CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* GnuTLS 2.2 is now a minimum requirement if encrypted connections to
- servers are required.
+* SSLv3 server connections are now disabled by default, in response
+ to the POODLE vulnerability, see
+ https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-3566.
+
+* Several PGP/Core plugin improvements
+ Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying
+ signature status. For example,
+ "Good signature from %s, but the key has expired."
+ "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."
+ When displaying the full information, show the Validity, and the
+ Owner Trust level. Also indicate expired and revoked keys, and
+ revoked UIDs.
+
+ The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
+ messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
+
+* A new version of the RSSyl plugin, completely redesigned and
+ rewritten. Migration from the previous version is automatic,
+ it has a new storage format in ~/.claws-mail/RSSyl/ (hierarchical
+ directories instead of flat file format). It uses the expat
+ library instead of libxml2 for parsing feed data.
+
+* The results of TAB address completion in the Compose window have
+ improved ordering.
+ Order of results:
+ 1. Match beginning of name
+ 2. Match beginning of additional names
+ 3. Match complete email address before @
+ 4. Match beginning of email address
+ 5. Compare relative position of match
+ 6. Compare name alphabetically
+ 7. Compare address alphabetically.
+
+* Due to popular demand, use of the Up key in the message body in the
+ Compose window stops at the top of the message body and does not
+ continue up to the header fields. This reverts the behaviour
+ introduced in version 3.10.0.
+
+* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
+ selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
+ prevented.
+
+* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
+ line.
-* The list displays have been updated to use newer GTK+ functions,
- this means that the expanders look different and the optional dotted
- lines have been dropped.
+* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
+ folders and the tree is collapsed.
-* A hidden option, 'summary_from_show', which controls the display in
- the From column of the Message List: 0 (default): show name,
- 1: show address, 2: show name + address
-
-* The image viewer now uses the EXIF Orientation.
-
-* 'Generate X-Mailer header' has been added as an Account option.
+* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
+ header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
+ switch to 'date' sorting.
-* /View/Message scroll has been added, allowing keyboard shortcuts to
- be added and used for message scrolling.
+* A new QuickSearch filter has been added that searches a header's
+ content only.
+ H S : messages which contain S in the value of any header.
-* Home and End keys now function in the Message View.
+* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
-* /Message/Print has been added to the Compose window.
+* The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
-* Updated manuals
+* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
-* Update man page
+* Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
-* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, French,
- Hungarian, Indonesian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Ukrainian.
+* Python plugin: Make 'account' property of ComposeWindow read/write.
+
+* Libravatar plugin: a network timeout option has been added.
+
+* appdata has been added for package managers, it must be
+ specifically enabled, using ./configure --enable-appdata
+ See http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for further
+ information.
+
+* The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to
+ a Claws Mail mailbox, now handles sub-directory recursion.
+
+* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Dutch,
+ Esperanto, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Lithuanian, Slovak, Spanish,
+ and Swedish
