Newsman Pro 2.6 Released



New in this release:

* Changed the tab order of the controls on the message
composition window to allow tabbing from the Subject
line directly into the body text.

* Added post process scripting to the Queue. The scripts
are triggered when all of the jobs in a defined set
have completed. Scripts affecting attachments are
triggered after the last attachment in the defined
set is Auto-Saved. Non-attachment scripts are
triggered by the next Scheduler cycle after the jobs
in the set have completed.

* Fixed a bug in the MySQL database components that caused
a low-level error when attempting to connect to a
MySQL server running on Ubuntu Linux.

* Fixed a potential thread collision that could occur when
the minimum disk space threshold was reached and NMP
was set to stop all activity when triggered.

* Fixed a bug in the Scheduled Task editor when creating
a new task and using ADS as the database engine.

* Added a timer to the hints in the Connections view to
clear the mouse-over hint after 3 seconds.

* Changed the way the pane auto-focus operates so that
the lists will not grab focus if the current active
control is an edit box (for example: Quick Filter).

* Fixed a bug that prevented previously downloaded
messages from being Auto-Saved when Queuing
messages for download, including the previously
downloaded message in the selection, and using a
priority level other than "Normal".

* Added an option to have the status bar flash "Check
Error Log" when any errors are posted to the Error
Log.

* Added "Auto" color options for the Stripe and Line colors.

* Added file check for the NZB import code to skip NZB
files passed to NMP via Windows that are no longer
available, or have been moved.

* Added a context menu to the Trash browser with a
"Select All" menu item. This will select all
records in the Trash that are currently loaded
in the Trash browser.

* Added .P## extensions as compressed archives.

* Added .### extensions as compressed archives.

* Added .### as recognized binary extensions for filters.

* Removed trailing backslash from initial default "Batch
Imports Path".

* Fixed saving sort order when changing the sort of an
aggregated newsgroup.

* Fixed a bug in the Automation Rules when displaying
rules with scoring while using MS-SQL.

* Fixed a selection error when attempting to delete a
group and the selection was invalid.

* When editing the message list background color, you
will now be asked if you want to use the same
background color for the special status color pairs.

* Modified "Automated Subfolder using Regex" process to
not add to Queue and messages that do not match the
specified search pattern. Any unprocessed messages
will be reprocessed after a new search pattern is
specified until all messages are processed, or you
decline to specify a new search pattern.

* Optimized the "Get Headers By Date" search algorithm
further in order to better deal with groups with
large blocks of missing headers.

* Added additional code to "Get Headers By Date" search
algorithm to prevent rescanning of headers.

* During an automated optimization, the trash section of
the status bar will now read "Optimizing...".

* Fixed a bug in the Global Header Search introduced with
the new "Score" column that prevented the message
list from functioning correctly when the found headers
were sorted in Thread or Subject order.

* Fixed a bug in the Filter Builder that prevented the
second part of a score range from being saved while
using MySQL.

* Added .APE and .FLAC to the default binary extension
list in the Filter Build and Automation Rule editor.

* Added check for no criteria in the Automation Rule editor.

* Updated MySQL connectivity components to latest version.

* Fixed a bug in the Export to NZB process that excluded
filtered messages when using the "Filter Toggle"
feature.

* Fixed a bug in the Export to MBox process that excluded
filtered messages when using the "Filter Toggle"
feature.

* Added caption titles to the various panes of the main
program window.

* Added a manual interface to set the score value for
selected messages in the message list.

* Added new sound cue event: Optimization Complete.

* Added rechecking of errors when deleting jobs from the
Queue.

* Added new connection status to monitor wait state after
connecting to news server to allow the Thread Manager
to abort connections that are hung-up while listening
to the news server.

* Added worker thread connection aborts when "Stop all
online activity" is triggered.

* Added an option to delete NZB files after importing.

* Modified Hold reason for queue items that are pending
auto-save.

* Final patch to MySQL connectivity components to support
64bit integers.
