http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- the Display/Summaries page, the first new, first unread, and first
- marked message options are now sort-order aware.
+* 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'.

- to more recipients than []' has been added to the
- Mail Handling/Sending page.

+ folders.
-* Preferences: Fancy Plugin: allow stylesheet file/folder names to
- have spaces in them.
+* New Folder Properties: It is now possible to control signing and

- to the password fields.
+* Saving sent messages: The global preference, 'Save sent messages',

+ messages to this folder instead of Sent', no longer relies on the
+ global preference being set.

- split into two separate pages.
