This version is a major upgrade, the updates as below:
>> Features / Improvements
* Important (I): standardize the storage and execution of scheduling information. Now, no matter how you modify the language, country, time zone, date and time format of Windows, it will not affect the execution of scheduling.
* I: the efficiency of OBO sending is greatly improved, because now only one SMTP connection and session is needed to complete all OBO sending. The previous versions have to “connect to server -> start session -> end session -> disconnect from server” for every recipient.
* Important (I): can directly display the fine-tuned main interface at startup instead of gradually adjusting it. It greatly increases the UI friendliness.
* I: can sort data by numeric for [Spent], [Success], [Failure] and [Cancelled] columns on the “Logs” interface. In previous versions, they are sorted by text.
* I: many performances have been greatly optimized to further prevent the occurrence of potential bugs.
* I: redefined the value range and default values of some sending parameters to make them more reasonable, such as OBO sending interval, default re-sending interval and times, and so on.
* I: shows the screenshots of sample recipients files and can view the sample files when importing recipients from files, also, makes the related option.
* I: applied multi-threading technology to some time-consuming operations (such as manual sending, checking for new versions, etc.) to avoid interface freezes.
* I: will determine whether the target file is in use (cannot be written) when saving the recipients to a file, and if so, will write to a new file “new-copy-target_file” and inform the user.
* I: optimize various operation algorithms of the list to avoid flickering when the data is too large.
* I: attachments area: supports open item by pressing <Enter> or double-clicking.
* I: the judgment points of whether the template is changed are more accurate.
* Lets the [password] field get focus when edit an SMTP account (friendlier).
* Greatly optimized software texts for Polish.
* Optimized software texts for German.
* Optimized internal efficiency.

>> Bug Fixes
* I: reports 334 error code when sending emails by zohomail.com.
* I: if the position of the “Schedule” list is too high, the opened “Schedule setter” window may not be displayed completely, even the title cannot be seen, and ordinary users cannot move it. It should not exceed the top of the main interface.
* I: if detected a new version and you choose to upgrade software, and if the main interface prompts whether to create an SMTP account at this time, the program may crash when exiting.
* Will open the attachment when click it.

In previous versions, it can only process the standard “[email protected]” or “Name <[email protected]> formats.
* I: displays the date, time and numeric in localized format (friendlier).
* I: automatically arranges the inputted/imported recipients when saving the template: formats them as [email protected] or X <[email protected]> and removes redundant separators & invalid recipients.
