-All about this Release!!!
-=========================
-
-The 1.2 series is continuing to get better and more featured. The
-latest added features are:
-
- * MDN Support - You can send and request delivery & read receipts.
- * Enhanced Search functions - search multiple folders at once,
- search history
- * And another pileful of fixes and omtimisations
-
-See the Changelog file for details.
-
-Being one of the most popular webmail clients, the developers of
-SquirrelMail feel a huge desire and responsibility to continue push
-the envelope and make SquirrelMail the best it can possibly be. You
-will not be disappointed with this release, as it is by far the most
-feature rich, and yet it is still the same sleek and unbloated and
-cuddly webmail application that we have all grown to love. Here is
-an incomplete list of new features and enhancements since the last
-stable release.
-
- * Collapsible Folders - The folder list can be collapsed at any
- parent folder. This makes folder lists with large
- hierarchical structures much easier to manage and navigate.
- * The Paginator! - This enables quick access to any page in the
- message list by simply choosing the page number to view
- rather than tediously clicking "next" 50 times.
- * Hundreds of UI tweaks - The user interface has been given a
- face-lift. The HTML has been largely overhauled, and while
- it still has the same general feel, it has been made more
- intuitive.
- * Drafts - It is now possible to compose a message and save it to
- be sent at a later date with the drafts option.
- * New Options Page - The options page has been completely
- rewritten for several reasons, the main of which was to
- allow seamless integration of plugin options and to
- provide uniformity throughout the entire section.
- * Multiple Identities - It is now possible to create different
- identities (home, work, school) that can be chosen upon
- sending. Each identity can have its own email address,
- full name, and signature.
- * Reply Citations - Different types of citations are now possible
- when replying to messages.
- * Better Attachment Handling - The plugin, attachment_common, has
- been fully integrated into the core of SquirrelMail. This
- allows inline viewing of several different types of
- attachments.
- * Integration of Several Plugins - The following plugins have been
- put directly into the core. As a result, be sure not to
- install these as plugins, as the result may be (at best)
- unpredictable: attachment_common, paginator, priority,
- printer_friendly, sqclock, xmailer.
- * Improved support for newer versions of PHP. Note that you may
- have trouble if you are running PHP version 4.0.100
- (commonly distributed with Debian 3.0).
- * Ability to mark messages as read and unread from the message listing.
- * Alternating Colors - The message list now alternates row colors
- by default. This presents a much cleaner and easier to
- read interface to the user.
-
-Aside from these obvious front end features, there are hundreds of
-bugs that have been fixed, and much of the code has been optimized
-and/or rewritten. This stable release is far superior in all
-aspects to all previous versions of SquirrelMail.

-Reporting my favorite SquirrelMail 1.2 bug
-==========================================
+ * All about this Release!
+ * Major updates
+ * A note on plugins
+ * Reporting my favorite SquirrelMail 1.5 bug
+
+All about this Release!
+=======================
+
+This is the first release of our new 1.5.x-series, which is a
+DEVELOPMENT release.
+
+See the Major Updates section of this file for more.
+
+
+Major updates
+==============
+
+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.
-Of course, in the words of Linus Torvalds, this release is officially
-certified to be Bug-Free (tm).
+Reporting my favorite SquirrelMail 1.4 bug
+==========================================
-However, if for some reason some bugs manage to find their way to the
-surface, please report them at once (after all, they ARE uncertified
-bugs!!!) The PROPER place to report these bugs is the SquirrelMail Bug
-Tracker.
+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.

-Thank you for your cooperation in that issue. That helps us to make
-sure that nothing slips through the cracks. Also, it would help if
+Thanks for your cooperation with this. That helps us to make
+sure nothing slips through the cracks. Also, it would help if
people would check existing tracker items for a bug before reporting
it again. This would help to eliminate duplicate reports, and
increase the time we can spend CODING by DECREASING the time we
bug reports, but also closed ones as a bug that you report MAY have
been fixed in CVS already.
+If you want to join us in coding SquirrelMail, or have other
+things to share with the developers, join the development mailinglist:
-Important Note about PHP 4.1.0
-==============================
-
-Finally, we have managed to make *this* SquirrelMail release cooperate
-nicely with the new PHP 4.1 release. As opposed to 1.2.4 and before,
-which was less good friends with PHP 4.1.
-
-So: "Yes! It works"

-About our Release Aliases - by Wouter Teepe
-=========================
-
-Back with the release of 1.2.0, back when Christmas was recent, and

-SquirrelMail community into "Teams", all doing their own thing.
-
-Finally, the teams have really kicked off. :-)
-
-And, I would like to welcome all our new community members, being both
-YOU, the eventful users of SquirrelMail, as well as Simon Dick, Jason
-Munro, Pete Palmer and Chris Hills who have became team leads, as
-well as Marc Groot Koerkamp and Thijs Kinkhorst (both just by incident
-inhabitants of the same country as me :-)) who have recently joined
-SquirrelMail and have made worthy contributions.
