- preferences.
+Tags: Added tag alphabetical sorting and unified the dialogues.

+Edit accounts dialogue: The 'default account' (D) column has been
+ removed, instead the default account is indicated by use of
+ bold text.

+Templates: Added ability to attach files using |attach{filename}.
+ Templates options are now presented in a tabbed layout.
-* Implemented per-account and per-folder compose/reply/forward
- Templates.
+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

+ displayed in the message view or header pane if the message
+ has no Face or X-Face header.

-* Added an "Open last opened folder at startup" option to the
- Summaries page in the Prerferences.

- window" on the Summaries page to "Only mark as read when opened
- in new window, or replied to".

+ preference has been added, 'save_parts_readwrite', which
+ permits the previous behaviour.

+IMAP: Added a button on the Folder Properties General page to allow
+ users to discard local caches.
