Hi,
I'm glad to announce the release of Pantomime 1.0.2.
Pantomime provides a set of Objective-C classes that model
a mail system. Pantomime can be seen as a JavaMail 1.2 clone
written in Objective-C.
Pantomime provides the following features:
* A full MIME encoder and decoder ;
* A 'folder view' to local mailboxes (Berkeley Format),
POP3 accounts or IMAP mailboxes ;
* A powerful API to work on all aspects of Message objects ;
* A local mailer and a SMTP conduit for sending messages ;
* APOP support and SMTP AUTH support ;
* and more!
Pantomime works well on Apple Mac OS X/Cocoa and GNUstep.
Pantomime is free and is distributed under the LGPL.
Here is a short list of what changed since the last release
of Pantomime:
* Now supports 8-bit messages ;
* SMTP AUTH support (LOGIN, PLAIN, CRAM-MD5) ;
* Added a retain period feature for POP3 for leaving messages
on server for X days before being deleted ;
* Added non-blocking I/O to send/receive operations in
the TCPConnection class ;
* Added initial support for IMAP/POP3 URL Scheme ;
* Added uudecode support to MimeUtility ;
* Added more test cases ;
* Refactored a lot of classes, fixed memory
leaks, fixed bugs and improved the performance.

Here's a list of what needs to be improved for the next release:
* IMAP folder subscription ;
* SSL support for IMAP and POP3 ;
* Subfolder support for LocalStore/LocalFolder ;
* Better exception handling in case of network failures.
Contributions are very welcomed for all those items.
I would like to thank Francis Lachapelle and Alexander Malmberg
who helped me getting this release done.
Thanks a lot,
Ludovic
