-
-* Changes since version 0.3
-
- Shell:
-
- - Added interfaces to display messages and a progress bar when the
- component is busy. (Ettore)
-
- - Changed the shell BonoboUIHandler code to allow placing menu items
- such as "Print" in the right places. (Ettore)
-
- - Added code to check if an existing `~/evolution' directory
- actually has the content we expect and, if not, complain to the
- user. (Dan)
-
- - Fixed some Bonobo-related refcounting problems. (Michael Meeks)
-
- - Removed the GConf dependency. (JP)
-
- - Improved the API for the folder selection dialog. (Ettore)
-
- - Memory leak fixes. (Peter)
-
- Calendar:
-
- The calendar is in the middle of major rewrite. Evolution 0.4.1
- ships with essentially the same calendar component as 0.3 did.
-
- Addressbook:
-
- - More work on the Palm Pilot conduits. (Chris Toshok)
-
- - Fixed some LDAP-related crashes. (Chris Toshok)
-
- - Added support for displaying embedded vCards through a Bonobo
- component. (Chris Lahey)
-
- - Added support for generic fields. (Chris Lahey)
-
- - Fixed the navigation order for the Tab key in the contact editor
- window. (Chris Lahey)
-
- - Fixed some Bonobo-related bugs and crashes. (Chris Lahey, Michael
- Meeks)
-
- - Only display entries that have an email address in the address
- selector dialog. (Chris Lahey)
-
- - Added an utility program to import vCards from Gnomecard. (Chris
- Lahey)
-
- Mailer:
-
- Generic
-
- - Long mailer operations (such as fetching new mail) now run
- asynchronously rather than blocking the UI. This involved
- a major rewrite of much of the Camel and mailer code. (Peter)
-
- - GPG/PGP message decryption support (Nathan Thompson-Amato, Dan)
-
- - Unfinished messages in the composer can be saved to the "Drafts"
- folder and finished later. (Jeff)
-
- - Double-clicking on a message in the message view now opens it in a
- separate window. (Jeff)
-
- - vCards attached to messages now bring up a minicard view with a
- button to add the vCard to the addressbook (Chris Lahey, Dan)
-
- - Inline uuencoded/binhexed "attachment" support (Dan)
-
- - "Mark All Messages Seen" command. (Cody Russell)
-
- Filters / VFolders
-
- - Major filter/vfolder dialog rewrite (Michael Zucchi) VFolders can
- now search any (searchable) folder, not just Inbox.
-
- - Auto-filter/auto-vfolder code (right click on a message in the
- list and pick one of the options at the bottom of the menu to
- create a filter/vfolder rule for similar messages). (Michael)
-
- - You can now set the color of messages in the message list, based
- on filter rules. (Local stores can also now store arbitrary user
- flags, although there is not yet UI code to set/view them.)
- (Michael)
-
- - Added "Save" button to the quicksearch bar to save a search as a
- vfolder. (Michael)
-
- Configuration
-
- - Major mail config dialog rewrite (JP).
-
- - The mailer now remembers your threaded/unthreaded message view
- setting between sessions. (Jeremy Wise).
-
- - Support for multiple identities (JP, Jeff), sources (JP, Peter), and
- IMAP servers (JP, Dan)
-
- Providers
-
- - You can now leave POP mail on the server. (This will [currently]
- only work right with POP servers that support the UIDL command.
- On other servers, it will never download some messages unless you
- never delete mail.)
-
- - There is now an MH-like local store available, and code to convert
- a folder from one type to the other. (Michael)
-
- - The mbox provider now writes out "From " lines that are more
- compatible with other mailers (like Mutt) that are picky about
- their exact format. (Michael)
-
- - The IMAP provider now supports searching (Jeff). Also various
- other speed/efficiency/robustness improvements (Jeff), and support
- for old IMAP4 servers as well as IMAP4rev1 (Jon K Hellan).
