You might want to install as has some nice improvements, including
wildcards to allow specifying addresses like *@foo.com, fred+*@bar.com,
foo@*.bar.com etc if you have any catchall or extension addresses.
Also can specify multiple resources on one call, eg
-r adam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -r adam@xxxxxxxxxxxx -r ABack@xxxxxxxx etc
There is now also POSIX regular expression support for specifying
addresses so even fancier things like (adam|test|blah)\+.*@foo.com are
possible.
Also there is flock(2) file locking and there is no longer need for a
temporary file.
Email addresses are also now case-insensitive by default (a bit of an
oversight before as domains are defined case-insensitive and most mail
systems seem to have case-insensitive user names also).
New RPMs and tar balls are up. Windows I did not try to compile this
on yet.

As previously mentioned this is planned to be the last version 0
format (or last plus minor bug fixes, documentation errors). With
that little todo list out of the way, we can start to think about v1
format.
