</dependency>

v8.8.0 - v8.8.2

- v8.8.2 (05-April-2024): #495: Add config support for 'verifyingServerIdentity' with SMTP, also: since Angus 1.1.0 server identity checks are on by default and can be countered by mailerBuilder.verifyingServerIdentity(false)
- v8.8.2 (05-April-2024): #501: [dependency] Update outlook-message-parser dependency, which has improved support for X500 addresses
- v8.8.1 (04-April-2024): #500: [bug] Fix parsing addresses from headers in EML files, like a Disposition-Notification-To with umlaut
- v8.8.0 (22-March-2024): #499: [Enhancement] Expose finer-grained DKIM configuration through the builder api and disable 'l-param' by default)

NOTE: this release changes the default for DKIM signing from 'l-param' true to false. If you rely on this feature, you need to enable it explicitly (see the updated https://www.simplejavamail.org/security.html#section-sending-dkim).


v8.7.0 - v8.7.1

- v8.7.1 (20-March-2024): #498: [Enhancement] Make S/MIME algorithms configurable (signature algorithm for signing, key encapsulation and cipher algorithms for encryption)
- v8.7.1 (20-March-2024): #497: [Bug] Order of attachments is lost when converting a MimeMessage to an Email
- v8.7.0 (20-March-2024): don't use this version: versioning messed up

NOTE: this breaks the API for S/MIME related builder methods. Refer to the [S/MIME documentation](https://www.simplejavamail.org/security.html#section-sending-smime) for the new API.


v8.6.0 - v8.6.3

- v8.6.3 (13-February-2024): #491: [bug] Attachment body parts should separately parse Content-Disposition and ContentID, possible resulting in an downloadable attachment that is also embedded
- v8.6.2 (27-January-2024): #493: [bug] don't require smime-module when adding collection of headers (also used when copying email)
- v8.6.1 (18-January-2024): #487: Move header filtering from MimeMessageParser to EmailConverter, thereby enabling access to all parsed headers when using MimeMessageParser directly
- v8.6.1 (18-January-2024): #489: Finished update to Angus Mail by updating activation dependency
- v8.6.0 (17-January-2024): #489: Update to Angus Mail

NOTE: this release switches to Angus Mail which should be a transparent change, but if you encounter any issues, please report them.
      One known issue is that Angus, since 1.1.0, performs server identity checks by default, which was previously disabled for SMTP. If you encounter issues with this, you can disable it with `mailerBuilder.verifyingServerIdentity(false)` and starting from 8.8.2, this also works with SMTP transport strategy (see #495).

- v7.7.0 (17-January-2023): #383: Feature: be able to set defaults and overrides on the Mailer level, rather than email or global level

7.7.0 moves the conversion of Email to MimeMessage to after a Transport instance has been selected (in case of a cluster of SMTP servers),
so we can apply defaults/overrides on the Mailer level, meaning you can configure 'global' values for individual SMTP servers
(like a fixed FROM per server).

- #330: Improved feedback from failing CLI commands
- #327: Implement toString() for Mailer instances for debugging purposes

#### About the migration ####

Updating to Java8/Jakarta 2.0.1 posed a challenge as the 3rd party S/MIME library https://github.com/markenwerk/java-utils-mail-smime has been abandoned/archived while developing Simple Java Mail. Furthermore, it was still under LGPL3 license while everything else is ApacheV2.

Thankfully, I obtained permissions from the maintainers -as well as original developers from decades ago on SourceForge- to take both java-utils-mail-smime and java-utils-mail-dkim under my wings at Simple Java Mail and change the licensing model! You can now post issues and pull requests here:
- https://github.com/simple-java-mail/java-utils-mail-smime
- https://github.com/simple-java-mail/java-utils-mail-dkim

Maintenance updates

Complete JavaDoc overhaul. Navigating the JavaDoc should be much more consistent now (builder API being the single *public* source of truth).

- #113 Updated the underlying JavaMail to 1.6.0

Security updates
- #111 Protocol properties for SMTPS are now applied properly
- #105 SMTP tries to upgrade to TLS while SMTP_TLS now enforces it and for both SMTP_TLS and SMTPS, mail.smtp.ssl.checkserveridentity is set
to true (https://javaee.github.io/javamail/docs/api/com/sun/mail/smtp/package-summary.html)

Bugfixes
- #110 Trusted hosts should be space-delimited
- #109 Email headers should be allowed to be empty (now conversion errors can occur as well)
- #103 Converting to MimeMessage results in an invalid Content-Disposition for attachments


v4.4.5 (2-September-2017)

- #101 API backwards compatibility update, reinstate old addRecipient API as deprecated (sorry for removing it abruptly)


v4.4.4 (21-August-2017)

API usability release. *This relase streamlined the recipient setters, breaking backwards compatibility (but straightforward to fix)*

- #95 Feature: Add support native API for setting Return-Receipt-To header
- #93 Feature: Add support native API for setting Disposition-Notification-To header
- #91 *Feature: Add support for parsing preformatted email addresses that include both name and address*
- #94 Bugfix: A single EmailBuilder would build emails that all share the same collections for recipients, attachments and embedded images
- #98 Bugfix: Subject and body content should be optional

v4.3.0 (12-August-2017)

Security and timeout release.

This version safeguards against SMTP injection attack from external values entering the library through *Email* instance. Also, this release
introduces default/configurable timeouts for connecting, reading and writing when sending an email.

- #89 Support multiple delimited recipient addresses sharing the same TO/CC/BCC name
- #88 Safeguard subject property (and others) against SMTP CRLF injection attacks
- #85 Apply configurable timeouts when sending emails
- #83 Parse INLINE attachments without ID as regular attachments when converting (mostly applicable to Apple emails)


v4.2.3 (21-May-2017)

- #79: Enhancement: define custom message ID on the Email object
- #74: v4.2.3-java-6-release: A java6 version with limited capabilities:
    I've released a customised java6 release with a customised outlook-message-parser 1.1.16-java6-release. This is the last java6 release I will do,
     as it is simply too much manual labor to create a limited second edition.

    For this edition, I've removed the JDK7 Phaser completely which has the following consequences:

    - If authenticated proxy is used, the bridging proxy server will not be shut down automatically (and might not run the second time)
    - If mails are sent in async mode, the connection pool will not be shut down anymore by itself

    This means your server/application might not stop properly due to lingering processes. To be completely safe, only send emails in sync mode (used by default) and don't use authenticated proxy config.


v4.2.2 (10-May-2017)

- #73: Patch: fix for sending emails in async mode, which makes sure the connection pool is always closed when the last *known* email has been sent. Without
this fix, the connection pool keeps any parent process running (main thread or Tomcat for example) until a hard kill.


v4.2.1 (12-Feb-2017)

Patch: streamlined convenience methods for adding recipients.


v4.2.0 (12-Feb-2017)

- #64: Feature: Added support for logging-only mode that skips the actual sending of emails
- #63: Feature: Already including in previous patch update: Spring support (read properties from Spring context)
- #69: Enhancement: Expanded EmailBuilder API to inlude more options for setting (multiple) recipients
- #70: Enhancement: Most public API now have defensive null-checks for required fields (Fail Fast support)
- #68: Bugfix: Name should be required for embedded images (added safeguards)
- #67: Bugfix: Error when name was omitted for attachment
- minor: added methods on AttachmentResource that reads back the content as (encoded) String
- other: internal testing is now done using Wiser SMTP test server for testing live sending emails

Note: Starting this release, there will always be a Java6 compatible release as well versioned: "x.y.z-java6-release"
