DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
MailMan patch XM*7.1*40 contains the following enhancements:
a) recognizes partial last name, partial first name for the first time ever
b) query by addressee's DUZ for the first time ever
c) query by addressee's nickname for the first time ever
3) enables 'Q name' to work on remote addressees for the first time ever!
a) recognizes partial last name
b) recognizes partial last name, partial first name
c) recognizes partial last name, partial domain
d) (does not work with I: or CC: remote addressees)
4) enables 'Q name' to work on devices and servers (D. and S.) for the first
time ever
3) improves display aesthetics
The following concerns the RECIPIENT multiple of the MESSAGE file:
The "C" cross reference data has always existed for the .01 field (RECIPIENT).
But... the DD has the "C" xref on field 1 (LAST RESPONSE READ).
So... We switch the xref in the DD from field 1 to field .01. as follows:
Routine XMYPRE1 deletes the "C" xref on field 1 (LAST RESPONSE READ).
The partial DD in this patch sets the "C" xref on field .01 (RECIPIENT).
Since the actual "C" xref data has always been on field .01, we don't need
to do anything with the "C" xref data - just leave it alone.
