* Added "Enable mouse over on stacks" setting (Interface - Dock). When enabled a mouse over effect will appear when hovering over a stack in the Dock.

* Added "Disable Reply animation" setting (Interface - Mail). Mail shows an animation when you reply to an email in Lion. When you activate this option Cocktail disables this animation.
