[grepmail-announce] ANNOUNCE: grepmail 4.51 released

[David C. <da...@co...>]

Description:
- grepmail is a Perl program that searches a normal or compressed mailbox
  (gzip, bzip2, or tzip) for a given regular expression and returns those
  emails that match the query. It also supports searches constrained by date
  and size.

Download:
- You can download grepmail 4.51 from CPAN:
  http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/D/DC/DCOPPIT/grepmail-4.51.tar.gz
- Until the file propagates to the mirrors, you can use the following URL:
  http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/grepmail/grepmail-4.51.tar.gz

Changes:
- Fixed a bug in attachment boundary matching which would cause the boundary
  match to fail if the boundary contained special pattern matching characters.
  (Thanks to Richard Everson for identifying the bug, and providing a sample
  email which demonstrates the problem.)
- Fixed a bug where grepmail would fail to print matching emails which had
  signatures, and added a test case for it. This bug was introduced with -B
  support in version 4.49.  (A *huge* thanks to Moritz Barsnick for reporting
  the bug and doing the initial analysis of the cause.)
- grepmail now dies gracefully when invalid patterns like "strcpy(" are
  supplied. (It should be "strcpy\(".)
- Added a check for Inline 0.41 or better during "perl Makefile.PL" when
  Mail::Folder::FastReader is selected to be installed. (Thanks to Brian L.
  Johnson for the problem report.)
- Modified Makefile.PL to ask whether the user wants FastReader regardless of
  whether they specified arguments to "make Makefile.PL".
- Modified Makefile.PL to allow the user to interactively specify the
  installation path.
- Fixed a typo in debugging output for emails without "Date:" headers.
- Improved error messages.
- Usage message now displays just the flags, --help shows a summary of their
  meanings as well.

Thanks,
David
