Sendular 0.5.5 for Windows (preview)
=====================================

How to start
------------
1. Extract the whole zip to a folder you keep, for example
   C:\Users\<you>\Apps\Sendular. Don't run it from inside the zip.
2. Double-click Sendular.exe.

Nothing is installed. Your accounts and mail cache live in
%APPDATA%\Sendular. To remove Sendular, quit it from the
notification area and delete this folder and %APPDATA%\Sendular.

Updates
-------
From this version on, Sendular updates itself from updates.sendular.app.
Every update is signed by Sendular and checked before it's used, and only
files that changed are downloaded. The new version goes into a "versions"
folder next to Sendular.exe and is used the next time Sendular starts; if
it doesn't start, Sendular goes back to the one before. Turn automatic
downloads off in Settings > Updates. Keep Sendular in a folder you can
write to (for example in your user profile), not in Program Files.

Windows SmartScreen
-------------------
Sendular.exe isn't code-signed, so Windows may show
"Windows protected your PC". Choose "More info", then "Run anyway".

What's in this preview
----------------------
- IMAP accounts (OX App Suite, Zoho Mail, or any server set up by hand)
- Unified inbox, Focused and Other, VIPs, flagged, snoozed, folders
- Reading plain and HTML mail, threads, attachments
- Writing, replying, forwarding, rich text, signatures, drafts,
  undo send, scheduled send
- Push (IMAP IDLE) and new-mail notifications while Sendular runs
- Notification-area icon: closing the window keeps Sendular running
  when push is on or a scheduled message is waiting
- App lock with Windows Hello, hidden from screenshots while locked

Not in this preview yet
-----------------------
Calendar invites, backup and restore, printing polish, rules and the
other extras from the Android app come in a later Windows build.
Gmail and Microsoft sign-in are "Coming soon" here, as on Android.

Good to know
------------
- HTML mail is shown with a built-in renderer without scripts, not a
  browser engine. Most mail looks right; heavily designed newsletters
  can look plainer, and text inside HTML mail can't be selected.
- Passwords are encrypted with Windows (DPAPI) for your user account.
- If something goes wrong, %APPDATA%\Sendular\sendular.log has details.
