Demo scene: The Black Lotus released final version of Starstruck
12 years after the first release of "Starstruck" at the Assembly 2006 - the demo did win the competition - the scene group The Black Lotus has released a final version of it. According to the authors, the final version fixes some display errors. Additionally some optimizations of the performance, caused by an Atari-Falcon-port by MiKRO / Mystic, were back ported to the Amiga.

Starstruck requires an AGA Amiga with a 68060 (50 Mhz) and about 50 MB Fast-RAM. Graphic boards are not supported. (cg) (Translation: dr)

MorphOS: E-Mail client Iris, beta 24
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek's "Iris" is supposed to become the default mail program for MorphOS. It supports IMAP and can read and create HTML mails. The program requires MorphOS 3.10. You can give feedback to the author using the corresponding discussion on Morphzone. Changes since our last news item:

Beta 24
  • Email viewer displays some basic error on failure now, instead of just showing the loading animation forever
  • Fixed: OAuth2 wouldn't always migrate to new settings correctly
  • Fixed: OAuth2 could never complete in some cases
  • Fixed: if the latest message in folder was removed on server, it was not removed from the local cache
Beta 23
  • Reworked job priority queue to avoid situations where one has to wait for email contents for too long
  • Folder full sync jobs can now be done in steps (unlocks email reading while syncing)
  • Fixed email counts in the folder tree for IMAP
  • Reworked autoconfiguration for OAuth2 providers
  • Added Yahoo! Mail OAuth2 provider (does NOT work at the moment)
  • Cut text (cmd+x) shortcut added to the email writer
  • Revamped transport security settings - now a switch between TLS, STARTTLS and opportunistic STARTTLS
  • When replying or forwarding mail, an appropriate flag on the source email is set
  • Fixed: quick folder synchornization would call Close on a fh twice if ChangeMode() failed
  • Fixed: Removing an account did not kill the entry from the settings list
  • Fixed: After an account was removed but not removed from the list, collecting properties for the non-existing account threw exceptions
  • Fixed: there was a rather nasty race condition in the main Session class
  • Fixed: after adding a message to a folder and synchronizing the folder, each time it was synchronized, the message would duplicate in the index
