========================================================================
FIX15M2 is out, it includes:
- Fix for list owners case matching.
- Fix for LSVDBASE date bug, plus Q T was changed into diag C for better
compatibility.
- SUBSCRIBE now respects the 'NOTIFY' keyword when the list is BY_OWNER. It
also generates a new mailform ('SIGNUP1'), sent to the command originator
when his subscription is accepted.
- The DIST2 bug I mentioned has been fixed, and the path selection routine has
been completely rewritten using a more solid algorithm. This may require a
little more CPU (or sometimes less, depending on the case), but the results
are now cached in BITEARN DISTSUM so the overhead appears only once.
- INSTALL will now close the output file as SHIPMENT if the original filetype
was of the form 'nn-OF-nn'.
- LSVIMAIL has been completely rewritten to improve the usability of
mailforms. $DEFAULT MAILFORM has been rewritten to avoid placing text in
columns 73-, but there is no compatibility problem. The ADD1 mailform and
the new SIGNUP1 one now share a common sub-mailform, $SIGNUP, which contains
a standard blurb to be sent to all new subscribers, no matter how they got
on the list (thus there is only one mailform to change if you want something
different). This blurb contains conditional sub-blurbs, giving info about
list archives if the list does have archives, etc. There is also a paragraph
telling you how to signoff from the list, and telling you NOT to send the
command to the list, but I am sure that this will have little or no effect
on the amount of 'junk requests'. I plan to remove all the LSVREMRK stuff in
the future, and have it done inside the mailforms, but didn't have time to
do it today. This would completely solve the translation problem (new
language --> you need a mod to LSVREMRK :-( ).
- The PROFS mail problem should be fixed, but as usual I haven't been able to
test it. Please let me know if the problem still exists :-(
