-
-
-* Supported Emacs versions The following Emacs versions are supported by No
-Gnus:
-
-** Emacs 22 and up
-** XEmacs 21.4
-** XEmacs 21.5
-** SXEmacs
-
-
-* Installation changes
-
-** Upgrading from previous (stable) version if you have used No Gnus.
-
-If you have tried No Gnus (the unstable Gnus branch leading to this
-release) but went back to a stable version, be careful when upgrading to
-this version.  In particular, you will probably want to remove the
-'~/News/marks' directory (perhaps selectively), so that flags are read
-from your '~/.newsrc.eld' instead of from the stale marks file, where
-this release will store flags for nntp.  See a later entry for more
-information about nntp marks.  Note that downgrading isn't safe in
-general.
-
-** Incompatibility when switching from Emacs 23 to Emacs 22 In Emacs 23,
-Gnus uses Emacs's new internal coding system 'utf-8-emacs' for saving
-articles drafts and '~/.newsrc.eld'.  These files may not be read
-correctly in Emacs 22 and below.  If you want to use Gnus across
-different Emacs versions, you may set 'mm-auto-save-coding-system' to
-'emacs-mule'.
-
-** Lisp files are now installed in '.../site-lisp/gnus/' by default.  It
-defaulted to '.../site-lisp/' formerly.  In addition to this, the new
-installer issues a warning if other Gnus installations which will shadow
-the latest one are detected.  You can then remove those shadows manually
-or remove them using 'make remove-installed-shadows'.
-
-** The installation directory name is allowed to have spaces and/or tabs.
-
-
-* New packages and libraries within Gnus
-
-** New version of 'nnimap'
-
-'nnimap' has been reimplemented in a mostly-compatible way.  See the Gnus
-manual for a description of the new interface.  In particular,
-'nnimap-inbox' and the client side split method has changed.
-
-** Gnus includes the Emacs Lisp SASL library.
-
-This provides a clean API to SASL mechanisms from within Emacs.  The user
-visible aspects of this, compared to the earlier situation, include
-support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM.  *Note Emacs SASL: (sasl)Top.
-
-** ManageSieve connections uses the SASL library by default.
-
-The primary change this brings is support for DIGEST-MD5 and NTLM, when
-the server supports it.
-
-** Gnus includes a password cache mechanism in password.el.
-
-It is enabled by default (see 'password-cache'), with a short timeout of
-16 seconds (see 'password-cache-expiry').  If PGG is used as the PGP back
-end, the PGP passphrase is managed by this mechanism.  Passwords for
-ManageSieve connections are managed by this mechanism, after querying the
-user about whether to do so.
-
-** Using EasyPG with Gnus When EasyPG, is available, Gnus will use it
-instead of PGG.  EasyPG is an Emacs user interface to GNU Privacy Guard.
- *Note EasyPG Assistant user's manual: (epa)Top.  EasyPG is included in
-Emacs 23 and available separately as well.
-
-
-* Changes in group mode
-
-** Symbols like 'gcc-self' now have the same precedence rules in
-'gnus-parameters' as other "real" variables: The last match wins instead
-of the first match.
-
-** Old intermediate incoming mail files ('Incoming*') are deleted after a
-couple of days, not immediately.  *Note Mail Source Customization::.
-(New in Gnus 5.10.10 / No Gnus 0.8)
-
-
-* Changes in summary and article mode
-
-** There's now only one variable that determines how HTML is rendered:
-'mm-text-html-renderer'.
-
-** Gnus now supports sticky article buffers.  Those are article buffers that
-are not reused when you select another article.  *Note Sticky Articles::.
-
-** Gnus can selectively display 'text/html' articles with a WWW browser with
-'K H'.  *Note MIME Commands::.
-
-** International host names (IDNA) can now be decoded inside article bodies
-using 'W i' ('gnus-summary-idna-message').  This requires that GNU Libidn
-(<https://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/>) has been installed.
-
-** The non-ASCII group names handling has been much improved.  The back ends
-that fully support non-ASCII group names are now 'nntp', 'nnml', and
-'nnrss'.  Also the agent, the cache, and the marks features work with
-those back ends.  *Note Non-ASCII Group Names::.
-
-** Gnus now displays DNS master files sent as text/dns using dns-mode.
-
-** Gnus supports new limiting commands in the Summary buffer: '/ r'
-('gnus-summary-limit-to-replied') and '/ R'
-('gnus-summary-limit-to-recipient').  *Note Limiting::.
-
-** You can now fetch all ticked articles from the server using 'Y t'
-('gnus-summary-insert-ticked-articles').  *Note Summary Generation
-Commands::.
-
-** Gnus supports a new sort command in the Summary buffer: 'C-c C-s C-t'
-('gnus-summary-sort-by-recipient').  *Note Summary Sorting::.
-
-** S/MIME now features LDAP user certificate searches.  You need to
-configure the server in 'smime-ldap-host-list'.
-
-** URLs inside OpenPGP headers are retrieved and imported to your PGP key
-ring when you click on them.
-
-** Picons can be displayed right from the textual address, see
-'gnus-picon-style'.  *Note Picons::.
-
-** ANSI SGR control sequences can be transformed using 'W A'.
-
-ANSI sequences are used in some Chinese hierarchies for highlighting
-articles ('gnus-article-treat-ansi-sequences').
-
-** Gnus now MIME decodes articles even when they lack "MIME-Version" header.
-This changes the default of 'gnus-article-loose-mime'.
-
-** 'gnus-decay-scores' can be a regexp matching score files.  For example,
-set it to '\\.ADAPT\\'' and only adaptive score files will be decayed.
- *Note Score Decays::.
-
-** Strings prefixing to the 'To' and 'Newsgroup' headers in summary lines
-when using 'gnus-ignored-from-addresses' can be customized with
-'gnus-summary-to-prefix' and 'gnus-summary-newsgroup-prefix'.  *Note To
-From Newsgroups::.
-
-** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies.  See
-'gnus-mime-replace-part' and 'gnus-article-replace-part'.  *Note MIME
-Commands::, *note Using MIME::.
-
-** The option 'mm-fill-flowed' can be used to disable treatment of
-format=flowed messages.  Also, flowed text is disabled when sending
-inline PGP signed messages.  *Note Flowed text: (emacs-mime)Flowed text.
-(New in Gnus 5.10.7)
-
-** Now the new command 'S W' ('gnus-article-wide-reply-with-original') for a
-wide reply in the article buffer yanks a text that is in the active
-region, if it is set, as well as the 'R'
-('gnus-article-reply-with-original') command.  Note that the 'R' command
-in the article buffer no longer accepts a prefix argument, which was used
-to make it do a wide reply.  *Note Article Keymap::.
-
-** The new command 'C-h b' ('gnus-article-describe-bindings') used in the
-article buffer now shows not only the article commands but also the real
-summary commands that are accessible from the article buffer.
-
-
-* Changes in Message mode
-
-** Gnus now defaults to saving all outgoing messages in per-month nnfolder
-archives.
-
-** Gnus now supports the "hashcash" client puzzle anti-spam mechanism.  Use
-'(setq message-generate-hashcash t)' to enable.  *Note Hashcash::.
-
-** You can now drag and drop attachments to the Message buffer.  See
-'mml-dnd-protocol-alist' and 'mml-dnd-attach-options'.  *Note MIME:
-(message)MIME.
-
-** The option 'message-yank-empty-prefix' now controls how empty lines are
-prefixed in cited text.  *Note Insertion Variables: (message)Insertion
-Variables.
-
-** Gnus uses narrowing to hide headers in Message buffers.  The 'References'
-header is hidden by default.  To make all headers visible, use '(setq
-message-hidden-headers nil)'.  *Note Message Headers: (message)Message
-Headers.
-
-** You can highlight different levels of citations like in the article
-buffer.  See 'gnus-message-highlight-citation'.
-
-** 'auto-fill-mode' is enabled by default in Message mode.  See
-'message-fill-column'.  *Note Message Headers: (message)Various Message
-Variables.
-
-** You can now store signature files in a special directory named
-'message-signature-directory'.
-
-** The option 'message-citation-line-format' controls the format of the
-"Whomever writes:" line.  You need to set
-'message-citation-line-function' to
-'message-insert-formatted-citation-line' as well.
-
-
-* Changes in Browse Server mode
-
-** Gnus' sophisticated subscription methods are now available in Browse
-Server buffers as well using the variable
-'gnus-browse-subscribe-newsgroup-method'.
-
-
-* Changes in back ends
-
-** The nntp back end stores article marks in '~/News/marks'.
-
-The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable
-'nntp-marks-directory', and marks can be disabled using the (back end)
-variable 'nntp-marks-is-evil'.  The advantage of this is that you can
-copy '~/News/marks' (using rsync, scp or whatever) to another Gnus
-installation, and it will realize what articles you have read and marked.
-The data in '~/News/marks' has priority over the same data in
-'~/.newsrc.eld'.
-
-** You can import and export your RSS subscriptions from OPML files.  *Note
-RSS::.
-
-** IMAP identity (RFC 2971) is supported.
-
-By default, Gnus does not send any information about itself, but you can
-customize it using the variable 'nnimap-id'.
-
-** The 'nnrss' back end now supports multilingual text.  Non-ASCII group
-names for the 'nnrss' groups are also supported.  *Note RSS::.
-
-** Retrieving mail with POP3 is supported over SSL/TLS and with StartTLS.
-
-** The nnml back end allows other compression programs beside 'gzip' for
-compressed message files.  *Note Mail Spool::.
-
-** The nnml back end supports group compaction.
-
-This feature, accessible via the functions 'gnus-group-compact-group' ('G
-z' in the group buffer) and 'gnus-server-compact-server' ('z' in the
-server buffer) renumbers all articles in a group, starting from 1 and
-removing gaps.  As a consequence, you get a correct total article count
-(until messages are deleted again).
-
-
-* Appearance
-
-** The tool bar has been updated to use GNOME icons.  You can also customize
-the tool bars: 'M-x customize-apropos RET -tool-bar$' should get you
-started.  (Only for Emacs, not in XEmacs.)
-
-** The tool bar icons are now (de)activated correctly in the group buffer,
-see the variable 'gnus-group-update-tool-bar'.  Its default value depends
-on your Emacs version.
-
-** You can change the location of XEmacs's toolbars in Gnus buffers.  See
-'gnus-use-toolbar' and 'message-use-toolbar'.
-
-
-* Miscellaneous changes
-
-** New user option 'gnus-rcvstore-options' provides a way to
-specify additional options when saving messages to an MH folder.
-
-** Having edited the select-method for the foreign server in the server
-buffer is immediately reflected to the subscription of the groups which
-use the server in question.  For instance, if you change
-'nntp-via-address' into 'bar.example.com' from 'foo.example.com', Gnus
-will connect to the news host by way of the intermediate host
-'bar.example.com' from next time.
-
-** The 'all.SCORE' file can be edited from the group buffer using 'W e'.
-
-** You can set 'gnus-mark-copied-or-moved-articles-as-expirable' to a
-non-'nil' value so that articles that have been read may be marked as
-expirable automatically when copying or moving them to a group that has
-auto-expire turned on.  The default is 'nil' and copying and moving of
-articles behave as before; i.e., the expirable marks will be unchanged
-except that the marks will be removed when copying or moving articles to
-a group that has not turned auto-expire on.  *Note Expiring Mail::.
-
-** NoCeM support has been removed.
-
-** Carpal mode has been removed.
