Hello,

I'm happy to announce a new release of "mblaze", a Unix command line
mail client system in the spirit of RAND MH, but developed from scratch
and focused on Maildir.

This 1.0 release adds three breaking changes(!) and fixes bugs,
updating is highly recommended.

* Caution! Backwards incompatible changes:
* As a message name, `-` now refers to the message on the standard input,
and not the the previous message anymore. Use `.-` to refer to
the previous message in a short way.
The tools will print a warning if you use `-` and the standard input
comes from a TTY.
* mpick: use the -F flag to read script files.
* mpick: remove msglist support, use plain mmsg(7) arguments.
* Many mblaze tools now make use of pledge(2) on OpenBSD.
* add contrib/mcount, a tool to count mails
* mrep: use Reply-From configuration to find From header
* Many bug fixes.
