Notes for this release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * libetpan 0.48 or greater is now required for IMAP support. New in this release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * The Compose window now has an /Options/Reply mode/ menu. This enables changing the recipients of a reply on the fly. * QuickSearch now has a type-ahead option for fast searches. * Extra symbols are now available for the Quote parser, your name, your email address, the account name, and the organization. * In the Folder Properties, it is now possible to test the regular expression used in the Simplify Subject RegExp option. * GSSAPI support has been added for IMAP. * UIDPLUS support has been added for IMAP. * A Stop button has been added for Message Body searches, enabling cancelling of a running search. This is available in '/Edit/Search Folder...' and '/Edit/Find in current message...'. * libSM support has been added. This enables communication with the session manager, so that it is known when the session ends, in order to save the caches, and draft any messages currently being composed. * Support for Address Book Groups has been added to the Compose window's automatic address completion. * a new hidden option has been added, 'respect_flowed_format'. This follows RFC3676 with regard to a message part with a Content-Type that includes 'format=flowed' and 'delsp=yes'. This will cause some mails to have long lines, but will fix some URLs that would otherwise be wrapped. By default it is turned off. * Basic key import/export has been added to the PGP plugins. When generating a new key pair you can export the public key to a key server. When selecting the signature part of a message, if the key is not on your keyring, you will be asked if you want to attempt to import it from a keyserver. * The TrayIcon now displays 'offline' status. * More window sizes and placements are remembered across sessions. * tools/fix_date.sh: Switches to replace non RFC-compliant Date: value, and to use strict RFC matching patterns for dates have been added. * Several optimisations have been made. * The manual has been updated. * Updated translations in Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Simplified Chinese, Slovak, Spanish, and Swedish * Bug fixes: o bug 1035, 'Incorrect handling of flowed lines' o bug 1036, 'Forwarding a mutlipart mail with a "text/html" block to ms outlook users leeds to freeze of outlook' o bug 1044, 'sylpheed-claws segfaults while moving mails' o bug 1045, 'sylpheed-claws doesn't remove the mail from the IMAP Queue folder after sending' o bug 1046, 'jpilot AddressDB.pdb import fail' o bug 1048, 'Spamassassin plugin license problem' o fix broken storage of quote format template when it contains \-escape sequences o fix crash when printing emails with an xface o fix building on BSDs o fix duplicate error messages when sending o do not delete the contacts when deleting address book groups o tools/fix_date.sh: fix date value extraction For further details of the numbered bugs listed above consult http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/sylpheed-claws/bugzilla/index.cgi * and other code reorganisation, cleanups, and more. --------------------------------------------------------------------- See ChangeLog and README for full information regarding changes in this release.
