What's New
PopTrayU 4.1 beta 2 Released
05/11/2013

If you've upgraded to 4.1 beta 1, you will probably want to update. This release adds a few bug fixes. In 4.1b1 the progress bar was not lined up right, one of the main toolbar icons did not match the internal icons, and a couple things that didn't correctly follow the dark theme (when enabled) have been fixed. The help file has been updated to include the new 4.1 options.

The only major non-bugfix change in this release is that IMAP is no longer a dll/plugin, but built into the core. This appears to have speed improvements for IMAP accounts, and more ...

PopTrayU 4.1 beta 1 Released
05/08/2013

The 4.1 version of PopTrayU is exciting (well, at least to me) because I've finally successfully upgraded the Indy networking components from legacy version 9 to the current version 10. Version 10 does not require special Indy-specific versions of the OpenSSL dlls, which should make it faster and easier to keep up to date with the latest SSL improvements and bug-fixes. This is also an important first step in making the codebase ready to port to a more modern version of Delphi.

PopTrayU SSL Plugin 1.1
04/02/2013

One small (but annoying) bug removed. Previously, on a correctly installed machine, the plugin would give an extraneous error message on first use, "cannot load ssl library", and then function properly as if there was no problem once you reconnect. So this should cut down on useless error messages that aren't meaningful.

I'm still looking into figuring out why on some systems the ssl libraries need to be in PopTrayU's folder, and on other systems they need to be in the plugins folder. Old versions of poptray put the dll's in Poptray's directory, and ...

Version 4.0.10 Released
03/30/2013

A new version has been released to add two two small bug fixes.

First, when previewing emails I was occasionally seeing an error that encoding "utf8" that was "not supported" (though "utf-8" worked fine), so that's fixed. The list of possible email encodings is not very strict and has a lot of possible but less common alternate names for various encodings, and not every single one is programmed into poptrayu yet.

Second, occasionally messages (especially messages forwarded through a non-unicode aware server) were not having their subjects ...

Have you fallen in love with the fabulous open-source email notifier program Poptray, created by Renier Crause? But you're running a newer version of Windows than PopTray was designed for? Or get lots of UTF-8 encoded emails from Facebook, Flickr, Pinterest, and so forth that don't display correctly in PopTray? Now there's a new option. Developer Jessica Brown has taken the open-source code from PopTray and built upon it to create PopTrayU. All the things you love about PopTray, minus a few things you didn't!
