It takes messages sent to a mailing list, and distributes them to the list members. The features include support for several different languages (including different languages for different lists), support for moderated lists, an option to remove attachments, ability to add spam filters, and a number of other features. The latest version can be downloaded from http://www.pmoylan dot org/pages/os2/Major.html or from ftp://ftp.pmoylan dot org/Major/major_2.9.zip or from Hobbes incoming. The new feature is correct handling of HTML messages with plain text leader and/or trailer text added. This turned out to be trickier than expected, but I think I have finally tested all possibilities. Existing MM users whose lists use only plain text will see just one change: for a plain text message with attachments, and a list with "remove attachments" specified, the resulting message will have type multipart/mixed. I tried to get the obvious text/plain result in this case, but it turns out that that required a two-pass approach to move MIME headers to an earlier point in the message. The resulting code was so complex that I decided to go for readable code rather than minimal MIME structure. This version also fixes a long-standing bug: a 30-minute delay in responding to a Ctrl/C from the keyboard! -- Peter Moylan mailto://peter at pmoylan dot org http://www.pmoylan dot org -- For a choice in the future of personal computing, Join VOICE - http://www.os2voice dot org [Moderator's note: All posts are sent without guarantee to the accuracy of the content.
