One problem we have run into with mh-e and nmh 1.5 is that mh-e is no
longer able to read the comp formfile directly. That's because of
some dynamically generated content, isn't it?
Right now we are changing the code to use comp to generate a draft and
then reading that in. That requires creating a temporary directory
and running comp there. That insures that we can read message 1.
What can we do to simplify this? The obvious answer would be to add a
-build flag to comp as is supported on repl and forw.
Thanks
Jeff

So it's been more than a year since the 1.5 release ... and I'm thinking
it's time to start working on 1.6. I think that 1.5 holds up pretty
well so I'm not itching to get 1.6 out of the door right now, but there
is some cool stuff in the master branch that would be nice to get out
there. But I still want to get some things in there, so here's what I
was thinking about getting working for 1.6.
- Support character set conversion for mhshow(1) using iconv
- Adapt meillo's changes to mhshow(1) so each MIME part doesn't use their
own pager.
- Maybe make mhshow(1) the default instead of show(1).
- Always run mhbuild on outgoing drafts.
- Have mhbuild handle RFC-2047 encoding
- Support RFC 2231 MIME extended parameter encoding and decoding
And to borrow a management term, some "stretch" goals are:
- Support the composition and display of format=flowed messages.
- Add encryption/decryption support via external programs (like openssl,
gpg, etc).
- Design a proper MIME multiplexing architecture that can handle things like
having repl decide which MIME parts to select from a message to include in
a reply. Maybe via mhl?
Anything else that strikes people's fancy? Obviously preference will be
given to items that include coding resources :-)
