David Hull made the file: URL parser also accept the somewhat sloppy file syntax: file:/path. I added test case 203 to verify this. 2003-10-29 17:53:21 +08:00
Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer. 2006-08-09 06:56:46 +08:00			`This release includes the following changes:`

HTTP Digest auth fix on a re-used connection 2007-07-22 18:17:52 +08:00			`This release includes the following bugfixes:`

pop3: Fixed the issue of having to supply the user name for all requests Previously it wasn't possible to connect to POP3 and not specify the user name as a CURLE_ACCESS_DENIED error would be returned. This error occurred because USER would be sent to the server with a blank user name if no mailbox user was specified as the server would reply with -ERR. This wasn't a problem prior to the 7.26.0 release but with the introduction of custom commands the user and/or application developer might want to issue a CAPA command without having to log in as a specific mailbox user. Additionally this fix won't send the newly introduced AUTH command if no user name is specified. 2012-06-03 05:11:37 +08:00			`o pop3: Fixed the issue of having to supply the user name for all requests`
