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:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Claws Mail now requires libetpan 0.56 for IMAP and NNTP
-
-* Spell checking is now provided by Enchant instead of Aspell. To
- build spell checker support, you will need the libenchant headers.
-
-* The S/MIME plugin is now part of this package.
-
-* IMAP, NNTP, and SSL are now supported in the Windows port.
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Support for client SSL certificates.
+* Preferences are now saved to disk immediately on pressing OK or
+ Apply.
-* Better support of SSL certificate stores, to be able to verify
- server certificates.
+* 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.
-* Renaming of newsgroups is possible.
+* 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.
-* "Always open message when selected" can now have three values:
- 'Never', 'Always' and 'When message view is visible'.
+* 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.
-* Unsaved server passwords can now be temporarily saved for the
- duration of the session. They can be cleared before the session
- expires by using '/Tools/Forget all session passwords'.
+* Automatic account selection is now also applied when you reply to
+ one of your own messages, e.g. from the Sent folder.
-* Auto-wrapping settings are now saved in drafted messages.
+* 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.
-* Support for basic auto-indentation in the Compose window.
+* Folder list: The Home and End keys now move the selection to the
+ first folder and last folder in the tree.
-* Support for animated GIFs in the message view.
+* Account Auto-configuration: when errors occur, a more detailed
+ error message is shown.
-* Type-ahead search in Filtering, Templates, Actions dialogs now
- select the result of the search.
+* GnuPG plugins: An option has been added to specify the location of
+ the GnuPG executable.
-* Finer granularity in POP3 accounts' Remove After delay - hours in
- addition to days.
+* 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.
-* Spam/Ham flag is now stored on IMAP server when possible, using
- "Junk" and "NonJunk" keywords.
+* Python plugin: Folder has been added to MessageInfo objects.
-* Use less precise intervals when possible for auto-checking, thus
- the CPU is woken up less frequently.
+* The GeoLocation plugin is no longer included.
-* The warning icon in the main window is cleared when the error it
- relates to is clipped from the network log.
+* The user manual has been updated.
-* IMAP errors now reveal the server on which they happen.
+* The man page has been updated.
-* All deprecated GTK interfaces have been replaced with their
- non-deprecated equivalents.

+ Dutch, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Norwegian Bokmål,
+ Slovak, Spanish, Swedish.
-* csv2addressbook.pl: Added support for FoxMail.
