After a ridiculously long hiatus, we’re back with a new release: Lichen 0.4!

This release marks a return to active development (hooray!), and is also the last Lichen release that will work with PHP 4. It’s got a raft of changes, including ...

• improved switching between mailboxes and messages
• a new notification and feedback system
• more selection options
• working support for older browsers without JavaScript support
• an updated HTMLPurifier library that fixes a cross-site scripting vulnerability
• many bugfixes for PHP 4 users

As with 0.3, this release is not ready for production use, but it is ripe for testing ... please visit Trac if you encounter bugs!

Yay! Lichen is finally ready for public release, and thus we’re pleased to present version 0.3 available for download.

The first two versions (0.1 just displayed mail, and 0.2 got the fancy interface) weren’t really decent enough to release, and while there are still plenty of ugly sections of code we think Lichen is actually ready for testing now. That said, please don’t rely on it to handle all your mail just yet.

If you encounter bugs, please add them to Trac,
