CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* 'hide_timezone', a new hidden preference that sets the timezone of
- date fields sent over the network to the unknown timezone value as
- specified in RFC 5322 §3.3. Default value is false (i.e., send
- available timezone information).
+* Message List: A context menu has been added to the column headers,
+ it has two entries: a new option, 'Lock column headers', and 'Set
+ displayed colums'.
-* 'rewrite_first_from', a new hidden preference which works around a
- limitation of some servers with 'overly-liberal parsers'. When this
- is turned on and the Content-Transfer-Encoding is set to 8bit or
- 7bit, in a message body starting with 'From ' the 'From ' will
- become '=46rom ' (i,e, encoded form of 'F') and the Content-
- Transfer-Encoding will be changed to Quoted-Printable. When it is
- turned off no such modification will be made but it is very likely
- that an MTA will convert the 'From ' to '>From '. See RFC 4155 for
- further details. Default value is '1', turned on.
+* Folder List: A context menu has been added to the column headers,
+ containing 'Set displayed columns'.
-* Templates: it is now possible to attach a file, using
- '|attach_output{sub_expr}' or '|A{sub_expr}', 'sub_expr' is
- evaluated as a command-line to get the filename name from, using an
- absolute /path/to/filename.
+* Preferences: The Display/Summaries option page has been split into
+ three notebook pages: Folder List, Message List, and Defaults.
+ The Message List page contains the new 'Lock column headers'
+ option. The Defaults page contains several new options for new
+ folders.
-* IMAP mailboxes which show subscribed folders only are now indicated
- by a green folder icon.
+* New Folder Properties: It is now possible to control signing and
+ encrypting options on the Compose page. By default it follows the
+ Account preferences, but they can be overridden to always sign
+ and/or encrypt, or never sign/encrypt.
- * The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
- an improved layout.
+* Saving sent messages: The global preference, 'Save sent messages',
+ can now be overriden by the Folder Property and Account
+ preferences. The global preference no longer needs to be activated
+ for the Account Preference, 'Put sent messages in ...' option to
+ function. Likewise, the Folder Property, 'Save copy of outgoing
+ messages to this folder instead of Sent', no longer relies on the
+ global preference being set.
-* Drafted messages: Do not add Message-ID for draft, unless the
- message already has one. A Message-ID header is now only added when
- queuing a message, and any existing Message-ID and References
- headers in drafts, if there are any, are kept.
+* SSL/TLS certificates: The SHA-256 fingerprint is now displayed, and
+ the MD5 fingerprint has been removed.
-* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
+* SSL/TLS certificates list: Status and Expiry columns have been
+ added, and expired and invalid certificates are now clearly
+ indicated.
-* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
- selected' option.
+* QuickSearch: body searches are now quicker.
-* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
- 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
+* QuickSearch: symbols used in Extended searches are now expanded
+ in the 'Edit' dialogue.
-* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
- using older versions of GnuTLS library.
+* Re-editing: Flags and tags are now preserved when re-editing a
+ message.
- Since GnuTLS 3.1.7, this minimum size is dictated by the priority
- string, and currently (GnuTLS 3.3.0) the "safe-enough" value is
- 1008 bits. We set this minimum size explicitly for older GnuTLS
- versions.
+* Fancy plugin: The minimum required webkitgtk version is now 1.10.0.
- Users who are affected by this (their servers use DH prime smaller
- than 1008 bits) can override this by using a priority string
- starting with the keyword "LEGACY". However, this keyword only
- works with GnuTLS 3.3.0 or newer.
+* PDF Viewer plugin: Ctrl+scroll now zooms.
-* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
+* Tools: added cm-break.pl script, which breaks thread references for
+ the selected messages; textviewer.pl has been updated and now
+ requires perl 5.14.1.
-* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
- subscription folder name.
+* The legacy "sylpheed-claws" symlink is no longer installed in the
+ bindir.
-* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-
-* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-
-* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
