Version 0.3.1 - 13 April 2002
* Added a lot more information to the manpage, including examples and
notes.
* Fixed up the README file and archivemail usage message.
* Added an example archivemail shell script that I run from crontab.
Version 0.3.1 - 12 April 2002
* Stopped calling 'gzip' externally and started using the gzip library
so that we can append to a copy of the gzip archive directly.
* Removed 'bzip2' and 'compress' options since they are increasing
complexity without adding much, and needed to be called externally.
Maybe when python gets a bzip2 library I will add back an option to
compress archives using bzip2.
* Included a man page & sgml docbook source.
Version 0.3.0 - 11 April 2002
* We now preserve the last-accessed and last-modified timestamps correctly
* We now preserve the correct permissions on the original mailbox instead
of always mode 600
* Fixed a bug where lockfiles were being created that were not
world-readable
* Made archivemail work better when used as a python module so it can
integrate better with unittest. (... although I still distribute it
without the .py extension - dodgy?)
* Bundled a unit-testing script for archivemail
* Started using a distutils 'setup.py' script for installation.
Version 0.2.1 - 4 April 2002
* Since we might not have a parse-able 'Date-Received' or 'Date' field,
use 5 different ways to guess the date of a message.
* Removed the '--use-mtime' option since it is obsolete -- we will always
use the file modification time for the message if other date-parsing
methods fail.
* Check to see if we are running as root -- if so, change our
effective userid and groupid to that of the original mailbox. This will
make sure any archives or tempfiles we write have the same ownership and
will allow the root user to do "archivemail /var/spool/mail/*"
* Fixed a bug where if you ran 'archivemail.py foo/mbox' it would create
the archive file in the current directory instead of the directory 'foo'.
Version 0.2.0 - 3 April 2002
* Added support for reading from MH mailboxes
* Refuse to proceed if we would be making tempfiles in world-writable
directories
* Clamped down with lots of assert()s checking function parameters
* Complain earlier if we do not have permission to write to the output
directory
* Use the 'Date' field of a message when constructing the 'From_' line
from a maildir/MH mailbox if there is no 'Delivery-Date' field.
Version 0.1.0 - 31 March 2002
* Initial release
