CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* SSLv3 server connections are now disabled by default, in response
- to the POODLE vulnerability, see
- https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-3566.
-
-* Several PGP/Core plugin improvements
- Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying
- signature status. For example,
- "Good signature from %s, but the key has expired."
- "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."
- When displaying the full information, show the Validity, and the
- Owner Trust level. Also indicate expired and revoked keys, and
- revoked UIDs.
-
- The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
- messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
-
-* A new version of the RSSyl plugin, completely redesigned and
- rewritten. Migration from the previous version is automatic,
- it has a new storage format in ~/.claws-mail/RSSyl/ (hierarchical
- directories instead of flat file format). It uses the expat
- library instead of libxml2 for parsing feed data.
-
-* The results of TAB address completion in the Compose window have
- improved ordering.
- Order of results:
- 1. Match beginning of name
- 2. Match beginning of additional names
- 3. Match complete email address before @
- 4. Match beginning of email address
- 5. Compare relative position of match
- 6. Compare name alphabetically
- 7. Compare address alphabetically.
-
-* Due to popular demand, use of the Up key in the message body in the
- Compose window stops at the top of the message body and does not
- continue up to the header fields. This reverts the behaviour
- introduced in version 3.10.0.
-
-* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
- selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
- prevented.
-
-* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
- line.
-
-* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
- folders and the tree is collapsed.
-
-* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
- header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
- switch to 'date' sorting.
-
-* A new QuickSearch filter has been added that searches a header's
- content only.
- H S : messages which contain S in the value of any header.
-
-* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
-
-* The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
-
-* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
-
-* Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
-
-* Python plugin: Make 'account' property of ComposeWindow read/write.
-
-* Libravatar plugin: a network timeout option has been added.
-
-* appdata has been added for package managers, it must be
- specifically enabled, using ./configure --enable-appdata
- See http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for further
- information.
-
-* The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to
- a Claws Mail mailbox, now handles sub-directory recursion.
