Greetings all,

I am pleased to announce the long-awaited release of nmh 1.7!  You can
download it here:

  https://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/nmh/nmh-1.7.tar.gz

A GPG signature of this release is available here:

  https://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/nmh/nmh-1.7.tar.gz.sig

I've also included an external-body pointer both of these files below,
which can be used by capable MUAs to download them directly.

This release includes a LARGE number of changes, bug fixes, and enhancements.
The NEWS file contains greater details, but the hilights are:

- Complete unification of network security support. All network
  protocols (currently, POP and SMTP) have been refactored to use a
  common set of security routines. This means all protocols support all
  SASL mechanisms (via the Cyrus-SASL library) and TLS. TLS support
  has been strengthened to perform certificate name validation and to
  require TLS 1.1 as a minimum protocol.
- Included in the network security unification work is an implementation
  of the SASL XOAUTH2 security mechanism, contributed by Eric
  Gillespie. This allows improved security for Gmail users. See
  mhlogin(1) for more details.
- send(1) now supports adding switches to post(8) based on the address
  or domain of the email address in the From: header; this more easily
  allows users to support multiple identities.
- A generic facility for passing arguments to filter programs in repl(1)
  by the use of the -convertargs option.
- Native support for the manipulation of iCalendar requests; see
  mhical(1) for more details.

Thanks to all of the contributors for their hard work and to everyone
who tried out the release candidates and and gave feedback; it was much
appreciated.

As always, please address your feedback to [email protected]
