FAQ 1-2

Question 1.2

What’s new in 5.10?

Answer

First of all, you should have a look into the file GNUS-NEWS in the toplevel directory of the Gnus tarball, there the most important changes are listed. Here’s a short list of the changes I find especially important/interesting:

• Major rewrite of the Gnus agent, Gnus agent is now active by default.
• Many new article washing functions for dealing with ugly formatted articles.
• Anti Spam features.
• Message-utils now included in Gnus.
• New format specifiers for summary lines, e.g., %B for a complex trn-style thread tree.
