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:

    * [b]remove all attachments from an email[/b]
(no user interaction),
    * [b]remove selectively attachments[/b], after
asking the user,
    * [b]detach[/b] (i.e. save then remove) [b]any
attachment[/b] 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)]

Note: kmailpt is also able to remove/detach
attachments from gpg encrypted emails, and to
store these emails decrypted.

Changelog:
 28/5/2007 v0.3
--------------
	* New features
	  - New icons thanks to Rüdiger Härtel
	  - Handle gpg encrypted emails:
	    . Now able to remove/detach attachments
within a gpg
	      encrypted email
	    . New command line option -g to tell kmailpt
to leave
	      the resulting email decrypted
	    . Command line option -p tells KmailPT to use
gpg-agent instead of asking the passphrase
	  - option -d now takes an optional argument to
tell it from the command line where to store the
detached files.
	    When this argument is present, every file is
detached
	    to the given destination.
	* Bug corrections
	  - The disclaimer was added even to text/plain
and text/html attached files. This is fixed.

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
