3 * Changes in 2.6.0 from 2.4.1.
5 ** FLIM 1.13.x is not supported any longer.
6 Please install FLIM 1.14.1 or later.
8 ** Now folder and summary buffer can be opened in a separate frame.
9 If `wl-folder-use-frame' is set as t, `M-x wl' creates a new frame
10 for folder mode. If `wl-summary-use-frame' is set as t, new frames
11 are created for each summary window.
13 ** Cursor moving speed ('N' or 'P' in summary) is greatly improved.
15 ** Folder checking speed for filter folder of localdir
16 folder using `last' or `first' (Ex. /last:100/+inbox) is improved.

21 If `wl-summary-lazy-highlight' is non-nil,
22 only visible portion of the buffer is colored.

33 ** Wanderlust 2.4.1 now works on FLIM 1.14.x.
35 ** Fixed a problem that POP connection remains after POP before SMTP.
37 ** The specification of IMAP4 authentication method for clear password
40 In 2.4.0, To use clear password authentication method in IMAP4
41 (Logging in with LOGIN command), you have to set the variable
42 `elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type' as 'plain (or nil).
43 But in 2.4.1, it is changed to 'clear (or nil).
45 (setq elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type 'plain)
47 (setq elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type 'clear)
49 * Changes in 2.4.0 from 1.1.1.
52 The version numbering convention for Wanderlust is changed.
54 In earlier versions, 1.x were stable version and from 2.0.x to 2.2.x
55 were beta version. But since version 2.3.0, the second (minor) version
56 number implies the stability of the Wanderlust. Even minor number
57 corresponds to a stable version, and an odd minor number corresponds
58 to a development version. This version numbering is based on the
59 widespread convention of open source development.
61 On the open CVS server cvs.m17n.org, main trunk contains the current
62 beta (newest experimental) version, and branches contain the stable
63 version. (If the version is 2.4.x, the branch name is wl-2_4)
67 *** FLIM 1.12 is not supported anymore.
68 See the file INSTALL for details.
70 *** APEL 10.2 or later is required.
71 tm-8 users should check the version of APEL (tm-8.8 contains old APEL).

77 If the variable wl-use-ldap is non-nil, LDAP feature is enabled
78 (Initial setting is nil).
80 *** UIDL support in POP3 folder
81 POP3 folder now saves the status of summary and it improves summary

83 used (Initial setting is t).
86 Wanderlust has started on supporting Standard Emacs 21.
87 Toolbars and icon images can be shown in almost Wanderlust
91 Server mailbox is checked periodically.
92 If new mail is arrived, Wanderlust changes the biff (icon) on the modeline
93 and updates folder mode content.
96 Now expire mechanism has new feature `hide', it does not remove
97 messages actually from folder but hides messages from summary. It
98 improves processing speed for large folders.

111 messages in the killed-list are treated as if it were not exist on the

113 (Initial setting is t). By this feature, NNTP pipe folder works correctly.

117 re-numbers the messages.
