CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org
-
+
Claws Mail is a GTK+ based, user-friendly, lightweight, and fast
email client.
-Notes for this release:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-libetpan 0.49 is now required for IMAP support
-
New in this release:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-* Added "From, To or Subject" to the QuickSearch types.
-
-* Added handling of the 'a' key to loop through a mail's MIME parts.
-
-* In the Compose window "Add to address book" has been added to the
- context menu of the sender and recipient fields.
-
-* Implemented a proper References filtering condition.
+* 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.
-* Added the possibility to cancel receiving in IMAP accounts.
+* Auto-configuration of account email servers, based on SRV records,
+ is now possible. (GLib >= 2.22 is required.)
-* Made offline synchronisation faster.
+* Added a preference to avoid automatically drafting emails that are
+ to be sent encrypted, (Configuration/Preferences/Compose/Writing).
-* Added an alternate way to fetch flags on IMAP, which improves
- performance with some servers, (like Exchange).
- See "Bandwidth-efficient mode" in IMAP accounts' Receive
- preferences.
+* Messages saved as Drafts are now saved as New, highlighting the
+ Drafts folder, in order to draw the attention to unfinished mails
+ there.
-* Allow manual sorting of Templates.
+* It is now possible to add a 'Replace signature' button to the
+ Compose window toolbar.
-* Templates improvements: easier syntax, add some useful variables.
+* Quotation wrapping and undo/redo in the Compose window has been
+ improved.
-* Implemented per-account and per-folder compose/reply/forward
- Templates.
+* 'Reply to all' now excludes your own address.
-* Added a QuickSearch option to automatically run a search selected
- from the history.
+* The 'Generate X-Mailer header' option has been renamed 'Add user
+ agent header' and applies to both X-Mailer and X-Newsreader
+ headers.
-* Made the Summaries Preferemces page "when entering a folder..."
- options fully customisable.
+* 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 an "Open last opened folder at startup" option to the
- Summaries page in the Prerferences.
+* Added hidden preference 'enable_avatars' to control the internal
+ capture/render process, and which allows disabling it by external
+ plugins for example.
-* Changed the Preference "Only mark as read when opened in new
- window" on the Summaries page to "Only mark as read when opened
- in new window, or replied to".
+* '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.
-* Allow disabling mail filtering plugins on a per-account
- basis.
+* NEW: Libravatar plugin, which displays avatars from
+ https://www.libravatar.org/
-* Added an option to the Bogofilter and SpamAssassin plugins to
- enable marking saved spam as Read.
+* Added support for an arbitrary number and sources of 'avatars' and
+ images for email senders, and migrated Face and X-Face headers.
-* Added a warning about encryption limits, which can be disabled.
+* Avatars are now included when printing mails.
-* Removed the "Download all" preference from POP3 accounts; it
- was useless and confusing.
+* The GPG keyring can now be used as the source for address auto-
+ completion.
-* Re-organized some Preferences page.
+* The vCalendar and RSSyl plugins now have an option to disable SSL
+ certificate verification (and check them by default).
-* Replaced the tabbed layout in Account Preferences with pages.
+* The ClamAV plugin now pops up an error message only once instead of
+ repeatedly
-* Renamed 'Protocol Log' to 'Network Log'
+* Updated the man page and the manual.
