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.
+New in this release:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* 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.
-Notes for this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* Auto-configuration of account email servers, based on SRV records,
+ is now possible. (GLib >= 2.22 is required.)
-* 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.
+* Added a preference to avoid automatically drafting emails that are
+ to be sent encrypted, (Configuration/Preferences/Compose/Writing).
-New in this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* 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.
+
+* 'Reply to all' now excludes your own address.
+
+* The 'Generate X-Mailer header' option has been renamed 'Add user
+ agent header' and applies to both X-Mailer and X-Newsreader
+ headers.
+
+* 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.)
+
+* Added hidden preference 'enable_avatars' to control the internal
+ capture/render process, and which allows disabling it by external
+ plugins for example.
+
+* '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.
+
+* NEW: Libravatar plugin, which displays avatars from
+ https://www.libravatar.org/
+
+* Added support for an arbitrary number and sources of 'avatars' and
+ images for email senders, and migrated Face and X-Face headers.
+
+* Avatars are now included when printing mails.
+
+* The GPG keyring can now be used as the source for address auto-
+ completion.
+
+* 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.
