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- Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying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- "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."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.
+* '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.
+
+* The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
+ an improved layout.
-* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
- selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
- prevented.
+* 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.
-* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
- line.
+* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
- folders and the tree is collapsed.
+* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
+ selected' option.
-* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
- header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
- switch to 'date' sorting.
+* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
+ 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-* 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.
+* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
+ using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
+ 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 menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
+ 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.
-* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
+* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-* Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
+* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
+ subscription folder name.
-* Python plugin: Make 'account' property of ComposeWindow read/write.
+* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-* Libravatar plugin: a network timeout option has been added.
+* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-* 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.
+* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
-* The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to
- a Claws Mail mailbox, now handles sub-directory recursion.
+* Updated manual in English and Spanish.
-* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Dutch,
- Esperanto, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Lithuanian, Slovak, Spanish,
- and Swedish
+* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Czech, Danish,
+ Dutch, Finnish, French, Hebrew, Indonesian, Italian, Norwegian
+ Bokmål, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Traditional Chinese,
+ and Turkish.
