The Roundcube Project News

The big change was carried out successfully and we’re back in business :-) The CVS repository and the tracker at SourceForge are finally closed. If you’d like to report a bug, please use our new Tracker at trac.roundcube.net. Also the annoying delays of the public CVS are past times. Anonymous checkouts from the new SVN repository can be done at any time and you’ll surely get the freshest data. Last but not least, we also have a Wiki available for all sorts of information about RoundCube. Check it out!

Due to system changes we removed the tracker for Bugs and Feature Requests from the site. The data will be moved to a new system hosted outside of SourceForge. Please revisit our website in a couple of days.

According to many requests we finally managed to set up a web-based forum for the RoundCube webmail project. Many thanks to Brett Patterson for managing this. The forum board can be found at roundcubeforum.net

Two more installation guides for RoundCube have been submitted. The first describes how to integrate RC on a cPanel system with a patch for taking over a current session. The second guide is useful for all who want to install or upgrade RC on Mac OS X.

The recently published beta-release came up with two ugly bugs. One prevented from saving the language selection in the user preferences and the other completely omitted mail headers when having no smtp server configured.

After a long period of development, we’re proud to announce the first official Beta release of our webmail client. Many bugfixes and some new features have found their way into this version. For a detailed list of improvements, please refer to the Changelog. Have fun!

After detecting excessive sending of mails on the demo site, we shut it down because it has been used to spread spam mails. Now it’s updated to the latest CVS version and sending mails is deactivated. You can compose and submit messages but they won’t be delivered to the recipients but copied to the Sent folder as usually.

Because our development mailing list was filled up with support requests and configuration questions, we decided to add a separate list for RoundCube USERS and keep the dev-list for discussions about ongoing development. If you have questions about the installation, configuration and use of RoundCube Webmail, please subscribe and post to [email protected]

This latest nightly release comes up with improved support for the Courier IMAP server and fixes problems with SSL connections. It also includes minor bug fixes and some visual enhancements.

This new release comes up with support for SQLite and PostgreSQL as well as translations in French, Italian, Spanish, Danish and Dutch. Thanks to all the translators for their work!
