+Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
-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.
+* Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
+ Properties.
-* UIDPLUS support has been added for IMAP.
+* MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
+ they're INVALID!).
-* 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...'.
+* 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'.
-* 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.
+* Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
+ Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
-* Support for Address Book Groups has been added to the Compose
- window's automatic address completion.
+* 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.
-* 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.
+* Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
-* 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.
+* 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.
-* 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
+* Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
added.
-* Several optimisations have been made.
+* 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
+ thunderbird import for version 2.0.0.21 has been added.
-* The manual has been updated.
+* Added Indonesian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Slovakian translations.
-* Updated translations in Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Dutch, French,
- German, Italian, Simplified Chinese, Slovak, Spanish, and Swedish
+* Updated Bulgarian, Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Finnish, French,
+ German, Hungarian, Italian, Russian, and Spanish translations.
