JetMail versions history ======================== Version PL Date Changes -------------------------------------------------------------------- 0.99beta 15.01.94 - All areatags except the special areas are converted to uppercase. Too many people have complained about the case sensitivity. - All demokey restrictions (some functions wouldn't work with demokeys) removed. Demokey users should be able to test all functions of JetMail before paying for it. - Documentation updated. - I/O error while creating dummypackets fixed. - Cruncher total remaining message fixed. Bug occured when having more than 32000 messages in the message base. 0.99beta 02 16.01.94 - Problems with DummyPacket creating DPT files fixed. I start hating Binkley! :-) - Case sensitivity in AreaFix removed. 0.99beta 03 20.01.94 - You can now remove an area from [D]AREAS.BBS by stating REMOVE= All links of that area get an AreaFix disconnect request and a small note appended. - Domain parsing in UseAlias statements in CONFIG.JM and [D]AREAS.BBS fixed. - Hopefully fixed the QBBS lastread pointer bug. Please check. 0.99beta 04 27.01.94 - Cruncher debugging log message fixed. Hope that help's finding out what's wrong. [I'll thank god when this f**cking lastread bug is finally fixed!] - AreaFix list bug fixed. - Demokey decryption routine bug fixed. It was pure luck that ANY of the demokeys worked! JetMail now displays the expiration date while start-up. - REMOVE= works now. The notify messages now get the Kill/Sent message flag. 0.99beta 05 20.03.94 - FSC-0045 packet output corrected (domains in header were scrambled). - REMOVE= now case insensitive. - AKA adding now adds all aliases in all domains used in the export list of the specific area. - Writing of the -NoCPP flag to automatically added areas in DAREAS.BBS fixed. - Relinking of areas after automaticly disconnecting within five days now works. - NoConnect now implies -NoForce for the specified systems. - You can now use '+' instead of a forward list with RemoteAreaFix to mark the default forward host. If you define more than one default host in a certain domain, the last one is choosen. - The disconnect message generated by REMOVE= doesn't contain the notification after the tearline anymore. - REPORT bombed if the dupe and trash area weren't defined. - REMOVE= bombed if trying to remove passthrough area. - The import module now interpretes the DOMAIN kludge lines. - The new syntax for netmails via JetMail's internal domain gateway is now: To: %
The gated messages now gets a unique MSGID of the gating system. The original MSGID is kept in an ORIGID kludge. - A passthrough area is now never automatically removed if -GateTo is used. - New AREAS.BBS flag -NoRemote. Similar to -ForceConnect/-NoForce, -NoRemote is the negation of -Remote. This statement works only in conjunction with -Remote. - The default MaxMsgs is now 1500 due to LED's problems with areas with more than 1500 msgs. - Handling of local AreaFix messages fixed. - Small bug in AreaFix arealist output fixed (mixed upper-/lowercase group letters). - Now, all demokeys work. - Checks for "unprocessable addresses" removed while importing. - Announce area names were forced uppercase. - Checking for corrupted header while scanning the netmail area implemented. - New CONFIG.JM statement MinCrunch which prevents JetMail from crunching an area in which less than messages are to delete. - Announce mails are now registered as new and unread mail in LED's area dialog. - Keyword "MaxBuffer" replaced by "KeepMemory" to set how much memory should be kept free for the archiver programs. The default is to keep 200KB free. Example: KeepMemory 500 This keeps 500KB free memory. - Old KAOS/Mag!x/MultiTOS problem fixed which caused an "file access denied" under certain circumstances when starting JetMail with the parameters IMPORT SCAN. - New ExitInfo version released. Adds FILEFIX flag for JetMail's forthcoming FileFix feature and VERSION to test ExitInfo's version number. - New JetStat version. Bugs with high message counts fixed. Areatags are now cut if being longer than the column size in ECHOMAIL.HIS - When creating message base filenames for automatically added areas, 00-99 instead of 0-9 is now appended to already existing names. - New area flags "-OriginalEcho " to specify the name of the area under which the area is known to the network. So you can run Usenet's COMP.SYS.ATARI.ST under CSAST by defining: -OriginalEcho COMP.SYS.ATARI.ST G:\MSGBASE\INTERNET\CSAST CSAST 2:2456/95@fidonet.org So, LED users are able to distinguish very long area names. - Daniel Roesen's NeST address has changed to 90:400/602@nest.ftn, please update your address lists! - New ROUTE.JM statement: USE-ALIAS This one advises JetMail to use as From-address in netmail messages destinated to systems which match the specified patterns. Especially implemented for Albi! :-) 0.99beta 06 28.03.94 - Changed ReAddress logging so that the notice is logged AFTER the "Netmail...". - New ReAddress optional parameter "NoNotify" to disable the notice in the netmail that this netmail was re-addressed. This flag is useful for gateway-readdressing. - JetMail now forces setting up all three inbound pathes as there were too many problems with having just one. - JetMail's scanner now supports K/Sent message attribute. - ARCmail extraction bug fixed. - I forgot to mention in the last update's readme to mention that ZOOmail works now. 0.99beta 07 31.03.94 - I forgot to mention, that -NoForce works now. - Import statistic output concerning number of dupes & trashed messages fixed. - JetStat's TOP10.TXT output fixed. The right border of the box was too far left when having less that 10 areas. - -OriginalEcho bug fixed. Should work now. - ExitInfo utility fixed. 0.99beta 08 17.04.94 - ARCmail bug fixed, NOW! :-( - Removed areas via REMOVE= are now announced in the corresponding announce echo(s). - Netmail scanner bug concerning local AreaFix messages fixed. - JetMail's netmail gateway understands now both To: formats, the one with '%' and the one without. - JetMail now keeps the time of the last run in a file LASTRUN.SYS in his system folder to check if JetMail wasn't executed in the last 14 days. If this happens, JetMail aborts with a corresponding message. - ReAddress parser bug fixed. - Bug in LED.NEW writing appearing when using the -OriginalEcho feature fixed. - You can now send crashmail to points which are links of your system but don't carry the CrashOK flag. The Crashmail is then redirected to the boss of this point. - Areas in which messages to sysop were imported which were purged are not marked '*' in LED anymore. Also, former versions marked the netmail area with '*' although the netmails to you were readdressed to your sysop point. 0.99beta9 12.07.94 - CONFIG.JM re-writing fixed. - Supervise will now outline the network from/to addresses when processing netmail messages. - MonitorAreaFix renamed to MonitorFix. - Default KeepMemory set to 400kB - Maximum number of areas in forwarding lists set to 8192. - Bug fixed which caused JetMail to output messages to the screen under some circumstances. - JetMail screwed up automatic AreaFix requests following a forwarded area request when using a special area password. - My address has changed: Daniel Roesen 2:2454/114@fidonet.org This is now an official FidoNet address and so I'm worldwide listed again. - MSGID CRC calculation for local messages fixed. - Local ReAddress bug fixed. - Half-dynamical file handling system. This will be improved in further versions. - The CONFIG.JM "Address" parsing code bombed when an address like 90:400/602nest.ftn was specified (the '@' sign was left out). - CONFIG.JM statement "NoCopy" replaced by "Robots". see updated JETMAIL.TXT. All names specified after "Robots" are now known as automatic mail creators, so JetMail doesn't react if using -Signature, VacationDate or MonitorNetmail. Please re-read manual sections concerning VacationDate, NoSignature and Robots. - The maximum of areas in a forward list was raised to 8192. This should be enough for UseNet uplinks. - Default import buffer size raised from 2KB to 8KB.
