Folks,

I've released remail v0.10.

The main change is to make an open list, especially a contact point like
hardware-security at kernel.org usable.

Due to the re-encryption and sender mangling the sender information is
lost. That's not a problem for a subscriber only list as a simple reply
to the list will reach the sender.

For contact points that's a problem because replying to the list will
not reach the sender. To address that there is a new per list config
option 'attach_sender_info' which stores that information in attachments
to the re-encrypted original mail. The first attachment contains textual
information (email address, encryption method and details). If the mail
was signed then the PGP key or the S/MIME certificate is extracted from
the signature and attached as either ASCII armored PGP or S/MIME PEM.

These attachments are only created if the sender is not a
subscriber. For mail originating from subscribers it's omitted.

Thanks,

        Thomas
