------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOFFLE NEWS -- User visible changes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.1devel -------- * Observe Expires: and Supersedes: headers. * Added post-locally option and '--post' command line option. * Add getgroups and omitgroups options. 1.0pre6 ------- * Add support for XOVER with no argument. Also XHDR with message ID argument and XHDR when 'xref' requested (trn needs this). * Forget cached group info when group database closed. * Added list of 'forbidden' newsgroup specs., as defined in draft IETF Newsgroup Format (C.Lindsey), tracked to replace RFC1036. This defines newsgroup names that should only be used for server-local groups and server pseudo-groups (e.g. INN's to.*, cancel, cancel.*, junk). These are now intercepted when querying server groups and ignored. Group names omitted are any single component names, any 'control.*', 'to' or 'to.*',and any with a component 'all' or 'ctl'. Note these restrictions do not apply to local group names. * Fixed problem with article numbering if the overview file empties, e.g. due to all articles in a very low volume group expiring. This would cause article numbers to be set back to 1 when a new article arrives. * Record newsgroup posting status. Enforce it at posting time. Added --modify to change newsgroup descriptions for all groups and posting status for local groups. * Added group deletion. * Added message cancellation - from command line or by control message. Note command line only cancels locally - it can't be used to cancel a message that has already gone offsite. A control messages cancels locally if possible; it is only propaged offsite if the target is in a non-local group and has itself already gone offsite. * Added wildmat code taken from INN - ensure Noffle wildcarding is exactly to spec. * Added group-specific expire times. * Noffle now sends a "MODE READER" command after connecting to the remote server. INN needs this before it will permit POST. * added support for local groups * new command line options --create and --cancel * Changed output of 'noffle -a all' to standard mailbox format, so that tools like grepmail work. * documentation updates * NOFFLE now uses the autoconf/automake build-system 0.16 - 1.0pre6pre ----------------- * See ChangeLog
