All about this release
======================
This version is fourth official NaSMail release. This release includes improved
mailbox listing code, adds hooks to provide better mailbox listing controls for
plugins and fixes various small issues. See ChangeLog for a more details.
Locales / Translations / Charsets
=================================
The translations for NaSMail are not part of the main package and must be
downloaded separately. You can find these packages through our homepage. They
also contain instructions on how to install.
Lightweight version of extra decoding library is included in core package. You
don't have to install extra decoding library scripts, if your PHP installation
supports recode or iconv.
Security Issues
===============
This NaSMail version does not include any security fixes.
Major updates
=============
* Improved folder listing code.
* UTF7-IMAP mailbox names are read and written correctly in setups without
mbstring support.
* Code cleanup.
A note on plugins
=================
There have been major plugin architecture updates in NaSMail. Plugins designed
for SquirrelMail 1.4.8 might work in NaSMail with some quirks. If plugins use
functions introduced in SquirrelMail 1.4.10 or depend on quirks of 1.4.10
session functions, they will be broken. Plugins must be updated to use new
internationalization code. If plugins use older option hooks, they must be
updated to use option widgets.
If plugins use HTTP Location: redirects, JavaScript or need user password, they
might need updates to work in NaSMail 1.2+ cookieless mode correctly. If
interface is used in standard mode with cookies, outdated plugins should work
without problems.
You can find more information about compatibility between NaSMail and plugin
versions at http://www.nasmail.org/docs/compatibility.shtml.
About Release Name
==================
YAG is stands for Yet Another Gopher.
Reporting NaSMail bugs
======================
We constantly aim to make NaSMail even better. So we need you to submit any bug
you come across! Also, please mention that the bug is in this release, and list
your IMAP server and webserver details.
https://gna.org/bugs/?group=nasmail
Thanks for your cooperation with this. That helps us to make sure nothing slips
through the cracks. Also, it would help if people would check existing tracker
items for a bug before reporting it again. This would help to eliminate
duplicate reports, and increase the time we can spend CODING by DECREASING the
time we spend sorting through bug reports. And remember, check not only OPEN
bug reports, but also closed ones as a bug that you report MAY have been fixed
in development code already.
Any questions about installing or using NaSMail can be directed to our user
support list:
