Hi all.

This is to announce that Alpine 2.00 is now available for OS/2 and eComStation, along with the corresponding versions of the University of Washington's POP3 and IMAP servers. The web interface ("Web Alpine") but it does not yet work under OS/2 and I don't distribute the binaries for it.

The general announcement from the University of Washington is appended to this article. Note that the version that I distribute has been compiled without S/MIME support, however.

You can find further information and source code at:

http://www.zeta.org.au/~nps/software/alpine/en/index.html

I'll be taking a break from Alpine for the next six months or so due to work commitments. I'll read and respond to e-mail but I won't be doing any coding, bug-fixing or distribution. I hope to return to Alpine some time in 2009.

Nick S.

Subject: Alpine 2.00 now available
The University of Washington is pleased to announce the release of version
2.00 of the Alpine Messaging System.
Among its many improvements, this release introduces integrated secure

messaging support (via S/MIME) as well as a completely redesigned,
interactive web interface. Version 2.00 also marks the transition of the Alpine Messaging Team's role of direct, active development to one more oriented toward supporting community driven development. The team intends to continue hosting source,
coordinating and consulting on contributed fixes and additions, and packaging periodic releases.
