Hello Viktor.

I hope you do not mind that i have resumed your bit so that you
receive this from the right list, maybe.

Tja, thank you.  Just yesterday i went over to one of the other
projects i want to work with, because it was 2015-12-31 and
i promised that i will not spend just a single minute of 2016 on
this very project.  But today already i had to come back for
fixes.

 |Just built v14.9.3 on Linux amd64

I see.  I am really thinking about contributing to the Debian
package, it seems as if Hilko Bengen has stopped maintaining just
any of his packages.  And maybe i could get testing possibilities
on all those machines i do not have access to otherwise, s390,
powerpc, to name just two.  Will look some day.

 |Is there a way to display HTML part in multipart/alternative messages?

 |Tried this with no luck
 |
 |set mime-alternative-favour-rich
 |set pipe-text/html="@*@ lynx -stdin -dump -force_html 2>&1"
 |
 |The plain text part gets displayed and this:
 |
 |[-- #1.2 71/4541 text/html, quoted-printable, UTF-8 --]

Hm, this is odd for simple /alternative messages.  In the
Microsoft world there are a lot of problems (regarding such
favourization) due to complicated /related or so parts, mostly
because of our recursive MIME parser.  Otherwise it works just
fine for me?

 |I'd like to see colorful messages.

Only headers yet, sorry.

 |set PAGER=less
 |set colour-pager
 |
 |Works only in v14.8.16 both with "less" and "more".

Before i forget it: sorry for the false spelling of your name in
the v14.9.0 announcement!

 |In v14.9.3 less disappears right at the end of the plain text part and

 |Setting PAGER to more works but with no colors.
 |TERM is xterm-color and the "?" prompt is red.

You should set the LESS environment variable like

  $ export LESS=RXi; mail
or
  $ mail
  ? environ set LESS=RXi

It is because of termcap support, oh i am really lucky that we do
not go into the alternative screen mode automatically, but require
*termcap-ca-mode* to be set!  That would have been a disaster.  We
simply are no fullscreen application, and have no builtin pager.

Paul Vojta has reported this, and it is on the [master] branch
([cc54681e]): i have simply forgotten to adjust the automatical
setting of $LESS once i have introduced *termcap-ca-mode*.
Sorry!

 |3)
 |It would also be nice to verify multipart/signed gpg messages with a  
 |separate signature.asc

Oh yes!  That is so true.  I hope we come to this in 2017.  But
i will not give you credit, the temporary commit message is
crowded with people who also ask for this.
Sorry.

 |How to get "normal" deletion alias?
 |
 |move MESSAGENUMBER +INBOX.Trash
 |
 |commandalias does not handle in-the-middle arguments.

I do not understand what you mean here.  We now support macros
with arguments, ah, maybe i do -- MESSAGENUMBER is variable?
Does this work for you:

  define delno {
    move "${@}" +INBOX.Trash
  }
  commandalias delno '\call delno'
or
  commandalias delno '\call' delno
or
  commandalias delno '\'call delno

(quoting just like in the shell!), and then to be called like

  ? delno 1 2 3 4

Ciao!
