1/31    I used to get "You have mail." or "You have new mail." messages when I
        logged in but not anymore.  What happened?  Where do they come from?
        \_ the system sshd_config may have had CheckMail turned off.
           \_ CheckMail in sshd is deprecated

        \_ I think tcsh may have been upgraded.
        \_ look at your .login.   if you dont have nfrm anywhere in the
           file, add it.
           \_ nfrm shows you who the mail is from, which is nice but takes
              way too long. I just want to see if I have new mail or not
              like it used to show. how do I get that?
              \_ RTFM, einstein. It's in there.

This release contains many portability bug-fixes (listed in the >> ChangeLog) as well as several new features (listed below). We would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued >> support and encouragement. Important Changes: >> ================== >> >> 1) SSH protocol v2 is now the default protocol version >> >> use the 'Protocol' option from ssh(1) and sshd(8) if >> you need to change this. However, those deprecated files are considered 'readonly'. Future >> releases are likely not to read these files. The CheckMail option in sshd_config is deprecated, as sshd(8) no > longer >> checks for new mail. X11 cookies are now stored in $HOME. ClearAllForwardings in ssh(1) >> >> 8) ssh(1) now checks the hostkey for localhost > (NoHostAuthenticationForLocalhost yes/no). AllowUsers user@host syntax in sshd(8) >> >> 14) improved challenge-response support (especially for systems > supporting BSD_AUTH) >> >> 15) sshd(8) can specify time args as 1h, 2h30s etc. RSA/DSA keys generated with the > commercial version >> >> 18) ssh-keyscan(1) supports protocol version 2 >> >> OpenSSH is brought to you by Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de > Raadt, >> Kevin Steves, Damien Miller and Ben Lindstrom.
