Pluto 2.02 01.04.00 1. Threads can now be sorted by Subject, Status, date-of-First-article, or date-of-Last-article, or score of highest scored article. This can be set for a sorting type from: Preferences->Sorting The supplied !Pluto.Choices.Display file now includes Thread-status, Thread-subject and Thread_score sorting types. Thread-status is useful as the default sorting type for newsgroups and mailing list because it brings threads which include new unread articles to the top of the newsgroup. Within each Status threads are shown in order of their highest scoring article. 2. Scores can be given to articles by using Filters. If more than one Filter applies to an article, the scores can be combined using add, subtract, multiply or divide operators. Article scores are in the range -9999 to +9999. 3. Preferences->Filters allows to you specify: Score below which articles are automatically discarded Score below which articles are marked as Read rather than Unread Score above which articles and threads are shown with a Tick beside their status icon in article lists. 4. The Status section of the article list and article viewer menus now includes a choice to allow you to change the score of stored articles. Pluto 2.01h 20.03.00 1. Opening an HTML attachment by double-clicking on it's attachment icon will include "related" image files in the browser display. Pluto 2.01d 13.03.00 1. Menu-click on a URL in text brings up a menu of actions: send mail, add to CC or BCC, add to address book, fetch web page, view message-id, lookup deja-news etc 2. Attachments which are split over several messages. Select the messages then use Export->Multi-part from the article list menu. The messages much have Subjects ending in a serial number of the form [1/3] or (1/3) or 1 of 3 so that Pluto can determine the correct order. 3. Adjust-click on the Save button in the Write News or Write Mail window saves the article in the appropriate Log box with a new status type "Draft". Opening a "Draft" article returns it to the Write News or Write Mail window. The "Draft" article is deleted when the message is posted. Pluto's autosave feature now saves to a "Draft" article in the Log box rather than to a text file in !Pluto.Backup. In this case, the "Draft" article is shown listed in grey rather than black to indicate that it will be deleted if the Write News/Mail window is explicitly discarded by the user. A new status icon in the Sprites15 file ("stat_17") is used to "Draft" articles. 4. Threading display for messages. A new copy of the file !Pluto.Choices.Display is included which has a sorting type of "Threads". This is like the "Newsgroups" sort, but messages are sorted by their message-id references rather than simply by Subject. If you keep Pluto's "Choices" directory somewhere other than in !Pluto.Choices (such as in !Boot.Choices) then you must copy the Display and Setups files into there from the !Pluto.Choices directory. This features involves a change in the format of Pluto's Articles files. Pluto will run its article Repair function when it's first run, to convert the articles files to the new format. In order to add message-id information to previously stored articles, you will need to run Misc->Compile_References_Index from Pluto's iconbar menu. This will read the internet headers of all the stored articles and add the message-id information to Pluto's index. This can take a long time to run if you have a large number of stored articles. The maximum number of References message-ids that Pluto stores in its index is determined by Preferences->News/mail->Keep_references If you are short of RAM memory on your computer, set this to 1 to minimise the size of Pluto's index (!Pluto.Articles.Cards) which it keeps in memory. A large value will enable Pluto to construct threads by linking articles to their distant ancestors even if the immediate parents are missing. CTRL-I and CTRL-SHIFT-I in the article list will shift the threaded display to the left and right. This is useful if you have a large number of levels of indentation. CTRL-A on an article in a threaded display will select articles at the same level and lower as the selected article. 5. Preferences->Delivery->Local_mail option added. This causes mail which you send to your own addresses to be delivered interally without being sent to your ISP and back. V 1.14b 1. Fix leap-year bug. V 1.14 09.02.00 1. "Fetch bodies" list is shown in the outgoing "Q" window, so you can Hold and Unhold it (i.e. defer the fetches until later). 2. A new "Mail List Server" type added in the User Edit dialogue. "Restricted" means that only messages from subscribed members will be broadcast automatically. Non-subscribed posters receive an error response. (I'll not be using this for the Pluto-L list) 3. Cancelling a Search will keep any articles which have been found so far. 4. Content-transfer-encoding: uuencode and Content-transfer-encoding: x-uuencode attachments now supported. 5. New option: Preferences->Delivery->Obey_Status_O The Status: O line in a message is only obeyed if this option is set. If set, then "Status: O" causes a message to be debatched as "Unread" (orange) rather than "New Unread" (red). 6. Debatch only changes "New unread" (red) to "Unread" (orange) in a Box if some "New" articles in that Box were read since the previous Debatch. An option: Preferences->Delivery->Change_new_to_unread controls whether this applies per Box, per Source/Newsgroup, or for all (as previously), or None (i.e. New->Unread isn't done automatically). New->Unread can be done manually with Articles->Change_new_to_unread 7. The "header only article" indication in the article list (grey subject name) is now shown for groups of articles (Subject, Newsgroup) if all articles in the group are header-only. 8. Reply-Forward from the Reply dialogue now includes "Forwarded message - From, Date, Subject" at the start of the text, and precedes the Subject title with "Fwd: ". A new option "Reply-Re-send" has been added to re-send a copy of a message (eg. from your Log box). 9. 3-choice error boxes used for "Include original CC addresses?" "Message contains non ISO-8859 characters" 10. Fixed crashes: - F6 in article list - Open a selection of Boxes after a Debatch 11. Addresses in the To: and Cc: lines now take precedence over the Envelope-To: line in determining which of the user's email addresses a message is addressed to. This is needed because with domain forwarding the Envelope-To: line doesn't contain the original address. 12. "Status" field added to the "Search & Select" dialogue (under the "More" section). This allows articles of a specified Status to be selected (eg. Unread, Locked, Replied) V 1.13f 23.11.99 1.

UUE/MIME selector in the Write Mail window how has MIME/RISC OS and MIME/PC options. MIME/PC adds a filetype extension to attachments and uses "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" rather than "Content-type: application/riscos" for non-recognised filetypes. 3. Killfile button added to the article list window to kill the currently selected thread. 4. Bug fixed in setting passwords for Boxes (which Pluto sometimes forgot). V 1.13b 1. To set up a text message to be sent to anyone who subscribes to your mailing list, put a text file in !Pluto.Choices.MailLists.SIGNON_MSG whose filename is the same as the mailing list name (eg. pluto-L ) 2. Option added to the User Edit dialogue to prohibit news posting from a user email address. This can be used to ensure that this address is not used in news postings. 3. "Search & Select" dialogue now includes a "Signature" option. The signatures of articles are only searched if this is ticked. 4. "From" user field added to the Bounce Messages dialogue, so you can select which User you are bouncing from. V 1.13 1.

Selecting from the address book puts the Name rather than the Alias into a field. Hold down Shift to use the full email address instead. 2. Initial-select-user option. Opens the Users List full size. Users List closes when the User has been selected. 3. Special header lines in internet header are shown at the top of the text window. (Followup-to, Newsgroups, Reply-to, Resent-to, Resent-from). CTRL-SHIFT-E (allow edit) causes header lines to revert to their original sequence. An option has been added to Preferences->Colour to specify their colour. 4. If you give a Source name an "explanation" name (in Lists->Sources) then this will be shown instead of the Source name in article lists. 5. Use MimeMap module if present. 6.

Unread articles are not expired unless the "Expire Unread Articles" option is set for the box. 4. Exporting from article lists: Pluto now picks up the default filename ("ExportOut") from the "Export" template in the !Pluto.Templates file, so you can change it with a template editor if you wish. 5. Cancel button added to the "Expiring Articles" window. This allows the expiry to be aborted. 6. Strip Internet Headers wasn't working on Filtered articles. Fixed now. 7.

Sorting now treats accented characters as the same as their non-accented version. 9. Added a Menu to the Newsgroups List window. V 1.09b 1.

Multi-tasking operation is speeded up by having a minimum time of 100mS between wimp polls. 7. Sending replies to emails with very long To: or Cc: lines. Pluto creates a temporary distribution list if there are too many addresses to fit into the CC field of the Write Mail window. 8. Fix. Adding keywords to an article (or lengthening its Subject title) sometimes caused a corruption in the article index, and duplicate copies of the article. This should now be fixed. 9. Fix. Multiple CC's were not being carried forward into an email reply. 10. Fix. Absurdly long From: lines in incoming messages could cause crash or corruption. V 1.08i 1.

V 1.08c / V 0.44c 1. Made multi-tasking an option in Preferences->Misc. It was causing hugh slowing down for *some* people (perhaps depending on what version of RISC OS, and what other programs are running). V 1.08 / V 0.44 1. Multi-tasking provided for: debatching, remaking index, article search/select 2. Option (in Preferences->News) for automatic periodic running of Debatch routine. 3.

Use the specified colour when showing the Author field in article lists. b. Replace the full address in messages by the Name field. This can be useful if someone uses different addresses, but you want all his messages to be sorted together. 8. Mail list message now recognised correctly if the mail list address was in the Cc: line. 9. Probable fix to the problem where Log copies of messages are sometimes not kept, leading to "???" appearing in the Waiting-to-be-Sent list. 10.

Added command line parameter -nowindow so Pluto can be started from the Boot sequence without opening its Boxes List window. 3. Adjust-click on Post button leaves the Write News/Mail window open after posting. V 1.06e / V 0.42e 1. No longer replaces the full address in incoming messages by the Name in the address book.
