Thunderbird 0.4 Release Candidate 1 Now Available
Our first release candidate for 0.4 is now available. Hopefully we'll drive the remaining 0.4 bugs to zero in short order. I can't thank everyone enough for all the great testing you have been doing over the last couple days!
Without further ado:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ ... 2-01-trunk
**NOTE: Windows and Mac RC1 builds late 12/02 / early early morning 12/03 depending on the mirror site. The build ID in Help / About will show 20031202 if you have the latest Win and Mac builds. More details below **
What's New:
--------------
1) Mailing list dialog, subscribe dialog, search addresses dialog, offline dialog are now using the new icons. Thanks to Stephen Walker for the fix.
2) Results in the search Addresses dialog now only show a subset of the available columns by default instead of showing all the address book columns.
3) David Bienvenu landed an IMAP fix where you got stuck with an hour glass when selecting the Inbox while new mail is being downloaded.
4) Find in message now always forces focus on the message pane so you no longer have to do it yourself.
5) The offline extension for 0.4 builds: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ ... fline/0.4/
6) If you haven't found it already, there is also a Palm Sync Extension for 0.4 for synching with palm address books. Still working on the user page to explain the extension.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/ ... msync/0.4/
7) Find in dialog works again for standalone message window in 12/02 Win32 Respin
8) Security button can now be dragged into the customize toolbar dialog in mail compose. 12/02 Respin (Win32, OSX)
9) Attachments with non-ASCII file names can now be saved correctly. 12/02 Win32 Respin.
Note: Some of these things aren't in the GK2 build because Andre made it before I checked some of these items in.
Known Issues Blocking the Release:
------------------------------------------
1) Hooded One's problem with making thunderbird the default client on windows
2) The remaining 0.4 bugs in bugzilla

I will release 0.4rc1 gcc builds (i686, AthlonXP and Pentium 4 optimized) in something like 4 or 5 hours. Just giving the time to my computer to make them
Yeah, I wasn't sure if that list was between 11/30 and 0.4RC1, or if maybe it was a summary of a few important things that have been introduced since 0.3 or the last month or something like that.

recipient lookup
Typing recipient name into the "TO:"-field kicks up the name lookup function:
However, clicking on the scrollbar and/or arrows does not function as you'd expect, instead you get whatever email is present on that row!
My pet peeve, automatic downloading of attachments which are downloaded again when saved is still present, too.

there is a bug with the default theme, this happens with a clean install and new profile,
it affects my imap inbox, after the first 2 or 3 times i open tb (haven't pinned it down to
an exact number) the icon for the inbox reverts back to the netscape 4 icon

great build
I've so far not experienced anything out of the ordinary. The icons look great.
One thing that has annoyed me for some time is that the mail notification icon doesn't always go away when you maximize the mail client (even when double clicking the icon). You have to deselect and then reselect the inbox folder (at least that seems to do the trick for me).
Anyway I just noticed that there were three junk mails (properly filtered) and no notification icon. Thanks man! I hadn't noticed this had been fixed. Three unnecessary notifications less, that kind of thing is important to me.

WFM +theme-bug
everything working with rc1 over here...
with all the theme-issues around here lately, I think I should mention this - I haven't seen it around although it's very disturbing - sorry if it's already a very well known problem - I just wonder if it just happens to me...
in the toolbar-customization-drawer-thing in mail-compose, the security-icon is shown very odd. If it is dragged onto the toolbar (large icons, captions enabled), it shows without any problem (the usual lock-picture). But if it's dragged off the toolbar into the drawer, something strange happens:
My profile exists since TB 0.3 - maybe this is related to my "old" profile - i don't know.
please notify me if this problem is well-known - i'll then edit my post and remove the image, because the image is quite large and it's useless to show it if it has no use... well...

Nasty Bug/Regression in RC 1
Ever since I installed RC 1 going from the 11/26 build, I cannot send emails - going back to 11/26 fixes the problem. I am connecting standard, no SSL via IMAP.
This is on Windows 2K.
Anyone else experiencing this?
cheers, JH

I can confirm that.
