This is the stable release of the next major version 1.7 of Roundcube
Webmail.
After almost four years of development we introduce a few breaking
changes, some new features, and bring support for recent PHP versions.
With automated code style and quality checks, removed code bloat and
updated dependencies, we hope for even more codebase quality.
Some noteworthy changes are:
- Mandatory `public_html/` entry-point for HTTP servers, protecting all
installations better.
- Improved OAuth2/OIDC support (e.g. support for OIDC discovery, OIDC
logout).
- Markdown mail rendering and composing.
- A quick actions mouse-over menu on the messages list.
- Advanced mail search syntax.
## Breaking Changes
- Dropped support for PHP < 8.1.
- Dropped support for Internet Explorer.
- Dropped support for MS SQL Server and Oracle.
- `public_html/` entry-point made mandatory, all static resources are
served via `public_html/static.php`.
- Removed `apc` cache driver (replaced by `apcu` cache driver).
- Changed `smtp_log` option default value to `false`.
- Removed `contact_search_name` option in favor of
`contactlist_name_template`.
- Replaced session property `changed` by `expires_at`.
- Removed the (insecure) virtualmin password driver.
This release is considered stable and we encourage you to update your
productive installations after carefully testing the upgrade scenario.
With the release of Roundcube 1.7.0, the previous stable release branch
1.6.x changes into an LTS (low maintenance) mode which means it will
only receive important security updates. The 1.5.x series is no longer
supported and maintained.
And don't forget to backup your data before installing it!
