CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
- Properties.
+* GnuTLS 2.2 is now a minimum requirement if encrypted connections to
+ servers are required.
-* MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
- they're INVALID!).
+* The list displays have been updated to use newer GTK+ functions,
+ this means that the expanders look different and the optional dotted
+ lines have been dropped.
-* 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'.
+* A hidden option, 'summary_from_show', which controls the display in
+ the From column of the Message List: 0 (default): show name,
+ 1: show address, 2: show name + address
+
+* The image viewer now uses the EXIF Orientation.
+
+* 'Generate X-Mailer header' has been added as an Account option.
-* Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
- Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
+* /View/Message scroll has been added, allowing keyboard shortcuts to
+ be added and used for message scrolling.
-* 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.
+* Home and End keys now function in the Message View.
-* Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
+* /Message/Print has been added to the Compose window.
-* 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.
+* Updated manuals
-* Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
- added.
+* Update man page
-* 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.
-
-* Added Indonesian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Slovakian translations.
-
-* Updated Bulgarian, Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Finnish, French,
- German, Hungarian, Italian, Russian, and Spanish translations.
