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. - - Home Page: http://www.squirrelmail.org/ - Download: http://www.squirrelmail.org/download.php - ScreenShots: http://www.squirrelmail.org/screenshots.php - - -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!!!)
