  • Target version changed from Tails_1.3.2 to Tails_1.4

not fixed -> postponing

  • Assignee deleted (sajolida)
  • Target version deleted (Tails_1.4)

We did all we could do on this issue and will release an advisory before 1.4. There’s not much else we can do for the time being, so I’m removing this from 1.4 as it won’t be solved by then. Deassigning it from me either.

This bug was fixed by Claws-Mail. Is there a way to integrate it with 3.8.1 or would Tails need to upgrade its version of Claws-Mail in order to merge the fix? http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/claws-mail/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2965

#5 Updated by intrigeri 2015-08-18 05:32:14

Same as Bug #8999.

  • Priority changed from Elevated to Low

We’d rather work on switching to Icedove -> downgrading priority accordingly.

#7 Updated by Anonymous 2016-01-03 19:26:47

  • Status changed from Confirmed to Rejected

This has been documented how to change the behaviour and we will not ship Claws anymore soon. Closing.
