Release notes for the Kolab 2 KDE Client 2.1.0
==============================================
2006-04-06, Bernhard Herzog <bhintevation.de>

Changes since 2.0.6:

Features:
---------

* Improved LDAP resource. including read/write support.
  (Backport from 3.5 branch)

* Support for displaying QUOTA information in the IMAP
kioslave and KMail,
  for both disconnected and online IMAP. Persisted across
restarts.
  (Kolab/issue1080).

* When, during a sync, while looking for new messages to
upload, we
  encounter a message that looks like a ghost messages (no
subject, no
  from, no to) we first invalidate the index of that folder
and then
  check if the ghosts are still there. If so, offer to the
user to delete
  those mails and reset the sync for this folder. Only ask
once per
  session, to not be annoying. (Kolab/issue918)

* Support for adding and removing subresources (folders in
KMail) from
  within the resource view in KOrganizer and KAddressbook.
As a side effect,
  support for adding and removing subresources from scripts,
via DCOP.

* Implement client side subscription for online IMAP and
disconnected IMAP
  accounts. This basically stores a blacklist of
unsubscribed folders
  (since we want new folders to show up, intially) per
account, which is
  persisted to kconfig. This list is used as a filter during
folder
  listing. (Kolab/issue1095)

* Auto-unsubscribing of folders by groupware folder type.
This 
  allows to only see groupware folders in the account that
is set up to
  contain them, while using a separate (online) IMAP account
for mail
  folders. (Kolab/issue1095)

* Add an option to the wizard to create an online account
for the
  non-groupware folders along with a cached IMAP one which
is set to only
  show groupware folders. (Kolab/issue1095)

Bugfixes:
---------

* Fixed crash on adding groupware ressources as kolabwizard
did not do it
  properly (Kolab/issue1201)

* Make sure the translation catalogue is loaded, by making
sure we 
  pass our correct name to the Kontact::Plugin base class. 
  (Kolab/issue1087)

* Make sure that latin1 is selected as a default if we find
no matching
  locale for the fallback codec, and replace "iso
" with "iso-" so we have
  a better chance of finding the locale.

* Finally solve Kolab issue 437 by making sure all defaults
lists match.

* Trying to autodetect the codec for vcards is a bad idea,
so backport
  what we do in newer versions for a while now, rely on them
being utf8.
  (Kolab/Issue1115)

* Make the imported ldap slave work with the newimap
protocol (to avoid
  clashes with the one in kdebase <= 3.2 and hook it in.

* Import the ldap library stuff from kdelibs 3.5, since we
need to support
  kdelibs 3.2 which doesn't have it.

* Conditionally use the stuff in libpimldaptools and the
copied slave, if
  we are compiling against kdelibs 3.2

* (kio_imap4) Quote mailbox name in case it contains spaces.

* Fix replying or printing encapsulated messaages from a
main reader
  window. (Proko2 issue993)

* Don't circumvent the scheduler when handling cancel
messages, because
  otherwise proper schedulingID conversion does not happen. 
  (Kolab/issue1109)

* Don't attempt to fake the schedulingID in temporary
scheduling messages,
  rather rely on the detection of existing incidences which
works ok, if
  the calling code actually uses it, which it didn't, see
previous commit.
  (Kolab/issue1109 second half)

* Display "this event/task has been updated"
instead of "this is an
  invitation" if the sequence number of the ical
object is non-zero.
  (Kolab/issue1109 part 3)

* Fix wrong foreground color being used when "use
default colors" is checked.

* In case an update or cancel message is processed for an
incidence that
  cannot be found, inform the user, instead of blindly
adding a new
  version of the incidence. (Kolab/issue1128)

* Use the prettyURL, not the label for error messages and
don't 
  try to delete mail in readonly folders.

* If a folder is readonly and we detect a ghost message, try
the index
  regeneration part once, then put the folder in the set of
those to not
  check again, for this session, so we don't try to remove
messages.

* Make sure folders are created locally if there are no
annotations at
  all set (such as for no-content folders). Create all of
them if the
  server doesn't support annotations at all, to be safe.
Fixes problems
  with irregular folder listings on some servers.

* Change the default for hiding the groupware folders to
false.

* Also check for an empty subject when trying to find ghost
messages.

* Change the buttons to "Store" and "Throw
away" as requested.

* Make the saving of encrypted messages as unencrypted work
again.

* Cache the utf8 textcodec, because codecForName turns out
to be a 
  performance bottleneck, and it's called in a tight loop
for each loaded
  incidence. Further step towards fixing issue1118.

* Fix the spurious extra characters at the end of inline
invitations.
  (Kolab/issue1118)

* Be sure to reload the addressbook, when we've added a
contact.
  A bit crude, but that's what 3.5 does. (Kolab/issue1084).

* The distribution list code assumes there are no , and ; in
the
  uid. Make sure of that, at least internally, otherwise
display names
  like "Foo, Bar" break.  (Kolab/issue1152)

* Make sure we don't insert ; or , as identifiers in a
distlist.
  (Kolab/issue1152)

* Adjust visual defaults in the certificate manager
according to
  Aegypten issue322.

* Fix potential crash after resetting a sync.

* Fix for kpilot sync conflict warning even when nothing
changed in kontact.
  (Kolab/issue1097)

* Fix for: kpilot sometimes removes first occurrence of a
recurring event.
  (Kolab/issue1135)

* Fix for: kpilot doesn't sync location field of events.
  (Kolab/issue1134)

* Fix for: Contacts from Palm don's show properly in
KAddressBook
  (Kolab/issue1156)

Documentation:
--------------

* Add a section for non-gui options and explain
SendMDNsWithoutSender
  option in the documentation.
