[Vtigercrm-developers] New Thunderbird 3 Extension Release 0.2.2

[Alan Lord (News)]

Hi all,

We are pleased to release version 0.2.2 of the Thunderbird 3 vtiger CRM 
extension.

This release includes a new Brazilian Portuguese translation, thanks to 
Valmir Carlos Trindade, and automatic login on start-up and a "first 
run" check.

The first time you start this version, you will see the first run check. 
Please accept the dialogue and save your setting as normal. After that 
you will be logged in silently when starting Thunderbird.

This release also fixes a bug (#273 
http://forge.vtiger.com/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=273&group_id=237&atid=963) 
when adding an email the search query would not return more than 100 
results. Thanks to Mark Geertsema for reporting this.

Changelog:

Fixed bug #273. When adding an email to a lead or contact, a broad 
search query would only ever return a maximum of 100 results. To fix 
this, the dialogue has been extended to provide an alert if the result 
will be large and the cursor is put into a waiting state whilst the 
search query is run.

Addition of Brazillian/Portugese translation: Thanks to Valmir Carlos 
Trindade of http://www.ttcasolucoes.com.br/

The extension now attempts to login automatically on start up. The 
status bar will identify if the system is on-line or not. No alert will 
be presented if login is successful.

The extension also now checks if it is being run for the first time. If 
so, it will prompt the user to configure the vtiger connection settings.

This new feature is the beginning of some work to enable the extension 
to maintain a connection to the vtiger CRM irrespective of the 
inactivity time of a user. Further work is still necessary to complete 
this however.

For the international contributors, there are several new i18n strings 
added to all locales. Please update when you can.

Thanks and enjoy :-)

Alan
