-

-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* The Compose window now has an /Options/Reply mode/ menu. This
- enables changing the recipients of a reply on the fly.
+* 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.
-* QuickSearch now has a type-ahead option for fast searches.
+* Folder list: Top-level folders can now be copied. They are created
+ as regular folders in the target mailbox.
-* Extra symbols are now available for the Quote parser, your name,
- your email address, the account name, and the organization.
+* Folder selection dialogue: Left/right keys collapse/expand rows.
+ Further keypress will move the cursor to parent or first child,
+ respectively.
-* In the Folder Properties, it is now possible to test the regular
- expression used in the Simplify Subject RegExp option.
+* Menu items: 'Mark all unread [recursively]' has been added to the
+ folder context menu, message list menu, and the main window menu
+ and toolbar.
-* GSSAPI support has been added for IMAP.
+* 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.
-* UIDPLUS support has been added for IMAP.
+* 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.
-* A Stop button has been added for Message Body searches, enabling
- cancelling of a running search. This is available in '/Edit/Search
- Folder...' and '/Edit/Find in current message...'.
+* Icon Themes: Support for SVG themes with icon scaling capabilities
+ has been added. This requires libRSVG 2.40.5 or newer.
-* libSM support has been added. This enables communication with the
- session manager, so that it is known when the session ends, in
- order to save the caches, and draft any messages currently being
- composed.
+* 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,

- window's automatic address completion.
+* 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.
-* a new hidden option has been added, 'respect_flowed_format'. This
- follows RFC3676 with regard to a message part with a Content-Type
- that includes 'format=flowed' and 'delsp=yes'. This will cause some
- mails to have long lines, but will fix some URLs that would
- otherwise be wrapped. By default it is turned off.
+* GData plugin: This plugin now requires libgdata version 0.17.2 or
+ newer.
-* Basic key import/export has been added to the PGP plugins. When
- generating a new key pair you can export the public key to a key
- server. When selecting the signature part of a message, if the key
- is not on your keyring, you will be asked if you want to attempt
- to import it from a keyserver.
+* TNEF parser plugin: This plugin now uses an external libytnef.
-* The TrayIcon now displays 'offline' status.
+* vCalendar plugin: This plugin now uses an external libical, version
+ 2.0.0 or newer is required.
-* More window sizes and placements are remembered across sessions.
+* Mail Archiver plugin: - updated to support some of the compression
+ formats up to libarchive 3.2.2
