   Hi All,   
      
   2024-03-15  -  2.3.0.0-Beta   
      
     This public beta release is mainly about the release of fconfig for linux.   
     So FMail is now fully linux compatible.   
     There are a few minor changes in the Windows version too.   
     See the ChangeLog file for the full details.

   For the linux version, instead of using above statically linked executables,   
   I recommend, if you have the setup/tools for it,   
   to download the sources with git, and compile it yourself.   
      
   These are the steps/commands:   
      
   # git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/fmail/code FMail   
   # cd FMail   
   # git checkout --track origin/fconfig_linux   
   # mkdir cmake-build   
   # cd cmake-build   
   # cmake ..   
   # make   
      
      
   I tested the linux version of fconfig on a few systems:   
      
     Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (konsole remote ssh)   
     Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS (konsole remote ssh)   
     openSUSE Leap 42.1 (konsole local, putty remote ssh)   
     SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP5 (konsole remote ssh, putty remote ssh)   
      
   Only on the latter I had some issues with messed up screens, until I changed   
   some   
   terminal settings. After which it behaved just as well as in the others.   
      
      
   I would appreciate any feedback, especially on the behaviour of fconfig for   
   linux, you can give!   
      
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
