CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* 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- Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying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- "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."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.
+* More granular options on when to open a selected message have been
+ added. There are now several checkboxes on the Display/Summaries
+ page of the Preferences which allow a greater flexibility.
+
+* Compose window: Show the total size of attachments on the
+ Attachments tab.
+
+* Compose window: Bcc has been added to the headers drop-down list.
+
+* Folder list: Top-level folders can now be copied. They are created
+ as regular folders in the target mailbox.
+
+* Folder selection dialogue: Left/right keys collapse/expand rows.
+ Further keypress will move the cursor to parent or first child,
+ respectively.
-* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
- selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
- prevented.
+* Menu items: 'Mark all unread [recursively]' has been added to the
+ folder context menu, message list menu, and the main window menu
+ and toolbar.
-* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
- line.
+* Toolbar actions: Mark, Unmark, Lock, Unlock, Mark [all] read, Mark
+ [all] unread, Ignore Thread, Watch Thread, and Delete Duplicate
+ Messages have been added to the main window toolbar's Actions list.
-* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
- folders and the tree is collapsed.
+* Account compose signature: The value of the signature file now
+ takes a path relative to the user's home directory in addition to a
+ full path.
-* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
- header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
- switch to 'date' sorting.
+* Icon Themes: Support for SVG themes with icon scaling capabilities
+ has been added. This requires libRSVG 2.40.5 or newer.
-* 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.
+* Hidden preferences: colours for specifying Tags, QuickSearch, and
+ auto-filled header values have been added, both foreground and
+ background. Respectively, tags_color, tags_bgcolor,
+ qs_active_color, qs_active_bgcolor, qs_error_color,
+ qs_error_bgcolor, default_header_color, and default_header_bgcolor.
-* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
+* Hidden preferences: warn_sending_many_recipients_num, if greater
+ than zero, a warning dialogue is shown when the number of
+ recipients exceeds the number given.
