   * Pilot syncing updates; this is not used yet (Seth).
   
   * Many miscellaneous bugs fixed (everyone).

+Mailer:
+
+  Major features:
+
+  * Basic IMAP support (Jeff)
+
+  * Threaded message view (Michael, Chris Toshok)
+
+  * Filters now work (original work by Michael, bugfixes by Dan)
+
+
+  Smaller features:
+
+  * Implemented moving messages between folders (Dan)
+
+  * Very basic printing support (Dan, but it was only like 5 lines
+    of code, because gnome-print kicks ass)
+
+  * "Delete", "Forward", and "Refile" operations now work on
+    multiple messages. (Chris Lahey, Peter Williams, Dan)
+
+  * Toggle read/unread flag when the user clicks on the envelope
+    icon (Chris Lahey, Dan).
+
+  * The "New folder" menu item now works (Ettore, Dan).
+
+  * The filter/vfolder druid now uses the new shell folder selection
+    UI (Michael)
+
+  * Added "Cc" to the set of filter/vfolderable headers and make the
+    filter/vfolder "messages to address" rule work with to or cc.
+    (Dan)
+
+  * New key bindings: "Delete" deletes the current message and jumps
+    to the next undeleted message. "N" and "P" go to next/previous
+    unread message. (Dan)
+
+  * Keep asking for POP/IMAP password until the user gets it correct
+    or hits Cancel, and remember the result until the user exits (or
+    chooses "Forget Passwords"). (Dan, Jeff)
+
+  * Kludge Camel to output ISO-8859-1 instead of UTF-8, since
+    neither GtkHTML nor ETable supports UTF-8 still. (Dan)
+
+  * Use the gnome-vfs "sniff buffer" interface to try to identify
+    the MIME type of attachments without useful type information
+    (Dan)
+
+  * Allow saving drafts in the composer (Ettore)
+
+  * Added "Received date" header to the set of possible message list
+    headers. (Dan)
+
+  * Partial gladification of the config dialog (JP Rosevear)
+
+
+  Bug fixes:
+
+  * Message read/unread/deleted flags should now be saved reliably
+    when you exit, and summary should not be rebuilt when a rebuild
+    isn't needed. Expunging should work reliably (Dan, Ettore,
+    Jeff).
+
+  * Fix disappearing toolbar bug (Dan).
+
+  * Fixed a bug that made downloading of very large messages over
+    POP incredibly slow, and various other smaller POP bugs. (Dan)
+
+  * Fixed bugs that made large attachments sometimes get dropped and
+    small ones sometimes get truncated. (Dan)
+
+  * Fixed filter/vfolder "messages to address" rule to correctly
+    match "to" rather than "from". (Michael)
+
+  * Fix some text/plain formatting bugs in the composer. (Dan,
+    Ettore)
+
+  * Turn off search mode when getting new mail (to avoid corrupting
+    the display). Make "get mail" always put unfiltered mail into
+    Inbox rather than the current folder. (Dan)
+
+  * Fixed a bug that caused "Re:" to be prepended even to subjects
+    that started with "Re:" when replying. Added a default subject
+    to forwarded messages. (Dan)
+
+  * Make the "Attach" dialog in the composer remember the last
+    directory it was in. (Dan)
+
+  * Code to parse invalid date formats since some mailers generate
+    them... (Jeff)
+
+  * Fixed various small SMTP bugs (Jeff, Chris Lahey)
+
+  * Fixed some memory leaks (Peter, Jeff)
+
+  * Make replies use the text/plain part of a multipart/alternative
+    if the user configured plain text rather than HTML mail sending.
+    (Dan)
+
+  * Various config dialog fixes (Jeff)
+
+  * Partial filter/vfolder GUI facelift (Jacob)
