It took longer than I expected, but I think it was worth to include a lot of feature requests, and get rid of some bugs. Many thanks to you all who gave me suggestions and reports and translations and thank-you-mails without this feedback the extension would have been even not half as nice as it is by now. So as you see, I like the result of the last weeks work, and I hope you will enjoy it too. Do not like to mention the list of bug-fixes again, just the list of new features to version 0.4.0 Compared:

  • you can now sort the header any way you like, then exclude 'to' or 'cc' as you like it, but you have to tell it that Virtual Identity has to use those headers. Sun change your settings and add 'to' and 'cc' to the list of headers. A header name now refers to all headers of that name, not like before only the outmost one of you mail. To select a specific header, just use the number of it's occurrence, so for instance "3" and add it to the header name. And if you wish to use only the email address and not the name, then simply add "@".
  • reading the headers in that version 0.4.0 or dependent on mnenhy installed enigmail. Now it's independent on other extensions, so you are free to use whatever you like (but to protect the freedom of having the same secrets as the way freedom of choice or the freedom of speach, you might choose to install enigmail anyway )
  • added a nice debug window, Which helps you understanding what really does Virtual Identity. using complex filter rules you might get very creative, and this is the place to look if it does not work as expected. This debug information is so helpful for me to understand how and when problems occur if you are sending a bug report.

Ok, here you can find the recent 0.4.1 release , and, tadaa, there will be a documentation soon ( have a look at the work in progress )
