CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* '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.
-
-* 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.
-
-* Disable hiding threads and messages in draft folders.
-
-* The /View/Go to/... actions now respect the 'Open message when
- selected' option.
-
-* In the UI 'POP' is used instead of 'POP3', 'IMAP' instead of
- 'IMAP4', 'SSL/TLS' instead of 'SSL'.
-
-* GnuTLS: Enforce "strong enough" Diffie-Hellman prime even when
- using older versions of GnuTLS library.
-
- 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.
-
- 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.
-
-* RSSyl plugin: Enable keeping old items by default.
-
-* vCalendar plugin: The ics file name is now used for the WebCal
- subscription folder name.
-
-* vCalendar plugin: Use hours/minutes for vcalendar alert time.
-
-* Notification plugin: Add support for unity/messaging menu.
-
-* PDF Viewer plugin: The icons are now themeable.
-
-* Updated manual in English and Spanish.
