IMAPFilter Changelog

What's new in IMAPFilter 2.5.6

Dec 10, 2014
  • Support for automatic validation of SSL connections, using the operating system's installed trusted CA certificates (usually from authorities that are shipped with web browsers).
  • A new "wakeonany" option makes it possible to end IDLE mode on any event, not just on new messages.
  • A new "reenter" option controls whether IDLE mode should be re-entered, after the recovery of the session, which makes it possible to continue with the execution of the next line in the configuration file.
  • The documentation now mentions that the contain_*() methods do case-insensitive searching (an IMAP limitation).
  • The documentation now has a better explanation of the arrived_*() and sent_*() methods.
  • Bug fix; the value returned by the copy method was incorrect in some cases.
