Agreed; quite enough improvements to justify a release!

Cool!

I just pushed a few more cleanups to README; will try to get to the help files 
later. It would be good to give the translators a couple of weeks' notice 
before actually releasing, especially if the help files are changed 
substantially.

Yes, that sounds like a good idea!  I.e. around Easter might be a good idea, 
wouldn't it?

BTW, there are still minor inaccuracies in the README –
* no OpenSSL dependency any more
* gtkhtml4 support has been removed
* no aspell libs required (e.g. see attached).

Using the current master with IMAP intensely, I had two crashes recently.  The 
first triggered a CRITICAL and then a segfault, and the second a segfault only 
and (running on Debian Stretch) a memory corruption/suspected double-free 
report; both not in gdb, unfortunately.  Running Balsa in valgrind, I got 
reports about using uninitialised memory, but no crash.  I still have to 
investigate that, and I'm not sure if its related, though.  As running in 
valgrind is rather slow, the crashed /might/ be caused by a race which is 
“hidden” by the slow processing in the latter case.  Hmmm…

Cheers,
Albrecht.
