5.00 - 2006.09.18
CODE QUALITY
* Parameter validation for nearly all subroutines using
Params::Validate. Backwards compatability is now destroyed, but that
should not affect anyone as all published software that uses these
functions is included with the distribution. Params::Validate is
included in MT distribution.
* Tests. Hundreds of new tests. In version 4, I added a plethora of
tests, basically just making sure each sub and function would
execute. Now most subs and functions have tests that verify inputs
and results.
* Switched to Test::More for tests. Provides more and better options
for writing tests, comparing results, and figuring out where the
tests failed.
* Maillogs - a number of optimizations to make processing logs
faster (shorter regexps, optimized ternaries to match common stuff
first, removed POSIX requirement (lighten memory requirements),
updated several of the counter functions to complain about unknown
errors and values, more sanity checking in functions so they give up
on errors instead of blithely charging ahead.
* instead of eval's strewn all over to test for certain modules,
added $perl->has_module
* all objects are created with Class->new intead of new Class.
* all errors raise exceptions by default. This requires callers to
take specific action to change.
* run tests early in subroutines, reduces giant if nests and makes
it easier to read the code.
MISC
* Added Build.PL for use with Module::Build fans.
* Greatly simplified Makefile.PL by moving "make cgi" and "make
conf" logic into Setup.pm. Those functions are now accessed by
toaster_setup targets.
* OpenSSL config files are now updated automatically. Auto-generated
certs now have the accurate information in them. Courier-IMAP certs
are also updated automatically.
DOCUMENTATION
* Added three new test modules that test for: pod documentation for
subs, pod formatting, and automatic checking of code to test for
best practices.
* moved POD documentation from being strewn about the files to the
end of each file.
* wrote and re-wrote significant portions of the documentation, as
well as cleaned up formatting. Documentation is now easier to find
as well.

shortened most tnpi.net urls to mail-toaster.org
updated copyright notices to 2006

CODE FORMATTING & READABILITY
* Used perltidy to format most of the source code.
* Used perlcritic to identify and correct (almost) all instances
where my code was not using best practices, as identified in Perl
Best Practices.
* All subroutines now take named arguments, making it easier to read
the code and understand what is being sent and returned.
* added "use English" pragma and replaced all the arcane $^ and $[
perl variables with their english name equivalents.
WEB INTERFACE/CGI
* Completely new webmail/logon interface. Written entirely in HTML,
CSS, and JavaScript.
* The format of toaster-watcher.conf is altered slightly. It is more
consistent in the internal layout so that my programs can alter it
reliably.
* removed httpd.conf patches in favor of installing a
mail-toaster.conf file with all the requisite apache directives.
* Organized all the cgi related docs into cgi_files directory. They
are now installed via the -s webmail target to toaster_setup.
