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:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* IMAP with STARTTLS
- The certificate port on TLS was fixed, however this will trigger
- one wrong 'New certificate' warning on the first connection.
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added an option, "Use secure file deletion if possible", which
- enables shredding of temporary files and messages instead of
- just removing them. This is available on the Other preferences
- page.
+* '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.
-* Added an option, "Select the HTML part of multipart/alternative
- messages". This is available on the Message View/Text Options
- preferences 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 an option to the 'Create new folder' dialogue which enables
- new folders to inherit the properties of their parent folders
- during folder creation.
+* IMAP mailboxes which show subscribed folders only are now indicated
+ by a green folder icon.
-* Added a hidden option, "two_line_vertical", which toggles the
- 2-line view in the message list when using the 3-column layout.
- Defaults to '1', show 2 lines.
+* The Icon Legend has had the missing folder icons added and also has
+ an improved layout.
-* Added a hidden option, "outgoing_fallback_to_ascii", which allows
- the user to specify an outgoing charset/encoding, but still fall
- back to 7bit US-ASCII when possible.
- Defaults to '1', fallback when possible.
+* 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 support for the Avant Window Navgator (Awn) information
- bubble. This is automatically enabled if dbus is available.
+* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-* Face and X-Face headers can now be added globally and per-account
- from configuration files under ~/.claws-mail/autofaces/. Further
- information is provided in the manual.
+* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
+ selected' option.
-* The SHA1 fingerprint is now shown on the SSL certificate dialogue
- and the labels are now selectable.
+* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
+ 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-* Several GUI improvements have been made, (Address book, filtering
- dialogue, Actions dialogue, and Account preferences).
+* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
+ using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-* New icons have been added for 'Reply to list' and 'Cancel'. The
- 'Insert file' and 'Close' icons have been improved, as have the
- tray icons.
+ 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 the Trash and Delete icons to the Custom Toolbars options.
+ 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.
-* SMTP-only accounts are now not shown in the Receive menus and
- Account lists in filtering/processing, as they are irrelevant here.
+* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-* tools/csv2addressbook.pl
- Support for a gmail exported csv address book was added.
+* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
+ subscription folder name.
-* Updated English, French, and Spanish manuals.
+* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French,
- German, and Spanish.
+* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-* Removed unmaintained translations: Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech,
- Dutch, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Russian,
- Swedish, and Taiwanese. (New maintainers are very welcome,
- contact paul@claws-mail.org)
+* 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.
