CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Non-blocking NNTP has been implemented. NNTP support is now provided
- by and depends upon libetpan
+* The TAB address completion in the Compose window now matches any
+ part of the address and not just the beginning.
-GnuTLS support has been implemented as an alternative to OpenSSL.
- [./configure --enable-gnutls]
+* When copying or moving a message, the type-ahead search now matches
+ any part of a folder name and not just the beginning.
-A run-time alternative configuration directory switch has been added,
- [claws-mail --alternate-config-dir DIR]
+* It is now possible to replace the current signature in the Compose
+ window by using the '/Message/Replace signature' menu item.
-Tags: Added tag alphabetical sorting and unified the dialogues.
+* It is now possible to disable the 'Subject is empty' warning
+ dialogue. See the option 'Warn when Subject is empty' option on the
+ '/Configuration/Preferences/Mail handling/Sending' page.
+
+* When sending messages, if the hostname cannot be determined,
+ fallback to 'localhost' rather than 'unknown', as the latter is
+ rejected by some servers.
-Edit accounts dialogue: The 'default account' (D) column has been
- removed, instead the default account is indicated by use of
- bold text.
+* Added better handling of messages from broken mailers, such as
+ yahoo groups.
-Templates: Added ability to attach files using |attach{filename}.
- Templates options are now presented in a tabbed layout.
+* PDF plugin: the minimum required version of poppler is 0.12.0.
-Address Book: Added duplicate finder, '/Tools/Find duplicates'.
- It is now possible to set an image for each contact. Pictures
- from a contact's Face or X-Face will be automatically set
- when available. The contact's image will be automatically
- displayed in the message view or header pane if the message
- has no Face or X-Face header.
+* PGP/* plugin: long key IDs are now displayed in the dialogues
+ instead of short IDs.
-'/View/Character encoding' submenus are now grouped together

+* Python plugin: can now access accounts, mailboxes, folder
+ properties
-Reinstated 'Generate Message-ID' option as an Account preference. It
- is hidden on IMAP accounts, because Message-IDs are needed on
- servers that don't implement the UIDPLUS extension.

-Toolbar preferences: Improved dialogue.
+* Translation updates: Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Dutch, French,

- title.
