+ Revision 1.1 1995/08/07 21:09:19 ceharris
+ Final preparation for popclient 3.0b1 release
+
+This is a BETA release of popclient version 3. Little if any user support
+is provided for this version of popclient. Consider this BETA version to
+be a "developer/tester" release only.
+
+Release History
+
+3.0b5
+o "From " header fix in pop2.c and pop3.c
+o Surpress "..." output when --stdout option specified in pop3.c
+
+3.0b4
+o alloca fix.
+o various diagnostic/informational message fixes.

+ using POP3.
+o Support for retrieving only the first n lines of each message
+ when using POP3.
+o APOP authentication support.
+o Buffered socket input.
+
+3.0b2
+ This is a "new features" release.
+o support for .poprc file.
+o GNU-style long options.
+o fixed passwords appearing in 'ps' output
+o support for multiple servers on one command line
+
+3.0b1
+ This is mostly a test of the autoconfigure integration.
+Among the functions performed by the new configure script, is
+the ability to detect known system types, configures the mail
+delivery agent (MDA) correctly. This should permanently solve
+the problem of using something other than an MDA for mail
+delivery (which continues to plague Linux slackware 1.2.9).
+For this beta, please check the values of MDA_PATH and MDA_ARGS
+carefully. They should match the values found in your
+sendmail.cf file on the line which begins with "Mlocal".
+
+ Other changes from popclient version 2.21:
+
+o no longer uses getpass() from the C library. The
+ internal getpassword() function allows the use of long
+ passwords.
+
+o integrated GNU getopt() for long options. Long option
+ names will appear in a future beta.
+
+o Several compiler warnings fixed.
+
+o Fixed problems related to missing include files in
+ Solaris port.
