+Notmuch 0.11.1 (2012-02-03)
+===========================
+
+Bug-fix release.
+----------------
+
+### Fix error handling in python bindings
+
+  The python bindings in 0.11 failed to detect NULL pointers being
+  returned from libnotmuch functions and thus failed to raise
+  exceptions to indicate the error condition. Any subsequent calls
+  into libnotmuch caused segmentation faults.
+
+### Quote MML tags in replies
+
+  MML tags are text codes that Emacs uses to indicate attachments
+  (among other things) in messages being composed.  The Emacs
+  interface did not quote MML tags in the quoted text of a reply.
+  User could be tricked into replying to a maliciously formatted
+  message and not editing out the MML tags from the quoted text.  This
+  could lead to files from the user's machine being attached to the
+  outgoing message.  The Emacs interface now quotes these tags in
+  reply text, so that they do not effect outgoing messages.
