I just did it as well.  Upgrade went smoother than it did when I went to 8.0 or 8.1

Having a current SA for Imail Professional, I dl'ed and upgraded to 8.2 and everything seems to be going smooth so far.  I am tailing the mail log now and it is still working, at least.  Declude is still working with it.  I went into Imail Admin and took a look around.  There's a min and max threads in the SMTP advanced properties now, testament to the new multithreaded SMTP engine.  There are new tabs in the IP-ful hosts for White Lists and Attachment Blocking.  New AntiSpam tabs include SPF, and Broken MIME Headers.  Naturally, I went in and disabled all of it, since IMgate and Declude are pretty handy at that sort of thing <grin>. 

 

Nothing that I saw was changed ifrom my original configuration.  Nothing that was disabled got magically re-enabled.   New features were enabled by default, except SPF and Attachment Blocking (was enabled, but all items were de-selected by default). 

The thing I was interested in was the Dictionary attack feature that breaks a connection after so many ERRs in a single connection.  I guess that isn't configurable, because there's no place in the GUI to set it.  Not that I need it, but it is really the thing that Imail needs most IMO, a defense against the dictionary attacks that forced me and many others to put up an IMgate box or use BlackIce or some other method of mitigating the extreme loads that Imail was experiencing when it was dealing with the dictionary attacks on its own.

Not I...rebuilding my Imail server does not sound like fun right now. I'll wait for the other guinea pigs...errr people to try it first.

I am waiting for someone also,  Ran the executable and looks like it creates a new directory structure.  Cancelled the install.
