3.0 June 14, 2006
* Updated translations:
* Japanese (Hiroshi Hasebe)
3.0 Release Candidate 2 May 18, 2006
* Evolution changes:
* Evolution crashed when a message without Subject or
From header was received: fixed
* Mail Notification could crash when removing an
Evolution mailbox: fixed
* Updated translations:
* Japanese (Hiroshi Hasebe)
* Czech (Pav Lucistnik)
* Dutch (Marcel J. Zwiebel)
3.0 Release Candidate 1 May 16, 2006
* Core changes:
* An alternate, compact mail summary has been added
* A "Display seen messages" option has been added
* The status icon can now be displayed permanently
* The "Delay between mail checks" option is now
mailbox-specific
* The properties dialog has been reorganized
* The main window has been removed
* The status icon is now activated with a single click
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=148829)
* The GTK+ bugs
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=321886)
which caused occasional crashes have been worked
around
* If the MAIL environment variable is not defined or
invalid, the system mailbox is now looked up in
/var/spool/mail/username and /var/mail/username
(based on a patch from Benoît Rouits)
* Since ~/.gnome2/mail-notification/mailboxes.xml may
contain sensitive information, it is now saved with
permissions set to 0600 (useful for systems where
home directories have lax permissions)
* The "cannot enable immediate notification" error
dialog has been removed
* The --list-features command line option has been
removed (feature information is now displayed in the
output of the --version option)
* The message handling performance has been improved
* If there are no mailboxes on startup, the properties
dialog is now displayed
* The "Start Mail Notification on GNOME login" option
no longer worked with GNOME >= 2.14 and has been
removed: a .desktop file is now installed in the xdg
autostart directory instead
* Since support for non-system sound events has been
removed from GNOME 2.14, the
mail-notification.soundlist file is no longer
installed
* The mail reader setting has been removed; the mail
reader configured in GNOME (Desktop -> Preferences
-> Preferred Applications) will now be used
* The tooltip width is now limited to the screen width
* When coupled with a patched GNOME Panel (as shipped
by FreeBSD and Debian, for instance), the status
icon now supports panel transparency (patch
forwarded by Bernat Tallaferro)
* mbox, Maildir, POP3, IMAP, Evolution and Sylpheed changes:
* Messages are now classified as unseen and seen; seen
messages can be ignored by unchecking the "Display
seen mail" option
* mbox changes:
* Compressed mailboxes (gzip and bzip2) are now
handled transparently, and support immediate
notification
* POP3, IMAP and Gmail changes:
* A regression which allowed mail checks to overlap
has been fixed
* POP3 and IMAP changes:
* If the server advertises the STLS/STARTTLS
capability but replies ERR/BAD when the
STLS/STARTTLS command is issued, Mail Notification
now logs out instead of proceeding
* If multiple mailboxes have the same type, hostname,
port, connection type and username, Mail
Notification will now detect that the mailboxes
share the same account and will only prompt for the
password once per session (when the password is not
entered in the properties dialog, that is)
* POP3 changes:
* Non-UTF-8 server responses are now accepted
* IMAP changes:
* Non-ASCII server responses are now accepted (these
responses violate RFC 3501, but we follow the RFC
793 robustness principle "be liberal in what you
accept"); fixes connection problems with
internationalized Exchange servers, which violate
RFC 3501 by sending non-ASCII characters in their
greeting message
* Empty continuation responses are now allowed (fixes
authentication with some SASL mechanisms)
* Play nice with uncompliant servers by using
BODY.PEEK rather than BODY, so that they do not set
the \Seen flag (patch from Jacob Berkman)
* The IDLE mode is now cycled every 29 minutes, as
advised by RFC 2177
* Evolution changes:
* Support for the Evolution 2.4 and 2.6 branches has
been added; untested support for the Evolution
2.7/2.8 branch has been added; the Evolution source
tree is no longer needed for Evolution >= 2.4
* Sylpheed changes:
* With the help of a Sylpheed patch, Mail Notification
can now reliably avoid race conditions which could
occur when Sylpheed was running (see the
--enable-sylpheed-locking discussion in the INSTALL
file)
* Updated translations:
* French
* New translations:
* Czech (Pav Lucistnik)
* Brazilian Portuguese (Claudio André)
* Dutch (Marcel J. Zwiebel)
* Japanese (Hiroshi Hasebe)
2.0 August 9, 2005
* Core changes:
* Evolution support has been added
* Mailboxes can now be assigned a custom name
* For greater flexibility, mailboxes configuration is
now stored in ~/.gnome2/mail-notification/mailboxes.xml
(previously, it was stored in the GConf database)
* The mailbox list widget has been redesigned
* The mailbox properties dialog has been redesigned
* Copying a mailbox to the clipboard does not make it
available to Nautilus anymore: that behaviour was
confusing and useless. However, pasting files copied
from Nautilus still works.
* If a mailbox requires authentication and the
necessary credentials are not provided in the
mailbox properties dialog, Mail Notification now
lets GNOME prompt the user for the credentials
* A test popup can now be displayed from the Mail
Summary Popup properties tab
* The --report command line option has been removed
* The Mail Notification item is now also listed in the
GNOME >= 2.10 Preferences menu
* The welcome dialog has been removed
* A few icons have been modified
* The third-party libegg code has been updated
* Now requires GTK+ version 2.6.0 or superior
* Minor fixes and cleanups
* mbox, MH, Maildir and Sylpheed changes:
* Immediate notification did not work properly with
fast kernel notifiers (kqueue, inotify, dnotify,
...): fixed
* Unseekable files are now supported
* Mailbox type changes are now detected and handled
(previously, Mail Notification had to be restarted
if a mailbox changed type)
* The location of the system mailbox is now resolved
at runtime rather than when the mailbox is added
(eases sharing the Mail Notification settings across
multiple computers)
* mbox changes:
* When immediate notification is not available, the
mailbox is now also checked when its size or ctime
changes (previously, it was only checked if its
mtime had changed)
* Sylpheed changes:
* Mail Notification now tries to avoid race conditions
which may occur while Sylpheed is being used
* Mark file errors are not ignored anymore
* A memory leak has been fixed
* POP3, IMAP and Gmail changes:
* The username can now also be left out, and will be
prompted when needed
* POP3 and IMAP changes:
* Non-UTF-8 characters are now escaped from
uncompliant server responses before being displayed
in the user interface
* If the system resolver is not reentrant,
getaddrinfo()/getnameinfo() calls are now serialized
* The Cyrus SASL library is now initialized only once,
since multiple sasl_client_init()/sasl_done()
invocations may cause problems (another benefit is
that it allows the SASL library to use the POP3
initial client response feature, which saves a
roundtrip during the SASL authentication exchange)
* When the authentication mechanism option is set to
"autodetect", Mail Notification will now try to
authenticate using each server-supported SASL
mechanism
* Mail Notification was incorrectly disallowing empty
SASL server challenges, although they are legit:
fixed
* POP3 changes:
* The TOP optional command is now supported. This
solves some issues with POP3 servers (for instance,
pop.gmail.com) which incorrectly archive mails that
have been accessed using the RETR command.
* Initial SASL client responses are now handled
properly (passed as an argument to the AUTH command
rather than in the SASL authentication exchange)
* IMAP changes:
* If, while idling, the server abruptly drops the
connection, Mail Notification now reconnects rather
than considering it an error
* When idling, Mail Notification now only wakes up if
it receives a response indicating that the mailbox
might have changed
* By default, Mail Notification now avoids using the
IDLE extension if the remote server software is
known to have a broken IDLE implementation
* UTF-8 mailbox names are now converted to modified
UTF-7, as required by RFC 3501
* Gmail changes:
* Functionality has been restored after the Gmail web
site was modified; to prevent future disruptions and
simplify the source code, the Gmail Atom feed
(https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom) is now used
* Now works even if the Gmail account language is not
set to English
* libsoup and ICU are no longer required
* Updated translations:
* French
* Serbian (Filip Miletic)
* German (Hendrik Brandt, Jens Seidel)
1.1 March 6, 2005

* Polish (Tomasz Sarota-Raczek)
