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:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Expanding/Collapsing of threads is now approximately 95% faster.
+* '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).
-* Cache reading is now approximately 10% faster.
+* '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.
-* The shortcut key settings of the main window and the message list
- context menus are now connected.
+* 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.
-* The preferences on the 'Other' page have now been moved to
- Other/Miscellaneous. The parent pages are now unselectable and the
- first page is automatically selected on opening the preferences.
+* IMAP mailboxes which show subscribed folders only are now indicated
+ by a green folder icon.
-* In the Compose window, on the Others tab, the 'Save message to'
- entry now has a drop-down list of the previous save locations.
+* The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
+ an improved layout.
-* In the Compose window, the Attachments Properties window is now
- confirmed and closed with the Return key.
+* 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.
-* When using an external editor to compose messages, the message is
- automatically saved to Drafts when the external editor is closed.
+* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-* A hidden option has been added, 'primary_paste_unselects' which
- causes the primary buffer to be cleared and the insertion point to
- be repositioned when the middle mouse button is used for pasting
- text. It is turned off by default.
+* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
+ selected' option.
-* In the Actions window, the Escape key now cancels the action
- editing.
+* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
+ 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-* Offline SSL certificate verification has been added.
+* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
+ using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-* Privacy plugins: The decryption failure messages are now shown
- in the NoticeView just above the message text rather than in a
- popup window.
+ 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.
-* Privacy plugins: when listing the UIDs during a signature check,
- show the UID validity
+ 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.
-* tools/kdeservicemenu
- Support for kde4 has been added.
+* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-* tools/popfile-link.sh
- Support for reusing existing POPFile session ID has been added.
+* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
+ subscription folder name.
-* win32: better integration has been implemented by using the
- standard file associations.
+* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-* The user manuals have been updated.
+* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-* Updated Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Catalan, Finnish, French,
- German, Hungarian, and Swedish translations.
+* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
-* Added Czech translation.
+* Updated manual in English and Spanish.
-* Removed unmaintained Serbian and Slovak translations.
+* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Czech, Danish,
+ Dutch, Finnish, French, Hebrew, Indonesian, Italian, Norwegian

+ and Turkish.
