Instead, a number -of variables starting with `gnus-treat-'. +** Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used No Gnus. +If you have tried No Gnus (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this +release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading +to this version. In particular, you will probably want to remove the +`~/News/marks' directory (perhaps selectively), so that flags are +read from your `~/.newsrc.eld' instead of from the stale marks file, +where this release will store flags for nntp. See a later entry for +more information about nntp marks. Note that downgrading isn't safe +in general. +** The nntp back end store article marks in `~/News/marks'. + +The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable +`nntp-marks-directory', and marks can be disabled using the (back +end) variable `nntp-marks-is-evil'. The advantage of this is that +you can copy `~/News/marks' (using rsync, scp or whatever) to another +Gnus installation, and it will realize what articles you have read +and marked. The data in `~/News/marks' has priority over the same +data in `~/.newsrc.eld'. + +** Picons can be displayed right from the textual address, see +`gnus-picon-style'. *Note Picons::. + +** You can import and export your RSS subscriptions from OPML files. +*Note RSS::. + +** The option `mm-fill-flowed' can be used to disable treatment of +format=flowed messages. Also, flowed text is disabled when sending +inline PGP signed messages. + +** You can now drag and drop attachments to the Message buffer. See +`mml-dnd-protocol-alist' and `mml-dnd-attach-options'. *Note MIME: +(message)MIME. + +** The option `message-yank-empty-prefix' now controls how empty lines +are prefixed in cited text. *Note (message)Insertion Variables::. + +** ANSI SGR control sequences can be transformed using `W A'. + +ANSI sequences are used in some Chinese hierarchies for highlighting +articles (`gnus-article-treat-ansi-sequences'). + +** International host names (IDNA) can now be decoded inside article +bodies using `W i' (`gnus-summary-idna-message'). This require that +GNU Libidn (`http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/') has been installed. + +** Gnus includes an Emacs Lisp SASL library. + +This provide a clean API to SASL mechanisms from within Emacs. The +user visible aspects of this, compared to the earlier situation, +include support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM. + +** ManageSieve connections uses the SASL library by default. + +The primary change this brings is support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM, +when the server support it. + +** Gnus include a password cache mechanism in password.el. + +It is enabled by default (see `password-cache'), with a short timeout +of 16 seconds (see `password-cache-expiry'). If PGG is used as the +PGP back end, the PGP passphrase is managed by this mechanism. +Passwords for ManageSieve connections are managed by this mechanism, +after querying the user about whether to do so. + +** IMAP identity (RFC 2971) is supported. + +By default, Gnus do not send any information about itself, but you can +customize it using the variable `nnimap-id'. + +** The `all.SCORE' file can be edited from the group buffer using `W e'. + +** Gnus now MIME decode articles even when they lack "MIME-Version" +header. This changes the default of `gnus-article-loose-mime'. + +** Gnus now view DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode. + +** Gnus now support the "hashcash" client puzzle anti-spam idea. See +the Gnus manual, section Hashcash, for more information. Use `(setq +message-generate-hashcash t)' to enable. + +** Gnus supports new limiting commands in the Summary buffer: `/ r' +(`gnus-summary-limit-to-replied') and `/ R' +(`gnus-summary-limit-to-recipient'). *Note Limiting::. + +** Gnus supports a new sort command in the Summary buffer: `C-c C-s C-t' +(`gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient'). *Note Summary Sorting::. + +** The `nnrss' back end now supports multilingual text. Non-ASCII group +names for the `nnrss' groups are also supported. *Note RSS::. + +** URLs inside OpenPGP: headers are retrieved and imported to your PGP +key ring when you click on them. + +** Gnus uses narrowing to hide headers in Message buffers. The +`References' header is hidden by default. To make all headers +visible, use `(setq message-hidden-headers nil)'. + +** `gnus-decay-scores' can be a regexp matching score files. This +allows to decay only adaptive score files. *Note Score Decays::. + +** S/MIME now feature LDAP user certificate searches. You need to +configure the server in `smime-ldap-host-list'. + +** Strings prefixed to the `To' and `Newsgroup' headers in summary lines +when using `gnus-ignored-from-addresses' can be customized with +`gnus-summary-to-prefix' and `gnus-summary-newsgroup-prefix'. *Note +To From Newsgroups::. + +** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies. See +`gnus-mime-replace-part' and `gnus-article-replace-part'. *Note MIME +Commands::, *Note Using MIME::. + +** Lisp files are now installed in .../site-lisp/gnus/ by default. It +defaulted to .../site-lisp/ formerly. In addition to this, the new +installer issues a warning if the other Gnus installations which will +shadow the latest one are detected. You can then remove those shadows +manually or remove them using `make remove-installed-shadows'. + + +* For older news, see Gnus info node "New Features". + +---------------------------------------------------------------------- +Copyright information: + +Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + + Permission is granted to anyone to make or distribute verbatim copies + of this document as received, in any medium, provided that the + copyright notice and this permission notice are preserved, + thus giving the recipient permission to redistribute in turn. + + Permission is granted to distribute modified versions + of this document, or of portions of it, + under the above conditions, provided also that they + carry prominent notices stating who last changed them. + +Local variables: +mode: outline +paragraph-separate: "[ ]*$" +end:
