AuthMe 5.7.0

This release focuses on stability, reconnect handling, mail reliability, and cleanup of long-deprecated code, while also improving localization support across
commands.

Breaking changes

Java 17 is now required for AuthMe
5.7.0.
Legacy xAuth and Whirlpool support has been removed. If your server still depends on those old hash formats, migrate before upgrading.

Improvements

Replaced hardcoded command strings with translatable MessageKey entries, improving localization coverage.
Restored thrown ender pearls and mounted vehicles more reliably after reconnect.
Enforced name/IP restrictions earlier during AsyncPlayerPreLoginEvent for better protection.

Fixes

Fixed stale disk limbo data when a player quits before limbo is fully created.
Fixed concurrent access issues affecting SQLite, timed counters, logout flow, and mail handling.
Prevented SMTP sending from freezing the main server thread by dispatching mail work asynchronously.
Corrected SSL/TLS handling for mail delivery and added the Email.sslCheckServerIdentity setting.
Fixed teleport edge cases, including the y = 0 bug and spawn handling for unregistered players when registration is not forced.
Fixed AccountsCommand self-lookup to use the correct self-owned accounts message.

Maintenance

Updated dependencies and build tooling.
Refreshed CI compatibility, including ProtocolLib
5.3.0 and Multiverse 4.3.16 updates.
