-=========================
+All about this Release!
+=======================
-This is the second and hopefully last Release Candidate (RC) for the
-1.4.x stable series. Please note that this release is not yet labeled
-STABLE officially.
+This is the first release of our new 1.5.x-series, which is a
+DEVELOPMENT release.
-It is labeled RC 2a because RC 2 was released but pulled back soon
-after because a serious bug was found that needed to be fixed. Thanks
-to Jason Munro for discovering this bug.
-
-However, we've been running this on a number of systems and a variety
-of configs and we think it's worthy of the "stable"-title. Before we
-can call it stable we want to test it on as many systems as possible
-to iron out the last issues.
-
-In response to RC1, quite some issues were reported AND fixed! We now
-hope that SquirrelMail is really ready to be called STABLE. We need you
-to verify that this is true!
-
-So download it! Install it, and try to break it! We are hungry for any
-bug report you send. Even the smallest issue deserves to be fixed.
+See the Major Updates section of this file for more.
Major updates
==============
-The 1.4.0 series (as a result of 1.3 devel series) brings:
-
-* A complete rewrite of the way we send mail (Deliver-class),
- and of the way we parse mail (MIME-bodystructure parsing).
- This makes SquirrelMail more reliable and more efficient
- at the same time!
-* Support for IMAP UID which makes SquirrelMail more reliable.
-* Optimizations to code and the number of IMAP calls.
-* Support for a wider range of authentication mechanisms.
-* Lots of bugfixes and a couple of UI-tweaks.
-
-
-A note on plugins
-=================
-
-There have been major plugin architecture improvements. Lots of plugins
-have not yet been adapted to this. Plugins which are distributed with
-this release (eg. in the same .tar.gz file) should work. Plugins not
-distributed with this plugin most probably WILL NOT WORK.
-
-So if you have ANY problem at all, first try turning off all plugins.
-
-
-A note on your configuration
-============================
-
-For a whole bunch of reasons, it is MANDATORY that you run conf.pl
-(and then save your configuration) from the config/ directory before
-using this release.
-
-If you have problems with UID support, please do these 2 things:
-
-1) For our comfort and the prosperity of SquirrelMail, send a bug
- report with this information:
- * IMAP server type + version
- * Whether you use server-side sorting
- * Whether you use thread sorting
- * The value of "sort" (as in conf.pl)
- Bugs can be submitted at: http://www.squirrelmail.org/bugs
-
-2) For your own pleasure and comfort:
- Turn off UID support in conf.pl, so you can continue to use 1.4.0
- while the developers look at your report.
-
+1.5.0 includes the integration of the delete_move_next plugin,
+as well as a new "save replies to the same folder as the original"
+option.

+We constantly aim to make SquirrelMail even better. So we need you to
+submit any bug you come across! Also, please mention that the bug is
+in this 1.5.0 release, and list your IMAP server and webserver details.
