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' 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.
+
\f
* New packages and libraries within Gnus
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.
+** Gnus includes a password cache mechanism in password-cache.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
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.
+
+\f
+* Changes in group mode
+
+** 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)
+
+
\f
* Changes in summary and article mode
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
(`http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/') has been installed.
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.
+
\f
* Changes in Message mode
removing gaps. As a consequence, you get a correct total article count
(until messages are deleted again).
+
\f
* Appearance
** The tool bar has been updated to use GNOME icons. You can also
-customize the tool bar. There's no documentation in the manual yet, but
-`M-x customize-apropos RET -tool-bar$' should get you started. (Only
-for Emacs, not in XEmacs.)
+customize the tool bars: `M-x customize-apropos RET -tool-bar$' 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
** 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::.
