Hello all,

We are pleased to inform you that Mew version 6.1 has been released.
Since Virtual mode is re-designed and many restrictions are removed,
the major version is now 6.

	http://www.mew.org/Release/mew-6.1.tar.gz

Mew 6.1 now supports Emacs 21.4 or later only. Mew 6.1 doesn't support
earlier versions nor XEmacs.

Please use Emacs 22.x unless you have a particular reason. Mew 6.1
does support Emacs 23.x.

Configuration in "~/.mew.el" has been simplified. All most all old
configuration work. But please read info to understand the simpler
way.

Highlights of Mew 6.1 are as follows:

* Configuration in ".mew.el", especially of mew-config-alist is
  simplified. See the config2 node in info.
* Virtual mode is categorized to Selection and Thread. You can create
  Selection by keyword, dialog, sorting, and so on. You can make
  Thread even of Selection as well as of Summary.
* "S" is now virtual sort creating Selection. Physical sort is
  assigned to "M-s".
* Punycode is supported. Mew now can display internationalized domain
  names.
* "Z" collects a folder list according to the current world.
  No numeric argument is necessary any more.
* "_" toggles a long line: normal, long, wrapped.
* You can use gmail with IMAP.

Enjoy!
