Hello folks
The development team is proud to announce the next beta release with
new features, fixes and improvements under the hood: we re-implemented
the entire message caching to make mail reading even faster than
before, the message list now supports priority headers and the
integrated spell checker has gained some options and personal
dictionaries. Last but not least one can now save searches in the
address book. And of course lots of bug fixes and small improvements
are included to increase the fun working with Roundcube.
For a complete list of changes see http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Changelog
We recommend to install and test this beta version on a separate
environment until we have polished the stable release.
Cheers,
Thomas

Dear subscribers
The next major release has finally reached stable state and is now
available for download. The most important improvement since the 0.5
line is certainly the full-featured address book which now provides a
smart interface to manage rich contact information including photos.
Those who skipped the beta release 0f 0.6 and are still running 0.5
can find a brief description of all new features here:
http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/announce/2011-08/0000002.html
We recommend to update all existing Roundcube installations with this release.
Get it now from http://roundcube.net/download and have fun!
Cheers!
Thomas

Dear Roundcube lovers
We're proud to announce the next major release of the Roundcube
webmail package: 0.6 is out now as beta.
And it's packed with new features, some of them have been awaited for
long time. So what's new?
* A full-featured address book with rich contact information
The address book UI was finally extended to store rich contact data
including photos. We worked hard to create a flexible and intuitive UI
to enter and manage the contact data. Along with that, import and
export of vcards was improved to support all the new fields. If you
have LDAP directories configured as address sources, you might review
the configuration and map the new contact fields to the according LDAP
attributes using the 'fieldmap' property.
* Group support for LDAP address books
While speaking of LDAP, the LDAP wrapper of Roundcube now also
supports address groups thanks to the contribution of Andreas Dick.
This requires some additional configuration which is described in the
comments of config/main.inc.php.dist
* ACL rights/namespace management plugin
The new package includes a plugin which extends the folder manager to
manage Access Control Lists according to RFC4314 and RFC2086. This
allows one to share folders with other users if the IMAP server
supports ACL. If there's a LDAP directory configured, the ACL manager
even does auto-completion when adding a new user.
* memcache support for session storage
As an alternative to the SQL-based storage of user sessions, Roundcube
0.6 is now capable of using memcache for fast and redundant storage of
session data. Set 'session_storage' and 'memcache_hosts' config
options to enable it.
* File uploads with progress display
Using the features of the APC module, Roundcube can now display the
progress of file uploads. This has to be enabled in config using the
'upload_progress' option. Make sure APC is available in PHP and that
apc.rfc1867 is set in php.ini
* Automated update process with database schema check
Upgrading Roundcube installations has become an easy task with the new
update shell script. Unpack the new package in some directory and then
run bin/installto.sh <TARGETDIR> from there. TARGETDIR is the location
of the Roundcube installation which you want to upgrade. The script
then copies all files to the target directory and does all
modifications necessary to get the database and config files
up-to-date.
* Exchange logo by config
And last but not least, one can now set a customized logo by config
without the necessity to create a new skin. We'd like to encourage all
hosting providers to set the 'skin_logo' config option with an URL to
their logo. This will hopefully clarify to your users, what service
they're actually using. We registered an increased amount of support
requests from users who don't understand that Roundcube is not a
public service but that they have to contact their ISP for help.
Of course there are also many improvements under the hood to make
Roundcube faster, more stable and more secure.
So go forth and install Roundcube 0.6 beta on your servers [1]. We
recommend to test it on a separate environment and report bugs to our
bug tracking system [2]. An improved and stabilized version will
follow soon.
A little note for skin developers: the new address book also brings
the following new template objects which need to be placed in the HTML
templates: contactphoto, contacthead, contactedithead,
photouploadform. Have a look at the default skin templates to get
inspiration for the placement and styling.
Many thanks to all who use and improve Roundcube every day!
Best regards,
Thomas

Hello Roundcube lovers
The just released update fixes some bugs discovered with the 0.5
stable version and also improves security by preventing some possible
CSRF attacks. This includes an optional referer check which is yet
disabled by default. If you trust HTTP Referer headers you can enable
it in config with $rcmail_config['referer_check'] = true;
Furthermore IDNA support has now been improved and some visual
glitches in IE and Safari have been resolved. Thanks again to all
reporters and pathc contributors!
We recommend to update all existing Roundcube installation with this
release. It can be downloaded from http://roundcube.net/download
and a complete list of changes is available here:
http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Changelog
Best wishes,
Thomas

Hello Roundcube users and lovers
The next major release has now reached stable state and is available
for download. The important new features since 0.4 are: full support
for shared folders and namespaces, Internationalized Domain Names
(IDNA) as well as SMTP Delivery Status Notifications. The user
interface for managing IMAP folders has changed a bit and provides new
space for further extensions and plugins. This was already part of the
release candidate published some weeks ago and the new stable version
fixed the last few bugs, namely some issues with namespaces.
We recommend to update all existing Roundcube installations with this release.
Get it now from http://roundcube.net/download and have fun!
~Thomas

I'm hosting a web site ( http://test-ipv6.com ) that *may* get a fair bit of
attention this week. It will be part of a press release involving several
major web sites. It will also be on the web site of a prominent
organization coordinating the press release.
The server *may* have a sudden increase in business, depending on the level
of attention the press release (and media interviews related to it) gets.
What does this mean for you?
- Mailing lists I host (woodworkers, roundcube, corvette resto, etc) will
possibly run a bit slower on getting mail delivered.
- Web sites I host may be less snappy. Possibly, downright slow.
- Shell access, for those of you who have it, may appear lagged.
- If you aren't sure why you're getting this mail at all, it means
that you have an email address that is routed through my server.
Ping me directly if you're not sure why.
I'm looking into ways to help spread the load to other servers, but I'm
gated on both time and money, as well as IPv6 availability on any resources
that might be contributed. As such, the next handful of days *may* be
bumpy. I want to appologize in advance for that.
I have had the suggestion from one of the web sites on the press release to
look at Google App Engine. I will do that, but I am constrained on when I
can do that. I can't mix my employer's time or resources, with working
on test-ipv6.com. The soonest I can do any significant change will be
Friday.
Additionally, the organization putting out the press release, is working on
setting up a mirror of my site; once complete, they will hopefully take
some of the traffic themselves.
If you have an urgent issue, call 1-877-4FESLER, extension 22. If I can't
asnwer the phone, leave a message (I may be in a meeting). But do leave the
message, and I will get it.
