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.
-
Notes for this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Sylpheed-Claws is now known as Claws Mail.
- The default configuration directory is now ~/.claws-mail. The main
- configuration file is now called 'clawsrc'. When running this
- version of Claws Mail for the first time all of the configuration
- will be automatically migrated to the new location and it will be
- seamless for the user. A 'sylpheed-claws' symlink pointing to
- 'claws-mail' will be installed, therefore all scripts and other apps
- configured to use 'sylpheed-claws' will still function correctly.
+libetpan 0.49 is now required for IMAP support
