Changes: 1.2 - 28 Nov 94 New features: ------------- * The mail gateway can send back automatic acknowledgments of messages. The automatic response can be extremely customized. Essentially, the whole mail-gateway was rewritten in preperation for 2.0. See man req-mailgate for details. * The mail gateway can detect certain subject headers and automatically take various actions. * Req now prints one line in a log-file for every action it takes. This file, along with `reqtail' can be used to keep an eye on what's going on. * An emacs request-queue-mode is available. Plus, there's another one in the contrib/ directory. * There's a cron file that will glimpse index the requests and an interface (reqglimpse) that will search the requests. Tweaks: ------- * `req -user ' lets you set the user of the message. * `req -unresolve ' works * `req -unstall ' works * A statistics programs for users that can be used in autoreplies to let people know just how big the queue is. * When you run req in interactive mode from the command line, it prompts you. * You have to unresolve a request before you can take it. This is to keep people from accidentally taking resolved things. * You have to unresolve a request before you can merge it with another one. Same reason. * `q -owner' defaults to the user running it. * Tried to make upgrading relatively simple by modifing a lot of the configuration code. * More configuration options. Bugs fixed: ----------- * Fixed 'opened by daemon' message when comments were added via mail. * extract -DMAIL bugs fixed. * Lots of Makefile things. But they're still ugly. * Others. 1.1 - 22 Sep 94 * Changed the MAIL define in Makefiles and extract to BUILD_FOR_MAIL * Added the INSTALL definition. * Renamed getdate() to this_getdate() for sysV conflicts. * Put in ftime() crufty code. * Send mail to req@ccs, not systems@ccs. * Advised not to use [Req #foo].
