Mail Server

• Added data rebuild external utitlity (MailServerReset.exe), and a popup menu option to reset/rebuild user mailboxes and entire domain groups;
• Mailbags and domains now support a * wildcard as a subdomain name, e.g., *.argosoft.com includes mail.argosoft.com, junk.argosoft.com, and so on...
• When bouncing messages to local addresses, using local delivery handler, which have been recently used for local delivery... It turned out, it was not working when sending bounced messages to local users, messages were going to the queue. This change will considerably reduce server load;
• Added a Sort by Email feature to distribution lists;

Web Interface

• No Changes;

Now we have a German translation of the web interface of Mail Server .NET! Thanks to Roland Bieri.

Web Interface

It is a major change, even though there are no significant changes in the "look and feel" of the web interface.

• Now all the communication with mail server is performed via a remoting object, which is hosted in the mail server.
  • It allows to run the mail server and the web interface on separate computers;
  • Eliminates access right problems to directories and databases;
  • Web interface no longer requires SQL Server 2005 or SQL Server Express on the computer where it runs;
• Something you've been asking for very long time! Now users can send out HTML messages
• Almost entire text that appears in the UI is placed in resource files, allowing easy localization of string resources;
• When going out, mail is relayd to mail server via SMTP, instead of going directly to outbox. It ensures, that all server plugins are called, and all server generated headers (including Domain Keys) are properly inserted;
• Server and Domain Group administration temporarily are not available. We will be releasing new separate web application, which will be doing that. Currently, you still can use old version of web interface for administering server via web, old and new version can co-exist peacefully;

Mail Server

• Now each account has No SMTP access flag, allowing to have "incoming only" accounts; Works only when SMTP authentication is enabled;
• Optimized the load of Edit Domain Group box. In earlier versions it was taking long time, because that calculation of the usage was being performed at the box load. Now calculation will be not perfomed, unless user clicks Calculate Usage link;

Following changes are related to the major change of the web interface (see above):

• Added remoting object, which is used to communicate with the web interface;
• Added Default Content-Type field to users, allowing them to select in which initial state is the Compose Mail message body editor: plain text or HTML;
• Now each user can select the name for their Inbox.  Useful when creating localized versions.
