Notes for this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-As image viewing is directly supported under GTK2 the Image Viewer
-plugin is obsolete and has been removed.
+* 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).
+
+ Whether or not the selected message is opened is now exclusively
+ controlled by the 'Always open message when selected' option.
+
+* Filtering and Processing rules can now be given a name. The
+ configuration file is converted to the new format automatically and
+ the old file is backed up to ~/.sylpheed-gtk2/matcherrc.pre_names.
+
+* A new icon for the Trash button has been added.
+
+* The 'Bold font' option has been removed. A displayed bold font is
+ now derived from the normal font.
+
+* The option 'Display recipient in 'From' column if sender is yourself'
+ has been removed from the GUI. It still exists as a hidden option,
+ available in ~/.sylpheed-gtk2/sylpheedrc as 'enable_swap_from'.
