SYLPHEED-CLAWS RELEASE NOTES
http://claws.sylpheed.org
Notes for this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* GPGME 1.x
- This release adds GPGME 1.x support. GPGME >= 0.4.5 is now needed
- if you require GnuPG support.
-
-* A new PGP/Core plugin has been added, this alone does not add
- anything new for the user, but provides core functions that are
- used by the PGP/MIME and PGP/Inline plugins. If you have PGP/Mime
- or PGP/Inline configured for loading it will be loaded
- automatically, due to the new Plugin Dependency system.
-
-* IMAP
- This release brings further improvements to IMAP support and adds a
- dependency. libEtPan! >= 0.38 is now required for IMAP support. It
- is available from http://www.etpan.org.
- Users not requiring IMAP support can use the configure option
- '--disable-libetpan'
-
-* Printing support
- Optional extended printing support has been added. It relies upon
- libgnomeprint2 and libgnomeprintui2 and will be built automatically
- if you have the required libraries installed. Should you wish to
- disable it you can use the configure option '--disable-gnomeprint'
+* The 'Open first unread message when entering a folder' option has
+ been replaced with 'When entering a folder select...', allowing the
+ user to 'Do Nothing','Select first new (or unread) message',
+ (falling back to first unread message if there are no new
+ messages), or 'Select first unread (or new) message', (falling back
+ to first new message if there are no unread messages).
-New in this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ Whether or not the selected message is opened is now exclusively
+ controlled by the 'Always open message when selected' option.

+ configuration file is converted to the new format automatically and
+ the old file is backed up to ~/.sylpheed-gtk2/matcherrc.pre_names.

- platforms such as Suns and Macs, as soon as a folder's content
- changes
