+* Use of '~' character (denoting the user home directory)
+
+This character is expanded also if it appears after the protocol
+specification in a mailbox URL. e.g.: maildir:~/Mail/inbox.
+
+It is possible to use '~' in mailutils configuration file.
+
+* New option --mailbox-type
+
+Use this option to specify the default mailbox type. It is supported
+by all utilities that use "mailbox" command line capability (see the
+documentation for the list). For example:
+
+  mail --mailbox-type=mh: --file=~/Mail/inbox
+
+will open ~/Mail/inbox directory as an MH folder. This option is
+especially useful in the mailutils configuration file. For example,
+adding this line to your mailutils.rc:
+
+:mailbox  --mailbox-type=mh:
+
+will force all mail utilities to use MH by default.

 * mail: New option --exec (-E) allows to execute arbitrary mail commands
 before opening the mailbox. Any number of --exec options can be given.
