noted in the "Transition" section.
! New in Alpha Release 4
======================
Outlook Plugin
--------------
! o Display a message for "Delete as Spam" or "Recover from Spam" when
! SpamBayes is not enabled.
! o The toolbar is now initialized when "Outlook Today" is the default view.
! POP3 Proxy
! ----------
! o Fix a bug where long attachments would be broken.
! o If an exception occurs parsing a message, recover and append a new
! 'exception' header.
! (This will be added to other SpamBayes applications by the next
! release).
! o Stop including the trailing dot in messages.
IMAP Filter
-----------
! o In imapfilter, try to append without flags if appending fails.
! o Fix the -i switch in imapfilter and an import error.
! o Don't try and get password from options if -p is specified in imapfilter.
!
! Developer
! ---------
! o Various changes/improvements to storage.py.
! Note that this includes a fix for a potentially serious bug introduced
! in a3 which could result in incorrect token counts.
General
-------
! o The web interface (used by pop3proxy and imapfilter) now shows the
! correct date and time in the footer.
! o A new stripper to squash yet another way of hiding content in HTML spam,
! like Ere<frame><noframes>ywl55</noframes></frame>ctions to hide
! Erections.
Transition

noted in the "Transition" section.
! New in Alpha Release 5
======================
Outlook Plugin
--------------
! o Added a diagnostics dialog with functions to make it easier for users to
! help developers track down and fix bugs.
! o Added a 'timer' method of determining when to filter mail that should work
! better with Outlook's rule system.
! o Added a button on the Advanced tab of the dialog to display the SpamBayes
! data folder.
! o Moved "Filter Now" to an item on the drop down menu on the toolbar.
! o Items that can be filtered and trained include "IPM.Note" (normal messages)
! and "IPM.Anti-Virus*" (virus alerts by some software).
! o Changed the default filter action to "move" (instead of "untouched").
! o Added a Wizard to assist with initial configuration (this will present
! itself when necessary).
! o Changed to allow filtering to be enabled, even if no training has been done.
! o Added a "New Folder" button to the folder selector dialog.
! o Massive changes to the dialog system (which should fix some problems),
! including changing the configuration dialog to a tabbed interface.
! o "Show Clues" now shows the percentage, as well as the raw score.
! o Added a "Help" menu to the drop down menu, with various information.
! o Added the ability to check for the latest version via an item on the drop
! down menu.
! o Hopefully, the "unread flag" issue is now fixed.
! o Fixed many problems with working on systems where English is not the
! default language, or where profile names have non-English characters.
! POP3 Proxy / SMTP Proxy / POP3 Proxy Service
! --------------------------------------------
! o Starting and stopping the POP3 Proxy service (for Windows NT, Windows
! 2000 and Windows XP users) has been improved. Most noticeably, this
! means that the SMTP Proxy will start (if it is needed) as well.
! o Improve the "notate to" and "notate subject" options, so that ham and
! unsure messages can also be (optionally) notated in these fields.
! o Add the ability to skip caching messages that are over a (user
! configurable) size, so that you can keep the size of the cache
! directories smaller, once these messages are correctly classified.
! o Added the ability to skip caching messages that have a precedence of
! "bulk" (most mailing list messages), so that you can keep the size
! of the cache directories (and review list) smaller, once these messages
! are correctly classified.
! o Fixed the "ASCII decoding error" problem.
! o The SMTP proxy tries harder to pass on the command formatted exactly
! as it was given. This should make it more reliable.
! o Add the ability to have the SMTP proxy train on the message sent to it,
! rather than looking up the id in the cache (which is still possible, and
! generally the better option).
! o Removed the ability to add the SpamBayes identification number to the
! body of messages (it can still be added as a header).
! o The review messages page now puts unsure messages at the top.
! o The POP3 proxy should now work with fetchmail.
! o You can once again specify local addresses as well as ports for the
! POP3 proxy to listen on (was broken in 1.0a3 and 1.0a4).
IMAP Filter
-----------
! o If you didn't use the -p switch to enter your password
! interactively, imapfilter would try and get it from the options,
! but if it wasn't there yet (because you hadn't done the setup yet),
! it would crash. This is now fixed.
General
-------
! o Added the ability to store the SpamBayes database in a mySQL or
! postreSGL database table (currently supported by hammiefilter and
! the POP3 proxy).
! o Removed the ability to use the 'dumbdbm' as the storage method.
! (See the FAQ for reasons why).
! o We now allow the '@' and '=' characters in paths.
! o Added a simple n-way classifier using a cascade of binary SpamBayes
! classifiers.
! o Added version information to the web interface.
! o Fixed the yellow colour of the header boxes in the web interface.
! o Fixed restoring defaults from the web interface.
! o Added a missing line break in the status pane on the web interface
! when there are no proxies configured.
! o Prevent the "Show clues" links on the web interface's training page
! from word-wrapping and making all the table rows two lines high.
+ Developer
+ ---------
+ o Created a directory for test suites, including a storage.py test.
+ o An empty 'allowed values' now allows an empty string.
+ o Add a get_option method, so an option instance itself can be fetched.
+ o Support fetching the "latest" set of version data from the spambayes
+ web site.
