Email-reminder 0.7.2 Released

If you use any accented characters, upgrade now! This version fixes a problem where your reminders file (written in the XML format) can become unreadable by email-reminder-editor after you save some accented characters in the event name.

This release also makes it possible to send UTF-8 encoded email messages so that accented characters can make it to the emails.

Email-reminder 0.7.1 Released

This version of email-reminder only adds a (somewhat important) warning message when the configuration file (/etc/email-reminder.conf) cannot be read.

Some people reported problems with their settings being ignored and the cause of that problem was that the user running send-reminders didn't have read permissions on the config file.

Users of the Debian and Ubuntu packages are more likely to have run into this problem. Please update your packages to the latest version.

Email-reminder 0.7.0 Released

A new version of email-reminder has just been released. It includes security enhancements to reduce the amount of trusted code in the package and a new SMTP authentication feature suggested by Zachary Aaron Puthoff.

As usual, please let me know if you find anything that doesn't work.

Email-reminder 0.6.0 Released

Version 0.6.0 now includes monthly and weekly recurrences so that you can remember to pay rent and take the garbage out! email-reminder will from now on be released under the terms of the GPLv3.

Email-reminder 0.5.7 Released

Email-reminder is not dead! Despite the fact that it hasn't seen much development in the last year, I still use email-reminder every day and care about it :) Here's a small bugfix release which fixes a bug reported by Ron Guerin regarding a missing date header. If the emails sent by email-reminder have weird dates in them, this should take care of them.

Email-reminder 0.5.6 Released

It improves the display of the occurence in advance notifications and it adds support for sending reminders to more than one email address through the tag in the XML (see the updated example).

Email-reminder 0.5.5 Released

It features a suggestion made by txemi: show the occurence date in advance notifications.

Email-reminder 0.5.4 Released

The only change is a one-line fix to the name of the system configuration file. The name was incorrect and the settings were never read by the send-reminder script.

Email-reminder 0.5.3 Released

Events occurring on February 29th are now supported. Also, there is now a way to specify the email address where each event will be sent ( and tags from within -- see the examples).

Email-reminder 0.5.2 Released

Fixes a minor bug in the subject line of advance notifications of birthdays.

Email-reminder 0.5.1 Released

Fixes the path of the send-reminders script in the example cron job so that reminders are actually sent out now.

Email-reminder 0.5.0 Released

First public release.
