RE: Aging Dependencies?

Let me know what I can do to help. In theory the Makefile captures most of the mechanics to generate a tarball,
and I can update www.beedub.com/exmh. Look at version.csh for hints. You'll want to update some of the
files like html/index.html and html/software.html by hand.
I'm looking at my CVS repository and I have a small number of changes I've accumulated. You'd want to vet
those changes to see if they work OK for you. It appears I added a number of timing things to the log, and I
removed the Fcache_RedisplayUnseen variable trace and do a more direct update in sequences.tcl.
Frankly, I'm not sure that's perfect so you'd need to validate that. I'm attaching the output of "cvs diff"
to this email.
I suggest that someone do the CVS commits to change the version to 2.8.0 (e.g.) and build the tar file - and
test it. I will pull that and use the html files to update www.beedub.com/exmh. I'll have to see about
updating sourceforge with the new tarball.
But, sadly I have to admit that I stopped using exmh about a year ago. A mobile work pattern puts me in a Windows
laptop environment for a big chunk of time, and all my Linux/BSD machines are in a server room. When the
Panasas IT guys upgraded our exchange server to require encrypted channels, and my desktop (which I now
don't use) got a new Ubuntu distribution, I failed to put my elaborate email tool chain back together. So
I've punted to the dark side. I even read email on my iphone sometimes.

Is the issue changing the web page? I guess we need to bug Brent Welch
about that. Or is there something else?

Actually ... one issue comes to mind.
When testing out replyfilter, I occasionally run across messages
that make it output warnings (see my email about Andreas's message).
That makes Exmh refuse to pull up an editor ... repl completes
successfully with an exit code of 0 and the draft is okay, but I
guess it's unhappy about the stuff on standard error. Is my
understanding correct? If so ... does that make sense? Should my
replyfilter (or repl) do something else with warnings?
