1 Changes of the Claws Mail GTK2 branch
6 * Use 'gnutls_priority' hidden account preference for POP3 and
7 STARTTLS connections, in addition to SMTP.
9 * RSSyl plugin: Enable use of .netrc to store network credentials.
11 * Remove dependency on intltool.
15 * Updated translations: Norwegian Bokmål.
18 o bug 3306, 'HTML tag </b> is not always rendered in error
20 o bug 3308, 'build ignores --localedir'
26 * SSLv3 server connections are now disabled by default, in response
27 to the POODLE vulnerability, see
28 https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-3566.
30 * Several PGP/Core plugin improvements
31 Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying
32 signature status. For example,
33 "Good signature from %s, but the key has expired."
34 "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."
35 When displaying the full information, show the Validity, and the
36 Owner Trust level. Also indicate expired and revoked keys, and
39 The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
40 messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
42 * A new version of the RSSyl plugin, completely redesigned and
43 rewritten. Migration from the previous version is automatic,
44 it has a new storage format in ~/.claws-mail/RSSyl/ (hierarchical
45 directories instead of flat file format). It uses the expat
46 library instead of libxml2 for parsing feed data.

51 1. Match beginning of name
52 2. Match beginning of additional names
53 3. Match complete email address before @

55 5. Compare relative position of match
56 6. Compare name alphabetically
57 7. Compare address alphabetically.
59 * Due to popular demand, use of the Up key in the message body in the
60 Compose window stops at the top of the message body and does not
61 continue up to the header fields. This reverts the behaviour
62 introduced in version 3.10.0.
64 * In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
65 selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
68 * In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
71 * The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
72 folders and the tree is collapsed.
74 * When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
75 header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
76 switch to 'date' sorting.
78 * A new QuickSearch filter has been added that searches a header's
80 H S : messages which contain S in the value of any header.
82 * A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
84 * The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
86 * Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
88 * Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
90 * Python plugin: Make 'account' property of ComposeWindow read/write.

95 specifically enabled, using ./configure --enable-appdata

99 * The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to

1130 * A hidden option has been added, 'primary_paste_unselects' which
1131 causes the primary buffer to be cleared and the insertion point to
1132 be repositioned when the middle mouse button is used for pasting
