Version 3.7

Item posted by Sergey Poznyakoff <gray> on Fri 21 Jun 2019 01:15:09 PM UTC.

Version 3.7 of GNU mailutils is available for download.

This version introduces a new format for mailboxes: dotmail. Dotmail is a replacement for traditional mbox format, proposed by
Kurt Hackenberg. A dotmail mailbox is a single disk file, where messages are stored sequentially. Each message ends with a single
dot (similar to the format used in the SMTP DATA command). A dot appearing at the start of the line is doubled, to prevent it from being interpreted as end of message marker.

For a complete list of changes, please see the NEWS file.
