  • Emai//er 2.1.0 for Enhanced //e and GS with Uthernet-II

    This release adds a few new features to v2.0.0, and fixes a few bugs and annoyances also.

    New functions include:
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` now remembers the current mailbox and message upon termination and goes back to the same place on startup. This makes working with the helper applications (AO-D "Date", OA-R "Receive Email", OA-S "Send Email", CA-R "Receive News", CA-S "Send News") far more convenient.
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` now move downs to next message automatically after
    'D)elete' and 'U)ndelete' operations (the same way that 'T)ag' has always worked). This allows lots of email messages or news articles to be deleted
    by simply holding down 'D'.
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` now supports Real time clocks. If a clock is present, `EMAIL.SYSTEM` will call the ProDOS driver to get the up-to-date time and
    date every time a datestamp is required. In addition, the time displayed
    at the top right hand corner of the summary screen will refresh regularly,
    so the current time is always displayed.
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` handles UTF-8 character encoding better now. Multibyte characters are understood as such and are shown as a single '#' character (rather than a '#' character per byte, as before.)
    - `NNTP65.SYSTEM` now supports a kill-file for filtering out addresses
    that spam Usenet. If the file `KILL.LIST.CFG` exists in the same directory
    as the Emai//er programs, `NNTP65.SYSTEM` will check the sender address of
    each news article against each line in the kill file. If the kill-file
    text is a substring of the sender address, the message will be discarded.
    This seems to be quite effective at killing the spam in comp.sys.apple!
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM`: The detection of MIME boundaries has been made more
    robust.
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` now decodes Base64 and Quoted Printable encoding for
    Subject headers and displays the decoded text.
    - `EMAIL.SYSTEM` now shows a spinner while a mailbox is being loaded.

    Enjoy! And please report any bugs you find using the 'Issues' tab on
    GitHub.

    Of course, immediately after posting this I found a bug. I just posted v2.1.1 on Github with a fix.

    That sounds like a Murphy's Law....
