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:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Non-blocking NNTP has been implemented. NNTP support is now provided
- by and depends upon libetpan
-
-GnuTLS support has been implemented as an alternative to OpenSSL.
- [./configure --enable-gnutls]
+* 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.
-A run-time alternative configuration directory switch has been added,
- [claws-mail --alternate-config-dir DIR]
+* Auto-configuration of account email servers, based on SRV records,
+ is now possible. (GLib >= 2.22 is required.)
-Tags: Added tag alphabetical sorting and unified the dialogues.
+* Added a preference to avoid automatically drafting emails that are
+ to be sent encrypted, (Configuration/Preferences/Compose/Writing).
-Edit accounts dialogue: The 'default account' (D) column has been
- removed, instead the default account is indicated by use of
- bold text.
+* Messages saved as Drafts are now saved as New, highlighting the
+ Drafts folder, in order to draw the attention to unfinished mails
+ there.
-Templates: Added ability to attach files using |attach{filename}.
- Templates options are now presented in a tabbed layout.
+* It is now possible to add a 'Replace signature' button to the
+ Compose window toolbar.
-Address Book: Added duplicate finder, '/Tools/Find duplicates'.
- It is now possible to set an image for each contact. Pictures
- from a contact's Face or X-Face will be automatically set
- when available. The contact's image will be automatically
- displayed in the message view or header pane if the message
- has no Face or X-Face header.
+* Quotation wrapping and undo/redo in the Compose window has been
+ improved.
-'/View/Character encoding' submenus are now grouped together
+* 'Reply to all' now excludes your own address.
-GTK+ built-in print support is now used if GTK+ >= 2.10 is available.
- libgnomeprint will never be used if GTK+ >= 2.10 is available.
+* The 'Generate X-Mailer header' option has been renamed 'Add user
+ agent header' and applies to both X-Mailer and X-Newsreader
+ headers.
-Reinstated 'Generate Message-ID' option as an Account preference. It
- is hidden on IMAP accounts, because Message-IDs are needed on
- servers that don't implement the UIDPLUS extension.
+* 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.)
-Toolbar preferences: Improved dialogue.
+* Added hidden preference 'enable_avatars' to control the internal
+ capture/render process, and which allows disabling it by external
+ plugins for example.
-Compose window: the number of attachments is now shown in the tab's
- title.
+* '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.
-Attachments: When opening attachments with 'Open' or 'Open with...'
- the temporary files are now saved as read-only. A hidden
- preference has been added, 'save_parts_readwrite', which
- permits the previous behaviour.
+* NEW: Libravatar plugin, which displays avatars from
+ https://www.libravatar.org/
-IMAP: Added a button on the Folder Properties General page to allow
- users to discard local caches.
- Added much better error handling.
- Fetching of cached mails has been heavily optimised.
+* Added support for an arbitrary number and sources of 'avatars' and
+ images for email senders, and migrated Face and X-Face headers.
-LDAP: Added read-only support for jpegPhoto LDAP field
+* Avatars are now included when printing mails.
-Bcc in commandline URIs has been added.
+* The GPG keyring can now be used as the source for address auto-
+ completion.
-Dillo browser plugin: Address book based whitelisting for loading
- remote images has been added.
+* The vCalendar and RSSyl plugins now have an option to disable SSL
+ certificate verification (and check them by default).
-SpamAssassin plugin: Address book based whitelisting has been added.
+* The ClamAV plugin now pops up an error message only once instead of
+ repeatedly
-MAEMO: Maemo 4.0 (Chinook) build enabled.
+* Updated the man page and the manual.
-MAEMO: Removed some useless tooltips.
+* Updated Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech, Dutch,
+ Finnish, French, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Lithuanian, Slovak,
+ Spanish, and Swedish translations.
-tools/csv2addressbook.pl
- a new script that imports a CSV formatted address book. Becky
- and Thunderbird address book are currently supported.
+* Added Esperanto translation.
-Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French, German,
- Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Simplified Chinese, and Slovak
