GNU Mailutils is a collection of utilities for handling electronic mail.
It contains a series of useful mail clients and servers built around
the single core library.

  an outgoing message correctly adds `In-Reply-To' and `References'
  headers.
  New command `setenv' allows to set and examine environment
  variables.
  
* New library libsieve supports Sieve language as described in
  RFC 3028 and provides a mechanism for dynamic loading of
  user-defined actions, tests and comparators.

* sieve: Supports full set of actions and tests. Addition of new
  commands is possible on platforms supporting dynamic linking.

* mail.local is now able to execute arbitrary sieve scripts before
  final delivery.
