Version 2.2 (2021-02-14):
=========================
* Massive robustness improvements. Especially long running IMAP IDLE 
  connections do survive peer resets and system hibernation now
* New default connectivity test based on glib NetworkMonitor 
  (likely to improve VPN issues as well)
* Configuration UI hints for Gmail
* Updated translations

NOTES FOR PACKAGERS:
The networkmanager dependency may be removed 
since Mailnag now uses the NetworkMonitor API (of glib),
which in turn optionally depends on networkmanager.


Version 2.1 (2020-12-30):
=========================
* Mark-as-read also marks e-mails read on the server 
  if supported (thanks Andreas Angerer!)
* libnotify plugin: close associated notification when the e-mail 
  has been read (single-notification-mode only,
  thanks Dan Christensen!)
* libnofify plugin: correctly identify 
  desktop environment (thanks Denis Anuschewski!)
* Misc other fixes and improvements
* Updated translations


Version 2.0 (2020-03-28):
===========================
* Ported to Python3
* Migrated from Gnome keyring to libsecret
* Moved functionality of dbus plugin to mailnag core

* Added STARTTLS support for pop3 accounts
* Cosmetic UI fixes
* Misc other fixes and improvements

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR PACKAGERS:
Please note that mailnag now requires python >= 3.5 and 
that the GNOME-Keyring dependency has been replaced by libsecret.


Version 1.3 (2019-03-24):
===========================
* UI modernization including headerbars
* Ported to GtkApplication
* Support for mbox and maildir backends (thanks tikank!)

* Improved folder parsing in config UI
* Misc other fixes and improvements

Version 1.2.1 (2016-05-28):
===========================
* Improved GNOME-Software integration
* Fixed missing plugin config dialogs in Ubuntu 14.04 
* Fixed IMAP idle folders issue

* Misc other fixes and improvements
* Updated translations


Version 1.2.0 (2016-03-23):
===========================
* Added support for notification settings in GNOME-Control-Center
* Improved account dialog featuring a new IMAP folder chooser
* libnotify plugin: added new 'Short Summary' notification mode
  (new default notification mode; recommended for GNOME 3)
* userscript plugin: accountnames are now passed to the specified userscript
* Non-SSL accounts are now utilizing STARTTLS if available (thanks todi!)
* Mailnag now logs a warning if an unencrypted connection is detected
* Acountnames are now exported via the DBUS-API
* The config window is resizable now
* Misc other fixes and improvements
* Updated translations / removed badly maintained translations

NOTES: 
If you're using the userscript plugin, please note that Mailnag now passes 
(accountname, sender, subject) sequences to the script as opposed to (sender, subject)
sequences in previous releases.


Version 1.1.0 (2015-02-08):
===========================
* GNOME Online Accounts integration 
  (via a plugin -> https://github.com/pulb/mailnag-goa-plugin)
* Added support for platform-specific credential (login password) backends
  (Configurable in the config file.
  Supported options are currently "AUTO", "GNOME" and "NONE".)
* The GNOME-Keyring dependency is optional now
* Improved connectivity tests
  (Configurable in the config file.
  Supported options are "AUTO", "NETWORKMANAGER" and "PING".)
* Shorter notification strings
* Added appdata file for GNOME Software app
* Removed bash wrapper scripts
* Misc other fixes and improvements
* Updated translations

IMPORTANT NOTES FOR PACKAGERS:
Please note that GNOME-Keyring and Networkmanager 
are now optional dependencies and the httplib2 dependency 
is not required anymore.


Version 1.0.0 (2014-06-28):
===========================
* Mailnag is desktop-independent now (was GNOME3-only)
* Added plugin system to allow easy extensibility
* Cut down the core daemon functionality to mail checking only and 
  moved everything else to plugins
* Released GNOME 3/Ubuntu Unity extension/plugin for a tighter desktop integration

* Fixes for various major and minor bugs
* New icon by Reda Lazri

The fileformat of the config file has changed. 
It's highly recommended to rename/backup your 
current config file (~/.config/mailnag/mailnag.cfg).


Version 0.5.2 (2013-01-06):
===========================
* Fixed path of the autstart file
* Minor other fixes


Version 0.5.1 (2012-12-23):
===========================
* Restored translated strings (previously available in mailnag <= 0.4.3)
  that were removed due to a bug in the gen_po_template script
* Fixed a race condition that can lead to mutliple mailnag instances


Version 0.5.0 (2012-12-05):
===========================
* Bugfix: (really) don't crash on session start 
  if the notification DBUS interface isn't available yet
* Migrated to the new keyring gir binding
* Removed evolution account import (not working anymore)
* Minor other fixes
* Updated translations

IMPORTANT NOTES:
  - Packagers should incorporate the new dependecy list.
  - The new keyring binding stores credentials in ~/.local/share/keyrings 
    instead of in ~/.gnome2/keyrings. So you probably have to fire up 
    mailnag_config and re-enter your mail account password(s).


Version 0.4.4 (2012-10-20):
===========================
* Bugfix: don't crash on session start 
  if the notification DBUS interface isn't available yet
* Bugfix: fix notification sound playback in GNOME 3.6
* Removed messagetray-label configuration since gnome-shell 
  no longer shows labels in the messagetray

===========================
* Added installation script (setup.py)
* IMAP related bugfixes
* Updated translations
