All about this Release!
This is the first release of our new 1.4.x-series which is officially labeled STABLE! We’ve been through a long development trajectory which has resulted in this version. The big plusses of 1.4 over the previous 1.2.x series are enhanced stability, better compatibility with a wide range of mail/websystems, more features and less bugs. See the Major Updates section of this file for more.

Major updates
The 1.4.0 series (as a result of 1.3 developing series) brings:

• A complete rewrite of the way we send mail (Deliver-class), and of the way we parse mail (MIME-bodystructure parsing). This makes SquirrelMail more reliable and more efficient at the same time!
• Support for IMAP UID which makes SquirrelMail more reliable.
• Optimizations to code and the number of IMAP calls; SquirrelMail is now a very scalable webmail solution.
• Support for a wider range of authentication mechanisms.
• Lots of bug fixes, some new features and a couple of UI tweaks.
