SortMail lets you search incoming mail for messages containing configured
addresses, user names, subjects, etc.  Once a message is found, SortMail
can do one or more of the following:

  · Copy or move it to another conference

  · Save it to disk

  · If it is a digest; split it into seperate messages

  · If it is an Aminet RECENT listing; parse it into the filebase and/or
    display a list of new files in the New Files window

  · Execute external ARexx scripts.  A script for running executables is
    included

Possible uses for SortMail include sorting mailing list messages into
seperate conferences, moving messages from certain persons into their own
conference, maintaining an index of files available on AmiNet and saving
messages from mailing bots to disk.

Through the use of external ARexx scripts you can also add new functions
yourself.

SortMail will also write log messages addressed to the user with warnings
and errors that occured while processing the messages, information from the
AmiNet RECENT messages and optionally statistics on SortMail's doings.

In other words it is not of any use for people without an Internet Email
address.

3.0 (24.5.96)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ

New    · Completely rewritten
       · New trigger based configuration system
       · Execution of external scripts
       · Saves messages to disk
       · Splits MIME multipart messages (commonly used for digests)
       · Digest splitting no longer requires you to configure a
         "end-of-digest" line, SortMail will find it itself
       · New and more intuitive CfgSortMail
       · Can be run both from Thor and the Shell command line
       · Renamed to SortMail.br since it no longer requires Thor to run
       · Uudecoding removed since it is now automatically done by Thor
       · ...and a whole lot more


3.1 (14.6.96)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ

New    · SortMail can now be forced to match all search criterias in a
         trigger.  Default: only one match required
       · More info is shown in trigger listview
       · Made it possible to rearrange triggers in CfgSortMail

Fixed  · Saving of messages would fail if the NOBIN switch was used
       · KEYWORD would appear in the cfg file even when it wasn't used
       · Reply address wasn't always properly set when parsing digests
       · Local2Email.br would fail on crosspostings.  Thanks to Andreas
         Baum for fixing this one
       · Improved non-MIME digest splitting a bit


3.2 (8.7.96)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ

New    · It's now possible to specify a destination system for copied
         messages and splitted digests
       · The RECENT parser now lets you decide whether to add the files to
         the file database or not.  If not, the files will only be shown in
         the New Files window.  Might be useful on slower machines

Fixed  · Further improvements and fixes in digest splitter
       · Local2Email didn't replace local conference names on replies


3.3 (24.8.96)
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ

New    · Support for multiple systems
       · SYSTEM is now a required argument when running SortMail from Shell
       · RECENT parser can be configured to disable adding of MOTD & stats
       · RECENT parser now supports exclusion of both parent and child dirs
       · Local2Email.br now has proper support for crossposting and
         multiple recipients
       · Wrote an Installer script

Fixed  · When two entries in a list had the same name the first one would
         always be selected.  Worked around this by numbering the entries
       · Local2Email would sometimes spread data for one event onto others.
         Also improved the general behaviour
       · RECENT messages with no new files listed could cause trouble
       · A few minor quirks here and there
