VM 8.1.92a

  IMPROVEMENTS

   * Headers-only mode for IMAP folders is now completed. It operates
     by fetching messages into the Folder buffers, leading to a
     more reliable operation. (However, there is an important
     outstanding bug. See the file README.headers-only.)

   * New command `vm-list-imap-folders' can be used to list the
     folders on an IMAP server.

   * In headers-only mode, a limited number of messages can be fetched
     on demand for message preview. New variable
     `vm-fetched-message-max' specifies this number. (Default is 10.)

   * New variable `vm-imap-default-account' allows IMAP-FCC copies to
     be routed there.

   * New variable `vm-imap-server-timeout' allows timeout during a wait
     for output from an IMAP server.

   * New variable `vm-imap-ensure-active-sessions' asks VM to ensure
     that an IMAP session is active before issuing commands.

8.1.x branch:

    * Virtual folder facility extended to work with POP and IMAP folders.

    * VM made safe for use with Gnu Emacs 23, by removing a few calls
      to the `next-line' function (which was redefined in this Emacs).

    * Several critical problems with Thunderbird inter-operability
      were corrected. Manual section on Thunderbird folders added.

    * Extended Org mode email links to work for virtual folders.

  CHANGES

   ** The default values of `vm-pop-expunge-after-retrieving' and
      `vm-imap-expunge-after-retrieving' changed to nil to help new
      users.

    * `vm-fill-long-lines-in-reply' initialized to the default value
      of `fill-column'.

    * All MIME messages are now decoded in the Presentation buffer,
      unless they have US-ASCII as their charset. In particular,
      messages with 8bit charsets are treated this way. Such messages
      are not regarded "plain messages" any more.
