CLAWS MAIL RELEASE NOTES
http://www.claws-mail.org/maemo/

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]

A run-time alternative configuration directory switch has been added,
[claws-mail --alternate-config-dir DIR]

Tags: Added tag alphabetical sorting and unified the dialogues.

Edit accounts dialogue: The 'default account' (D) column has been
removed, instead the default account is indicated by use of
bold text.

Templates: Added ability to attach files using |attach{filename}.
Templates options are now presented in a tabbed layout.

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.

'/View/Character encoding' submenus are now grouped together

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.

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.

Toolbar preferences: Improved dialogue.

Compose window: the number of attachments is now shown in the tab's
title.

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.

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.

LDAP: Added read-only support for jpegPhoto LDAP field

Bcc in commandline URIs has been added.

Dillo browser plugin: Address book based whitelisting for loading
remote images has been added.

SpamAssassin plugin: Address book based whitelisting has been added.

MAEMO: Maemo 4.0 (Chinook) build enabled.

MAEMO: Removed some useless tooltips.

tools/csv2addressbook.pl
a new script that imports a CSV formatted address book. Becky
and Thunderbird address book are currently supported.

Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Finnish, French, German,
Hungarian, Italian, Polish, Simplified Chinese, and Slovak

Excellent... setting up my accounts right now. Thanks for updating it for Chinook!

Thanks for the great email app. However I'm having problems installing this on ITOS2008. Could you look into it?

edit: solved: http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...5&postcount=98

You should propably fix the instructions at http://www.claws-mail.org/maemo/

Could you set dependency for libxau or libxau6 instead of libxau0?
libxau0 isn't in maemo repository (for Chinook): http://repository.maemo.org/pool/chi...e/libx/libxau/

Other than 2.0, it refuses to talk to my server - does not even make a login attempt, but states "LOGIN failed" and asks for another password after a very minimal session:

STARTTLS AUTH=CRAM-MD5 AUTH=DIGEST-MD5 SASL-IR LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED X-NETSCAPE..1 OK Completed..

The claws log claims it tries to authenticate with CRAM-MD5 and fails immediately, but the server does not even get that attempt. Secure auth broken?

Sevo

Still works like a charm with IMAP gmail on my n800. Thanks for the update. Still struggling with the address book opening with every press of the hardware full screen key. Any thoughts?

Ok, confirmed: CRAM-MD5 does not work on my system - it immediately returns "LOGIN failed" without ever attempting a login over the net.

DIGEST-MD5 works as expected, so I can temporarily and with a more theoretical than practical security impact work around it, as far as my own server is concerned, by disabling CRAM - but I doubt that my employer and T-Online will be as forthcoming.

Sevo

Or not - it falls back to PLAIN then.

Sevo

I'm seeing the same here on our IMAP system. Time to roll-back...

Hi,

Has anyone got a deb of claws 3.0.1 for mistral or gregale? I need to revert until this SSL is fixed.

Cheers,

Alistair
