Short: UUCP Mail-Reader, version 5 (5.42)
Author: amk@zikzak.in-berlin.de (Andreas M. Kirchwitz)
Uploader: amk@zikzak.in-berlin.de (Andreas M. Kirchwitz)
Type: comm/mail
AmigaElm Electronic Mail Reader for all known UUCP packages (Amiga,
Smith, Dillon, Feulner, wusel etc.), easy to install and to
use. Mostly compatible with Unix-elm (basic functions) and
lots of additional features. AmigaOS 2.0+ required.
Basic internal support for MIME (multimedia mail) and en-
cryption/decryption (eg, with PGP). Also supports "metamail"
and "reqtools" library 2.x.
This is version 5 (5.42), Shareware, binary only. Registered
version comes with full C source (and has better support ;-)
(concept based on hwr-mail by Heiko W. Rupp)
Author: Andreas M. Kirchwitz
Changes since version 4:
- Now when launching programs, AmigaElm checks return code and
pops up requester if command wasn't found or returned != 0.
- New script "DecodeNeXTmail" decodes NeXTmail and shows
contents in raw format.
- Some experimental RFC1522 handling (special chars within header) for
incoming mail. Please, don't expect this to be a full-blown RFC1522
support - IT IS NOT. And you're still NOT ALLOWED to use special
chars (eg, 8-bit-chars) within the header of outgoing mail.
- Special chars in own realname of outgoing mail are now automatically
encoded according to RFC1552. You're still NOT ALLOWED to use special
chars (eg, 8-bit-chars) within other header fields of outgoing mail.
- Improved ^L (formfeed, ctrl-l) handling.
- If Elm runs in its own window and is iconified, the close gadget is
no longer ignored. It will exit Elm (w/o saving the folder) like it
does in un-iconified state.
- Title bar displays current page number and total number of pages.
(proportional font is recommended ;-)
- If in iconified state, window title was wrong sometimes.
[still doesn't work... sigh, -amk]
- New menu entry (with shortcut) for iconifying Elm's window.
- A "From " line followed by a ">From " line (generated by some
mail-list software) is now recognized as beginning of a new
mail message.
- Keeping of old UID/GID of folder had never worked. Works now!
- Fixed bug: "Send-off Window" didn't always open on same screen
as Elm's main window (but on default screen).
- On change folder (key 'c') status flags of messages in current
folder (recognized by its message-ids) are no longer preserved.
Status flags are only kept when resyncing (re-read) current folder.
- On index screen, command key "=" jumps to first message in folder.
- Command keys "j" and "k" now skip over deleted messages, "J" and "K"
do not (like Unix-Elm). Keys "j/J/k/K" will also work from within
builtin pager.
- Environment variables LINES and COLUMNS override window bounds
from Amiga console.device.
(if env vars are set, no CSI sequence is sent)
- Bounce-Flag for mails wasn't saved.
- MIME-Encoding "7bit" (Send-off Window) now re-enabled to strip off
8th bit in messages. German umlauts (Σ÷ⁿ▀─╓▄) will be converted.
