  • debian/1.12.13-1
    maildir-utils Debian release 1.12.13-1
    
  • upstream/1.12.13
    Upstream version 1.12.13
    
  • v1.12.13
    Stable release 1.12.13.
    
    This contains improvements to the build process, the
    Guile/Scheme binding ("SCM") and a new experimental "labels" sub-command. Let's
    start with that last one.
    
    * Labels
    
    There's a new, experimental feature: *labels*. Labels are similar to the
    existing "tags", but better integrated with both mu and mu4e,
    
    You can search for message with a given label using 'label:', e.g
      $ mu find label:tupperware
    
    Or add/remove labels, e.g., remove the label "planet" and add the label
    "dwarf-planet" to all messages that have "pluto" in their subject:
    
      $ mu labels update "subject:pluto" --labels -planet,+dwarf-planet
    
    Clear all labels from messages with the label "boring":
    
      $ mu labels clear "label:boring"
    
    Labels are only stored in mu's database, and do not write to the message file
    themselves. I.e., when you remove your database, your labels are gone. However,
    you can use the `mu labels export` and `mu labels import` to save/restore them;
    see the mu-labels(1) man-page for details.
    
    In mu4e, you can do the same using `mu4e-headers-mark-for-label` (bound to `l`)
    and clearing with `mu4e-headers-mark-for-unlabel` (bound to 'L').
    
    I.e., mark some messages (or the current one by default), and in the
    headers-buffer type
       l -planet +dwarf-planet RET
    This works similar to the other marks.
    
    There's autocompletion as well, both for search (label:) and marking (after +/-)
    
    It's experimental, but it seems quite useful so far. See the man-page for
    further details.
    
    * SCM
    
    The SCM/Guile bindings have been improved substantially; some common operations
    are much faster (algorithmically). Also, the "glue" was added to interact with
    Emacs and the "geiser" package, either with or without mu4e.
    
    For the "plain Emacs" integraticon, see the Mu-SCM documentation, section
    `Hooking up with GNU/Emacs and Geiser'.
    
    For the mu4e integration, see the chapter `Using mu's SCM/Guile integration' in
    the mu4e reference manual; or check the `mu4e-mu-scm-server' configuration
    variable and the `mu4e-mu-scm-repl' command.
    
    Future version will add more, and start answering questions like "Why would I
    even want SCM bindings?!" :-)
    
    * Building
    
    - by default, tests are built 'lazily', i.e., only when running tests;
      this speeds up the build considerably for people that don't want to run
      tests (there's also -Btest=disabled of course)
    
    - when available/found, mu now (by default) uses the system versions of CLI11
      and libfmt, rather than mu's "vendored" versions.
    
      You can influence where the build system (i.e., meson) looks through the
      `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` environment variable (see the pkg-config/pkgconf man-pages),
      and you can disable

  • upstream/1.12.12
    Upstream version 1.12.12
    
  • v1.12.12
    stable version 1.12.12
    
        New stable version. Some small fixes and doc updates; big new thing are
        the new SCM bindings (under scm/), which will replace the
        long-deprecated old bindings (under guile/).
    
        Overall:
    
        - In 'mu init', --my-address has been renamed into --personal-address
          for consistency. The old name still works.
    
        Mu4e:
    
        - Emacs bookmarks can be now also be created for mu4e queries; see
          the mu4e-emacs-bookmark-policy defcustom
    
        - Support dash when completing maildirs
    
        - Add defcustom for mu4e-compose-jump-to-reasonable-place, so it can be
          overridden, e.g. in compose hooks.
    
        - In mu4e, make indexing snappier when there no new messages
    
        SCM:
    
        - Experimental new Guile bindings under scm/, including a reference
          manual and unit tests.

  • v1.12.11
    9b5ed2d3 · bump version to 1.12.11 ·
    New stable release v1.12.11
    
    Mostly to fix #2847, but with some doc fixes as well.
    
  • v1.12.10
    998a6448 · bump version to 1.12.10 ·
    Stable release 1.12.10
    
    Some bugfixes, documentation improvements minor features; some internal rework.
    
    - add --format=json2 for `mu find`, which produces a bit more 'idiomatic' json
    - close notifications once done
    - more informative mu4e-analyze-last-query (include all parameters)
    - Make mu4e-maildir-shortcut and mu4e-bookmarks understand a property
     :hide-if-no-unread, which hides the maildir/bookmark from the main-view
      if there are no unread messages which the corresponding query.
    
  • debian/1.12.9-1
    maildir-utils Debian release 1.12.9-1
    
  • upstream/1.12.9
    Upstream version 1.12.9
    
  • v1.12.9
    Stable version 1.12.9
    
    - Some fixes and documentation improvements, as well as some new features:
    
    - new command mu4e-analyze-last-query which shows information about
      how the server interpreted the last query; this can be useful if you
      don't get the result you expected.
    
    - When you ask for bookmarks or maildirs through mu4e-search-bookmark or
      mu4e-search-maildir, unread counts are displayed in the (default)
      completions UI next to the maildir or bookmark. If you don't want to
      see these counts, set mu4e-hide-short-counts to non-nil.
    
    - experimental: a "transient" menu, which provides easy access to some
      common (and some not so common) functions in mu4e. For now, you can
      enable this with:
    
          (require 'mu4e-transient)
          (global-set-key (kbd "C-c m") #'mu4e-transient-menu)
    
      This requires you to have the "transient" package, which means Emacs
      28 or later or alternatively you can install it manually. As stated,
      it's experimental and will be change / expanded over time, but already
      I find it quite useful.
    
    - gnus mailing-list management commands such as
      gnus-mailing-list-subscribe, gnus-mailing-list-unsubscribe now also
      work in mu4e. Also available through the transient menu.
    
    - The mu server uses PCRE-compatible regexps (for addresses), which are
      not necessarily compatible with Emacs regular expressions. However,
      mu4e can now automatically translate; this depends on the ~pcre2el~
      package which the user should install when using regular
      expression-addresses.
    
    - the cleanup phase after indexing has been sped up significantly
    
    - updated documentation; man-pages and mu4e reference manual

  • upstream/1.12.8
    Upstream version 1.12.8
    
  • v1.12.8
    Release 1.12.8
    
    New stable release, with bug fixes and a few featurerettes:
    
    - documentation improvements
    - removal of the old threading option and cleanup
    - 'lazy' indexing  is even lazier (faster)
    - make references (the References:/In-reply-to: headers) searchable
      (with "references:" or "ref:"
    - add new combination-field "related:" to search by msgid: _or_
      references:
    
    In mu4e (see docstrings for details):
    - new command 'mu4e-view-jump-to-mime-part', to jump to some mime part
    by number.
    - new variable mu4e-trash-without-flag, if set to non-nil, "trashing" a
    message will _not_ add the "T" flag.
    
  • debian/1.12.7-1
    maildir-utils Debian release 1.12.7-1
    
  • upstream/1.12.7
    Upstream version 1.12.7
    
  • v1.12.7
    stable release 1.12.7
    
    - many documentation fixes
    - mu4e: fix some mu4e-compose-captured-message corner case (#2745)
    - mu4e: fix 'user-agent' field (#2750)
    - few tiny tweaks
    
    However biggest change is regarding mu's "threadiness" with respect to
    Xapian. For a while, some people, ran into Xapian database
    corruptions (I've seen it very occasionally, some people more often);
    issue #2706.
    
    I don't know the precise cause, but it seems to be related to using
    threads with Xapian; the mu code in this area hasn't changed much, so
    perhaps newer Xapian versions are less forgiving? Anyway, this is all
    speculation. Database corruption with mu is not catastrophic, since you
    can always rebuild it without data-loss; however, it's still annoying
    and we'd obviously want to avoid that.
    
    1.12.7 includes a change to make the database access single-threaded
    again, which seems to help for this problem. We're really returning to
    the behavior some older versions of mu, with the difference that now
    you'll get a message in mu4e
    
    Cannot handle command while indexing, please retry later.
    
    Hope that doesn't inconvenience people too much. Might have a deeper
    look into when I have some more time and not in the 1.12.x series.
    
    (there's a meson flag to keep the existing behavior, see the commit
    message).
