+
+** Nemacs, Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.28 are no longer supported.
+
+** Wanderlust might not work with FLIM 1.14.2 and older.
+ It is recommended to use FLIM 1.14.3 or newer and associated SEMI.
+
+** Now available `make check' environment test for user.
+
+** If you set obsolete variables (e.g. renamed ones), Wanderlust shows warning
+ messages and urge you to change settings.
+ Please change your settings according to the messages.
+ To suppress warning messages, set elmo-obsolete-variable-show-warnings to
+ nil.
+
+** Added new internal folders: 'sendlog folder
+
+** Added new type of folders: shimbun folder
+
+ Format: '@' 'virtual server name' '.' 'group name'
+
+** Added new type of folders: namazu folder
+
+ Format: '[' 'search condition' ']' [ 'absolute path of namazu index' ]
+
+** With pipe folder, now you can preserve messages on the server.
+ At the next time you access it, only new messages will be copied.
+
+ Format: '|' 'source folder' '|:' 'destination folder'
+
+** Address manager is now available (start by C-c C-a).
+ You can edit address book and import recipients to draft from it.
+
+** ACAP (RFC2244) is supported(experimental).
+
+** Now you can preserve IMAP4 message by part as a cache.
+ If you skipped enormous part, you can read other than skipped part when
+ you are off line.
+
+** Wanderlust also creates message view through prefetching.
+ Displaying of prefetched messages speeded up because of this.
+
+** Truncation of lines in message buffer or draft buffer is now controllable.
+ Non-nil value of wl-message-truncate-lines or wl-draft-truncate-lines
+ means truncating long lines at window width.
+
+** Bitmap image for opening demo is removed from wl-demo.elc and now loaded
+ from wl-icon-directory.
+ Special logo is displayed through the Christmas season :)
+
+** Overall elmo module is rewritten.
+
+** Variables depending on elmo backends are renamed to "elmo-backend-*".
+ e.g. elmo-default-imap4-server is renamed to elmo-imap4-default-server.
+
+** Variables named xxx-func are renamed to xxx-function.
+
+** X-Face utility 1.3.6.12 or older is not supported any longer.
+ Please install X-Face utility 1.3.6.13 or later, if necessary.
+
+** Wanderlust distinguishes stream-type on plugged mode. They are treated as
+ different entries.
+
+** msgdb path for archive and multi folders are changed.
+ No problem for running wanderlust even if you do not deal with them.
+ But if you don't want to leave useless data on the disk, delete under
+ .elmo/multi and .elmo/archive in advance.
+
+** Variables named xxx-dir are renamed to xxx-directory.
+ e.g. wl-icon-dir is renamed to wl-icon-directory.
+ Take attention if you set for display of startup logo, etc.
+
+** elmo-cache-dirname is abolished and elmo-cache-directory is newly created.
+ You can put cache directory to another place by setting
+ elmo-cache-directory (e.g. for whom put symbolic link for ~/.elmo/cache
+ on NFS environment).
+
+* Changes in 2.6.0 from 2.4.1.
+
+** FLIM 1.13.x is not supported any longer.
+ Please install FLIM 1.14.1 or later.
+
+** Now folder and summary buffer can be opened in a separate frame.
+ If `wl-folder-use-frame' is set as t, `M-x wl' creates a new frame
+ for folder mode. If `wl-summary-use-frame' is set as t, new frames
+ are created for each summary window.
+
+** Cursor moving speed ('N' or 'P' in summary) is greatly improved.
+
+** Folder checking speed for filter folder of localdir
+ folder using `last' or `first' (Ex. /last:100/+inbox) is improved.
+
+** Retrieval progress of each message is displayed in POP and IMAP folder.
+
+** Coloring of summary buffer is processed on demand (only on Emacs).
+ If `wl-summary-lazy-highlight' is non-nil,
+ only visible portion of the buffer is colored.
+
+** Customizable biff notify.
+ New hook `wl-biff-notify-hook' and `wl-biff-unnotify-hook' is
+ now available.
+ e.g. (add-hook wl-biff-notify-hook 'ding)
+
+** Many bug fixes.
+
+* Version 2.4.1 is basically a bug fix version of 2.4.0.
+
+** Wanderlust 2.4.1 now works on FLIM 1.14.x.
+
+** Fixed a problem that POP connection remains after POP before SMTP.
+
+** The specification of IMAP4 authentication method for clear password
+ is changed.
+
+In 2.4.0, To use clear password authentication method in IMAP4
+(Logging in with LOGIN command), you have to set the variable
+`elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type' as 'plain (or nil).
+But in 2.4.1, it is changed to 'clear (or nil).
+Example:
+(setq elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type 'plain)
+should be changed to
+(setq elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type 'clear)
+
+* Changes in 2.4.0 from 1.1.1.
+
+** Version Number
+The version numbering convention for Wanderlust is changed.
+
+In earlier versions, 1.x were stable version and from 2.0.x to 2.2.x
+were beta version. But since version 2.3.0, the second (minor) version
+number implies the stability of the Wanderlust. Even minor number
+corresponds to a stable version, and an odd minor number corresponds
+to a development version. This version numbering is based on the
+widespread convention of open source development.
+
+On the open CVS server cvs.m17n.org, main trunk contains the current
+beta (newest experimental) version, and branches contain the stable
+version. (If the version is 2.4.x, the branch name is wl-2_4)
+
