CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added support for /dev/mem_notify. This Linux kernel feature
- will allow applications to be notified that memory has to be
- freed before getting OOM-killed.
- For more information: http://lwn.net/Articles/267013/
+* '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).
+
+* '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.
+
+* 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.
+
+* IMAP mailboxes which show subscribed folders only are now indicated
+ by a green folder icon.
-* Enabled moving/copying folders to root folders when using the
- folder selection dialogue.
+* The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
+ an improved layout.
-* Global and per-folder templates can now override the From name.
+* 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.
-* Added a tooltip with extended folder stats. (Hover the cursor over
- the short stats on the right, below the message list.)
+* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-* Implemented 2-line items in the message list when in three column
- mode.
+* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
+ selected' option.
-* Added support for png themes.
+* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
+ 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-* Added an icon for attached patches (text/x-patch and text/x-diff).
+* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
+ using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-* When viewing a message that has a large amount of text, show a
- maximum of 1MB of text and add a noticeview to show optionally show
- the whole 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.
-* Added a button to the templates preferences to restore defaults for
- current language.
+ 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.
-* Added search in filtering rules list.
+* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-* Bogofilter Plugin:
- Added a "learn from whitelist" preference.
+* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
+ subscription folder name.
-* MAEMO:
- Added information when fetching large messages.
+* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-* tools/csv2addressbook.pl
- Added support for Kmail/Kaddressbook.
+* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French,
- German, and Italian.
+* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
+
+* Updated manual in English and Spanish.
+
+* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Czech, Danish,
+ Dutch, Finnish, French, Hebrew, Indonesian, Italian, Norwegian
+ Bokmål, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Traditional Chinese,
+ and Turkish.
