The Inverse Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
SOGo 1.3.7. This is a minor release of SOGo which focuses on small new
features and improved stability over previous versions.
=== What is SOGo ===
SOGo is a free and modern scalable groupware server. It offers shared
calendars, address books and emails through your favorite Web browser or
by using a native client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning.
SOGo is standard-compliant and supports CalDAV, CardDAV, GroupDAV and
reuses existing IMAP, SMTP and database servers - making the solution
easy to deploy and interoperable with many applications.
SOGo features :
* Scalable architecture suitable for deployments from dozen to many
thousand users
* Rich Web-based interface that shares the look and feel, the features
and the data of Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning
* Improved integration with Mozilla Thunderbird and Lightning by using
the SOGo Connector and the SOGo Integrator
* Two-way synchronization support with any SyncML-capable devices
(BlackBerry, Palm, Windows CE, etc.) by using the Funambol SOGo Connector
* Excellent integration with Apple iCal 3/4 and Apple iPhone OS 3/4
and many more! SOGo and our connectors are completely free.
=== Changes from the previous release ===
New Features
* IMAP namespaces are now translated and the full name of the mailbox
owner is extracted under "Other Users"
* added the "authenticationFilter" parameter for SQL-based sources to
limit who can authenticate to a local SOGo instance
* added the "IMAPLoginFieldName" parameter in authentication sources
to specify a different value for IMAP authentication
* added support for resources like projectors, conference rooms and
more which allows SOGo to avoid double-booking of them and also allows
SOGo to automatically accept invitations for them
Enhancements
* the personal calendar in iCal is now placed at the very top
* the recipients selection works more like Thunderbird when composing
emails
* improved the documentation regarding groups in LDAP
* packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 6 are now available
* minor improvements to the webmail module
* minor improvements to the contacts web module
Bug Fixes
* selection problems with Chrome under OS X in the webmail interface
* crash when some events had no end date
