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
+* Preferences are now saved to disk immediately on pressing OK or
+ Apply.
-* Added Folder Properties option, 'Run processing rules when opening'
- to the General page.
+* New preferences have been added for default sorting of the message
+ lists. They are found in the 'Message list' frame of the Display/
+ Summaries page of the general preferences. These options only apply
+ to newly created folders.
-* 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.
+* The menu item 'Delete thread' has been moved to the Message menu.
+ Previously clicking it would not delete the thread, but just move
+ it to the Trash folder. Now it will delete the thread.
+ An additional menu item has been added, 'Move thread to trash',
+ which implements the original behaviour.
-* 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.
+* Compose window: By default it is no longer possible to add user-
+ defined headers, with only those pre-defined in the drop down menus
+ being possible. To restore the old behaviour, a new hidden
+ preference has been added: 'type_any_header', setting this to 1
+ restores the old behaviour.
-* 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'.
+* Automatic account selection is now also applied when you reply to
+ one of your own messages, e.g. from the Sent folder.
-* Added several GUI improvements to the Filtering, Processing, Tags,
- Actions, Templates, Logging and Address Book dialogues
+* Folder list: The Left and Right cursor keys now collapse or expand
+ the currently selected folder tree item. The Left cursor key also
+ moves the selection to parent folder, if current folder is within
+ a collapsed tree.
-* Added a tooltip to the 'replied' icon in the Message List which
- indicates 'click to see your reply' feature.
+* Folder list: The Home and End keys now move the selection to the
+ first folder and last folder in the tree.
-* Added 'claws-mail --version-full' to display the version and a list
- of the compiled-in features
+* Account Auto-configuration: when errors occur, a more detailed
+ error message is shown.
-* Implemented speed-ups to list operations, deletions and cache
- updates.
+* GnuPG plugins: An option has been added to specify the location of
+ the GnuPG executable.
-* Updated the man page
+* GnuPG plugins: A new hidden preference has been added which limits
+ the number of results returned when using your keyring for address
+ auto-completion: 'autocompletion_limit'. The default value is 0,
+ which means there is no limit, any other number will limit the
+ results to that number.
-* The Trayicon plugin icons are now themable.
+* Python plugin: Folder has been added to MessageInfo objects.
-* text/calendar message parts are now automatically displayed if a
- plugin handling text/calendar is loaded, e.g. vCalendar.
+* The GeoLocation plugin is no longer included.
-* Maemo: connect HW status change signal for shutdown
+* The user manual has been updated.
-* Maemo: identify mmc1 and mmc2 more clearly in the GUI
+* The man page has been updated.
-* Maemo: Make dnd threshold higher
+* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech,
+ Dutch, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Norwegian Bokmål,
+ Slovak, Spanish, Swedish.
-* New translations: Hebrew
+* New translations: Italian, Traditional Chinese.
