CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
-Notes for this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* Due to licensing problems, the ClamAV plugin has been removed from
- the Claws Mail core distribution and can now been found packaged
- separately or with the 'extra plugins' package.
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added NetworkManager support
- This is built by default if the dependencies are satisfied; it can
- be specifically disabled with '--disable-networkmanager-support'.
- This enables Claws Mail to track changes to the network status.
+* '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).
-* Added DIGEST-MD5 support for IMAP authentication
+* '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.
-* Added Folder Properties option, 'Run processing rules when opening'
- to the General page.
+* 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.
-* Added sub-sorting to the Message List; when the Sort type is either
- Subject, From, To or Tags, sub-sorting by Date will be active.
+* IMAP mailboxes which show subscribed folders only are now indicated
+ by a green folder icon.
-* Added from=address to the mailto sequence
- The 'from' will try to select the first matching account in the
- Accounts list, otherwise it will use the usual account selection
- mechanism but will override it with the given 'from' address.
+* The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
+ an improved layout.
-* Added insert=FILE to the mailto sequence (stands for 'insert file')
- This adds the ability to create a new message from the command-line,
- with the body set from the contents of an existing file.
-
-* Added mailto with NNTP accounts
- This comes into play if mailto is used when an NNTP account is the
- default account or if an NNTP account address is used with 'from'.
+* 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 several GUI improvements to the Filtering, Processing, Tags,
- Actions, Templates, Logging and Address Book dialogues
+* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-* Added a tooltip to the 'replied' icon in the Message List which
- indicates 'click to see your reply' feature.
+* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
+ selected' option.
-* Added 'claws-mail --version-full' to display the version and a list
- of the compiled-in features
+* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
+ 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-* Implemented speed-ups to list operations, deletions and cache
- updates.
+* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
+ using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-* Updated the man page
+ 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.
-* The Trayicon plugin icons are now themable.
+ 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.
-* text/calendar message parts are now automatically displayed if a
- plugin handling text/calendar is loaded, e.g. vCalendar.
+* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-* Maemo: connect HW status change signal for shutdown
+* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
+ subscription folder name.
-* Maemo: identify mmc1 and mmc2 more clearly in the GUI
+* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-* Maemo: Make dnd threshold higher
+* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-* New translations: Hebrew
+* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
-* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech,
- Finnish, German, Hungarian, Italian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish
+* 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.
