    Claws Mail v3.17.2 Released (December 14, 2018)
    News
    Download
    * 3.17.2
    --------

    * Message List: A context menu has been added to the column headers,
    it has two entries: a new option, 'Lock column headers', and 'Set
    displayed colums'.

    * Folder List: A context menu has been added to the column headers,
    containing 'Set displayed columns'.

    * Preferences: The Display/Summaries option page has been split into
    three notebook pages: Folder List, Message List, and Defaults.
    The Message List page contains the new 'Lock column headers'
    option. The Defaults page contains several new options for new
    folders.

    * New Folder Properties: It is now possible to control signing and
    encrypting options on the Compose page. By default it follows the
    Account preferences, but they can be overridden to always sign
    and/or encrypt, or never sign/encrypt.

    * Saving sent messages: The global preference, 'Save sent messages',
    can now be overriden by the Folder Property and Account
    preferences. The global preference no longer needs to be activated
    for the Account Preference, 'Put sent messages in ...' option to
    function. Likewise, the Folder Property, 'Save copy of outgoing
    messages to this folder instead of Sent', no longer relies on the
    global preference being set.

    * SSL/TLS certificates: The SHA-256 fingerprint is now displayed, and
    the MD5 fingerprint has been removed.

    * SSL/TLS certificates list: Status and Expiry columns have been
    added, and expired and invalid certificates are now clearly
    indicated.

    * QuickSearch: body searches are now quicker.

    * QuickSearch: symbols used in Extended searches are now expanded
    in the 'Edit' dialogue.

    * Re-editing: Flags and tags are now preserved when re-editing a
    message.

    * Fancy plugin: The minimum required webkitgtk version is now 1.10.0.

    * PDF Viewer plugin: Ctrl+scroll now zooms.

    * Tools: added cm-break.pl script, which breaks thread references for
    the selected messages; textviewer.pl has been updated and now
    requires perl 5.14.1.

    * The legacy "sylpheed-claws" symlink is no longer installed in the
    bindir.

    * New translation: Portuguese.

    * Updated translations: Brazilian Portuguese, Catalan, Czech, Danish,
    Dutch, French, German, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish.

    * bug fixes:
    o bug 3418, 'Building on a Cross Compiling toolchain doesn't
    work'
    o bug 3889, 'Address and quoted message inconsistent in
    reply'
    o bug 4114, 'autogen.sh: Fix argument quoting'
    o bug 4115, 'autogen: avoid unwarranted re-configure'
    o bug 4120, 'New cert files are created in $HOME instead of
    in ~/.claws-mail/certs'
    o byg 4121, 'Moving a subfolder in another folder erases its
    processing rules' (sic)
    o bug 4132, '"Mark all as (un)read" dialog appears when
    acting on 1 message only'
    o bug 4133, 'trying to read message from an NNTP group (with
    all expired articles.'
    o regression where mail was not being checked at startup when
    it should have been
    o links not being opened in browser when Fancy menu is opened
    with a keyboard
    o show correct address:port in SOCKS5 proxy connection failure
    message
    o prevent unexpected loss of drafted message
    o Quicksearch eating keypresses it didn't handle
    o build on Debian 7
    o build on FreeBSD, sys/wait.h is needed for WEXITSTATUS
    macro
    o Reply from mainwindow menu and toolbar when mainwindow's
    messageview is hidden
    o CID 1438531 Fix wrong test leading to dead code
    o CID 1439871 and validate Unicode char strictly
    o CID 1439996 and remove unnecessary comparison
    o Fancy: left-click on links not opening in browser
    o RSSyl: lost processing rules when renaming folder
    o annoyance where your current reading is disturbed when a
    new msg is filtered into the current folder

    Claws Mail v3.17.3 Released (December 22, 2018)
    News

    New in this release:
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    * Add support for TLS Server Name Indication (SNI). This enables the
    sending of your hostname, if available, to the server so that it
    can select the appropriate certificate for your domain. This is
    useful for servers which host multiple domains on the same IP
    address.
    This is a hidden Account preference, 'use_tls_sni', and is enabled
    by default.

    * SSL/TLS certificate manager: The Delete key will now delete the
    selected certificate.

    * Window sizes are now remembered for the 'Apply tags' and SSL/TLS
    certificate manager windows.

    * bug fixes:
    • bug 3519, 'Links including umlauts are broken'
    • bug 4134, ''Save message to' option not set when it should be'
    • prevent the Tools/SSL/TLS Certificates dialogue from crashing when certificate filenames contain a fingerprint.
    • build on GNU Hurd.
    • various build fixes when building without GnuTLS.

    For further details of the numbered bugs and RFEs listed above
    see https://www.claws-mail.org/bug/[BUG NUMBER]

    I beg your pardon? That version is outdated. The newest Thunderbird version is 60.6.1 published recently.

    Thunderbird 60.X does not work in Windows XP.

    I assumed that Claws Mail can be installed on Windows XP.
    Instead it doesn't work because Glib is now incompatible with XP.

    But I haven't found any system requirements that warn of this.
    :confused:

    Ah, I see! On the other hand, running an email programm with "too many open vulnerabilities" on an OS with "too many open vulnerabilities" (because support for it ended years ago) doesn't probably make a difference anyhow :D

    Nothing to be sorry for SKA. No such thing as a dumb question in my book.:thumb:

    Oh I missed that gpg4win question. I don't think you need to install it though for gpg to work.
