* New packages and libraries within Gnus
\f
* Changes in summary and article mode
+** Gnus now supports sticky article buffers. Those are article buffers
+that are not reused when you select another article. *Note Sticky
+Articles::.
+
** International host names (IDNA) can now be decoded inside article bodies
using `W i' (`gnus-summary-idna-message'). This requires that GNU Libidn
(`http://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'
** You can replace MIME parts with external bodies. See
`gnus-mime-replace-part' and `gnus-article-replace-part'. *Note MIME
-Commands::, *Note Using 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
`message-fill-column'. *Note Message Headers: (message)Various Message
Variables.
+** You can now store signature files in a special directory named
+`message-signature-directory'.
-\f
-* Changes in back ends
+** 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-formated-citation-line' as well.
-** The nntp back end stores article marks in `~/News/marks'.
+** Gnus no longer generate the Sender: header automatically.
Earlier it was generated when the user configurable email address was
different from the Gnus guessed default user address. As the guessing
See the variables `message-required-headers',
`message-required-news-headers', and `message-required-mail-headers'.
+\f
+* 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'.
