KLassie / News: Recent posts

A new release is out with a bug fix for POP3 support through KIO and removal of calls that caused kicker to quit. Really the KIO "bug fix" is a work around, I believe this is a bug in the pop3 slave.

A small bugfix has been made, that fixes a problem in the IMAP provider communicating with Netscape IMAP server. The Netscap server returned the status information with quotes around the mail box name, which klassie was not expecting.

Version 1.2 has been released. This includes some useful new features.

1. A KIO provider has been added. This allows the use of KDE's builtin support for POP3, IMAP, NNTP, POP3s, IMAPs, and more protocolls.

2. Providers can now supply text to go in a tool tip. Currently the Shell provider is the only one to support this.

The Shell Provider will now take numerical data from the beginning of the output to provide the number. Any remaining text will go to the tool tip.

After no bug reports from the outside world, I decided to make the 1.0 release. This includes a minor bug fix that will allow the applet to remember the provider.

klassie 0.99 has been released. The release includes source tar balls and a debian binary package.

The current beta version of KLassie has been imported into the CVS repository on sourceforge.
