Pine 4.56 is now available

This note is to announce the availability of the Pine Message System
version 4.56. This is a maintenance release with only a few new features.

Perhaps the most notable changes are bug fixes for broken "mbox"
functionality, for a crash when Taking to a Rule, for a crash when Sorting
on some IMAP servers, and for a problem when forwarding address book
entries and Taking them, which caused remote address book corruption.
There is some new support for reading news from more than one NNTP server,
a new tab-checks-recent feature to allow checking for new mail in a folder
without opening it, and a few other small improvements.

Specific information about changes can always be found in the built-in
release notes ("R" off the Main Menu), or via any of:
