[ANN] mail Gem version 1.3.0

[Mikel Lindsaar]

[Note: parts of this message were removed to make it a legal post.]

So, mail Gem version 1.3.0 has been released.

The upgrades have been mainly in getting ActionMailer to work with Mail
instead of TMail.

This really put Mail through it's paces and I found a lot of little edge
case bugs to fix.

The good news is that ActionMailer now runs with Mail with all tests passing
on MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1

Mail of course, still passes all specs in MRI 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1

Basically, if you are using Mail 1.x, upgrade to the latest version, you
should not get any breakage in your code. Please let me know if you do.

Also, anyone using TMail could upgrade to Mail 1.3.0 now without loss of
functionality.

* Changed Encodings.param_encode(string) so it intelligently encodes and
quotes needed
items and leaves plain, no special char, US-ASCII alone unquoted.

== Sat Nov 14 08:20:21 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Resolved Issue #10 - empty/nil cc/bcc field causes exception
(Mail::Field:arseError)

readme

== Thu Nov 12 02:58:01 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Added ability to create new email via a hash or hash-like object. <mikel>
* Moved all of the Part init into the Message class. Part now just uses
Message's init,
also moved all the attachment related functions into Message. As Part is
a subclass
of message, you shouldn't see any interface changes here.

== Fri Nov 6 22:52:10 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* a6ef2b4: Fixed Issue #4 - Can't call encoding on non existant
content-transer-encoding header

== Fri Nov 6 00:51:55 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Handled unstructured field folding "blank" lines
* Fixed error in header.rb that created fields into an array, instead of a
FieldList, resulting
in mail.encode returning a random sort order on the header.
* Made unstructured fields attempt to decode their values on :decode

== Thu Nov 5 04:45:31 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* 2acb70a: Closes Issue #1 - Handling badly formatted content-type fields
<mikel>

== Wed Nov 4 23:24:32 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* 2b5d608: Closes Issue #2 - Empty header field values not parsing <mikel>
* Version bumb to 1.2.1

== Wed Nov 4 12:54:43 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Renamed Mail::Message.encode! to Mail::Message.ready_to_send!, deprecated
:encode! <mikel>
* Rewrote encoding and decoding methods on all classes. Adds a lot of
boiler plate code, but allows us to
be really precise in each field type that needs custom encoding. Now all
encoding is done by the field_type
itself. Need to follow through on the body. <mikel>
* Bump version to 1.2.0 due to changes of :encoded, :decoded behaviour
<mikel>

== Tue Nov 3 00:59:45 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Tested mail against entire Enron set (2.3gb) and the Trec 2005 set
(0.5gb), ~ half a million emails without crashing <jlindley>
* Some headers only can appear once, enforce during header parse assignment.
<jlindley>
* Convert empty bodies into empty arrays instead of nil. <jlindley>
* Handle blank content dispositions. <jlindley>
* Mention Trec 2005 Spam Corpus in readme <jlindley>
* Add 'rake corpus:verify_all' to allow parse checks in bulk. <jlindley>
* Added handling of multi value parameters, like
filename*1*="us-ascii'en'blah" filename*2="bleh" <mikel>
* Added dependency on ActiveSupport 2.3 or higher <mikel>

== Sun Nov 1 12:00:00 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* handle OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_NONE returning 0 <jlindley>
* doing Mail.new { content_type [text, plain, { charset => UTF-8 }] } is
now
possible (content type accepts an array) <mikel>

== Sat Oct 31 11:00:41 UTC 2009 Mikel Lindsaar <[email protected]>

* Fixed attachment handling, so mail can find attachment from a
content-type,
content-disposition or content-location
* Added content-location field and parser
* Added message.has_attachments? for ActionMailer friendliness
* Added attachment.original_filename for ActionMailer friendliness
