-LibPST v0.5
-===========
-
-It is with GREAT relief that I bring you version 0.5 of the LibPST tools!
-
-Through great difficulties, this tool has survived and expanded to become even
-better.
-
-The changes are as follows:
-  * RTF support. We can now decompress RTF bodies in emails, and are saved as attachments
-  * Better support in reading the indexes. Fixed many bugs with them
-  * Improved reliability. "Now we are getting somewhere!"
-  * Improved compiling. Hopefully we won't be hitting too many compile errors now.
-  
-If you have any problems with this release, don't hesitate to contact me.
-
-These changes come to you, as always, free under the GPL license!! What a wonderful
-thing it is. It does mean that you can write your own program off of this library
-and distribute it also for free. However, anyone with commercial interests for
-developing applications they will be charging for are encouraged to get in touch
-with me, as I am sure we can come to some arrangement.

-LibPST v0.4.3
-=============
-
-Bug fix release. No extra functionality
-
-Dave Smith
-<dave.s@earthcorp.com>
-
-LibPST v0.4.2
-=============
-
-The debug system has had an overhaul. The debug messages are no longer
-printed to the screen when they are enabled. They are dumped to a
-binary file. There is another utility called "readlog" that I have
-written to handle these log files. It should make it easier to
-selectively view bits of a log file. It also shows the position that
-the log message was printed from.
-
-There is a new switch in readpst. It is -d. It enables the user to
-specify the log file which the binary log is written to. If the switch
-isn't used, the default file of "readpst.log" is used.
-
-The code is now Visual C++ compatible. It has compiled on Visual C++
-.net Standard edition, and produces the readpst.exe file. Use the project
-file included in this distribution.
-
-There have been minor improvements elsewhere too.
-
-
-LibPST v0.4.1
-=============
-
-Fixed a couple more bugs. Is it me or do bugs just insert themselves
-in random, hard to find places!
-
-Cured a few problems with regard to emails with multiple embeded
-items. They are not fully re-created using Mime-types, but are
-accessible with the -S switch (which saves everything as seperate
-items)
-
-Fixed a problem reading the first index. Back sliders are now
-detected. (ie when the value following the current one is smaller, not
-bigger!)
-
-Added some error messages when we try and read outside of the PST
-file, this was causing a few problems before, cause the return value
-wasn't always checked, so it was possible to be reading random data,
-and trying to make sense of it!
-
-Anyway, if you find any problems, don't hesitate to mail me

-
-LibPST v0.4
-===========
-
-Fixed a nasty bug that occasionally corrupted attachments. Another bug
-with regard to reading of indexes (also occasional).
-
-Another output method has been added which is called "Seperate". It is
-activated with the -S switch. It operates in the following manor:
-
-  |--Inbox-->000000
-  |	     000001
-  |	     000002
-  |--Sentmail-->0000000
-  |		0000001
-  |		0000002
-
-All the emails are stored in seperate files counting from 0 upwards,
-in a folder named as the PST folder.
-
-When an email has an attachment, it is saved as a seperate file. The
-filename for the attachment is made up of 2 parts, the first is the
-email number to which it belongs, the second is its filename.
-
-The should now be runnable on big-endian machines, if the define.h
-file is first modified. The #define LITTLE_ENDIAN must be commented
-out, and the #define BIG_ENDIAN must be uncommented.
-
-More verbose error messages have been added. Apparently people got
-confused when the program stopped for no visible reason. This has now
-been resolved.
-
-Thanks for the continued support of all people involved.

-Libpst v0.3.4
-=============
-
-Several more fixes. An Infinite loop and incorrect interpreting of
-item index attributes. Work has started on making the code executable
-on big endian CPUs. At present it should work with Linux on these
-CPUs, but I would appreciate it if you could provide feedback with
-regard to it's performance. I am also working with some other people
-at make it operate on Solaris.
-
-A whole load more items are now recognized by the Item records. With
-more items in Emails and Folders. I haven't got to the Contacts yet.
-
-Anyway, this is what I would call a minor feature enhancment and
-bugfix release.
-
-Dave Smith
-<dave.s@earthcorp.com>
-
-LibPST v0.3.3
-=============
-
-Fixed several items. Mainly memory leaks. Loads of them! oops..
-
-I have added a new program, mainly of debugging, which when passed
-an ID value and a pst file, will extract and decrypt that ID from 
-the pst file. I don't see it being a huge attraction, or of much use
-to most people, but it is another example of writing an application
-to use the libpst interface.
-
-Another fix was in the reading of the item index. This has hopefully
-now been corrected. The result of this bug was that not all the emails
-in a folder were converted. Hopefully you should have more luck now.
-
-Dave Smith
-<dave.s@earthcorp.com>
-
-LibPST v0.3.2
-=============
-
-Quick bugfix release. There was a bug in the decryption of the basic
-encryption that outlook uses. One byte, 0x6c, was incorrectly decrypted
-to 0x6c instead of 0xcd. This release fixes this bug. Sorry...
+Try this:
 
-
-LibPST v0.3.1
-=============
-
-Minor improvements. Fixed bug when linking multiple blocks together,
-so now the linking blocks are not "encrypted" when trying to read
-them.
-
-
-LibPST v0.3
-===========
-
-A lot of bug fixing has been done for this release. Testing has been
-done on the creation of the files by readpst.  Better handling of
-large binaries being extracted from the PST file has been implemented.
-
-Quite a few reports have come in about not being able to compile on
-Darwin. This could be down to using macros with variable parameter
-lists. This has now been changed to use C functions with variable
-parameters. I hope this fixes a lot of problems.
-
-Added support for recreating the folder structure into normal
-directories. For Instance:
-
-Personal Folders
-  |-Inbox
-  |   |-Jokes
-  |   |-Meetings
-  |-Send Items
-
-each folder containing an mbox file with the correct emails for that
-folder.

-LibPST v0.3 beta1
-=================
-
-Again, a shed load of enhancements. More work has been done on the
-mime creation. A bug has been fixed that was letting part of the
-attachments that were created disappear. 
-
-A major enhancement is that "compressible encryption" support has been
-added. This was an incredibly simple method to use. It is basically a
-ceasar cipher. It has been noted by several users already that the PST
-password that Outlook uses, serves *no purpose*. It is not used to
-encrypt the PST, it is mearly stored there. This means that the
-readpst application is able to convert PST files without knowing the
-password. Microsoft have some explaning to do!
-
-Output files are now not overwritten if they already exist. This means
-that if you have two folders in your PST file named "fred", the first
-one encountered will be named "fred" and the second one will be named
-"fred00000001". As you can see, there is enough room there for many
-duplicate names!
-
-Output filenames are now restricted. Any "/" or "\" characters in the
-name are replaced with "_". If you find that there are any other
-characters that need to be changed, could you please make me aware!
-
-Thanks to Berry Wizard for help with supporting the encryption.
-
-Thanks to Auke Kok, Carolus Walraven and Yogesh Kumar Guatam for providing debugging
-information and testing.

-LibPST v0.2 beta1
-=================
-
-Hello once more...
-
-Attachments are now re-created in mime format. The method is very
-crude and could be prone to over generalisation. Please test this
-version, and if attachments are not recreated correctly, please send
-me the email (complete message source) of the original and
-converted. Cheers.
-
-I hope this will work for everyone who uses this program, but reality
-can be very different!
-
-Let us see how it goes...
-
-Dave Smith
-<dave.s@earthcorp.com>
-
-LibPST v0.2 alpha1
-===========
-
-Hello!
-
-Some improvements. The internal code has been changed so that
-attachments are now processed and loaded into the structures. The
-readpst program is not finished yet. It needs to convert these binary
-structs into mime data. At present it just saves them to the current
-directory, overwriting any previous files with the attachment name.
-
-Improvements over previous version: 
-* KMail output is supported - if the "-k" flag is specified, all the
-  directory hierarchy is created using the KMail standard
-* Lots of bugs and memory leaks fixed
-
-
-Usage:
-
-ReadPST v0.2alpha1 implementing LibPST v0.2alpha1
-Usage: ./readpst [OPTIONS] {PST FILENAME}
-OPTIONS:
-        -h      - Help. This screen
-        -k      - KMail. Output in kmail format
-        -o      - Output Dir. Directory to write files to. CWD is changed *after* opening pst file
-        -V      - Version. Display program version
-
-If you want to view lots of debug output, modify a line in "define.h"
-from "//#define DEBUG_ALL" to "#define DEBUG_ALL". It would then be
-advisable to pipe all output to a log file:
-
-./readpst -o out pst_file &> logfile
-

-
-LibPST v0.1
-===========
-
-Hi Folks!
-
-This has been a long, hard slog, but I now feel that I have got
-somewhere useful. The included program "main" is able to read an
-Outlook PST file and dump the emails into mbox files, separating each
-folder into a different mbox file. All the mbox files are stored in
-the current directory and no attempt is yet made to organise these
-files into a directory hierarchy. This would not be too difficult to
-achieve though.
-
-Email attachments are not yet handled, neither are Contacts.
-
-There is no pretty interface yet, but you can convert a PST file in
-the following manner
-
-./main {path to PST file}
-
-This is very much a work in progress, but I thought I should release
-this code so that people can lose their conception that outlook files
-will never be converted to Linux.
-
-I am intending that the code I am writing will be developed into
-greater applications to provide USEFUL tools for accessing and
-converting PST files into a variety of formats.
-
-One point I feel I should make is that Outlook, by default, creates
-"Compressible Encryption" PST files. I have not, as yet, attempted to
-write any decryption routines, so you will not be able to convert
-these files. However, if you create a new PST file and choose not to
-make an encrypted one, you can copy all your emails into this new one
-and then convert the unencrypted one.
-
-I hope you enjoy,
-
