Release 0.8 (stable) with new skin is out
by Thomas Bruederli 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hello folks, We're proud to finally announce the release of version 0.8 with the brand new skin, codename "Larry", becoming the new default UI for Roundcube. After two preview releases and a lot of fine-tuning, the new design by http://bueroflint.com has now grown up. But to all the nostalgics out there: don't worry! The old skin still remains part of the package and will be maintained for at least one more major release. Beside the new UI, this version also contains more bugfixes and mprovements (see ) as well as some code refactorings. Another major change since the last stable release is the updated license which is now GPL v3+ with exceptions for skin & plugins. Read more about that on http://roundcube.net/license After lots of testing and collecting your feedback, this version is considered stable and we recommend to update all productive installations of Roundcube. Get the new version from http://roundcube.net/download Finally, some important notes for sysadmins to deploy the new Roundcube: * The new skin brings an entirely new look to the webmail application. Please carefully plan a roll-out of the new version and prepare your users accordingly. * We're getting a lot of support requests from users who are under the impression that Roundcube is a public service such as Gmail or Hotmail. Unfortunately we cannot help these people and thus we'd like to encourage everybody to do some branding on your Roundcube installation. You can replace the logo by config (option 'skin_logo') and even more important: the new release now has an option named 'support_url' where everyone should fill in an URL to instructions how to get help for that specific installation of Roundcube. And last but not least: our recent partnership with the Kolab Groupware project is finally showing some results. The Kolab team just published a preview release of their all-new Kolab 3.0 groupware suite including Roundcube as the new web client. Enriched with nice new plugins, Roundcube gives easy access to all relevant groupware functions. Read more about Kolab at http://kolab.org/blog/grote/2012/08/07/alpha-kolab-3.0-and-roundcube-0.8-re… That's definitely worth celebrating, cheers! Thomas

keep-alive changes
by A.L.E.C 13 Nov '12

13 Nov '12

Digging into session issues I've found this keep-alive thing a little bit overcomplicated and unclear. The keep-alive setting handles two things: session keeping and new-mail checking. Some plugins also bind to keep-alive to do some recurring actions (e.g. to display calendar alarms, etc.). I think we should split these functionalities. So keep-alive action should be used only for session keeping. In such case we need to execute keep-alive action only after some inactivity time (e.g. session_lifetime - 1min [or 5%]). It means timer should be resetted on every reequest. Also it means we don't need a separate config option, because the interval would be calculated from session_lifetime. For session_lifetime=0 there would be no keep-alive requests. Another thing is recurring check for new-mail. This would work as is, but... see below. Last but not least. We should provide some "global" recurring action which would work across all tasks so, plugins could bind to it. One "global" action to minimize session race-conditions when few plugins will create their own recurring requests on the same time. In mail task we could "bind" our check-recent action to this global action. In my opinion this would be a much clearer solution and would give as some additional possibilities: - possibility to disable recurring checks (for new mail etc.) at all, - better overall performance because keep-alive out of mail task will be executed less frequently I think also, we could rename keep_alive option description ("Check for new messages on") into something like "Update system state (check for new mail, etc.) on", and move it to User Interface section, so we could use it as our global action interval. ps. I'm not sure we should change draft auto-save interval in any way to fit into this. For simplicity would be nice to use the same global action and its interval. -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl

PDO-based DB layer
by A.L.E.C 29 Oct '12

29 Oct '12

I've finished the new DB layer for Roundcube based on PHP PDO. It uses less memory (1.2 MB less) and should be faster than our old solution. The main differences: uses PDO modules, no prepared statements. Please, get 'pdo' branch and give it a try, so we could use this in 0.9. -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl

Github x Launchpad
by Victor Benincasa 06 Sep '12

06 Sep '12

Hello Thomas, There are plans to synchronize the RC translations between Github and Launchpad? Currently we already have problems with this, there are strings that were created or modified directly on Github and are not available in Lauchpad, like $labels['forwardmode'] (0.8) or $labels['undeleted'] (0.9-git). Tks! -- *Victor Benincasa* # *Mobile*: +55 (11) 992-227-227 | ID: 55*11*51775 | Skype: vbenincasa # *IT Manager* :: Networks, Applications, Systems, Security, Advanced Support

Strange behavior
by Claudio Filho 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Hi I updated my RC instance and I got a look in the /logs directory. I enabled the log to see what happens behind the scenes and I found some curious errors. [24-Aug-2012 14:27:14 -0300]: PHP Error: Failed to load plugin file /var/www/webmail/plugins/globaladdressbook/globaladdressbook.php in /var/www/webmail/program/include/rcube_plugin_api.php on line 202 (GET /webmail/?_task=mail) [24-Aug-2012 14:27:14 -0300]: PHP Error: Failed to load plugin file /var/www/webmail/plugins/tinymce/tinymce.php in /var/www/webmail/program/include/rcube_plugin_api.php on line 202 (GET /webmail/?_task=mail) [24-Aug-2012 14:27:14 -0300]: PHP Error: Failed to load plugin file /var/www/webmail/plugins/piwik_analytics/piwik_analytics.php in /var/www/webmail/program/include/rcube_plugin_api.php on line 202 (GET /webmail/?_task=mail) The strange is that i have piwik_analytics, but i haven't tinymce or globaladdressbook, in main.php.inc or /plugins directory. Some suggestion or explanation of what are happing? Best, Claudio

Enigma plugin: Parse bodystructure
by Szuts Attila 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

After PGP decrypting there will be only string with boundaries and mime parts (like plain Maildir format email, but without headers). Has RC any function (or class) to parse string into BODYSTRUCTURE? If it relies on IMAP server message parser, how to inject message back to the IMAP server parser? thx A.

Enigma plugin
by Szuts Attila 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

I composed a simple HTML mail with one txt attachment. enigma.php calling this hook: $this->add_hook('message_outgoing_body', array($this, 'msg_encode')); In msg_encode function debugging 'message' argument gives the following output: *array ( 'body' => '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><body> <p>123</p> <p> </p> <div> </div> </body></html> ', 'type' => 'html', 'message' => Mail_mime::__set_state(array( '_txtbody' => NULL, '_htmlbody' => NULL, '_html_images' => array ( ), '_parts' => array ( ), '_headers' => array ( ), '_build_params' => array ( 'head_encoding' => 'quoted-printable', 'text_encoding' => 'quoted-printable', 'html_encoding' => 'quoted-printable', 'html_charset' => 'ISO-8859-1', 'text_charset' => 'ISO-8859-1', 'head_charset' => 'ISO-8859-1', 'eol' => ' ', 'delay_file_io' => false, ), )), 'abort' => false, )* Where can I find the attached txt file? How can I reach and encrypt it? (I got no reply email from RC dev list. Maybe something wrong in my gmail account. sorry.) thx A.

Hard-coded references to larry
by Rob Sheldon 28 Aug '12

28 Aug '12

Hi, For various reasons (mostly having to do with not wanting to ask one user in particular to "try out larry"...) I renamed the larry theme on my installation to "default". This worked fine in 0.8.0, but breaks pretty hard in 0.8.1 -- any users using "default" get a "service not available! errno 501" error page when trying to log in. The error wasn't showing up in any of RC's various logs, even with all the knobs turned up. A quick grep found rcube_template to be the most likely cause; on a whim I decided to grep the installation for "larry" and found a half-dozen or so references there. Changing them all to "default" made everything happy again. Is it possible to not hard-code the name of a theme, and instead grab it from the config file? Thanks! - R. -- [__ Robert Sheldon [__ No Problem [__ Information technology support and services [__ (530) 575-0278
