New Features
- - For header_filter_rules matching, both RFC 2047 encoded headers and
- header_filter_rules patterns are now decoded to unicode as are. Both
- XML character references of the form &#nnnn; and unicode escapes of the
- form \Uxxxx in patterns are converted to unicodes as well. Both headers
- and patterns are normalized to 'NFKC' normal form before matching, but
- the normalization form can be set via a new NORMALIZE_FORM mm_cfg
- setting. Also, the web UI has been updated to encode characters in text
- fields that are invalid in the character set of the page's language as
- XML character references instead of '?'. This should help with entering
- header_filter_rules patterns to match 'odd' characters. This feature is
- experimental and is problematic for some cases where it is desired to
- have a header_filter_rules pattern with characters not in the character
- set of the list's preferred language. For patterns without such
- characters, the only change in behavior should be because of unicode
- normalization which should improve matching. For other situations such
- as trying to match a Subject: with CJK characters (range U+4E00..U+9FFF)
- on an English language (ascii) list, one can enter a pattern like
- '^subject:.*[一-鿿]' or '^subject:.*[\u4e00;-\u9fff;]' to
- match a Subject with any character in the range, and it will work, but
- depending on the actual characters and the browser, submitting another,
- even unrelated change can garble the original entry although this
- usually occurs only with ascii pages and characters in the range
- \u0080-\u00ff. The \Uxxxx unicode escapes must have exactly 4 hex
- digits, but they are case insensitive. (LP: #558155)
