looked at the time stamp and
    hence did not muck with access times of the spool file. This messes
    with other biff like programs out there. At present, the only option
    is to turn vm mail check off; this is already reported as a bug. Stay

    * vm-forward-message: if MIME forwarding, switch the buffer
      containing the attached message to be multibyte to avoid the

    * vm-do-folders-summary: count messages in folders that lack
      entries in the folders summary database using vm-grep-program.
    * vm-do-folders-summary: ignore index files in the folder directories.
    * vm-update-folders-summary-highlight: use intern-soft instead of

    * vm-mark-for-folders-summary-update: check for killed summary
      before selecting folders summary buffer.

vm (6.88-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream revision. The changes are:
     * New variables:

       + vm-mmosaic-program
       + vm-mmosaic-program-switches
     * vm-determine-proper-charset: don't use MULE rules if operating
       in a unibyte buffer.  The non-MULE rules work better in that
       case.  Dropped use of vm-with-multibyte-buffer.
     * use BODY.PEEK instead of RFC822.PEEK in IMAP message fetches,
       since RFC822.PEEK has been made obsolete in RFC 2060.
     * not decoding for preview if vm-preview-lines == 0 was a
       mistake, as the header might still need decoding, so this
       change was reversed.
     * allow 8-bit chars in IMAP atoms.  Microsoft Exchange emits them,
       resistance is futile.
     * keep IMAP trace buffer if a protocol error occurs.  Code for
       this was partially done, it's finished now.
     * improved folders summary, new folders summary format specifier %s.
     * vm-move-to-xxxx-button: fixed code assumption that buttons were
       contiguous.
     * qp-encode.c: get rid of non-constant initializers (nextc =
       getchar()) to avoid warnings from Sun's compiler.
     * vm-toolbar-fsfemacs-install-toolbar: "mime" now works in
       vm-use-toolbar under FSF Emacs.
     * don't display verbose "Waiting for POP QUIT" message unless

     * make vm-thread-loop-obarray a larger hash table.
     * use vm-global-block-new-mail to prevent async reentrance into the POP
       and IMAP code.  Use vm-block-new-mail to prevent command-level
       mail retrieval buffer locally.
     * vm-check-mail-itimer-function: always check for mail.  Now that
       we're updating the folders summary we need to do the check even
       if we know there is new mail fmor a previous check, so that the
       summary so kept up to date.
     * removed Mule menu from VM's commandeered menubar (FSF Emacs 20 only).
     * C-c C-p in composition buffer binding changed from
       vm-mime-preview-composition to vm-preview-composition.
     * vm-sort-messages: fixed paren problem that broke non-thread
       sorting while threading was enabled.
     * vm-assimilate-new-messages: don't run vm-arrived-message-hook
       and vm-arrived-messages-hook if being called for the first time
       in this folder.  Old check for this didn't work properly, so
       now first-time status is passed in as a parameter.

       it is MIME decoded if necessary.
     * vm-check-for-spooled-mail: don't skip remaining spool files

      + vm-delete-duplicate-messages
    * New variables:
      + vm-pop-read-quit-response (default value is t)
    * vm-toolbar-fsfemacs-install-toolbar: fix logic reversal that
      caused Emacs 21 toolbar to never be installed.
    * reviewed coding-system-for-{read,write} usage everywhere and
      brought it into line with current theory of how Emacs/MULE
      works.  coding-system-for-write is bound in more places because
      in the Emacs 21.0.91 pretest, write-region, even when called
      non-interactively, will query the user if it doesn't think the
      buffer's coding system can be used to safely write out the

    * vm-mail-to-mailto-url: vm-url-decode -> vm-url-decode-string.
    * vm-move-to-xxxx-button: next-etent-change -> next-extent-change.
    * vm-move-to-xxxx-button: dropped point movement outside the loop
      as it wasn't needed and actually broke things.
    * vm-add-or-delete-message-labels: don't cycle through the
      message list if there are no labels to act upon.
    * vm-add-or-delete-message-labels: return a list of labels that were
      rejected because they are not known.  vm-add-existing-message-labels

    * vm-determine-proper-content-transfer-encoding: changed search
      for non-ASCII chars from [\200-\377] to [^\000-\177] because FSF
      Emacs 20 re-search-forward does not match 0200-0377 unibyte

    * vm-unbury-buffer: wrapped call to switch-to-buffer in condition-case
      in case it fails (dedicated window, minibuffer window)
    * reversed coding system changes introduced in VM 6.85 in
      vm-line-ending-coding-system and vm-binary-coding-system, as
      they were wrong.
    * vm-minibuffer-complete-word: use minibuffer-prompt-end
      function to determine where the prompt ends instead of
      previous-property-change.
    * vm-toolbar-fsfemacs-install-toolbar: use xbm images if the
      display is not color-capable.
    * vm-toolbar-fsfemacs-install-toolbar: don't use "mime-colorful"
      as a basename when looking for an XBM for a non-color display.
    * vm-toolbar-make-fsfemacs-toolbar-image-spec: use ":mask
      heuristic" to make the toolbar pixmap/bitmap backgrounds track the
      background of the tool-bar face.
    * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: when using base64-encode-region
      wrap it in a condition-case to catch errors and resignal all
      errors with vm-mime-error.
    * vm-mime-base64-decode-region: when using base64-decode-region
      wrap it in a condition-case to catch errors and resignal all
      errors with vm-mime-error.
    * getmail-xx.xbm was a PBM file.  No one noticed.  Fixed.
    * check for vm-fsfemacs-p before using overlay-put, overlay-get,
      etc. in the extent/overlay compatibility functions.  We can't
      use the overlay emulation package's functions because VM needs
      the functions to be able to handle plain extents also.
    * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: catch the "Invalid search
      bound (wrong side of point)" error that font-lock can throw and
      ignore it.
    * vm-set-window-configuration: delete windows that are over
      explicitly named buffers.  This is meant as an aid to BBDB
      users who might want to include a BBDB window in a
      configuration but don't want the window to appear unless the
      displayed buffer is non-empty.
    * install the toolbar only once under FSF Emacs, since it will
      appear everywhere vm-mode-map is used thereafter.
    * panic buffoon's color changed from rgb:ff/7f/ff to rgb:e1/92/46 (tan).

vm (6.85-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream revision. The changes are:
    * New commands:
      + vm-move-to-previous-button
      + vm-move-to-next-button
    * vm-end-of-message, vm-beginning-of-message: wrap vm-save-buffer-excursion
      about part of function that does window selection since that can
      change the current buffer.  vm-narrow-to-page was noticing the
      buffer change to the summary; vm-message-pointer was suddenly nil.
    * made vm-create-virtual-folder, and by effect its callers, honor
      vm-next-command-uses-marks.
    * vm-apply-virtual-folder: honor vm-next-command-uses-marks.
    * added no-suggested-filename arg to vm-mime-attach-file and
      vm-mime-attach-object.
    * vm-preview-current-message: don't decode for preview unless
      vm-preview-lines is non-nil, as this is extra unnecessary work.
    * vm-pop-end-session: read POP QUIT response; Microsoft Exchange
      apparently will sometimes not expunge if we close the connection
      without reading the response.
    * set reasonable default value for vm-folders-summary-directories.
    * vm-preview-current-message: don't block display of any type
      other than message/external-body and externally displayed types
      when supporting vm-mime-decode-for-preview.
    * internal image support for v21 Emacs.
    * toolbar support for v21 Emacs.
    * Makefile: for 'make autoload' compile vm.el into vm.elc instead
      of writing require statements directly into it, otherwise Emacs
      21 bitches.
    * vm-binary-coding-system was returning no-conversion under FSF
      Emacs, which is wrong, now returns raw-text.
    * vm-minibuffer-complete-word: In Emacs 21, during a minibuffer
      read the minibuffer contains propt as buffer text and that text
      is read only.  So we can no longer assume that (point-min) is
      where the user-entered text starts so we must compute this
      location.  Calling previous-property-change is a kludge but it
      seems ot be the only thing that does the job.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-message/external-body: for Emacs 21,
      use a multibyte work buffer, otherwise the evil \201s appear
      in the tempfile and utterly corrupt it.  Also set
      buffer-file-coding-system in the work buffer, since
      write-region may be called in it later.
    * dropped use of vm-with-unibyte-buffer.  I don't htink it is
      needed any longer.
    * vm-assimilate-new-messages: only run vm-arrived-messages-hook
      if a new message has arrived.
    * use a normal keymap instead of a sparse keymap for vm-mode-map.


 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Fri, 24 Nov 2000 23:42:45 -0600

vm (6.84-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream revision. The changes are:
    * vm-submit-bug-report: mail-user-agent should be a symbol not a
      list--- fixed.
    * vm-keep-some-buffers: kill a buffer even if it is modified
      if it's value of buffer-offer-save is nil.
    * vm-pop-make-session: if APOP authentcation fails, remove the
      saved password just like we do for PASS authentication.
    * new variable and function vm-xemacs-file-coding-p tells whether
      XEmacs was compiled with --with-file-coding=yes, which means
      several things need to be treated the same as if MULE were
      enabled.
    * when deciding whether to call set-buffer-file-coding-system
      just check fboundp instead of xemacs-mule-p or fsfemacs-mule-p.
      This should help XEmacs-NT+file-coding.

    * New variables:
      + vm-page-continuation-glyph
      + vm-folders-summary-database
      + vm-folders-summary-directories
      + vm-folders-summary-format
      + vm-frame-per-folders-summary
    * New commands:
      + vm-folders-summarize
    * Makefile: moved vm-version.el to the beginning of the SOURCES
      list so that "make debug" doesn't crash on unbound variables.
    * vm-narrow-to-page: move to beginning of line only if we're not
      at end of buffer.  If we're at end of buffer, it usually means
      forward-page failed to find a page delimiter and crashed into
      point-max.
    * vm-scroll-forward: after calling vm-narrow-to-page move to
      either the new window start or the start of the text section of
      the message, whichever is the greater buffer position.  This
      fixes the semi-broken backward paging over page delimiters and
      fixed the broken forward scrolling over page delimiters after
      scrolling backward through the same message.
    * vm-narrow-to-page: use overlay/extent to display a "...more..."
      type string at the end of a page.
    * vm-scroll-forward: do (sit-for 0) to refresh display early so that
      the end of message notice appears when it should when scrolling
      over page delimiters.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: insert placeholder
      character before end marker before calling w3-region to avoid
      end == start marker squashing problem.
    * vm-submit-bug-report: reporter-submit-bug-report apparently
      dropped support for the variable reporter-mailer in favor of
      using mail-user-agent instead.  Bind this variable as well the
      old one so bug reporters can send attachments.
    * vm: don't decode MIME if recover-file is likely to happen,
      since recover-file does not work in a presentation buffer.
    * vm-mail-to-mailto-url: decode URL before handing it to
      vm-mail-internal.
    * vm-mime-compile-format-1: removed code to decode and reencode
      MIME encoded words, since these aren't needed in MIME button
      format tags.
    * give up on disabling font-lock around attachments.  font-lock
      users will just have to lose, because I don't see a clean way
      to do it.  Removed futile atemptes from code.
    * vm-preview-current-message: don't MIME decode for preview if
      vm-preview-lines == 0 since it's pointless in that case.
    * vm-select-folder-buffer: make folder buffer selection
      mandatory, generate error otherwise.  New function
      vm-select-folder-buffer-if-possible is to be used for
      situations where buffer selection is not mandatory.
    * moved vm-totals computation out of vm-emit-totals-blurb and into a
      separate function.
    * vm-expunge-folder: increment vm-modification-counter in the
      real folder buffers to invalidate vm-totals.
    * New variables:
      + vm-url-retrieval-methods
      + vm-wget-program
      + vm-lynx-program
    * access-type=url support added for message/external-body.
    * vm-visit-virtual-folder: call vm-fsfemacs-nonmule-display-8bit-chars.
      This needs to be done for the same reasons as it needs to be done
      in 'vm'.
    * provide keymap prompt for # and ## (XEmacs only, unfortunately).
    * vm-truncate-string: fixed to once again support a negative width
      argument, even if we're using char-width.
    * vm-mime-get-xxx-parameter: don't inadvertently truncate parameter
      value at newline.
    * vm-string-width: don't use Emacs 20's string width--- it
      ignores buffer-display-table and thereby hoses the summary.
      Using char-width on each character and summing the reuslt
      gives the answer we want.
    * vm-decode-coding-region: compute old region size based on the
      source buffer rather than the work buffer, since they might
      have different unibyte/multibyte status.
    * vm-decode-coding-region: reverse order of insert/delete
      sequence at the end to delete then insert.  It fixes the
      parsing of this header
         From: "Cajsa Ottesj=?ISO-8859-1?B?9g==?=" <cajsao@ling.gu.se>
      Apparently if ö is inserted before \366 in a multibyte buffer,
      Emacs believes that the two characters are one character and
      moves point forward past the \366.  This loses because the \366
      needs to be deleted.
    * vm-flush-cached-data: stuff last-modified, pop-retrieved and
      imap-retrieved lists.
    * vm-pop-move-mail: if we retrieved something, call vm-stuff-pop-retrieved.
    * vm-imap-move-mail: if we retrieved something, call vm-stuff-imap-retrieved.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: pass charset name to
      vm-mime-charset-decode-region instead a layout.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/enriched: pass charset name to
      vm-mime-charset-decode-region instead a layout.
    * vm-menu-mime-dispose-menu: convert extent or overlay into a
      layout before using layout functions on it.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-folder: put leading and trailiing message
      separators around the message in the temp folder.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-folder: clear buffer-modified flag before
      entering vm-mode.
    * call the mime-reader-map save functions from the dispose menu
      instead of the low-level functions, so that
      vm-mime-delete-after-saving is honored.
    * vm-mime-can-display-internal: add 'deep' flag, which indicates
      whether to check the subobject of a message/external-body
      object.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-multipart/alternative: use the new 'deep'
      flag of vm-mime-can-display-internal.

vm (6.76-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * At last, emacs20 compatibility. This is a new upstream
    version. excerpted changes: closes: Bug#69189
    # New variables:
      + vm-movemail-program-switches
    # generate a random Message-ID for previewed compositions in case
      the user wants to resend the preview somewhere.
    # vm-fix-my-summary!!!: call vm-set-modflag-of on each message
      whose summary we whack so that the summary cache is rewritten
      when the folder is saved.
    # vm-sort-messages: if this is not a thread sort and threading is
      enabled, then disable threading and make sure the whole summary
      is regenerated (to recalculate %I everywhere).
    # vm-mime-display-internal-image-xxxx: set glyph baseline to 100%
      to add scrolling in XEmacs 21.2.
    # vm-generate-index-file-validity-check: set step value to 1 if
      buffer size is smaller than 11 bytes.  Step used to be 0 in
      this case which led to infloop.
    # added base64-encode.c, base64-decode.c, qp-encode.c,
      qp-decode.c to the distribution.
    # fixed problem in qp-decode.c where lines contain a single
      character followed by newline would have the first character
      dropped.
    # vm-display: allow a string as a buffer argument, convert it to
      a buffer internally.
    # vm-print-message: don't set the current buffer to be the shell
      output buffer, as this makes vm-set-window-configuration bail
      out early because it wants to be in a VM related buffer.
    # vm-pipe-message-to-command: don't set the current buffer to be the
      shell output buffer, as this makes vm-set-window-configuration
      bail out early because it wants to be in a VM related buffer.
    # vm-print-message: don't use vm-display to display the shell
      output buffer, use display-buffer instead and only use it if
      the output buffer is not empty.
    # vm-pipe-message-to-command: don't use vm-display to display the
      shell output buffer, use display-buffer instead and only use it
      if the output buffer is not empty.
    # vm-print-message: use the vm-print-message config instead of
      the vm-pipe-message-to-command config.
    # vm-display: don't immediately set current buffer to be the buffer
      to be displayed.  This behavior made vm-set-window-configuration
      bail out early.
    # vm-discard-cached-data: call vm-garbage-collect-message before
      flushing message caches.
    # look for (fboundp 'w3-about) in addition to (fboundp 'w3-region)
      to determine if text/html can be displayed internally.
    # make after-save-hook local in VM folder buffers.
    # vm-get-new-mail: make third arg to read-file-name nil, make
      fourth arg t.
    # vm-compose-mail: move to point-min before searching for the header
      separator string.
    # Removed bad quote in vm-delete-mime-object menu entry.
    # vm-match-data: replaced with version that calls match-data to
      figure out the number of valid \(..\) groups.  Emacs 20.4 is
      randomly signaling args-out-of-range if the arg to
      match-beginning exceed the number of internally allocated
      registers in the regexp engine or some such nonsense.
    # vm-frame-loop: in the last deletion check, also check the
      delete-me frame with vm-created-this-frame-p before deleting
      it.
    # vm-check-index-file-validity: allow for a nil modified time,
      which can occur if the folder is empty.
    # generalized vm-keep-mail-buffer into vm-keep-some-buffers and
      made the former call the latter.
    # keep POP and IMAP trace buffers if there is trouble making a connection.
    # complain to user if APOP authentication is asked for but isn't
      supported.  Previously POP retrieval silently failed.
    # vm-reorder-message-headers: For babyl folders, add a newline
      before the EOOH line if header section does not end with two
      newline.
    # macroized most uses of coding system constants 'no-conversion
      and 'binary, because 'no-conversion doesn't meant the same thing
      in Emacs and XEmacs.
    # vm: if buffer-file-coding-system is nil, set it to 'raw-text.
      (FSF Emacs MULE only).
    # removed duplicate (make-variable-buffer-local 'vm-pop-retrieved-messages)
    # vm-parse-date: assume 2-digit year specifications < 70 are in
      the 2000's rather than the 1900's.
    # vm-mm-encoded-header: bind case-fold-search to t during
      search for encoded words.
  * Added new package for the included mime transport encoder/decoders.

vm (6.74-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Starting with this version, vm shall not try and byte compile for
    emacs20 emacsen. VM has only depended upon emacs19, but it would
    compile on emacs20 as well. However, emacs 20.4 was released recently,
    but Kyle still does not feel comfortable with it. Therefore, until the
    upstream supports emacs20, vm shall not compile under it. Instead,
    there shall be an experimental version of vm that shall depend on
    emacs20 as well and support it, but the user uses that at their own
    risk. I personally have been using vm on emacs20 with no mishap, but
    that is just one data point.
  * Excerpted changes:
   * New variables:
     + vm-mime-external-content-type-exceptions
   * vm-mime-parse-entity: quietly treat "text" as a content type as
     if it were "text/plain" and US-ASCII.
   * vm-mime-discard-layout-contents: set m to be the layout's
     message, not the end of the layout's body.
   * New variables:
     + vm-mime-decode-for-preview
     + vm-mime-delete-viewer-processes
   * vm-mime-display-external-generic: put MIME temp files on the message
     garbage list instead of the folder's garbage list.
   * vm-delete-mime-object: copied check for the top-level MIME
     object from FSF Emacs code to XEmacs code since the former is
     the correct check to use.
   * vm-mime-discard-layout-contents: discard cached byte and line
     counts of the edited message.
   * vm-sort-compare-thread: in the case where root message IDs are
     different, if the message dates are identical, use string-lessp on
     the message IDs to break the tie.  This avoids having different
     messages compare as equal, which makes the sort unstable.
   * vm-mime-discard-layout-contents: recompute Content-Length
     header if needed.
   * vm-mime-can-display-internal: consider all text types except
     text/html displayable if the character set is displayable.
     For text/html continue to require W3.

    * vm-mime-parse-entity: move binding of case-fold-search to a
      point after the set-buffer call to avoid having the binding
      overriden by a buffer-local value.
    * vm-mime-convert-undisplayable-layout: wrap call to vm-mm-layout
      message in a call to vm-mime-make-message-symbol; a symbol
      needs to be in the struct slot, not the raw message.
    * signal an error if mail-alias-file is set and the user is not
      the superuser.
    * broke the message ID creation code out of
      vm-mail-mode-insert-message-id-maybe.
    * vm-su-do-date: allow a RFC 822 regexp to match a timezone spec
      that lacks the leading plus or minus.
    * bind jka-compr-compression-info-list to nil in various place to
      avoid unwanted compression or decompression of data.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-file: bind jka-compr-compression-info-list
      to nil instead of func-binding jka-compr-get-compression-info.
    * vm-sort-messages: call vm-build-thread-lists (new function)
      which calls vm-th-thread-list on each message in the folder.
      This generates keys that the thread sort needs before the sort
      happens instead of during it.  Fixes thread sorting bugs.

vm (6.71-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Excerpted changes:
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/plain: get message struct from
      the MIME layout instead of from vm-message-pointer, since the
      latter is utterly the wrong place to find it in this context.
      Also, don't fill if no-highlighting is non-nil.
    * vm-add-or-delete-message-labels: propagate label additions in
      virtual folders to the global lists of the underlying real folders.
    * bind format-alist to nil around calls to insert-file-contents
      in MIME composition encoding functions.
    * New variables:
      + vm-fill-paragraphs-containing-long-lines
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: moved the code that rmeoves
      read-only text properties into the vm-with-unibyte-buffer form.
    * vm-make-presentation-copy: bind inhibit-read-only before tryign
      to modify an existing presentation buffer.  This is to avoid
      stumbling over read-only text properties.
    * vm-mime-insert-button: use 'append' instead of 'nconc' to add a
      keymap parent.  (FSF Emacs only)  This avoids modifying the
      child keymap and creating a circular keymap structure in a
      subsequent call.
    * moved code that sets vm-xemacs-p, vm-fsfemacs-p, etc. to vm-version.el.
      Moved other basic feature checking code to vm-version.el.
    * Makefile: make sure vm-version gets loaded first, so the
      version/feature checking code is run very early.  Some of it is
      needed by other modules at load time.
    * added keymap for MIME buttons so you can display, save, pipe,
      print from a tty.
    * vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition: use insert-file-contents
      instead of insert-file-contents-literally and see what breaks.
      This will allow EFS to work.
    * default value of vm-mime-default-face-charsets no longer contains
      "iso-8859-1" under FSF Emacs/Mule.  8-bit character display as
      octal codes in a unibyte buffer unless standard-display-europeans
      or equivalent is called, and we don't call this function under
      MULE.
    * vm-compose-mail: this function is a VM entry point so call
      vm-session-initialization.

vm (6.68-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added doc-base support.
  * New upstream version. Please NOTE: Kyle has retracted support for emacs
    20.3, saying that there is an bug in that version of emacs whence a
    buffer string copy does not copy the contents of the buffer, causing
    mail to be distorted. I have personally committed to using emacs20 v
    20.3, and I have never experienced this bug. However, the chance does
    exist (and has existed for all emacs20+vm combinations); use this on
    emacs20 at your own risk. (I have changed VM so it does at least
    compile on Emacs 20.3).
  * Excerpted changes:
      * put user specified Netscape switches before the -remote stuff
        in the arg list to Netscape.
      * vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: use char-after instead of
        char-before since Emacs 19.34 doesn't have char-before.
      * use vm-coding-system-name instead of coding-system-name.  fset
        vm-coding-system-name to coding-system-name if it exists,
        otherwise use symbol-name.  FSF Emacs doesn't have a
        coding system object, so the name is the same as the coding
        system symbol's name.
      * vm-determine-proper-charset: wrap the guts of the function in a
        vm-with-multibyte-buffer form to ensure we're looking at
        characters instead of the raw encoding data when scanning for
        the character sets that are present.
      * vm-decode-mime-layout: support the old 'name' parameter when
        supporting vm-infer-mime-types.
      * vm-do-reply: don't match vm-subject-ignored-prefix against the
        subject to determine if we prepend vm-reply-subject-prefix to
        the subject or not.  This reverts a change made in VM 6.47.
      * vm-mm-layout: call vm-mime-parse-entity-safe instead of
        vm-mime-parse-entity so that we get always get a layout back.
        This avoids a MIME part completely disappearing if we can't
        parse it.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: use type "error/error" for the
        layout returned if the MIME part can't be parsed.
      * vm-mime-qp-encode-region: hex encode _ and ? for Q encoding as
        required by RFC 2047.
      * vm-mime-send-body-to-file: Func-bind jka-compr-get-compression-info
        to 'ignore' to avoid double compression of saved MIME bodies that
        are already compressed.
      * vm-imap-make-session: quote (using IMAP quoting rules) login
        name and password that are sent as part of the LOGIN command.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity-safe: pass message and passing-message-only
        flag to vm-mime-parse-entity.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity: wrong number of fields in the last layout
        structure fixed.
      * make MIME transfer encoding/decoding work buffers unibyte to
        avoid corruption when characters are copied from them.  (FSF
        Emacs only).
      * vm-mime-attach-message: store the message to attach in an
        unibyte buffer instead of a multibyte buffer.
      * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: encode text regions using
        coding system selected from vm-mime-mule-coding-to-charset-alist
        instead of relying on buffer-file-coding-system to be set properly.
      * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: when handling the attachment
        of a composite object, add MIME header section (if not already
        provided) before parsing and transfer encoding the object.
        vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition similarly modified.
      * New variables:
        + vm-mime-qp-decoder-program
        + vm-mime-qp-decoder-switches
        + vm-mime-qp-encoder-program
        + vm-mime-qp-encoder-switches
      * set-file-coding-system -> set-buffer-file-coding-system.
      * vm-edit-message: force edit buffer to be unibyte (FSF Emacs
        only).
      * vm: force folder buffer to be unibyte (FSF Emacs only).
      * wrap parts of various MIME decoding and display functions in
        vm-with-unibyte-buffer so we can work with unwashed 8-bit data
        directly. (FSF Emacs only).
      * force some buffers we create to be unibyte buffers to avoid
        conflabulation of 8-bit data. (FSF Emacs only).
      * vm-find-trailing-message-separator: point still not moving backward
        all the times that it should be, so go back to ignoring the return
        value of vm-find-leading-message-separator and always moving backward.
      * vm-mail-mode-insert-message-id-maybe: use the hostname variable
        we so carefullly initialized, instead of just using
        (system-name).
      * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: if B encoding, strip newlines from
        the work buffer instead of the buffer region we're converting.
      * vm-mime-base64-encode-region: don't emit status message unless
        the region we're encoding is larger than 200 chars.
      * vm-mime-parse-entity: new fourth argument that tells the
        function whether to use the message argument for positional
        information or to just use it to struct in the message slot of
        the MIME layout struct.  Same for vm-mime-parse-entity-safe.
        Use this new argument appropriately in various places so the
        message slot gets filled in more places.

     * vm-imap-retrieve-to-crashbox: for From_-with-Content-Length and

       message lacks one.
     * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: third arg to

     * new edition of the user manual.
     * updated README, new installation instructions for manual,

vm (6.63-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
     * set selective-display to nil in various places in the code
       where write-region and call-process-region (which calls
       write-region) are called to avoid the CR -> LF translation.
     * vm-load-window-configurations: added bind of
       coding-system-for-read.
     * vm-store-window-configurations: removed binding of
       coding-system-for-read, moved coding-system-for-write binding
       to be ambient only during the write-region call.
     * removed all but one of the bindings of inhibit-read-only in the
       MIME code.
     * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: Added a remove-text-properties
       call to remove read-only text properties.
     * vm-mime-attach-object: Don't allow attachment of object to a
       composition buffer that has already been encoded.
     * retain IMAP session trace buffer if a protocol error occurs.
     * removed vm-iamp-store-failed error definition since it was
       unused.
     * 'w' summary format specifier now gives full weekday name.
     * vm-mail-mode-insert-message-id-maybe: ensure RFC 822 compliant
       month and day name by indexing the names from an alist instead
       of relying on format-time-string.  format-time-string's output
       can't be trusted for this because of the dubious `locale' stuff
       in the C library.
     * for non-Content-Length based From_ types, don't require a year
       >= A.D. 1000 at the end of the From line--- instead only require a
       single digit.  This change to deal with some evil mailer that
       puts a numeric timezone at the end of the line.
     * vm-make-presentation-buffer: remove buffer local foreground and
       background colors set in the default face in the presentation
       buffer.
     * dropped the Videodrome joke from vm-submit-bug-report.
     * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: bind
       file-name-buffer-file-type-alist so that a bit-for-bit binary
       file read is assured.  This matters only to NTEmacs.
     * vm-mouse-send-url-to-netscape: Netscape 4.05 apparently doesn't
       like the space after the comma in openURL(..., new-window) and
       doesn't create a new window.  So the space has been removed.
     * read per-folder IMAP retrieved list at startup... forgot to add
       code to do this.
     * accept lower-case hex digits in quoted-printable encoding.
     * vm-mime-composite-type-p: assume message/rfc822 and
       message/news are the only composite "message" types.  New ones
       will have to be manually added.
     * vm-misc.el: moved macros to vm-macro.el.
     * Makefile: Preload vm-macro.el instead of vm-misc.el.

      References header unless no References header is present.

      require that end of the leading separator line match
      " [1-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]".  Revisit in eight thousand years.
    * rename vm-sprintf to vm-summary-sprintf.  Use alists to store
      compiled formats instead of using symbol property lists.
    * vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition: discard all but Content-ID
      header in already MIME'd objects to avoid header duplication.
      Same for vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: If error signaled, catch
      it, store the error message and return nil.
    * more descriptive buffer name for header buffer used when asking
      about POP retrievals.
    * vm-mail-mode-insert-message-id-maybe: try harder to find a
      hostname that has dots in it for the Message-ID header.
    * made vm-pop-retrieved-messages a buffer-local variable, as the
      table isn't meant to be shared among folders.
    * vm-expunge-pop-messages: use password-less maildrop specs when
      doing comparisons in skip code.  Changed catch tag from 'skip
      to 'replay to more accurately reflect what's happening.
    * vm-pop-end-session: delete the trace buffer.
    * vm-pop-make-session: generate a new buffer for each session

      has a standard signature in it.
    * remove TM hooks from mail mode buffers if vm-send-using-mime is
      non-nil.
    * vm-mime-send-body-to-file: if user enters a directory name, use
      it unconditionally.
    * panic buffoon's color changed from rgb:00/df/ff to rgb:ff/7f/ff.
    * use user-mail-address function in Bcc header (XEmacs only).
    * use user-mail-address variable, if bound in, Bcc headers.
    * replaced definition of vm-load-init-file in vm-startup.el with
      the one from vm-folder.el.
    * use vm-mime-default-action-string-alist only if VM knows how to
      display the MIME object.  Fiddle with the strings in the list.
    * support foregroundToolBarColor symbol in the 'small' set of
      toolbar pixmaps (XEmacs only).

vm (6.51-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
    * don't call make-face if no face support is compiled into Emacs
      (FSF Emacs only).
    * enable inline display of text/html again.
    * vm-mime-text-type-p: anchor string matches and add a trailing /
      to assure matching only the correct types.
    * more fiddling with newlines around the Content-Description
      header, hopefully getting it right this time.
    * correct "Display as Text" MIME menu item.
    * vm-mime-charset-internally-displayable-p: check
      vm-mime-mule-charset-to-coding-alist if vm-fsfemacs-mule-p is
      non-nil.
    * vm-rename-current-mail-buffer: changed to recognize new default
      composition buffer name introduced in 6.49.
    * vm-mime-display-external-generic: append filename when supporting
      COMMAND-LINE form.  Copy program-list since we may need to modify
      it.
    * vm-discard-cached-data: set mime layout and mime encoded header
      slots to nil in virtual messages.
    * vm-session-initialization: initialize gui-button-face if not
      already initialized (FSF Emacs only).
    * vm-pop-move-mail: check vm-pop-auto-expunge-alist properly;
      defaulting did not work as you would expect.
    * enable image and multiple font support for Windows (XEmacs only).
    * provide Content-Description headers for text surrounding
      MIME attachments in compositions.
    * vm-forward-message: provide Content-Description header for a
      MIME forwarded message.
    * use same filename extension as that of the suggested attachment
      filename when creating a tempfile for use by an external MIME
      viewer.
    * New variables:
      + vm-infer-mime-types
    * vm-pop-check-mail: return nil if UIDL returns an empty list.
    * vm-mail-internal: default composition buffer name to "mail to ?"
      instead of "*VM-mail*".
    * added '$' to regexps in default value of
      vm-mime-attachment-auto-type-alist.
    * new semantics for vm-mime-external-content-types-alist: %-spec
      expansion, shell command line syntax allowed.
    * default value of vm-auto-decode-mime-messages changed from nil
      to t.

vm (6.48-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:
     * New variables:
       + vm-spooled-mail-waiting-hook
       + vm-mime-uuencode-decoder-program
       + vm-mime-uuencode-decoder-switches
     * vm-delete-index-file: don't try to delete the file if
       vm-index-file-suffix is not a string.
     * show completions if completion-auto-help is non-nil.  Needed to
       replace car with caar in one place in vm-minibuffer-complete-word.
     * vm-startup-with-summary: handle 0 case specially so that a
       negative number is not passed to nth.
     * make vm-mime-preview-composition an alias for
       vm-preview-composition, fixing the typo that aliased
       vm-preview-mime-composition instead.
     * vm-auto-archive-messages: don't archive messages to the same
       folder that the user is visiting.
     * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: encode last MIME part from
       point to point-max instead of point-min to point-max.  (FSF
       Emacs/MULE only.)
     * fixed regexp syntax for backslashes in [..] contexts.  Need
       four backslahses for every one to appear in the regexp.
     * vm-discard-cached-data: set the mime-encoded-header-flag to nil.
     * vm-mime-burst-message: reverse varref and funcall in `or' expression
       to avoid skipping the rest of the vm-mime-burst-layout calls after
       the first successful one.
     * vm-check-pop-mail: use UIDL data to determine if messages in the
       popdrop have been retrieved.
     * vm-get-spooled-mail: always set vm-spooled-mail-waiting to nil
       after doing a sweep through the spool files, whether mailw as
       retrieved or not.  Not really correct but it is what the user
       expects.

       attempting to modify the buffer.
     * vm-auto-select-folder: Do the eval if the cdr of the alist pair
       is anything other than a string, instead of it it is anything
       other than an atom.
     * vm-do-reply: match vm-subject-ignored-prefix against the subject
       and don't prepend vm-reply-subject-prefix if there is a prefix

     * vm-save-message: don't set vm-last-save-folder if it is non-nil
       and the user selected folder matches what vm-auto-folder-alist
       would have chosen.  Tried to do this in 6.41, but broke the

     * vm-expunge-pop-messages: check whether vm-make-pop-session
       returns nil.
     * vm-read-attributes: allow header without a label list.  The
       label part of the data in the header was added later and may
       not be in the header of some older folders.
     * dropped use of vm-with-virtual-selector-variables in favor of

       the user selected folder matches what vm-auto-folder-alist would have
       chosen.
     * vm-show-list: sort list before displaying it.
     * vm-show-list: display list ordered top to bottom then left to
       right, instead of left to right and then top to bottom.
     * bind print-length to nil in some places to avoid truncation of
       Lisp Objects in folder headers.

vm (6.40.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Upgraded to standards version 2.4.0.0
  * Updated FSF address.
  * This fixes all Lintian bugs.
  * New upstream version. Excerpted changes:

         + vm-mime-7bit-composition-charset
       * don't grey-out "Decode MIME" toolbar button after a message is
         first decoded.  Let user use the button to rotate through

         the separate MIME button, not the one that appears as part of
         the `helper' button.
       * vm-mark-or-unmark-messages-with-selector: removed extra count
         argument from `message' call.
       * vm-build-virtual-message-list: if dont-finalize is set, don't
         set up the location vector or to obarray used to suppress
         duplicate messages.  In particular the latter causing empty
         message lists to be returned since all the messages were
         considered duplicates.
       * support foregroundToolBarColor symbol in toolbar pixmaps
         (XEmacs only).
       * vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: Use current buffer as
         folder buffer, instead of the buffer of specified message.
       * vm-get-new-mail: signal error if we fail to find a folder
         buffer through the normal means.
       * sleep for 2 seconds instead of 1 second after "consider M-x

    * vm-vs-header-or-text: vm-header-of -> vm-headers-of.
    * fixed reversed fset definition of vm-vs-sender.
    * don't grey-out "Decode MIME" menu entry after a message is
      first decoded.  Let user use menu entry to rotate through
      decoding states like the 'D' key does.
    * vm-check-emacs-version: Disallow running under Emacs 20.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-multipart/digest: genereate summary if
      vm-startup-with-summary says so.  Did the same for
      vm-mime-display-internal-message/partial and
      vm-mime-display-internal-message/rfc822.
    * default vm-temp-directory to (getenv "TMPDIR") if result is
      non-nil.
    * vm-undo: signal an error if the current folder is read-only.
    * vm-minibuffer-complete-word: set start of word to beginning of
      buffers if not doing a multi-word read.
    * vm-minibuffer-complete-word: if doing multi-word completion and
      the word before point exactly matches something in the completion
      list and the word also prefixes something else in the completion
      list and last-command eq vm-minibuffer-complete-word, insert
      a space, thereby letting the user complete the word.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/enriched: Don't assume (car
      errdata) is a string; it usually isn't.  Format error data
      properly.
    * vm-print-message: write out the tempfile for the non-MIME lobe
      of the conditional in the code, since it is needed there also.
    * vm-read-virtual-selector: raise the selected frame before
      reading from the minibuffer, so the user is less likely to type
      into the wrong minibuffer window and hose themselves.
    * vm-mime-fsfemacs-encode-composition: set coding-system-for-read
      when inserting a file-based attachment to avoid MULE munging.
      Protect value of buffer-file-coding-system from possible
      changes by insert-file-contents.
    VM 6.38 released (15 January 1998)
    * add vm-virtual-selector-clause property to new selectors.
    * vm-read-virtual-selector: removed hard coded list of selectors
      that take an arument.  Instead, read arg only for selectors that
      have a vm-virtual-selector-arg-type property.
    * fixed virtual folder numbering/infloop problem introduced in
      6.37.
    * vm-mark-or-unmark-messages-with-virtual-folder: Mark virtual
      messages instead of the underlying real messages when current
      folder is a virtual folder.
    VM 6.37 released (29 December 1997)
    * Folders menu code: create directories by default in vm-folder-directory.
    * added name parameter to vm-create-virtual-folder for use by
      vm-create-virtual-folder-same-author and
      vm-create-virtual-folder-same-subject to avoid regexp-quote
      goop in the modeline.
    * make sure the -should-delete-frame variables in vm-mouse.el are
      initialized before use.
    * vm-apply-virtual-folder bound to V X.
    * added virtual folder selectors for all the attributes that
      vm-set-message-attributes accepts.  Added un- selectors so that
      simple negations can be used with V C.  Added header-or-text
      selector.  Added aliases for some selector names.
    * New commands:
      + vm-toggle-all-marks (bound to M V).
      + vm-mark-matching-messages-with-virtual-folder (bound to M X).
      + vm-unmark-matching-messages-with-virtual-folder (bound to M x).
    * vm-update-summary-and-mode-line: copy value of default-directory
      from folder buffer to the summary and presentation buffers.
    * report null results in mark commands as "No message marked"
      instead of "0 messages marked".
    VM 6.36 released (19 December 1997)
    * vm-yank-message: commented out text/html code.
    * added toolbar initialization status message (XEmacs only).
    * allow integers in the vm-use-toolbar toolbar specification,
      which represent blank space in the toolbar. (XEmacs only).
    * allow for the possibility that lpr-command and lpr-switches
      are unbound.
    * restore binding of C-? ; binding the delete keysym doesn't
      affect the delete key on a dumb terminal when running FSF
      Emacs.
    * changed semantics of vm-temp-file-directory.  Its value now
      must end with the directory separator character used by the
      local operating system.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-text/enriched: catch errors in
      enriched-decode and store it in the MIME layout struct for
      future display.
    * New commands:
       + vm-create-virtual-folder-same-subject (bound to V S)
       + vm-create-virtual-folder-same-author (bound to V A)
    * vm-write-file: If write-file renames the folder buffer, rename
      the summary buffer and presentation buffer to match.
    * vm-mime-can-display-internal: don't assume enriched.el is
      shipped with Emacs.  Assume text/enriched is internally
      displayable only if enriched-mode is fbound.
    * vm-mime-fragment-composition: supply the "total" parameter in
      all message/partial parts instead of just the last one.
    * only delete the frame used for completion if VM created it.
    * vm-fsfemacs-p: Don't insist on v19.
    VM 6.35 released (24 November 1997)
    * typo fixes
    * Gregory Neil Shapiro's Emacs 20 MULE patches, which inserted
      bindings for coding-system-for-read/write in various places.
    * renamed vm-fsfemacs-19-p to vm-fsfemacs-p.
    * Bound (control /) to vm-undo, bound backspace and delete
      keysyms to vm-scroll-backward, dropped binding of "\C-?".
    * added ;;;###autoload cookies to all VM entry points.
    * vm-session-initialization: require 'vm first to make sure the basic
      things are loaded before we try to do anything.
    * dropped inline support for text/html.  Too much pain right now.
      Revisit later.
    * recognize po:user type spool file and peaceably hand it off to
      movemail.
    * vm-mode-internal: install new fucntion vm-unblock-new-mail on
      after-save-hook to allow retrieval of mail after a save of an
      M-x recover-file'd folder.
    * vm-pop-make-session: first argument to buffer-disable-undo is
      required under XEmacs 19.14, so provide it.
    * Use locate-data-directory if it exists when setting
      vm-image-directory.
    * vm-mail-internal: insert an extra newline before the inserted signature
      so the user doesn't have to type one.  (I give.)
    * vm-mime-transfer-encode-layout: don't add a
      Content-Transfer-Encoding header unless the encoding type of
      the layout differs from what we require it to be.
    * vm-mime-transfer-encode-region: downcase the return value so
      string comparisons don't have to worry about case.  QP encode
      if armor-dot is set.
    * vm-print-message: use a tempfile under Windows 95 or NT.
      Apparently the losing print utils there don't understand stdin or
      can't read from it.
    * vm-mime-text-type-p renamed to vm-mime-text-type-layout-p.
      The new version of vm-mime-text-type-p checks the type without a
      layout wrapped around it.
    * vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition: For MULE, use binary coding
      system when inserting an attached file if the type of the
      attachment is not a textual MIME type.

       * vm: use other frame if folder is visible there.
       * vm-auto-archive-messages: don't silently block archival
         attempts to /dev/null; Emacs no longer complains about
         writes to /dev/null.
       * vm-toolbar-initialize: add line for 'getmail' button support
         that got omitted somehow.
       * vm-multiple-fonts-possible-p: added win32 as a window system

vm (6.33-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Chaned post installation script not to redirect input to a scratch
    file in /tmp (we use /tmp/emacs/file.new.$$ instead. This fixes
    BUG#11787.
  * New upstream bug fixing release. Excerpted changes:
    * vm-undisplay-buffer: don't delete frames unless both
      vm-mutable-windows and pop-up-frames are not non-nil.  Loop
      over the remaining windows that display the target buffer and
      make those windows display some other buffer.
    * vm-mime-set-extent-glyph-for-type: use a list of instantiators,
      use 'xpm instead of 'autodetect and fallback to [nothing] if
      instantiation fails.
    * vm-display-face: use the [nothing] instantiator on ttys.  XEmcas
      only.
    * vm-toolbar-install-toolbar: change toolbar size specifier on
      frame even if VM did not create the frame.  This reverses the
      change made in 6.32.
    * vm-isearch: call vm-energize-urls to light up the URLs after a
      search completes.
    * vm-set-window-configuration: return the window configuration we
      set.  A change in 6.32 caused this not to be done.  This confused
      vm-display which relied on the return value to determine whether
      vm-display-buffer needed to be called.
    * don't recognize <URL:...> as an URL if it contains a newline.
    * vm-scroll-backwrd: make argument optional.

vm (6.32-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * This is the first version built with cvs-buildpackage.
  * Removed examples subdirectory from the debian directory, instead, the
    directory is now tarred, gzipped, and uuencoded, and it is imploded
    and exploded on the fly.
  * New upstream bug fixing release. Excerpted changes:
    * vm-toolbar-install-toolbar: don't change toolbar size specifier
      on frame unless VM created the frame.
    * vm-mail-send: move attribute change before possible deletion of
      the buffer due to vm-keep-sent-messages == nil.
    * remove references to vm-record-current-window-configuration
      since it is not being used and will never be used.
    * vm-mouse-read-file-name-event-handler: don't delete the completion
      frame before reading keyboard input.  This should avoid making
      the user hunt for the frame that contains the correct minibuffer
      window to type into.
    * default value of vm-mutable-frames changed to t, and the
      semantics of this variable have been changed to hopefully be
      more like what users expect it to be.
    * use cache slot of MIME layout struct as an alist everywhere
      to avoid having display functions confuse each other with their
      different cache entries.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-image-xxxx: use device tag lists to have
      a text tag displayed on ttys and the image itself on image-capable
      devices.
    * added optional `to' argument to vm-mail commands.
    * mouse support changed so that it is installed whenever mouse
      support may be possible instead of only if it is possible on
      the current device..  Significant only under XEmacs currently.
    * use multiple frames on ttys, where available.
    * vm-scroll-forward: don't scroll if we're auto decoding MIME and
      the message needed to be decoded.
    * vm-mail-internal: support mail-personal-alias-file, fall back
      to ~/.mailrc if it is nil.

vm (6.31-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream bug fixing release. Excerpted changes:
    * vm-toolbar-support-possible-p: don't check device type, install
      toolbar if the 'toolbar feature is present.
    * vm-toolbar-initialize: check for device-on-window-system-p
      before looking at device-bitplanes, in case the selected device
      is a tty.
    * use '(win) tag sets on toolbar specifiers to prevent toolbars
      from being attached to non-window system frames.
    * vm-multiple-fonts-possible-p: conditionalize checks on
      XEmacs/Emacs to avoid looking at the window-system variable
      under XEmacs where it should not be used.
    * set scrollbar height only if (featurep 'scrollbar) and under
      XEmacs.  Previously we checked if set-specifier was fbound.
    * vm-mime-preview-composition: copy value of enriched-mode to
      the temp buffer so that the MIME encoding code knows what to do.
    * set perms to 600 on MIME tempfiles before writing to them.
      There's still a race window where access can be gained to
      such files, but it should be very small assuming NFS is not
      involved.
    * added new 'display-error' slot to the MIME layout struct to
      avoid overloading the cache slot... and fixed a bug thereby, due
      to vm-mime-display-external-generic trying to use the contents
      of the cache slot when there was an error message there.
    * vm-mime-display-internal-message/rfc822: bind buffer-read-only
      to nil before trying to insert text into the presentation
      buffer.
    * vm-burst-digest will now descend into nested MIME layouts to find
      digests to burst.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Mon, 12 May 1997 18:26:44 -0501

vm (6.30-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added an el package a la Emacs (the elisp files are nearly 1M!), since
    I think it is imperative that the uncompiled elisp files be available
    for users, but it is not reasonable to unconditionally chew up 1M of
    disk space.
  * Also install vm-vars.el into the doc (for the old regular package)
    directory, since not all customizable variables are documented
    elsewhere.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Sat, 10 May 1997 22:29:42 -0501

vm (6.30-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added README.hilit19
  * Added a menu entry for the HTML documentation

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Thu, 8 May 1997 01:58:21 -0500

vm (6.30-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream bug fixing release. Excerpted changes:
      * vm-mail-send: rename and/or delete the composition buffer
        before trying to make the replied/forward/etc. attribute
        change, since the user might abort that action.
        E.g. "... really edit the buffer?"
      * changed code to use XEmacs 20.2 MULE variables and functions
        instead of the 20.0 functions.
      * treat inlined message/rfc822 like multipart/mixed except we also
        insert the forwarded headers message and decode any encoded
        words in them.
      * support enriched-mode in composition buffers.
      * replaced some repeated calls to car with varrefs.
      * vm-make-presentation-copy: bind inhibit-read-only to disable
        read-only text properties before calling erase-buffer.
      * vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: don't insert a traling
        message separator if we're bursting the first message.
      * rewrote vm-menu-support-possible-p to not factor device type
        into it's decision.  For a multi-device XEmacs what is not
        possible now might be possible later, so let the menus be
        instaited even if they aren't necessarily visible on the
        currently selected device.
      * default value of vm-honor-mime-content-disposition now nil.
      * disable the setting of stack-trace-on-error for now.
      * fixed a few places where MIME layout vectors were created with
        too many slots and one place with too few slots.
      * Makefile: doc fixes
      * Shapiro typo fixes.

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 6 May 1997 16:24:08 -0500

vm (6.28-1) frozen unstable; urgency=medium

  * New bugfixing release. Vm has been in feature freeze for a while,
    and this release is quite stable (better than the 6.22 release
    available before).
    Excerpted changes:
      * added status messages for vm-mark-all-messages and
        vm-clear-all-marks.
      * vm-mime-set-extent-glyph-for-type: don't croak on unknown
        types.
      * vm-thread-mark-for-summary-update: when skipping already marked
        messages don't skip the part of the loop that moves the list
        pointer forward. :-P
      * rerun vm-menu-install-known-virtual-folders-menu after creating
        on-the-fly virtual folders because the folder menu gets hosed
        by the let-bound value of vm-virtual-folder-alist.
      * added hack to vm-mail-send-and-exit to try and imrpvoe window
        configuration behvavior under XEmacs when vm-keep-sent-messages
        is nil.
      * vm-mime-composite-type-p: don't consider message/partial and
        message/external-body as a composite types.
      * fixed nested MIME encoding to check types recursively all the
        way down to make sure the 7bit/8bit rules are followed.
      * vm-forward-message: use message/rfc822 instead of multipart/digest.
      * vm-send-digest: fixed preamble insert for MIME digests to
        insert into the composition buffer instead of directly into the
        digest buffer.
  * Added to postinst commands to remove obsolete references to vm in
    site-start.el files

 -- Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@debian.org>  Tue, 22 Apr 1997 01:46:16 -0500

vm (6.27-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream Source
  * excerpted changes:
      * vm-mime-rewrite-failed-button: add newline to displayed error
        string.
      * vm-menu-goto-event: use event-closest-point instead of
        event-point so that we get locality of point when a click
        occurs over a glyph (XEmacs only).
      * vm-mime-display-button-xxxx: say "attempt to display" instead of
        "display", as the button doesn't know if there is a functional
        display function for the type.
      * vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition: dropped calls to
        encode-coding-region for now.  They were screwing up marker
        positions.
      * vm-mime-xemacs-encode-composition: protect value of
        file-coding-system from changes when inserting attachment file
        contents.
      * vm-mime-display-internal-text/html: don't call w3-region if it
        isn't bound, just set error string and return nil.
      * vm-thread-mark-for-summary-update: don't mark if vm-thread-list-of
        slot is nil; use nil in this slot to mean we've already marked
        this message.
      * added missing application/octet-stream button display function.
      * Shapiro typo fixes
      * copied vm-note-emacs-version to vm-menu.el so that it is
        available at load time for use there.
      * converted mona stamps to XPMs as XEmacs can't display the GIF versions.
      * vm-mime-transfer-encode-layout: mark encoding in transfer
        encoded leaves, forgot this previously (oops).
      * default value of vm-mime-ignore-mime-version now t.
      * restored vm-xemacs-p, vm-xemacs-mule-p and vm-fsfemacs-19-p
        function to avoid breaking third party code that rely on them
        being present (sigh).
      * dropped vm-mime-attach-mime-file from the vm-mail-mode keymap and
        menu.
      * vm-show-list: binding to button release events in XEmacs didn't
        work.  Should probably use mouse-track hooks instead of binding
        keys but until we do that go back to binding button press events.
      * vm-mouse-get-mouse-track-string: check whether we're running
        Emacs/XEmacs rather than whether functions are defined to avoid
        using the wrong overlay/extent interface.
      * initialize mail-default-reply-to from REPLYTO environmental
        variable if value is nil (used to be if value is t).
      * vm: moved call to vm-preview-current-message after the summary
        generatation/display code.  The summary might completely
        obscure the view of the message buffer, so previewing should
        occur after that so that vm-show-current-message knows whether
        the message was visible and therefore also knows whether to
        mark the message as read.
      * vm-keep-mail-buffer: don't kill a buffer if it marked as
        modified, even if the number of `kept' messages would be
        exceeeded by keeping it.  Presumably if a buffer is modified
        the user has resumed composing in it and so we should not delete
        it.
      * added vm-mouse-send-url-to-netscape-new-window and
        vm-mouse-send-url-to-mosaic-new-window functions for use as
        values of vm-url-browser.
      * dropped use of vm-check-for-killed-folder in menubar and
        toolbar enabled-p functions.  We wrap troublesome calls to
        vm-select-folder-buffer in (condition-case ...) now to avoid a
        "Folder has been killed" error from hosing the toolbar/mnunebar
        and XEmacs permanently.
      * don't use application/octet-stream's button function for all
        application subtypes.  Added a separate function to be used for
        subtypes other than octet-stream.
      * vm-mime-attach-object: if type is nil, use text/plain as the
        type when calling vm-mime-set-extent-glyph-for-type.
      * don't fold content-disposition headers if
        vm-mime-avoid-folding-content-type is non-nil.
      * don't add an extra newline after the unfolded content-type of the
        last text subpart.
      * vm-mime-preview-composition: remove mail header separator after
        the message is encoded since the encoder won't work without it.
      * default value of vm-mime-avoid-folding-content-type now t due
        to pervasive broken Solaris sendmail installations that mangle
        the headers of messages with folded Content- headers.
      * vm-mime-make-multipart-boundary: shortened multipart boundaries to
        avoid long header lines when vm-mime-avoid-folding-content-type is
        t.
      * include the missing audio_stamp images in the distribution.
      * set version variables at startup and refer to them rather than
        calling vm-xemacs-p, etc. repeatedly.
      * vm-summary-highlight-region: overlays and extents aren't
        interchangable in this context, so behave based on Emacs/XEmacs
        version to avoid any overlay/extent emulations, and also to
        avoid having make-overlay's sudden appearance give us
        heartburn.
      * don't fset vm-extent-property, vm-make-extent, etc. unless they
        are undefined.  This is to avoid changing their definition in
        the middle of an Emacs session and thereby mixing usage the
        overlay/extent interfaces.
      * vm-mime-set-extent-glyph-for-layout: fixed reversed colorfulness
        test.
      * vm-mime-set-extent-glyph-for-type: mona_stamp is a GIF not an XPM.
      * more overlay/extent interface cleanup.
      * reenabled internal text/html code.
      * vm-yank-message: decode text/html and text/enriched in the
        composition buffer.
      * attach image glyphs to attachment tags in composition buffers
        (XEmacs only).
      * print a warning and continue if x-vm- header seems corrupted.
        old behavior was to just croak an error and wedge the mailer.
      * vm-print-message: default count to 1 if passed no arguments.
      * default value of vm-honor-mime-content-disposition now t.
      * Makefile: default VM build type is now back to `autoload'.
      * vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: use point instead of
        (match-end 0) when deleting the message separator.
      * vm-rfc1153-or-rfc934-burst-message: trim excessive newlines
        only after we know that we are looking at a valid message separator.
      * vm-su-message-id: discard chaff preceding message ID.
      * vm-mime-fragment-composition: 'send -> '8bit to match
        documentation of vm-mime-8bit-text-transfer-encoding.
      * vm-mime-fragment-composition: call vm-add-mail-mode-header-separator
        at the end so the buffer could be sent again.
      * vm-mime-preview-composition: call vm-remove-mail-mode-header-separator.
      * avoid starting new timers if old timers are still active (FSF
        Emacs only).
      * vm-mime-encode-composition: split code into FSF Emacs and
        XEmacs functions.  This should avoid mixing usage of the extent
        and overlay interfaces, which loses with Nuspl's overlay.el
        emulation.
      * default vm-temp-file-directory to C:\ if /tmp is not a directory
        and C:\ is.
      * use insert-file-contents instead of insert-file-contents-literally
        when inserting MIME attachments into compositions when encoding.
      * if vm-auto-displayed-mime-content-types or Content-Disposition
        says to display message/rfc822 or message/news inline and
        immediately display them as text/plain.  If displaying them due
        to button activation, use a folder instead.
      * use different menu for mailto: URLs since the old one didn't
        really do what it advertised, i.e. didn't allow mailto URLs to
        be send to other browsers.
      * added reduced color MIME art for 8-bit displays that used to only be
        used with displays with 16-bit or better displays.
      * cache MIME art image glyphs for reuse to save load time.
      * wrap calls to timezone-make-date-sortable in (condition-case ...)
        to avoid crashing on bad dates.
      * gave up on using frame-totally-visible-p since it is still
        broken in 19.15.

vm (6.22-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream bugfix release
  * Excerpted changes :
    * vm-save-folder: call clear-visited-file-modtime if folder was deleted
      to avoid "File changed on disk" warnings later.
    * vm-mime-qp-encode-region: bounds check (1+ inputpos) before using it
      to avoid referencing outside a clipping region.
    * vm-mime-encode-composition: do the insert/delete dance to avoid text
      leaking into overlays in the file insertion case.
    * vm-mime-encode-composition: insert-file-contents-literally doesn't
      move point. the code assumed it does and corrupted attachments as a
      result.
    * vm-gobble-crash-box: remove/rename crash box even if it is
      zero-length.

vm (6.20-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * BUG#7775 was already fixed in 6.18-2
  * New upstream version
  * Excerpted changes :
    * vm-menu-support-possible-p: allow menu code to operate under
      NextStep.  window-system == ns.
    * New variables:
      + vm-mosaic-program-switches
      + vm-netscape-program-switches
      + vm-mime-ignore-mime-version
      + vm-presentation-mode-hook (you were right, i was wrong)
    * vm-decode-mime-messages: run the highlighting code
    * vm-mime-display-internal-multipart/digest: copied folder display
      code from the message/rfc822 handler since they should work the
      same and message/rfc822 works properly with vm-mutable-windows
      == nil.
    * make gui-button-face be the unconditional default value for
      vm-mime-button-face.
    * vm-virtual-quit: make sure vm-message-pointer is non-nil before
      trying to run vm-message-id-number-of on it.
    * vm-howl-if-eom: don't search other frames for the buffer's
      window.  Under XEmacs calling select-window on such a window
      causes its frame to be selected and it stays selected despite
      the call being wrapped in a save-window-excursion.  I don't
      think we really want to report end of message status in a
      window in a non-selected frame anyway.
    * removed reference to user-mail-address variable, because it might be
      set to nil.
    * vm-show-list: bind command to mouse release events instead of
      mouse press events in XEmacs.
    * vm-preview-current-message: set vm-mime-decoded to nil; it is
      not enough to just let vm-make-presentation-copy do this.
    * use full contents of References headers to avoid
    * insert an X-Mailer in composition buffers.  Music!  Fun!  Horoscopes!
      And bug tracking.
    * New user data functions:
      + vm-user-composition-folder-buffer
      + vm-user-composition-real-folder-buffers
    * vm-print-message: make printing of MIME message work more like
      non-MIME messages; print visible headers, print tags for
      non-textual body parts.
    * vm-mime-insert-button: don't set keymap parent to be the
      current local map unless that map exists (i.e. is non-nil).
    * catch errors when decoding encoded words and substitute an error
      indicator for the string that we could not parse.
    * vm-set-xxxx-flag: don't set attribute flag until after the undo
      information is recorded.  The buffer modification might be
      nixed by the user via the clash detection query, so we need to
      be sure we're past that code before committing to the attribute
      change.
    * vm-set-labels: same as vm-set-xxxx-flag and for same reason.

vm (6.18-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fixed dww heading
  * New version from upstream with lots of changes.
  * Excerpted changes :
    * New variables:
      + vm-mime-composition-armor-from-lines
    * use Dispose menu as the mode menu in the presentation buffer.

    * returned to using the day's date as part of the saved crash box
      name used when vm-keep-crash-boxes is set.
    * added support for message/news type, which is handled mostly
      like message/rfc822.
    * new mime-dispose menu entries.
    * don't check again for new mail if we already know some is waiting.
    * add extended status reporting during POP message retrieval.
