Hi all,
we are pleased to announce version 0.5 of Trojitá, a fast Qt IMAP e-mail client. More than 500 changes went in since the previous release, so the following list highlights just a few of them:

• Trojitá can now be invoked with a mailto: URL (RFC 6068) on the command line for composing a new email.
• Messages can be forwarded as attachments (support for inline forwarding is planned).
• Passwords can be remembered in a secure, encrypted storage via QtKeychain.
• E-mails with attachments are decorated with a paperclip icon in the overview.
• Better rendering of e-mails with extraordinary MIME structure.
• By default, only one instance is kept running, and can be controlled via D-Bus.
• Trojitá now provides better error reporting, and can reconnect on network failures automatically.
• The network state (Offline, Expensive Connection or Free Access) will be remembered across sessions.
• When replying, it is now possible to retroactively change the reply type (Private Reply, Reply to All but Me, Reply to All, Reply to Mailing List, Handpicked).
• When searching in a message, Trojitá will scroll to the current match.
• Attachment preview for quick access to the enclosed files.
• The mark-message-read-after-X-seconds setting is now configurable.
• The IMAP refresh interval is now configurable.
• Speed and memory consumption improvements.
• Miscellaneous IMAP improvements.
• Various fixes and improvements.
• We have increased our test coverage, and are now making use of an improved Continuous Integration setup with pre-commit patch testing.

This release has been tagged in git as “v0.5“. You can also download a tarball (GPG signature). Prebuilt binaries for multiple distributions are available via the OBS, and so is a Windows installer.

We would like to thank Karan Luthra and Stephan Platz for their efforts during Google Summer of Code 2014.

Oh, Tinder, OkCupid, Grindr, whatever your particular dating app poison. Your first date dramas play in bars the world over. Because bars are a typical venue for painfully awkward first encounters, bartenders all have a front-row seat—and they’re definitely talking about it.

I don’t wear a watch and I hate time and yet I’m still so very impressed with the movement of this watch by FP Journe. It’s stunning and it is the most complicated watch that FP Journe makes because it’s a grande sonniere watch. Which means, it’s a complication that is able to audibly chime out the time.
