  Backspace), has been improved.

* the Network Log now displays output from LDAP operations.

* "Go to last error" has been added to the Log Window context menu.

* Filtering/Processing: "mark_as_spam" is no longer a final action,
  since it does not move the marked message.

* Filtering/Processing: Resent-From and Resent-To have been added in
  Any/All header(s) (in Address Book) matcher rules.

* when a Return-Receipt request is received by an unknown address,
  the user is now required to choose which Account to send it from.

  overriding existing colour labels.

  been done when processing multiple selections.
