Changes Vr. 1.11 (2003-06-14)

• New: Saving info about deleted mails in a junk account can now optionally be skipped for mails deleted by MailFilt-KILLs, MailTrap-DELETEs or MailTrap-SCOREs below a given value. May be used to get rid of the well known spam but still keep the info for the doubtful ones.
  (HControl -> Config. -> Hamster -> Local Mail -> Save info/but skip)
   
• Chg: Additional line in junk backups giving the final score of Mail Traps, also shown in the subject of the mail now.
   
• Chg: Report "Mail Transfer": Added "Total" row and "Filtered %" column.
   
• New: Added new Mail Trap selections named '(contents)' and '(raw contents)'. Both extract and decode all text parts of multipart MIME messages, so you can filter on text contained in base64-encodeded parts with them.
  Selection '(contents)' additionally strips HTML <tags> from 'text/html' parts, so "hidden" words like "SPA<!--xyz-->MMER" or "SPA<xyz>MMER" are revealed as "SPAMMER" and can easily be filtered on. Web or image links are not stripped completely in this case, they are just converted to the unified format " [ URL ] " and remain filterable.
   
• Chg: Mail Trap test window modified:
  - Results are now updated automatically and immediately whenever the text of the message to be tested changes, either by pasting text from clipboard or by changing it manually.
  - A new page shows the text that is actually used for filtering with given header selections (e. g. with the new '(contents)' selection).
   
• Chg: Envelope lines at the very beginning of mail files placed in Mail.Out have their space after the colon back. It is removed when sending.
   
• Fix: Some major and minor fixes related with mail forwarding, especially with local forward loops and if 'admin' was involved in it. {OZ/JH}
  - A mail could get lost if forward settings gave no final recipient for the mail and just forwarded it around in a loop configuration. Such mails now cause a 'no recipient' error mail sent to 'admin'.
  - If 'admin' itself was part of a forward loop, error mails were also forwarded - causing forwarded error mails - causing ... - R.I.P. If delivery for 'admin' fails, such mails are directly stored in his mailbox now after an attempt to forward them has failed.
  - A "Received:" comment is added to all forwarded mails and this one can't be turned off by configuration to prevent from unterminated mail loops. The only somewhat "personal" information in it is the user ID of the account, that caused the forward.
   
• New: Daily maintenance now creates a daily "Spam Report" mail and sends it to a given account (default: admin). It lists Filter/Subject/From of all mails, that were filtered since last run.
  (HControl -> Config. -> Hamster -> Local Mail -> Send summary ...)
   
• Chg: Internal mails (created by Hamster) now have MIME headers declaring the active (Windows) character set. No encoding takes place, just to define the charset for any 8Bit characters in the body part of the mail (e. g. quoted Subject/From headers of filtered spam).
   
• Marked changes provided by: {OZ} Olivier Zolli, {.../JH} with major modifications by me.
