CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added support for /dev/mem_notify. This Linux kernel feature
- will allow applications to be notified that memory has to be
- freed before getting OOM-killed.
- For more information: http://lwn.net/Articles/267013/
+* Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
+ Properties.
-* Enabled moving/copying folders to root folders when using the
- folder selection dialogue.
+* MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
+ they're INVALID!).
-* Global and per-folder templates can now override the From name.
+* A 'Metadata handling' option has been added to the Miscellaneous
+ options page. The options are 'safer' or 'faster'. 'faster' is
+ Claws' original behaviour. 'safer' prevents data loss on system
+ crashes where the filesystem is of a 'not-so-robust' variety, e.g.
+ xfs. If in doubt, use 'safer'. This option defaults to 'safer'.
-* Added a tooltip with extended folder stats. (Hover the cursor over
- the short stats on the right, below the message list.)
+* Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
+ Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
-* Implemented 2-line items in the message list when in three column
- mode.
+* An option has been added to the Receive page of IMAP account
+ preferences, "Move deleted mails to trash and expunge immediately".
+ This option is on by default to avoid changing the existing
+ behaviour. Turning it off prevents automatic expunging.
+ Also, 'Tools/Expunge' and 'View/Hide deleted messages' menu items
+ have been added to main toolbar.
-* Added support for png themes.
+* Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
-* Added an icon for attached patches (text/x-patch and text/x-diff).
+* In the Compose window a warning dialogue is raised if attachments
+ that have been added no longer exist on the filesystem at the time
+ of sending.
-* When viewing a message that has a large amount of text, show a
- maximum of 1MB of text and add a noticeview to show optionally show
- the whole message.
+* Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
+ added.
-* Added a button to the templates preferences to restore defaults for
- current language.
-
-* Added search in filtering rules list.
-
-* Bogofilter Plugin:
- Added a "learn from whitelist" preference.
-
-* MAEMO:
- Added information when fetching large messages.
+* GnuTLS compatibility mode is now used, this avoids problems with
+ servers that don't comply 100% with the spec, but still exist.
* tools/csv2addressbook.pl
- Added support for Kmail/Kaddressbook.
+ thunderbird import for version 2.0.0.21 has been added.
