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:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Due to licensing problems, the ClamAV plugin has been removed from
- the Claws Mail core distribution and can now been found packaged
- separately or with the 'extra plugins' package.
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added NetworkManager support
- This is built by default if the dependencies are satisfied; it can
- be specifically disabled with '--disable-networkmanager-support'.
- This enables Claws Mail to track changes to the network status.
-
-* Added DIGEST-MD5 support for IMAP authentication
-
-* Added Folder Properties option, 'Run processing rules when opening'
- to the General page.
-
-* Added sub-sorting to the Message List; when the Sort type is either
- Subject, From, To or Tags, sub-sorting by Date will be active.
-
-* Added from=address to the mailto sequence
- The 'from' will try to select the first matching account in the
- Accounts list, otherwise it will use the usual account selection
- mechanism but will override it with the given 'from' address.
-
-* Added insert=FILE to the mailto sequence (stands for 'insert file')
- This adds the ability to create a new message from the command-line,
- with the body set from the contents of an existing file.
-
-* Added mailto with NNTP accounts
- This comes into play if mailto is used when an NNTP account is the
- default account or if an NNTP account address is used with 'from'.
-
-* Added several GUI improvements to the Filtering, Processing, Tags,
- Actions, Templates, Logging and Address Book dialogues
-
-* Added a tooltip to the 'replied' icon in the Message List which
- indicates 'click to see your reply' feature.
-
-* Added 'claws-mail --version-full' to display the version and a list
- of the compiled-in features
-
-* Implemented speed-ups to list operations, deletions and cache
- updates.
-
-* Updated the man page
-
-* The Trayicon plugin icons are now themable.
+* The user is now warned when inserting a large file in the message
+ body. The value of 'large' can be configured on the Compose/Writing
+ page of the Preferences.
