Blat full changelog

Added new command line options -msgid and -addch2bin. The -msgid option takes a string which will be used in the Message-ID: header instead of the string created by Blat. The string will work best when enclosed by quotation marks ("). This request came from Christophe Ross on SourceForge.net, for use in sending control messages. For example:
-msgid "ThisIsAUniqueMsgId"
Heiko Mück, also on SourceForge.net, requested the ability to add charset="utf-8" to the Content-Type: header for binary attachments. This request allows him to be certified with his recipient. It seems to me his recipient might be receiving a mixture of ASCII and UTF-8 files from different locations, and want some to force senders to use UTF-8 for binary attachments (XML files).

Added -MDN option that allows Blat to be used for sending Message. Disposition Notifications in response to incoming emails through a third party email client. Supported MDN types are defined in RFCs 2298, 3798, and 8098. The defined types are: displayed, dispatched, processed, deleted, denied, and failed. When -MDN option is used with any of these six values, the message headers will indicate "MDN-sent-automatically" along with the requested MDN type, as part of a multipart MIME message. This option will not work with attachments or embedded files.
When using -priority with a zero value, Blat will set message headers "Priority: non-urgent" and "Importance: low". Blat has for years set these message headers "Priority: normal" and "Importance: normal" whenever priority was defined to be zero. Nissl Reinhard indicated Microsoft Outlook 2013 has been treating Blat messages as normal priority instead of the intended low priority.

[+] when parsing the command line, if the first character is a forward slash
(/), this is changed to a hyphen. BEWARE that this _will_ effect text
within strings, such as your subject line and message body.
[+] allow the use of normal command line options with -install. For example:
blat -install -server smtp.xyz.com -u me -pw goaway -try 1 -port 900
-f myemailaddy
[+] added -nomps to disable automatic multipart messages. If the message is
larger than the SMTP allows, Blat will exit with code 14.
[+] added support for Unicode files as the message body. The file content will
be converted to UTF-7 and the Charset changed also.
[+] added -attachI to allow inline text attachments, similar to the former
definition of -attachT.
[+] for the .DLL, created a cSend() entry point that uses C style entry/exit
code, for an Oracle database application.
[*] changed some of the help text, hoping to make it clearer.

· Changed subject handling to use Buf class, and to convert to UTF-8 right away, if necessary.
· Added quot;*** Warning ***quot; to certain messages related to authentication and message size. Added quot;*** Error ***quot; to additional messages related to
· authentication.
· Changed error messages related to opening / reading files to more accurately tell what the problem is. Previously, these messages simply said quot;Error reading ...quot;.
· Fixed a potential crash with the network connection code when an error occurs with the network.
· Fixed -tf/-cf/-bf option to permit Unicode file content.

· Make sure all uses of strncpy() properly terminate the target string, to eliminate a potential memory overrun.
· Attempt to fix a potential problem with time zone adjustments in the Date: header for locations that do not have daylight savings time.
· Fixed a memory leak in gensock_connect(), introduced at version 2.6.0.
