53 In 2.4.0, To use clear password authentication method in IMAP4
54 (Logging in with LOGIN command), you have to set the variable
55 `elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type' as 'plain (or nil).
56 But in 2.4.1, it is changed to 'clear (or nil).

60 (setq elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type 'clear)
62 * Changes in 2.4.0 from 1.1.1.
65 The version numbering convention for Wanderlust is changed.
67 In earlier versions, 1.x were stable version and from 2.0.x to 2.2.x
68 were beta version. But since version 2.3.0, the second (minor) version
69 number implies the stability of the Wanderlust. Even minor number
70 corresponds to a stable version, and an odd minor number corresponds
71 to a development version. This version numbering is based on the
72 widespread convention of open source development.
74 On the open CVS server cvs.m17n.org, main trunk contains the current
75 beta (newest experimental) version, and branches contain the stable
76 version. (If the version is 2.4.x, the branch name is wl-2_4)

106 and updates folder mode content.

111 improves processing speed for large folders.
