CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
-Claws Mail was previously known as Sylpheed-Claws.
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* The --select option can now also select emails by Message-ID
-
-* Attaching files from 'mailto:' URIs (&attach=...) is now possible.
- A dialog is displayed to make sure that the user is aware that the
- mail will contain attachments
-
-* 'New Message format' has been added to the Compose/Writing options,
- this works like the Quote format and the same symbols are supported
-
-* Reworked the About dialog, including the addition of a new page,
- 'Features', which indicates which of the optional features are
- compiled in and which are not. A 'Release Notes' page was also
- added
-
-* Added history combo for all search fields (message and text)
-
-* The 'mark_as_read_delay' option is not hidden anymore and can be
- found in Configuration/Preferences/Summaries
-
-* Added global and per-folder preferences to set the default
- alternate dictionary
-
-* Allow spell-checking to use both current and alternate dictionaries
+* 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.
-* Added an hidden option 'addressbook_use_editaddress_dialog' to
- embed the contact editor in the addressbook window in contrast to
- a separate dialog
+* 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+ Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying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+ "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."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.
-* Added a hidden option 'unsafe_ssl_certs', to allow storing
- multiple SSL certificates for a given server/port. You will be
- asked to accept unknown certificates. Unchecking this option will
- require you to re-accept previously known certificates
+ The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
+ messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
-* Allow copying of folders between mailboxes
+* 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.
-* Better automatic account selection for mailing lists (searches for
- the email address in the Delivered-To header also)
+* 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.
-* Made the "Synchronise" menu item inactive when there's nothing to
- synchronise
+* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
+ selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
+ prevented.
-* Use Message font in Writing and Quoting preferences, as well as in
- Templates
+* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
+ line.
-* Added more HTML symbols to the html to text converter
+* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
+ folders and the tree is collapsed.
-* Save the addressbook's window size on closing
+* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
+ header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
+ switch to 'date' sorting.
-* Better checks for syntax errors are applied to Templates and Quote
- formats
+* 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.
-* Added a check to avoid trying to use a non-existent folder as
- default inbox
+* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
-* Enable setting SSL via STARTTLS from the set-up wizard
+* The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
-* Added handling of ":port" in server addresses in the set-up wizard
- to specify a port to connect to
+* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
-* Bogofilter plugin: added an option to print the X-Claws-Bogosity
- header in emails handled by the Bogofilter plugin (in MH folders
- only)
+* Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
-* Bogofilter plugin: added an option to whitelist senders found in
- addressbook

+ information.

+* The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to
