+       Revision 1.1  1995/08/07 21:09:19  ceharris
+       Final preparation for popclient 3.0b1 release
+
+This is a BETA release of popclient version 3.  Little if any user support
+is provided for this version of popclient.  Consider this BETA version to
+be a "developer/tester" release only.
+
+Release History
+
+3.0b5
+o      "From " header fix in pop2.c and pop3.c
+o      Surpress "..." output when --stdout option specified in pop3.c
+
+3.0b4
+o      alloca fix.
+o      various diagnostic/informational message fixes.
+
+3.0b3
+o      Support for retrieving only new messages from maildrop when
+       using POP3.  
+o      Support for retrieving only the first n lines of each message
+       when using POP3.
+o      APOP authentication support.
+o      Buffered socket input.
+
+3.0b2
+       This is a "new features" release.
+o      support for .poprc file.
+o      GNU-style long options.
+o      fixed passwords appearing in 'ps' output
+o      support for multiple servers on one command line
+
+3.0b1
+       This is mostly a test of the autoconfigure integration.
+Among the functions performed by the new configure script, is
+the ability to detect known system types, configures the mail
+delivery agent (MDA) correctly.  This should permanently solve
+the problem of using something other than an MDA for mail
+delivery (which continues to plague Linux slackware 1.2.9).
+For this beta, please check the values of MDA_PATH and MDA_ARGS
+carefully.  They should match the values found in your
+sendmail.cf file on the line which begins with "Mlocal".
+
+       Other changes from popclient version 2.21:
+
+o       no longer uses getpass() from the C library.  The
+       internal getpassword() function allows the use of long
+       passwords.
+
+o      integrated GNU getopt() for long options.  Long option  
+       names will appear in a future beta.
+
+o      Several compiler warnings fixed.
+
+o      Fixed problems related to missing include files in
+       Solaris port.
