Changes from NEWS:
* 3.13.0
--------
* Preferences are now saved to disk immediately on pressing OK or
Apply.
* New preferences have been added for default sorting of the message
lists. They are found in the 'Message list' frame of the Display/
Summaries page of the general preferences. These options only apply
to newly created folders.
* The menu item 'Delete thread' has been moved to the Message menu.
Previously clicking it would not delete the thread, but just move
it to the Trash folder. Now it will delete the thread.
An additional menu item has been added, 'Move thread to trash',
which implements the original behaviour.
* Compose window: By default it is no longer possible to add user-
defined headers, with only those pre-defined in the drop down menus
being possible. To restore the old behaviour, a new hidden
preference has been added: 'type_any_header', setting this to 1
restores the old behaviour.
* Automatic account selection is now also applied when you reply to
one of your own messages, e.g. from the Sent folder.
* Folder list: The Left and Right cursor keys now collapse or expand
the currently selected folder tree item. The Left cursor key also
moves the selection to parent folder, if current folder is within
a collapsed tree.
* Folder list: The Home and End keys now move the selection to the
first folder and last folder in the tree.
* Account Auto-configuration: when errors occur, a more detailed
error message is shown.
* GnuPG plugins: An option has been added to specify the location of
the GnuPG executable.
* GnuPG plugins: A new hidden preference has been added which limits
the number of results returned when using your keyring for address
auto-completion: 'autocompletion_limit'. The default value is 0,
which means there is no limit, any other number will limit the
results to that number.
* Python plugin: Folder has been added to MessageInfo objects.
* The GeoLocation plugin is no longer included.
* The user manual has been updated.
* The man page has been updated.
* Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, British English, Czech,
Dutch, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Norwegian Bokmål,
Slovak, Spanish, Swedish.
* New translations: Italian, Traditional Chinese.

version 3.11.1.
Changlog:
3.11.1:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Use 'gnutls_priority' hidden account preference for POP3 and
STARTTLS connections, in addition to SMTP.
* RSSyl plugin: Enable use of .netrc to store network credentials.
* Remove dependency on intltool.
* Remove appdata.
* Updated translations: Norwegian Bokmål.
* Bug fixes:
o bug 3306, 'HTML tag is not always rendered in error
dialog'
o bug 3308, 'build ignores --localedir'
3.11.0:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* SSLv3 server connections are now disabled by default, in response
to the POODLE vulnerability, see
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-3566.
* Several PGP/Core plugin improvements
Indicate when a key has been revoked or has expired when displaying
signature status. For example,
"Good signature from %s, but the key has expired."
"Good signature from %s, but the key has been revoked."
When displaying the full information, show the Validity, and the
Owner Trust level. Also indicate expired and revoked keys, and
revoked UIDs.
The "Content-Disposition: attachment" flag in PGP/MIME signed
messages has been removed. It was confusing for cetain MUAs.
* A new version of the RSSyl plugin, completely redesigned and
rewritten. Migration from the previous version is automatic,
it has a new storage format in ~/.claws-mail/RSSyl/ (hierarchical
directories instead of flat file format). It uses the expat
library instead of libxml2 for parsing feed data.
* The results of TAB address completion in the Compose window have
improved ordering.
Order of results:
1. Match beginning of name
2. Match beginning of additional names
3. Match complete email address before @
4. Match beginning of email address
5. Compare relative position of match
6. Compare name alphabetically
7. Compare address alphabetically.
* Due to popular demand, use of the Up key in the message body in the
Compose window stops at the top of the message body and does not
continue up to the header fields. This reverts the behaviour
introduced in version 3.10.0.
* In the Compose window, when navigating with the arrow keys,
selecting, and thus modifying, the Account selector is now
prevented.
* In the Compose window, a mnemonic (s) has been added to the Subject
line.

folders and the tree is collapsed.
* When sorting messages by 'thread date', clicking the 'Date' column
header will now toggle between ascending/descending and will not
switch to 'date' sorting.
* A new QuickSearch filter has been added that searches a header's
content only.
H S : messages which contain S in the value of any header.
* A Reply-To field has been added to the main Template configuration.
* The menubar can now be hidden, default hotkey: F12.
* Fancy plugin: A user-controlled stylesheet can now be used.
* Python plugin: Add flag attributes to MessageInfo object.
* Python plugin: Make 'account' property of ComposeWindow read/write.
* Libravatar plugin: a network timeout option has been added.
* appdata has been added for package managers, it must be
specifically enabled, using ./configure --enable-appdata
See http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/appdata/ for further
information.
* The tbird2claws.py script, for converting a Thunderbird mailbox to
a Claws Mail mailbox, now handles sub-directory recursion.

Esperanto, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Lithuanian, Slovak, Spanish,
and Swedish

3.10.0:
* Complete SSL certificate chains are now saved, and if built with

the folder name/address or any part of the name. (Activating these
options restores the previous behaviour.)
* Added hidden preference 'enable_avatars' to control the internal
capture/render process, and which allows disabling it by external
plugins for example.
* '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.
