We've been through a long development trajectory -which has resulted in this version. The big plusses of 1.4 over the -previous 1.2.x series are enhanced stability, better compatibility -with a wide range of mail/websystems, more features and less bugs. -See the Major Updates section of this file for more. - - -A note on PHP 4.3.x -=================== +This is the first release of our new 1.5.x-series, which is a +DEVELOPMENT release. -While the developers realize that PHP 4.3.x is the "latest and greatest" -version of PHP to be available, SquirrelMail has not been extensively -tested with it. We currently believe that SquirrelMail should work on -PHP 4.3.x but we lack the experience with this new version to be -absolutely sure. If you want to be safe, or experience problems, you may -want to downgrade to PHP 4.2.x. +See the Major Updates section of this file for more. Major updates ============== -The 1.4.0 series (as a result of 1.3 developent 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; SquirrelMail - is now a very scalable webmail solution. -* Support for a wider range of authentication mechanisms. -* Lots of bugfixes, some new features 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. Plugin authors -will need some time to adapt their plugins, so quite a few plugins -might not work. - -So if you have ANY problem at all, first try turning off all plugins. -If one plugin seems to be the culprit, contact the author to see if -a 1.4.x version is underway. - +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.
