Ok I’m headed to Vegas for a conference. Hopefully this should give people something to play with while I’m out and about.

Basically I fixed a bunch of small problems - including giving you a better warning when you are not logged in as “admin” but you are trying to access Postie.

Also there are a number of image related features - Imagemagick can now be used to make thumbs, flash files embed in the page, and the first draft of pulling the first frame out of a 3gp movie are in there. Currently there are no instructions on how to get ffmpeg or imagemagick - I’m leaving that as an exercise for the user.

Finally I’ve thrown my hands up over the time difference issue - Postie now tracks it’s own time differential - if that doesn’t fix the problem - I’m going to need some help.


BUGFIX: handles email addresses that are no name and just (Steve Cooley Reported)
FEATURE: Basic support for embedding flash files
BUGFIX: Postie now handles creating the correct URL on non Unix platforms
BUGFIX: Fixed problem with file attachments not being put in the right place.
FEATURE: You can now choose to use imagemagick convert to handle making thumbnails
BUGFIX: Rewrote Cronless Postie to use direct sockets
BUGFIX: Time offset is now settable just for Postie - hopefully this will fix problems for cases where the normal time offset doesn’t work properly.
FEATURE: First draft of frame for a 3GP video
FEATURE: Option to embed 3GP in QuickTime Controller.
