Description:
 KMail Power Tools is meant to be a suite of
enhancements to KMail and may be other mail user
agents.

It is currently composed of only one (perl) script
that acts as a filter (take input from stdin,
outputs the modified mail to stdout), adds dialog
boxes to kmail, and allows the user to:

    * remove all attachments from an email (no
user interaction),
    * remove selectively attachments, after asking
the user,
    * detach (i.e. save then remove) any
attachment to a directory chosen by the user,

hence reducing the size of your mailbox, while
allowing you to backup important attached files.

All these actions are logged within a sentence in
the mail body, like:
[Attachment saved by jice (04/03/2007 17:30:23) to
file:///tmp/test.pdf]
or (with the new -s option):
[Attachment saved by jice (04/03/2007 17:30:23) to
file:///tmp/test.pdf (121728 bytes)]

Please upgrade to v0.2 as it corrects several
bugs.

!!!!!!!!! ERRATUM for v0.1 !!!!!!!!!
* change the rights of /usr/local/bin/mailpt.pl:
chmod 0755 /usr/local/bin/mailpt.pl
* kmailpt.pl needs a tmp directory in your home
directory:
mkdir ~/tmp

Changelog:
 20/3/2007 v0.2
--------------
New features:
	- Add options -a (remove all attachments),
	              -m (md5sum in the disclaimer),
	              -s (size in the disclaimer),
	              -n (multiline disclaimer).
	  (md5, size and multiline disclaimer are based
on an idea by ZJ Laczik)
	- When the destination file already exists,
rename it with a dash
	  and a number before the file extension (instead
of replacing
	  the destination!).
	- If no option is given on the command line: do
nothing & exit.
	  (use the -a option to get the old behaviour)
	- Replaced ~/tmp by ~/.kmailpt for temporary
files.

Bug corrections:
	- Corrected a bug in the Makefile to make kmailpt
executable.
	- Source file name is now obtained correctly
(thanks to ZJ Laczik).
	- The tarball now contains a root directory
kmailpt-0.1.2/

4/3/2007 v0.1
-------------
	First public release
