# Mailspring Changelog
## 1.14.0
This version of Mailspring includes several improvements:
- Mailspring now connects to Outlook accounts using OAuth.
- The `autoconfig` database used to identify your IMAP and SMTP settings automatically has been upgraded to reflect changes in provider settings.
- On Windows and Linux, previewing attachments is more robust and works with a wider variety of files. These attachments also have rendered previews in the message view.
- Mailspring allows you to add Medium, GitHub and YouTube links to email signatures created in the app. (#2484) Thanks @sudeephazra!
- Subject lines no longer overflow if they contain single long words (#2485) Thanks @probablykasper!
Developer:
- Mailspring now uses Electron 30, a recent supported release based on Chromium M124 - thanks to @Phylu for lots of PRs and manual testing that helped us move up three years of versions (v17 => v30) in the last 12 months!
- The Changelog now mentions security contributions by Positive Technologies, Payatu, and Sonar in v1.13.3.
## 1.13.3
Happy new year! This is a small update to Mailspring with a few important changes:
- On macOS, long-pressing a key to show it's available subtitutions (eg: `e` to see `é, ê, etc.`) now works properly in the email composer. Sorry for the delay fixing this issue, for many non-english speakers on macOS we know it's a core part of your email workflow.
- We now escape subject and participant names in the print modal, ensuring that they render properly for printing. Thanks to Andrialdy R for identifying and documenting a related vulnerability.
- We now use DOMPurify to sanitize the content of HTML emails for display. DOMPurify is maintained by a team of security-oriented web engineers and will ensure Mailspring protects you from the widest possible range of XSS attacks and exploits. Thanks to Yaniv Nizry of [Sonar](https://sonarsource.com) for identifying and reporting weaknesses in our old sanitizer.
- As part of the DOMPurify change, Mailspring now supports a smaller range of links in emails (https://, tel://, mailto:// etc). Thanks to Vaibhav Rajput and Prajyot Chemburkar of [Payatu](https://payatu.com/) for reporting that smb:// links were previously allowed and useful in triggering exploits.
## 1.13.2
This is a patch release that fixes several issues:
- Composition events in Mailspring's composer should work as expected. (Typing modifier keys, such as Option-E followed by E to create É)
- The composer warn about several more invalid recipient errors correctly (thanks @Phylu!)
- Dark-mode tray support on Windows has been improved with new icons (thanks @Phylu!)
- The Linux Snap build no longer requests extraneous permissions (thanks @3v1n0!)
## 1.13.1
Mailspring 1.13 now runs on Electron 22, completing a migration process we started in 1.12.0!
If you are upgrading from an old version of Mailspring, download and run 1.12.0 first before installing this version. We've moved from keytar to Electron's safeStorage API for securely storing your email passwords, and version 1.12.0 will perform a migration ensuring your passwords are transitioned.
If you're using the snap version of Mailspring, you may find that Mailspring forgets your passwords when you upgrade. I'm very sorry for the hassle this causes - issues with snap containment in version 1.12.0 caused Mailspring to lose many user's passwords during the upgrade process. If this applies to you, you may see password errors and need to:
Visit Preferences > Subscription and click Setup Mailspring ID and sign back in to your Mailspring account. (You should see an alert at launch that will remind you which email address you'd used for your Mailspring ID)
Visit Preferences > Accounts and re-authenticate any accounts shown in red that are having connection difficulty.
## 1.12.0 (10/09/2023)

- Traditional chinese localizations have been greatly improved. (Thanks @PeterDaveHello)
Developer:
- Mailspring now stores your mail secrets using Electron SafeStorage instead of the deprecated Keytar library thanks to updates by @Phylu. This will allow us to move to a newer version of Electron soon!
- The Snap package now uses core22 and the `gnome` extension. (Thanks @soumyaDghosh)
## 1.11.0 (07/28/2023)
Features:
- The "Move to Folder" menu action allows you to press Tab or the "→" key to complete the name of the highlighted folder, which makes it easier to complete a path in long folder hierarchies.

- On MacOS, the Mailspring icon in the dock now allows you to compose a new message from the context menu. (thanks @Naroh091)

## 1.10.1 (3/12/2022)
This release fixes a critical issue in 1.10.0 that caused the app to fail to launch on Windows. This was caused by upstream changes to our AppVeyor build pipeline that changed the default compilation architecture from ia32 to x64 on Windows. We're sorry it took so long to track this down!

- When messages must scroll horizontally, we add 20px to the computed height to account for the scrollbar and avoid clipping the last line of text. #1762
- Fixes an occasional issue that could cause the people sidebar to become blank if the user's LinkedIn handle was malformed. #1909

- If your machine's hostname contains spaces, Mailspring will strip them when identifying itself to SMTP servers to avoid being rejected in some cases. If it cannot determine your hostname it will fall back to your IP address similar to how Thunderbird works. #1808
- Deleting a "Found in Mail" contact from a CardDAV account (Fastmail, etc.) no longer causes sync to crash. #1722

- Mailspring now supports plaintext mail display and composition! It can be enabled via a new setting, or for a single draft by holding Alt/Option when creating it. Most composer features are disabled in ths mode - for more information, check out https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring/issues/52#issuecomment-588627578.
**Fixes:**
- Mailspring now prompts you to confirm that you'd like to delete folders and labels. #1785
- When pasting a table from Excel or other forms of HTML that use `
