  1. Changes of the Claws Mail GTK2 branch
  2. * 3.7.2
  3. -------
  4. * Default Cc, Bcc and Reply-To options have been added to Folder
  5. Properties.
  6. * MIME parts that lack an end boundary are now handled, (even though
  7. they're INVALID!).
  8. * A 'Metadata handling' option has been added to the Miscellaneous
  9. options page. The options are 'safer' or 'faster'. 'faster' is
  10. Claws' original behaviour. 'safer' prevents data loss on system
  11. crashes where the filesystem is of a 'not-so-robust' variety, e.g.
  12. xfs. If in doubt, use 'safer'. This option defaults to 'safer'.
  13. * Face and X-Face previews have been added to the Custom Header
  14. Configuration dialogue in Account preferences.
  15. * An option has been added to the Receive page of IMAP account
  16. preferences, "Move deleted mails to trash and expunge immediately".
  17. This option is on by default to avoid changing the existing
  18. behaviour. Turning it off prevents automatic expunging.
  19. Also, 'Tools/Expunge' and 'View/Hide deleted messages' menu items
  20. have been added to main toolbar.
  21. * Support for clickable gopher:// links has been added.
  22. * In the Compose window a warning dialogue is raised if attachments
  23. that have been added no longer exist on the filesystem at the time
  24. of sending.
  25. * Buttons to clear header lines in the Compose window have been
  26. added.
  27. * GnuTLS compatibility mode is now used, this avoids problems with
  28. servers that don't comply 100% with the spec, but still exist.
  29. * tools/csv2addressbook.pl
  30. thunderbird import for version 2.0.0.21 has been added.
  31. * 3.7.1
  32. -------
  33. * Spell Checking has been added to the Subject in the Compose window.
  34. * The 'Quotation characters' option has been moved from the Compose/
  35. Writing page of the preferences to the /Message View/Text Options
  36. page.
  37. * When replying to signed and/or encrypted mail and the preference to
  38. sign and/or encrypt is set, the original mail's privacy system is
  39. automatically used, if available.
  40. * If a text/calendar attachment is present in a message it is
  41. automatcally selected if a suitable plugin (i.e. vCalendar) is
  42. available.
  43. * /Tools/List URLs now shows both the link title and URI if possible.
  44. * A URI appearing in the statusbar is now only trimmed if necessary.
  45. * When using /Tools/Create filter|procesing rule/Automatically
  46. the List-Id header is preferred to X-* headers.
  47. * The manual has been updated.
  48. * 3.7.0
  49. -------
  50. * Expanding/Collapsing of threads is now approximately 95% faster.
  51. * Cache reading is now approximately 10% faster.
  52. * The shortcut key settings of the main window and the message list
  53. context menus are now connected.
  54. * The preferences on the 'Other' page have now been moved to
  55. Other/Miscellaneous. The parent pages are now unselectable and the
  56. first page is automatically selected on opening the preferences.
  57. * In the Compose window, on the Others tab, the 'Save message to'

  605. CM can be done using the tray icon menu or the /File menu.
