14 DAY TRIAL // Geary, a lightweight email program designed around conversations and built for the GNOME desktop by the Yorba software group, is now at version 0.5.2.
The software is developed by Yorba, the same team responsible for Shotwell, a photo manager that is the default application in major Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Fedora.
Highlights of Geary 0.5.2:
• The recognition of special folders for "Other" accounts has been improved; • A prompt message is now provided before permanently deleting messages; • Searching for "from:me" and the like is now allowed; • The conversation viewer now features quoted text improvements; • A number of UI and icon improvements have been implemented.
You can download a source package for Geary 0.5.2, but developers say that Ubuntu users can also find a version for Ubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 13.04, and Ubuntu 12.10 on Yorba’s PPA.
Remember that this is a development version and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended for testing purposes only.
