Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Replied and Forwarded message status flags are now non-exclusive.

- where both the Replied and Forwarded flags are set
+* Passwords can now be secured with a Master Passphrase.
+ (/Configuration/Preferences/Other/Miscellaneous/)
+
+* Passwords: The password storage method has changed. All passwords
+ are now stored in a separate file, (~/.claws-mail/passwordstorerc),
+ and use a stronger encryption than previously. Existing passwords
+ are moved to the new file automatically, in the old format. The
+ new format will be used whenever old passwords are changed or when
+ a Master Passphrase is used. All new passwords are saved using the
+ new format, irrespective of whether a Master Passphrase is used or
+ not. Further information can be found here:
