Popcorn release 1.41 beta 4

24 June 2003:
Popcorn is a freeware ultra-lightweight POP3/SMTP e-mail client for Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP

It works as a client/server application, reading mail directly from POP3 servers.
It is ideally suited for on the road mail access, for scanning, reading and sending mail over slow connections.
It supports multiple user profiles, enabling you to read and send mail from any number of accounts.
It requires no installation, no data is saved locally other than a portable .INI file containing account information.
It is ideal for cleaning up POP3 accounts, removing spam, unwanted mail, large attachments etc...
It has a mail editor allowing you to compose and send new mail, reply to, forward and re-direct received mail.
It fits easily on a floppy or other portable (even read only) media, making it easy carry around at all times.

New features:

* Redesigned and simplified the "Mailbox info for all Profiles" dialog.
* Double-clicking on a profile in the "Mailbox info for all Profiles" dialog will activate the corresponding profile in the inbox and download the latest headers.
* Pressing "enter" when the list view has focus in the "Mailbox info for all Profiles" dialog will activate the corresponding profile in the inbox and download the latest headers.
* Right-clicking on a profile in the "Mailbox info for all Profiles" dialog will "resets" it's status (used to be double-click).
* Added error message suppression option when Popcorn is minimized in the system tray. This option is turned on ("TRUE") by default, to disable it/turn it off, set the "SuppressErrorsTray" variable in the Popcorn.ini file to "FALSE".
* Added user definable online spell check to the mail editor available by marking the word, then pressing F7 or using the context pop-up menu. The spell check URL can be changed through the "SpellCheckURL" variable in the popcorn.ini file. The "%s" format specifier in the URL string is used to insert the spell check word into the URL.
* Popcorn can now repeat the new mail sound with a fixed interval set by the user. The default value is 0 seconds (repeat disabled). The value can be changed through the Popcorn.ini file by editing the "RepeatSoundInt" value.
* Popcorn can now start with the "Mailbox info for all profiles" dialog automatically opened by setting the "AllProfilesOnStart" variable in the Popcorn.ini file to "TRUE". This option is turned off ("FALSE") by default.
* Added "Handle mailto: protocol" registration option checkbox in the Popcorn installer.
* Added "Minimize on Close" toggle menu item on the Windows menu.

Bug-fixes:

* The tray icon tooltip now also shows the last time you checked all accounts for new mail when doing a complete "manual" pass.
* Popcorn did not always save/restore the size and position of the "Mailbox info for all profiles" dialog, this has now been fixed.
* Fixed a bug that would crash Popcorn if it was set as the system default mail client, no user profiles had been created and a mailto: link was clicked while Popcorn was running (which does not happen very often :)
* Fixed DST time offset problem when sending mails from Popcorn.
* Simplified more menu items
