Roundcube Webmail 1.7-beta

pre-releaseone month ago

This is a beta release for the next major version 1.7 of Roundcube webmail.

With this milestone we introduce a few breaking changes, some new features, and bring full support for PHP 8.4.

Some noteworthy changes are:

  • Make public_html/ mandatory as entry-point for HTTP daemons, protecting all installations better.
  • Improve support for OAuth2 (e.g. supporting OpenID Connect discovery URLs).
  • A Mouse-over menu on the messages list with quick action icons.
  • Advanced mail search syntax with more possibilities – you can now use e.g. is:unread to only match unread messages. The test file has a list of implemented keywords.
  • Message parts of content-type text/markdown are now rendered to HTML (if they are designated for showing).
  • Add a 'php' logging driver, which passes all log statements to PHP's error_log handler, allowing to unify all log output.
  • Requires PHP v8.1 or newer.

Breaking Changes

  • Dropped support for PHP < 8.1.
  • Removed support for MS SQL Server and Oracle.
  • Make public_html/ entry-point mandatory, all static resources are served via static.php.
  • Removed apc cache driver (replaced by apcu cache driver).
  • Change smtp_log option default value to false.

This is a beta release and we recommend to test it on a separate environment.
Migrate existing configs with either the installto.sh or the update.sh scripts.

And don't forget to backup your data before installing it!
