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:

GnuTLS 2.2 is now a minimum requirement if encrypted connections to
servers are required.

The list displays have been updated to use newer GTK+ functions,
this means that the expanders look different and the optional dotted
lines have been dropped.

A hidden option, 'summary_from_show', which controls the display in
the From column of the Message List: 0 (default): show name,
1: show address, 2: show name + address

The image viewer now uses the EXIF Orientation.

'Generate X-Mailer header' has been added as an Account option.

/View/Message scroll has been added, allowing keyboard shortcuts to
be added and used for message scrolling.

Home and End keys now function in the Message View.

/Message/Print has been added to the Compose window.

Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, French,
Hungarian, Indonesian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Ukrainian.
