CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
- Properties.
+* Complete SSL certificate chains are now saved, and if built with
+ Libetpan 1.4.1, the IMAP SSL connection's certificate chain is made
+ available. Both of these allow correct certificate verification
+ instead of a bogus 'No certificate issuer found' status.
+
+* Auto-configuration of account email servers, based on SRV records,
+ is now possible. (GLib >= 2.22 is required.)
+
+* Added a preference to avoid automatically drafting emails that are
+ to be sent encrypted, (Configuration/Preferences/Compose/Writing).
+
+* Messages saved as Drafts are now saved as New, highlighting the
+ Drafts folder, in order to draw the attention to unfinished mails
+ there.
+
+* It is now possible to add a 'Replace signature' button to the
+ Compose window toolbar.
+
+* Quotation wrapping and undo/redo in the Compose window has been
+ improved.
-* MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
- they're INVALID!).
+* 'Reply to all' now excludes your own address.
-* A 'Metadata handling' option has been added to the Miscellaneous
- options page. The options are 'safer' or 'faster'. 'faster' is
- Claws' original behaviour. 'safer' prevents data loss on system
- crashes where the filesystem is of a 'not-so-robust' variety, e.g.
- xfs. If in doubt, use 'safer'. This option defaults to 'safer'.
+* The 'Generate X-Mailer header' option has been renamed 'Add user
+ agent header' and applies to both X-Mailer and X-Newsreader
+ headers.
-* Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
- Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
+* Added hidden preferences, 'address_search_wildcard' and
+ 'folder_search_wildcard', to choose between matching from start of
+ the folder name/address or any part of the name. (Activating these
+ options restores the previous behaviour.)
-* An option has been added to the Receive page of IMAP account
- preferences, "Move deleted mails to trash and expunge immediately".
- This option is on by default to avoid changing the existing
- behaviour. Turning it off prevents automatic expunging.
- Also, 'Tools/Expunge' and 'View/Hide deleted messages' menu items
- have been added to main toolbar.
+* Added hidden preference 'enable_avatars' to control the internal
+ capture/render process, and which allows disabling it by external
+ plugins for example.
-* Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
+* 'Check for new folders' now only updates the folder list, not
+ updating the contents of folders. If needed, it can be followed by
+ 'Check for new messages'
+
+* When using Redirect, the redirecting account's address is used in
+ the SMTP MAIL FROM instead of the original sender's address.
-* In the Compose window a warning dialogue is raised if attachments
- that have been added no longer exist on the filesystem at the time
- of sending.
+* NEW: Libravatar plugin, which displays avatars from
+ https://www.libravatar.org/
-* Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
- added.
+* Added support for an arbitrary number and sources of 'avatars' and
+ images for email senders, and migrated Face and X-Face headers.
-* GnuTLS compatibility mode is now used, this avoids problems with
- servers that don't comply 100% with the spec, but still exist.
+* Avatars are now included when printing mails.
-* tools/csv2addressbook.pl
- thunderbird import for version 2.0.0.21 has been added.
+* The GPG keyring can now be used as the source for address auto-
+ completion.
-* Added Indonesian, Japanese, Portuguese, and Slovakian translations.
+* The vCalendar and RSSyl plugins now have an option to disable SSL
+ certificate verification (and check them by default).
+
+* The ClamAV plugin now pops up an error message only once instead of
+ repeatedly
+
+* Updated the man page and the manual.
+
+* Updated Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech, Dutch,
+ Finnish, French, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Lithuanian, Slovak,
+ Spanish, and Swedish translations.
+
+* Added Esperanto translation.
-* Updated Bulgarian, Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Finnish, French,
- German, Hungarian, Italian, Russian, and Spanish translations.
