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.
+* Preferences: for the 'default selection on entering a folder' on
+ the Display/Summaries page, the first new, first unread, and first
+ marked message options are now sort-order aware.
-* 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- Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying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- "Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."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.
+* Preferences: the previously hidden preference to 'Warn when sending
+ to more recipients than []' has been added to the
+ Mail Handling/Sending page.
- The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
- messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
+* Preferences: Toolbars/Compose window: Sign/Encrypt toggle buttons
+ can been added to the toolbar.
-* 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.
+* Preferences: Fancy Plugin: allow stylesheet file/folder names to
+ have spaces in them.
-* 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.
+* Account Preferences: a 'Show password' checkbox has been added next
+ to the password fields.
-* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
- selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
- prevented.
+* Account Preferences: the OpenPGP and S/MIME preferences have been
+ split into two separate pages.
-* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
- line.
+* Account Preferences: newline characters are disallowed in account
+ usernames and passwords, and warnings are shown to the user if this
+ is attempted.
-* The Queue folder is highlighted if there are messages in its sub-
- folders and the tree is collapsed.
+* Compose: more UTF-8 list-item characters have been added.
-* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
- header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
- switch to 'date' sorting.
+* Address book: a 'Show password' checkbox has been added next to the
+ LDAP server 'bind password' field.
-* 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.
+* GPG: full key/signature fingerprints are now shown instead of the
+ short versions.
-* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
+* SSL Certificate Manager: added support for ipv6 addresses.
-* The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
+* NNTP: Fetch XOVER and XHDR data in batches of 5000 and use the
+ statusbar progress meter when opening/refreshing a NNTP folder.
-* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
+* CLI: the --insert option has been added to --compose, to allow
+ inserting files from the command line.

+* Plugins window: keyboard shortcuts to Load/Unload buttons have
+ been added.

- information.
+* Tools: a simple bash completion helper has been added,
+ tools/bash_completion/claws-mail.
