CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
-Notes for this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-libetpan 0.49 is now required for IMAP support
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added "From, To or Subject" to the QuickSearch types.
-
-* Added handling of the 'a' key to loop through a mail's MIME parts.
-
-* In the Compose window "Add to address book" has been added to the
- context menu of the sender and recipient fields.
-
-* Implemented a proper References filtering condition.
-
-* Added the possibility to cancel receiving in IMAP accounts.
-
-* Made offline synchronisation faster.
-
-* Added an alternate way to fetch flags on IMAP, which improves
- performance with some servers, (like Exchange).
- See "Bandwidth-efficient mode" in IMAP accounts' Receive
- preferences.
-
-* Allow manual sorting of Templates.
-
-* Templates improvements: easier syntax, add some useful variables.
+* Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
+ Properties.
-* Implemented per-account and per-folder compose/reply/forward
- Templates.
+* MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
+ they're INVALID!).
-* Added a QuickSearch option to automatically run a search selected
- from the history.
+* 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'.
-* Made the Summaries Preferemces page "when entering a folder..."
- options fully customisable.
+* Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
+ Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
-* Added an "Open last opened folder at startup" option to the
- Summaries page in the Prerferences.
+* 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.
-* Changed the Preference "Only mark as read when opened in new
- window" on the Summaries page to "Only mark as read when opened
- in new window, or replied to".
+* Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
-* Allow disabling mail filtering plugins on a per-account
- basis.
+* 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.
-* Added an option to the Bogofilter and SpamAssassin plugins to
- enable marking saved spam as Read.
+* Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
+ added.
-* Added a warning about encryption limits, which can be disabled.
+* GnuTLS compatibility mode is now used, this avoids problems with
+ servers that don't comply 100% with the spec, but still exist.
-* Removed the "Download all" preference from POP3 accounts; it
- was useless and confusing.
+* tools/csv2addressbook.pl
+ thunderbird import for version 2.0.0.21 has been added.
-* Re-organized some Preferences page.
+* Added Indonesian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Slovakian translations.

-
-* The keypad's Enter key now does the same as the Return key.
-
-* Improved LDIF import, better error handling, UI cleanup.
