Exim4U Version 2.0.1 Released
Hello Everybody, Exim4U version 2.0.1 was released today. Highlights of this release are as follows: Simple Mailing List Added To Exim4U's Web Interface Exim4U now includes a mailing list manager module called the Simple Mailing List. This module is accessibly from within the Exim4U web interface and is similar in functionality to dedicated mailing list manager packages but with substantially fewer features. The Simple Mailing List is not meant as a direct replacement for dedicated mailing list manager packages since it has a much smaller feature set, however, it offers a quick and simple alternative for basic mailing lists especially for installations where no other mailing list manager is installed. Exim4U Webmail Groupware Is Now Based On Horde Version 4 And Uses The Horde Pear Installer Horde Version 4 is a significant upgrade over Horde version 3 with much improved AJAX frontends for the various modules along with a new installation process using the PEAR installer. The Horde PEAR installer has several advantages including a much easier installation/configuration process and installations may be updated at will immediately after new Horde versions are released. Scripts are provided which will automatically configure the Exim4U preferences, appearance features and file ownerships/permissions. Revised Documentation The following documents were revised: APPEARANCE, DEBIAN, MIGRATE, SPAMASSASSIN and WEBMAIL. Other The Exim4U web interface has been streamlined to be simpler and more consistent for improved usability. OpenProtect's rule channel has been removed from the recommended Spamassassin configuration since the OpenProtect channel is now obsolete. The spamreport script would not run properly on Debian/Ubuntu which is now fixed. A problem was discovered on Debian Squeeze related to an empty crypt field while logging into exim4u's web interface and was resolved with a modification to the crypt_password function in config/function.php. A bug was fixed in the Exim4U user interface that caused formatting problems in userchange.php Various other improvements and bug fixes. Credits Thomas CarriƩ designed and implemented all of the software for the Simple Mailing List module. Thanks Thomas! Neza Nice reported the spamreport bug, the obsolescence of the OpenProtect Spamassassin channel and contributed changes in the DEBIAN instruction file.
