27th June 2005 Sylpheed-Claws 1.9.12 SYLPHEED-CLAWS RELEASE NOTES http://claws.sylpheed.org the "Welcome back IMAP" release Sylpheed-Claws is an extended version of Sylpheed, a GTK+ based, lightweight, and fast e-mail client This is the GTK 2 version of Sylpheed-Claws. Notes for this release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * IMAP support Perhaps the most significant changes in this release have happened in the IMAP code. Over the months we have received several bug reports and complaints from IMAP users. The changes to the IMAP implementation in this release are mostly concerned with speedups in imap operation, and using non- blocking I/O as much as possible. There have been far too many changes to list them here in these release notes, so interested users are pointed at ChangeLog-gtk2.claws. There are more significant changes to the IMAP implemenation planned, but IMAP users should already find this release is a lot more comfortable for them. * Performance increases Users will discover substantial performance increases when re-sorting folders, when using 'Select all', and when using 'Mark all read' * /Message/Delete and /Message/Move to trash '/Message/Delete' has been renamed '/Message/Move to trash' and '/Message/Delete' has been added. '/Message/Delete' will now directly destroy the message, after asking for a confirmation, instead of moving it to the Trash folder. * Common Preferences All '/Configuration/Preferences/Common/...' options have been integrated into the new style options interface. * PGP MIME plugin The 'PGP/MIME' plugin has been renamed 'PGP MIME', users will need to reselect 'PGP MIME' as their default privacy system in their account's Privacy preferences. * LDAP The bind password is no longer visible onscreen. New in this release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * An option to encrypt replies to encrypted messages by default '/[Account Prefs]/Account/Privacy/Encrypt message by default when replying to an encrypted message' * Filtering rules can be reordered by drag n drop * '/Options/Character encoding/...' has been added to the Compose window to enable temporarily changing the outgoing encoding * Hebrew encodings have been added * The 'Show all headers' option is now sticky. * Return Receipts can now be sent from any account. * A clip/signed icon has been added.
