News

We're pleased to announce the new release of both .NET and COM/ActiveX versions of MailBee e-mail components. The new release mainly focuses on security-related features, such as S/MIME.

As of version 9.8, MailSuite Pro for Linux is available as a native .DEB package which can be installed from our APT repository on pretty much any modern Ubuntu- or Debian-compatible Linux distribution. The same installation method is now available for Aurora Corporate all-in-one package as well.

Over the years, MailBee.NET Objects has been among bestsellers on ComponentSource, the world's leading online shop of developer tools.

We're excited to share the news that we have won Top 100 Publisher award in ComponentSource Awards 2024!

We are happy to announce the release of Aurora Corporate and WebMail Pro 9.7.6, the latest version of our web-based email and collaboration platform.

This version brings several improvements and enhancements to the product, as well as fixes some issues. Here are some of the highlights of this release:

New refactored contact storage model: We redesigned the way contacts are stored and managed in the Aurora products family, making it more efficient.

The time format setting is enhanced to match your preferences across the interface, including the calendar, the mail list, and the message view. You can now enjoy a consistent and personalized experience, whether you choose 12-hour or 24-hour format in the general settings.

In user settings, CardDAV links are displayed for all address books now.

This release also brings some minor bug fixes and improvements, such as the user interface enhancements, and updating the translations.

We hope you enjoy the new version of Afterlogic Aurora Corporate, and we appreciate your feedback and suggestions. You can download the latest version from our website, or contact us for any questions or issues.

The latest release of MailBee.NET Objects now officially supports .NET 8.0 and OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow for Microsoft 365 SMTP service.

SMTP was the last e-mail protocol for which Microsoft added full OAuth 2.0 support. Now you can fully supersede the discontinued login/password authentication with modern OAuth 2.0 for all e-mail protocols Microsoft (and MailBee.NET) supports - SMTP, IMAP, POP3, and EWS. MailBee.NET documentation and samples now reflect this change.

MailBee.NET Objects v12.4 also comes with the improved MIME message builder. This can be important in advanced cases when you modify and re-send existing e-mail messages with a complex structure. For instance, the new builder will honor the existing hierarchy of nested parts rather than building it from scratch.

Outlook Converter component can now extract more info from PST and MSG files.

We have just released Aurora Corporate and WebMail Pro v9.7.1. This release brings a large number of fixes and improvements.

If you manage your events and appointments on different platforms and devices, you will definitely enjoy the new ability to add invitations via a CalDAV client. Accepting invitations from Google Calendar has been improved as well. We've fixed various issues with grouping and exporting contacts. Aurora Corporate users will find calendar sharing thoroughly polished. Feel free to refer to changelog for more information on this release.

We take code and data security very seriously, and in this release, we have upgraded all the JavaScript libraries to eliminate any known vulnerabilities. We have also performed major overhaul of the code to make it compliant with PHPStan level 2 check; PHPStan is a static code analyzer and its use improves code stability.

One other important change is configuration files structure. So when upgrading from a previous version, make sure to run "Update configuration" in Database Settings screen of admin interface.

We're excited to share the news that we have won Top 100 Publisher award in ComponentSource Awards 2023!

We've just released Aurora Corporate and WebMail Pro v9.7.0. This new release is the result of extensive optimization and refactoring.

Aside from numerous bugfixes, we've also added a number of new features - public links to files can now have expiration lifetime, and Sieve filters support UTF-8 emojis correctly. If WebMail Pro is installed on cPanel, password reset feature can be used there now, and those who run the product on Plesk or DirectAdmin can now have public user signup enabled.

In Aurora Corporate, full integration with the latest version 5.x of RocketChat is now available, and you can adjust how chat usernames map to users' email addresses.

As always, the products are available in APT repository for automated installation on Debian, Ubuntu and compatible flavors of Linux. We have corrected the issues with DAV access there and revised the packages for compatibility with the latest OS releases.

Last but not least, we have ensured that the products work correctly on the latest PHP 8.2, that includes both web-based and DAV access.

Just like the recently released .NET version of MailBee components, ActiveX version is now also shipped with Office 365 OAuth 2.0 IMAP/POP3 sample which does not require end user's consent to access their mailbox (non-interactive case, also known as "Credentials Flow").

Once installed, you can find the corresponding sample and instructions in My Documents/MailBee Objects/Samples/OAuth2_VBScript folder.

Note that Office 365 only enabled OAuth 2.0 Credentials Flow for IMAP/POP3 but not for SMTP. SMTP still works the same old login/password way as before.

Dear MailBee.NET users,

As you may know, Office 365 will no longer support login/password authentication for IMAP/POP3 protocols. The clients must now use OAuth 2.0 instead.

The just released MailBee.NET Objects v12.3.1 now includes OAuth 2.0 for Office 365 Accounts (non-interactive mode) manual on how to set up Office 365 environment and get the access token using Microsoft Identity API and without the end user's interaction.

Previous versions of MailBee.NET Objects have already been shipped with OAuth 2.0 manuals for Office 365 but they provided only interactive flows where the end user must explicitly grant consent for your app to access their email. Now Office 365 gained support of Credentials Flow (Client Credentials Grant) which does not require the end user's participation, is simpler to use and works the same way for all kinds of applications.

Note that Office 365 supports Credentials Flow for IMAP/POP3 and EWS but not for SMTP. It's not known yet when SMTP support gets added there. Currently, SMTP operates as before, via login/password authentication.

A long-awaited feature just arrived to both WebMail Pro and Aurora Corporate - Dark theme, you can select it just like any other theme in your account settings.

Back in version 9.4 of Aurora Corporate, we've added a feature of sharing encrypted files with teammates. In order to use it, you would need to have OpenPGP key of the other user stored in your personal contacts. From now on, that's no longer necessary. Once the user adds their public key, it automatically gets stored in Team contacts, and everyone in the team can use it to share encrypted files with that user.

Also, now both Aurora Corporate and WebMail Pro support a way to unsubscribe from newsletters (if they have proper headers set) with a single click. If a newsletter message is designed for opting out, you can select "Unsubscribe" option from "..." menu when viewing a message.

On Websiteplanet.com pages, leaders of 5 email-focused companies were asked about the things they find particularly exciting these days around email, and what they might look like in the future.

Among them, this is what Alex Orlov, co-founder and CTO of AfterLogic had to say:

In our field, I see a growing interest in self-hosting. 10 years ago, we saw the global adoption of cloud storage, but now we see the pendulum swinging in the opposite direction. Compliance, local regulations, and willingness to control your data dictate this setback. Now we have hybrid clouds and private clouds of all sorts.

Demand for security and privacy-related technologies is rising exponentially. Incidents of massive data theft from top corporations or government institutions occur so often that they have become mundane.

Aviva Zacks of Safety Detectives with Alex Orlov, CTO and co-founder of Afterlogic, talk about Afterlogic Aurora, WebMail Pro, Afterlogic custom development services, security matters, and pandemic concerns.

https://www.safetydetectives.com/news/interview-alex-orlov-afterlogic-works/

Starting from this new version, WebMail Pro is no longer limited to one single Personal address book. Users can now create multiple address books and manage contacts in them individually.

And in our groupware and business mail platform Aurora Corporate, it's now possible to share an address book, be it Personal or one you create additionally, with other users or group, similarly to how you can share files. Additionally to Aurora Corporate, this also affects Aurora Files, an open-source self-hosted file cloud.

We're excited to announce the new release of Aurora Corporate and Aurora Files. This version adds a feature of sharing encrypted files with your teammates. You can even let your colleague reshare the file with other members of your team. Most importantly, the encryption takes place directly in the browser, and the server will never have access to your data.

As for other changes, we've made a number of nice improvements here and there, in particular, to event reminders.

To upgrade, see Upgrading instructions for Aurora Corporate or Aurora Files respectively.

New release of Aurora Corporate and Aurora Files v9.3.2 upgrades file sharing by adding the ability to share files with groups of users. Groups can be managed from admin interface, and if you wish to share file with all the users, Team group is already there, no need to add users to it manually.

You can read more on managing user groups and using the improved permissions system on this documentation page.

We're excited to share the news that we have won Top 100 Publisher award in ComponentSource Awards 2022!

The just released Aurora Corporate and Aurora Files v9.3 introduces all-new file sharing capability. It gives your users more control on setting permissions for files and folders they share with their teammates.

Keypoints:

• New permission to re-share files with other users
• New, easier-use sharing UI
• Files shared with me can now be found in Personal storage and organized in folders - helps if you have lots of shares

The just released WebMail Pro and Aurora Corporate v9.2 adds the highly anticipated feature - search over all mail folders.

Now when using Advanced search, users can select whether to search in the current folder, subfolders or in all visible folders of the email account.

This release also adds support for themes in the Chat module (Aurora Corporate only) and addresses a few minor issues in Calendar and Mail modules.

We've updated MailSuite Pro to the latest version 9.1.1, the update includes all the bugfixes earlier made for WebMail Pro 9.1.1. Also, we have updated all-in-one packages for Aurora Corporate, those packages include mailserver components with antispam and antivirus integration.

In addition to user signup implemented in v9 release, we now offer a sample for creating user accounts via API. This approach allows you to create new email accounts from your own application, regardless of what platform or programming language it uses.

We've just released the new versions of our email component libraries for .NET and COM/ActiveX, now with TLS 1.3 support.

With TLS 1.3, you can make sure that SSL connections with SMTP/IMAP/POP3 servers are established in the most secure way possible.

Note that TLS 1.3 support is still uncommon among the popular mail services so you'll need to check it with your particular email provider. Also, it can be missing or disabled in your OS or .NET platform.

We've just published a bugfix release of our WebMail and Aurora products. The update contains fixes and visual improvements for mail login form, password-related fix for two-factor authentication, and a number of other bugfixes. Also, XSS vulnerability in Files was closed, so if you're on a previous version, upgrade is advised.

We're excited to announce that Chat, one of the most anticipated features in Aurora, is finally here. The v9.1 of Aurora Corporate and Aurora Files now supports seamless integration with Rocket.Chat, the popular self-hosted open source chat solution.

https://afterlogic.com/docs/webmail-pro/changelog

Hi there!

We're excited to announce the release of the new major version v9 of Afterlogic Aurora Corporate (email groupware), Aurora Files (file storage and sharing), and WebMail Pro (webmail client).

We have just updated WebMail Pro PHP and Aurora Corporate to version 8.8.3.

This update contains a number of various bugfixes.

Have just released v8.8.2 of Aurora Corporate, with a number of fixes related to editing documents and other features:

https://afterlogic.com/aurora

Free Aurora Files edition was updated as well:

https://afterlogic.org/aurora-files

In just a month since introducing document editing in Aurora, we've released Aurora Corporate v8.8.1 which extends document editing capabilities even further. New features include:

• Document history - users can browse through older versions of the document and download them if desired.
• Editing older file formats (such as DOC, XLS in contrast to DOCX and XLSX). OnlyOffice which is used as the document editing engine cannot edit older file formats directly so Aurora now offers the ability to convert such documents into a modern format with a single click.

Over the years, MailBee.NET Objects has been among bestsellers on ComponentSource, the world's leading online shop of developer tools.

We're excited to share the news that we have won Top 100 Publisher award in ComponentSource Awards 2021!

Interview of Alex Orlov, co-founder and CTO at Afterlogic, with Websiteplanet on our products and services, history and mission:

https://www.websiteplanet.com/blog/afterlogic-interview/

The just released Aurora Corporate v8.8, a self-hosted business email and groupware suite, can now integrate with OnlyOffice to enable editing documents of modern Office formats via the web browser directly in Aurora.

Aurora Files, an open-source self-hosted file cloud, now supports this feature too.

We're glad to announce that your user can now attach their Gmail accounts as secondary mailboxes in WebMail Pro and Aurora Corporate via OAuth 2.0 rather than supplying their passwords.

To make this feature available for your users, you'll need to enable IMAP via OAuth 2.0 in WebMail Pro or Aurora Corporate and configure the OAuth 2.0 application in Google.

In future versions, we'll consider adding support of other OAuth 2.0 enabled IMAP providers, like Office 365. Please share your opinion if interested.

To upgrade, see Upgrading instructions for WebMail Pro or Aurora Corporate respectively. If you're upgrading from 8.x version, your license key remains the same.

We're excited to announce that the recent v8.6 update brings Unified Inbox support to both WebMail Pro and Aurora Corporate.

MailSuite Pro v8 is now available: https://afterlogic.com/mailsuite/linux-email-server

It's a complete bundle that includes WebMail Pro v8, mailserver components, webserver and database.

For Aurora Corporate, all-in-one package (the one which includes all the groupware scripts, SMTP and POP3/IMAP mail server, web server, antispam module, and MySQL compatible database) is available as well:

https://afterlogic.com/download/aurora

The new version of our ActiveX/COM edition of MailBee components brings the long-awaited OAuth 2.0 support, including VBScript samples for Gmail and Office 365.

MailBee Objects v9.3 now supports the XOAUTH2 authentication method in all e-mail components included in the library: SMTP, POP3, IMAP.

We also included VBScript samples and tutorials which you can use to grab the idea of how to implement OAuth 2.0 with Gmail and Office 365. Once installed the new version, you can find them in "My Documents/MailBee Objects/Samples/OAuth2_VBScript" folder.

We've just released MailBee.NET Objects v12.2, which now includes desktop and ASP.NET Core samples and tutorials which demonstrate how to enable OAuth 2.0 for IMAP and SMTP in Office 365 applications. As Microsoft is discontinuing Basic authentication support in Office 365 soon, it's crucial for your apps to migrate to the modern authentication.

Other changes include improvements of Outlook .MSG conversion, S/MIME verification of attached signatures, and ESMTP CRAM-MD5 authentication.

The just released MailBee.NET Objects v12.1 provides a number of enhancements targeted at improved compatibility with UWP and .NET Standard 2.x along with some other changes to the code and documentation.

Here is what's new:

• A set of S/MIME methods for encryption/decryption, signature verification, working with certificates in Windows-independent way (can be used in UWP and other non-Win32 environments).
• Separate UWP .NET Standard 2.0 edition for UWP apps targeting Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and newer. Has no Win32 dependencies and can be used in UWP Release builds published in Microsoft Store.
• Faster and more accurate parser of inline images in e-mails with embedded resources.
• DNS MX query parser now supports large UDP responses (greater than 512 bytes).
• Improved support of S/MIME signed/encrypted e-mails converted from Outlook .MSG files with Outlook Converter component.

Today we're announcing the new release of MailBee Objects, a set of COM/ActiveX components which implement SMTP, POP3, IMAP, SSL/TLS and S/MIME protocols.

In this release:

• Better IPv6 support.
• IMAP4 UIDPLUS extension support (IMAP4.UIDPlusResult property).
• PFX support in SMIME.AddRecipientCert method.
• Correct parsing of UTF-7-alike email addresses (with plus sign in them).
• SMIME.CSP property now actually has effect (earlier it wasn't actually in use).
• SHA-256 signing in now supported in S/MIME.
• The default encryption method in S/MIME is now 3DES (seems to be supported by most mail clients around) instead of a weaker RC4.
• S/MIME signatures now include full certificate chain.
• More accurate error handling in S/MIME.
• Documentation fixes.

We're excited to announce the next major release of MailBee.NET Objects, a set of mail components for .NET Framework, .NET Core, and UWP.

What's new in MailBee.NET Objects v12:

• .NET Core 2.0 / .NET Standard 2.0 edition revised and improved, including better support of .NET Core 2.1 and 2.2.
• .NET Standard 2.0 support in UWP. UWP apps targeting Windows 10 Fall Creators Update and newer can use the fully-functional .NET Standard 2.0 edition of MailBee.NET Objects.
• .NET Core 2.0 sample projects and tutorials added (UWP, console and ASP.NET Core). They feature OAuth 2.0 authentication against Google (Gmail.com) and Microsoft (Live.com, Outlook.com, Hotmail.com) providers along with sending and receiving e-mail using these providers.
• EWS is now supported for .NET Core (.NET Core 2.0+ required).
• EWS and PDF functionality was moved into friend assemblies. Because EWS and PDF are dependent on other libraries, this caused these libraries be included in the project even if they are not actually needed. Now if the app does not use PDF or EWS, the corresponding libraries will never be referenced, neither directly nor indirectly.
• Improved support of TLS 1.2, now it's selected automatically if supported by the server.
• The ability to automatically DKIM sign each outgoing mail message (MailMessage.SetDomainKeysSignOnSend property).
• S/MIME signatures are now time-stamped and include full certificate chain.
• And much more, check Version History for details.

Today, we're happy to announce Aurora Corporate v8 groupware suite is available for download as well as Live Demo evaluation.

Aurora Corporate offers premium webmail, shared calendars, global and shared contacts, and corporate files storage as an integrated package ready for deployment on your server. Full PHP source code is provided.

Key features:

• Webmail, compatible with virtually any existing IMAP server. Multiple accounts per user supported.
• Personal, shared and global (company-wide) contacts. Supports CardDAV clients, including iOS and macOS.
• Personal and shared calendars, tasks (new in v8). Supports CalDAV clients, including iOS and macOS.
• Personal and corporate files storage, with strong AES-256 encryption right in the browser (new in v8). See Paranoid Encryption to learn more.
• Facebook, Google Drive and Dropbox integration (authentication and file storage).
• Outlook Sync plugin to sync contacts and calendars with MS Outlook 2010/2013/2016.
• ActiveSync option to give select users the ability to sync their email, contacts and calendars using native iOS/Android clients and Outlook 2013/2016 (new in v8).
• Modular extensible platform with flexible EAV-based database structure makes it possible to add new functionality and data structures without breaking the existing code (new in v8).

We're excited to announce the release of Afterlogic ActiveServer - a separate product which enables ActiveSync support in WebMail Pro v8 (and upcoming Aurora v8).

ActiveServer acts as a premium add-on that can be enabled for subset of your WebMail Pro users which need ActiveSync functionality. ActiveSync provides these advantages:

• Syncs mail, calendars and contacts between WebMail Pro server and iOS/Android built-in clients, Outlook 2013+, etc.
• No extra apps or plugins need to be installed by the user on their device.
• Blocked ports are not a problem. Everything works via the standard HTTPS port.
• The very minimum of settings to configure by the user when adding an account (server name, email and password).
• Autodiscover option supported by mobile clients make it even easier (server name is not needed).

ActiveServer permits installation on both the same server as WebMail Pro or a separate server. It uses its own per-user licensing so that you can easily control which users have ActiveSync enabled.

ActiveServer is shipped as PHP source code which can be customized if needed and is available for 30-day free trial. To use ActiveServer, make sure you have the latest version of WebMail Pro installed (v8.1.15 or higher).

We're now rolling out the next major version of our flagship webmail app, WebMail Pro PHP. The new version provides a host of new features and, more importantly, internally the product has been rewritten from the ground up. Now it is based on what we call Aurora Platform architecture: the product includes Framework (the core) and a set of certain modules which constitute the functionality of WebMail Pro.

The modular architecture of v8 has some important enhancements as compared to the previous version. Just to name a few:

• Ease of customization.
• Persistence of customizations (and protection of your investments in them) between version upgrades.
• Ability to add or remove modules easily.
• No need to change database structure when you want to add more properties to objects or add new objects (so-called EAV model of data storage).

On a side note: WebMail Pro now has Notes. They are implemented the same way as on iOS mail client, as a Notes folder on IMAP server.

And we finally support Tasks in Calendar! That was one of the most anticipated features for a long time.

Another interesting new feature is Paranoid Encryption in Files module. Users can now utilize purely browser-based AES-256 encryption for files they keep in the their storage. All the encryption keys are stored only locally on the client device, the files' contents is encrypted/decrypted directly in the browser. This way even the server itself has no access to unencrypted content of the protected files. Users can now keep their private files without needing to trust the server or the channel between them and the server.

This version needs a license key upgrade, the keys now start with AU80 string. Please contact us at https://s.afterlogic.com/helpdesk/ to request your new key.

In case if your maintenance contract has already expired, you'll need to renew it first. This can be done at https://afterlogic.com/maintenance-renewal (or just drop us a message).

We're excited to announce that we've just released Aurora Files - a private file storage cloud application for you or your company. PHP-based. Open source. Free.

Aurora Files is built on our all-new Aurora modular platform. It can be extended with plugins and extra modules while many modules included in the product can be easily disabled or removed if needed. So, what's in the box?

• A multi-user system with the admin panel which lets you create or invite users. Users can log in via social networks like Facebook or Google as well.
• Personal (individual per user) and common (corporate) file storages.
• Users can also add their external storages (Google.Drive and Dropbox).
• Responsive web interface, available in a number of languages.
• iOS, Android and Windows native apps.
• Users can access their file storage via DAV protocol from any compatible desktop and mobile clients.
• Personal and corporate Contacts, with CardDAV sync.
• Users can upload files (within the specified quota), download, move, organize in folders or provide links to files and folders to share them with others.
• ... and they can be paranoid when it comes to privacy of their precious data. Aurora Files supports so-called Paranoid Encryption for files' content. Basically, it's a strong AES-256 encryption which occurs right in the browser. When Paranoid Encryption is on, file content is transmitted to the server in encrypted form only. Encryption keys are never transmitted to the server at all. Thus, even if the entire data from the server was stolen, your encrypted data is still safe: any data on the server cannot help decrypt encrypted files without the keys.

And for those who needs commercial-grade support and relief from AGPv3 limitations, we offer commercial subscription: https://afterlogic.org/aurora-files/commercial-subscription

The new major version of MailBee.NET Objects is here at last. It adds support of trending .NET Core and Universal Windows platforms as well as a new component, EWS, which lets your apps communicate with MS Exchange server via its native protocol.

MailBee.NET Objects now ships with a so-called .NET Standard compatible .DLL which supports .NET Core 1.0/1.1, Xamarin.Android, Xamarin.iOS. This includes ASP.NET Core as well.

We also added a UWP (UAP 10.0) compatible .DLL which lets you develop mail-enabled Universal Windows applications you can then run on any Windows platform.

To find out how to use MailBee.NET library for these platforms, refer to .NET Core Edition and and UWP Edition topics in the documentation.

EWS component (available for classic .NET Framework v3.5 and higher) is a wrapper for EWS Managed API which lets you send, receive and manage mail, contacts other kinds of Exchange items via web services. Not only that EWS is more flexible than IMAP/SMTP, EWS is often the only service enabled in Exchange and you may simply have no other choice but to use it instead of IMAP or SMTP. You can use it with both on-premises Exchange and Office 365.

Other cool features:

• International e-mail addresses (IDN domains).
• Mail parser can now embed inline attachments as base64 data in HTML body.
• Improved TLS auto-selection (up to TLS 1.2) with the new TlsAuto option.
• Secure direct send when MX server supports STARTTLS.
• Outlook 2016 .MSG format.
• Distribution lists in Outlook .PST files.
• Imap.GetSpecialFolder method to locate special folder likes Sent Items.
• And much more, check Version History for details.

This version needs a license key upgrade, the keys now start with MN110 string. Please contact us at https://s.afterlogic.com/helpdesk/ to request your new key.

In case if your maintenance contract has already expired, you'll need to renew it first. This can be done at https://afterlogic.com/maintenance-renewal (or just drop us a message).

We've just released the new version of MailBee.NET Objects library, packed with a bunch of new features and improvements. The most important are:

• async/await companions (in .NET 4.5 style) for the library's methods which are doing network or fiIe I/O. They are truly async inside out resulting in better scalability and responsivity of your applications. See WinForms .NET 4.5 and ASP.NET 2013 projects in My Documents\MailBee.NET Objects\Samples for async examples.
• .DLLs for Xamarin Mono, Android and iOS. Now you can utilize MailBee.NET Objects on Windows, Linux and most popular mobile platforms.
• Newly added TLS 1.1/1.2 support for SSL connections is crucial as TLS 1.0 is no longer considered strong.
• Improved network I/O performance.
• Bounce database in memory or single file (earlier, the representation in the form of a directory tree of XML files was the only option).
• See Version History to get the full list of changes.

The new version has been explicitly tested under Windows 10, Visual Studio 2015, .NET 4.6. Well, the older version should be OK too but now it's officially supported.

To upgrade to the new version, you'll need to update your license key. Please contact us at https://s.afterlogic.com/helpdesk/ to request your new key.

In case if your maintenance contract has already expired, you'll need to renew it first. This can be done at https://afterlogic.com/maintenance-renewal (or just drop us a message).

The just released new versions of Aurora business messaging platform and WebMail Pro PHP webmail client support 2-Step Verification, OAuth 2.0, external cloud storage and social network integration.

2-Step Verification (Two Factor Authentication, 2FA) lets your users guard access to their accounts with an extra step of entering a PIN code during the login process. The current implementation supports:

• Generic 2FA (where the PIN can be generated with Google Authentication and similar apps)
• Authy.com service which allows for centralized management of users and extra methods of PIN code delivery (e.g. SMS)
• More 2FA methods can be added with plugins

Aurora now lets you invite new users via their external e-mail addresses. The user gets an invitation via e-mail in their mail client, opens the link - and voila, they are Aurora user now! This also means e-mail module is now optional for Aurora - you can have users which only need non-mail services of Aurora (Contacts, Calendar, Files and so on).

Aurora user invitation mechanism also works via social networks. For instance, if you invited someuser@gmail.com, that user will be able to log in by simply clicking Google login button on Aurora login screen (provided that someuser@gmail.com is logged in Google on the current device). Facebook is also supported, and more social connectors can be added as plugins.

The users themselves can also enable authentication via social networks by linking an Aurora account to Google, Facebook or Twitter in External Services section of their settings. This feature is supported in WebMail Pro as well. Again, more social networks or any other OAuth 2.0 authorization services can be added with plugins.

Actually, External Services feature in Aurora and WebMail Pro is not just about authentication. For instance, the current implementation lets user add attachments from Google Drive and Dropbox. With custom plugins it'd even be possible to connect these cloud storages to Files module.

Other cool stuff in the new version:

• Built-in video player in Files module which lets users add and play back links from Vimeo, Youtube, SoundCloud
• "Share calendar" screen redesigned (Aurora only)
• CC/BCC in Helpdesk replies (Aurora only)
• Improved performance in IMAP accounts with lots of folders
• AJAX API and REST API improvements
• More callbacks for custom plugins
• Extended documentation

Now the links.

The new WebMail Pro release adds a lot of both end user features and functionality intended for developers. The most notable improvements include the new popup-based message compose screen and REST API.

Users can now minimize compose window and then return to editing at any time, with just a single click. Users which added multiple identities can now change the default identity - another method of improving productivity for those who routinely create lots of messages everyday.

New design of tooltips, VCF/CSV import of contacts from your desktop on Contacts screen and message threading enhancements are also worth mentioning. Overall performance of the user interface has been improved as well, especially opening a message in a new tab and working with accounts having large numbers of folders.

From the developer's and administrator's perspective, the key changes include REST API, revised login mechanism via POST query, the option to automatically redirect from HTTP to HTTPS, and account password change via LDAP.

REST API lets applications and web sites perform WebMail Pro account and domain management tasks from any location, with any programming language. POST login mechanism now includes error checking.

The plugin to change account password via LDAP can be useful if your users' accounts can be manipulated with LDAP queries. The plugin can be easily adapted for your particular LDAP schema and infrastructure. Authentication via LDAP plugin is available as well. Another cool plugin lets you add your custom content on the login screen.

If your server supports HTTPS, you can now force WebMail Pro to automatically redirect to HTTPS if the user entered plain HTTP URL to your installation. This is especially useful as users normally enter just a website name with no protocol specifier while the modern browsers still tend to try plain HTTP by default, even if HTTPS version of the same URL is available. To enable this, set <RedirectToHttps>On</RedirectToHttps> in settings.xml.

And there are more than a hundred of other fixes and improvements. Give it a try to see it in action!

This week, we updated MailBee Objects - the ActiveX version of our e-mail components suite.
MailBee Objects v9 adds support of a number of modern IMAP extensions, STATUS command, message sets. Besides IMAP, the new version delivers improved message parsing and attachment processing, Authenticode digital signatures, revised samples.

IMAP component now supports MOVE (moving messages between folders), SPECIAL-USE and CHILDREN (special folder flags), SORT (sorting search results). IMAP QUOTA extension can now deliver both allocated and actually used account space. Please note that these extensions can only be used if supported by your IMAP server.

Also, IMAP component now lets you use STATUS command to get the statistics for any folder, records UNSEEN and UIDNEXT updates sent by the server, provides more control on whether downloading messages must set Seen flag or not.

Message sets is another key feature of IMAP component. You can now request arbitrary sets of messages or envelopes to be processed by any request. This makes it faster to process messages filtered by certain criteria (e.g. you first make search query to get all unread messages, convert the resulting array into a message set and finally get envelopes for all unread messages as a single batch, no need to download each envelope via a separate command). When dealing with lots of messages, this may speed things up by an order of magnitude.

MIME and IMAP parser introduces AddressDelimiter property (Message.AddressDelimiter and Envelope.AddressDelimiter). This property makes it easier to split e-mail address strings into arrays of individual addresses or friendly names.

Attachment.Filename is now never empty. MailBee will autogenerate the name when it's missing in the message. New Attachment.FilenameAsIs property lets you find out the original filename (probably empty).

SMTP component now uses local host of the sending machine as EHLO argument. This may help with the SMTP servers which strictly check this value (anyway, you can still assign it manually).

Common changes over the entire package include:

• Signing of all DLLs and the installer with Authenticode digital signature.
• Samples now reside in My Documents (eliminates UAC issues with opening sample projects).
• Some VB6 samples revised and enhanced to support new functionality, like message sets.
• Misc. bugfixes to improve stability (mainly to SSL and Uploader functionality).
• Windows 8.1 Start Menu shortcuts added.

The new version requires the license key update (MBC800 keys changed to MBC900). Please contact us to upgrade your license key or renew maintenance contract if it's expired.

To download the new version, navigate to https://afterlogic.com/download/email-components. Be sure to uninstall the older version before installing the new one.

The recent WebMail Pro PHP release adds new ways to export and import data from and into the system, as well as new admin options and user interface improvements.

Users can now drag-n-drop ICS files in iCal format right into calendar, or use Import ICS file command for that. Another new option is VCF/vCard export and import in Contacts. Finally, it's now possible to drag-n-drop .EML files to have them added into the currently selected mail folder - a convenient method of loading data from desktop mail client.

New admin features include the ability to enable automatic redirect to HTTPS (RedirectToHttps option in settings.xml), X-Frame-Options in config.php to prevent clickjacking attacks, an option to set port number for external IMAP/SMTP server names (used for iOS profiles).

And as always, there are dozens of minor improvements, performance optimizations and bug fixes. You can see the changelog for more details.

The new WebMail Pro release lets your users view .doc, .docx, .xls, xlsx and other popular Microsoft file formats right in the browser. You can read more if interested.

Dynamic favicon is another cool feature of the new version. You'll never miss a new email with a red number of unseen messages right in the favicon, even if you have many browser tabs opened.

Other improvements include the new design of New Contact button, a setting to request association with mailto links, mail precaching optimizations, and miscellaneous bugfixes.

This week we released the new version of our flagship groupware and business e-mail platform, AfterLogic Aurora. It delivers:

• OpenPGP support
• Google Drive and Dropbox integration
• New skins
• Shared address book with CardDAV sync
• New ways to export and import contacts and calendar data
• Branding with your own logo
• Desktop notifications
• Download e-mail as PDF file
• Compose e-mail in RTL mode (for Arabic and Hebrew)

OpenPGP is fully client-side, no secure data ever transmitted to the server or elsewhere. PGP keys are saved in Local storage of the browser (private keys are also encrypted for better security), all the crypto is performed right in the browser either.

Google Drive and Dropbox integration lets users attach files from these cloud storage services when composing e-mails. And there is Files module which implements your own cloud storage of personal and corporate files. Files module can be used as the source of attachments just the same way.

It's also possible to pin a Google Docs file or any other URL to make it appear in Files as "document". This creates a shortcut which always delivers you the latest version of the file under that URL - the convenient way to work with documents together.

Shared address book lets users make popular contacts available for all teammates. While Global address book (Team) is populated automatically, Shared is edited by users.

New ways to work with contacts also include export and import of vCard/VCF files.

Calendar module now also supports export and import of all the data. The user can drag-n-drop iCal file to the grid to add all the events from there. Calendar properties menu provides commands to import and export event data by other means.

With desktop notifications, your users will never miss a new e-mail even if the currently opened window is not Aurora. Still, with the extended set of both colorful and ascetic skins they will likely spend more time in that window.

We also made hundreds of smaller improvements and fixes scattered everywhere across the system. And there is the updated documentation which now contains descriptions of many PHP API classes.

The summer is over and the new major WebMail Pro release is here now. OpenPGP, files storage, Google Drive and Dropbox integration, branding, ownCloud SSO, desktop notifications, and a number of new skins - these are the cool new features and enhancements that kept us busy. The new WebMail Pro version adds them all and also provides dozens of smaller improvements, features and fixes.

OpenPGP support enables a secure way of communication in the today's world where Big Brother is real. And very curious on what's in your e-mail. WebMail Pro addresses this by providing entirely browser-based PGP functionality which lets users exchange secure e-mail messages without the need to trust the mail server or any other gateway or transport between you and your party.

In short, neither decrypted messages nor PGP keys never transmitted to the server for encryption, decryption or storage purposes. It's all done client-side.

In contrast to the stern world of e-mail security, a new set of skins is full of fun and color. Hope your users will enjoy them! You can also put your own logo with the new Branding section in Admin Panel.

Files module is a new big set of functionality which makes WebMail Pro also a DAV server for cloud storage of users' files. They can drag-n-drop files from desktop, create folders, make public links to share files with their friends, attach files to an e-mail on Compose screen or send them via e-mail directly from Files module.

It's also now possible for users to connect their external cloud storages like Google Drive and Dropbox and attach files from there when composing e-mails.

Calendar now supports importing from .ICS files in iCalendar format. Just drag-n-drop a file from your desktop or use "Import ICS file" command in calendar properties.

Other end-user functions added to this version include desktop notifications on arrival of new messages, Show Full Headers, the ability to not only move but also copy messages using drag-n-drop (with Ctrl), layout improvements in both desktop and mobile version, enhanced support of Right-to-Left languages (Arabic and Hebrew), performance optimizations and dozens of misc. fixes.

As for admin-level and developer-level features, we now published a lot of new docs and API (check this at WebMail Pro Documentation), added user-activity logging, extended plugin repository. And if you are using a popular ownCloud platform, you can now take advantage of ownCloud Single Sign-On integration provided for the new WebMail Pro.

Feel free to give it a try!

We've just released WebMail Pro v7.3 which now includes long-awaited mobile version targeted at smartphone users. Other improvements include Advanced Search dropdown which can be used to fine-tune your search query and find attachments.

Importance status of e-mail message is now displayed in the message list.

The plugin ecosystem around WebMail Pro continues to grow as well.

With our new winmail.dat plugin, users will be able to open MS-TNEF (winmail.dat) attachments created by MS Outlook and MS Exchange.
br / New zip plugin enables opening zip attachments right in the browser. Both winmail.dat and zip plugins are implemented via a set of new hooks which let you develop similar plugins to open other file container formats of your choice.

Auto-save of composed messages was improved in a number of ways. Now we don't do autosave if nothing has changed since the last time it occurred - this saves traffic and server resources. Also, we added auto-save ability for Quick Reply mode.

Recurring events in calendar now look better and easier to distinguish from one-time events.

We also added experimental support for PostgreSQL database backend as alternative to MySQL and welcome your comments on this.

Besides that, the new version adds more than a hundred of bug fixes and small improvements.

Sounds interesting? Here you go!

It's been a while since last update of MailBee.NET Objects but it was worth waiting for. This release adds a ton of improvements including a new component for bulk e-mail validation, better support of the latest Windows versions like 8.1, 64-bit systems, and .NET 4.0/4.5/4.5.1 Framework, OAuth 2.0, Visual Studio 2013 compatibility, and much more. First of all, meet MailBee.NET Address Validator, a high-performance, massively multi-threaded, database-aware .NET component which can enable your applications to verify e-mail addresses for valid syntax, for domain name existence, DNS MX accuracy, and SMTP availibility. It can be purchased separately or as part of the full MailBee.NET Objects bundle. A big brother of Address Validator, SMTP component, can now run mail merge over SQL Server database enabling efficient and memory-conservative processing of very big datasets. With IMAP component, you can now explicitly tell the server not to set IMAP Seen flag when downloading full messages. A number of other enhancements have been applied to the particular components (especially Outlook .PST reader and .MSG converter), but the most important updates cover the entire library. Just to name a few:

• This release introduces support of SASL XOAUTH2 authentication for all e-mail protocols. You can now check or send e-mail at Gmail and other OAuth 2.0 enabled services without ever knowing the user's password.
• Registry licensing no longer causes issues when MailBee is being used within 32-bit process on 64-bit Windows. Generally, the licensing mechanism now requires much less attention and just lets you focus on the task you're doing.
• Countless improvements to the MIME parser and builder, especially related to S/MIME, international e-mails, and special characters processing (like quoted strings in e-mail headers).
• Network related changes, including better IPv6 support, ability to set .Connect timeout, more accurate validation of certificates during SSL connections.

In addition to the codebase changes, this release delivers new samples, better installer which supports Windows 8.1 (and any other systems without .NET 2.0/3.5), revised documentation. Visual Studio Integrated Documentation is now offered for 2010 and 2012 versions. A companion of SMTP component, MailBee.NET Queue bulk mail delivery agent has been updated as well and now supports Windows 8.1, Visual Studio 2013, .NET 4.0/4.5/4.5.1, UAC, and 64-bit systems. And there is better logging, exception handling, bounce e-mail processing, and so on. To read more on the new features and improvements of this release, you can check Version History. Note that MailBee.NET Objects V8 uses the new MN800 format of license keys. If you have the valid maintenance contract, please contact us to get your free license key update. Otherwise, you'll need to renew it at https://afterlogic.com/maintenance-renewal page. To download the new version, visit https://afterlogic.com/download/net-email-components Have questions?

The new release of ActiveX version of MailBee components accumulates all the bugfixes and improvements applied to the codebase during last year, and has Windows 8/8.1 compatible installer. The new version works much better with quoted strings and international characters in encoded headers for both IMAP4's structured responses and normal MIME messages (the latter applies to both IMAP4 and POP3). A number of other improvements have been applied to the MIME parser, including a new mode of saving HTML e-mails with embedded pictures (keeps related files' filenames close to originals but adds suffixes to avoid overwriting when multiple files have the same filename). All e-mail components (SMTP, IMAP4, POP3) now better process disconnection issues and don't claim errors unless necessary. Finally, there are some documentation and readme fixes. To upgrade, uninstall the current version and get the new version at: https://afterlogic.com/download/email-components This version will work with your existing MailBee Objects V8 key. Still, you should have the valid maintenance contract to be entitled to this update. Please contact us if unsure of that. Need help? Please post your inquiry at: https://s.afterlogic.com/helpdesk/

The new WebMail Pro finally supports grouping mails in conversations, while other important improvements include a completely new and feature-rich Calendar module. If your IMAP server supports THREAD extension, WebMail Pro will automatically join related e-mails into conversations when displaying message list. However, you can disable this feature on system or per-user level if your mail server is not fast enough on large mailboxes. Another cool feature is Starred folder. Actually, it's not a real folder but a filter applied to Inbox and displaying only e-mails which are marked with a star. But the new calendar is even cooler. This is the thing which we're really proud of. And it now lets users download their calendars as .ics file, add them to CalDAV clients, or enable public access to their calendars ("everyone with the link" approach). Try it and feel free to let us know what you think! Besides that, there is a ton of other fixes and enhancements. Performance improvements, bug fixes, better search, user interface adjustments here and there across the entire system.

In this release of MailBee Objects ActiveX edition we added the support of Content-Location header, the ability to send e-mails to multiple recipients even in case if some recipients get rejected by the SMTP server, and e-mail address validation improvements. Some e-mails with embedded pictures use Content-Location header instead of Content-ID to refer these pictures in the HMTL message body. Now MailBee Objects library supports this. With the new AllowRefusedRecipients property and GetAcceptedRecipients/GetRefusedRecipients methods SMTP object is now enabled to send multi-recipient e-mails which may have some recipients invalid. Message.ValidateEmailAddress method now correctly validates the e-mail addresses like sarah.o'connor@domain.com (with apostrophe) and some others. A few miscellaneous improvements and fixes to the MIME parser have been added as well.

The new version of WebMail Pro PHP script cuts the price down and finally lets your mobile users stay in sync for all the data, including mail, calendar, and contacts. Use native apps of your iPhone or iPad to work with the same data you see in the browser! With IMAP for mail, CalDAV for calendar, and newly added CardDAV for contacts and groups, WebMail Pro lets you keep everything synced all the time. Any device or application which supports CalDAV, CardDAV or IMAP protocols can be used, including iPhone and iPad. With iOS devices, the user doesn't even need to know all the access details for every kind of account (be it mail, calendar, or address book). WebMail Pro can deliver all the settings right into the device automatically, thanks to the full iOS profile support in the new WebMail Pro. When an iPhone or iPad user logs in WebMail Pro for the first time, they're prompted to get their profile with a single click. Even if the user declines at that moment, they'll always find this option in Mobile Settings. Can't be easier. Besides that, there's a great deal of miscellaneous fixes and improvements. WebMail Pro is now faster, more accurate, and consumes less resources. And it's a hell of a lot LESS expensive than before! With the new per-server licenses for cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin servers, it makes the provider's life a lot easier. No need to count each and every user and worry about reaching mailboxes number limits imposed by user-count based licenses. Such licenses, however, are still available for those who are interested, but at much lower prices. You can check the new pricing at: https://afterlogic.com/purchase/webmail-pro Note that due to a new contacts backend, the existing contacts from WebMail Pro v6.4 won't appear in the new version until you run the migration script. The details are in the upgrading instructions.

The new version uses the same license key as the previous one. For upgrading instructions, please see: WebMail Pro upgrading instructions Would like to learn more?

The new version of MailBee Objects ActiveX library has been rewritten in many areas, including the full Unicode support. Writing applications which support different languages and character sets has never been easier. Other improvements include much better S/MIME support, message ranges in POP3, tracking all the data traffic during SMTP, IMAP4, and POP3 sessions, accurate modification of existing messages (for re-sending or forwarding), improved and new code samples (especially for Visual C++). Note that you may need to slightly adjust the code of your existing applications as some methods got more parameters (this is usually a concern if your development language does not support optional parameters). Delphi is an example. Pay special attention to POP3.RetrieveHeaders method as its parameters signature has changed significantly. The new version has new license keys. You can request your updated license key at https://s.afterlogic.com/helpdesk/ (assumes you have a valid maintenance contract). To download the new version, click https://afterlogic.com/download/email-components. Note that if you earlier downloaded MailBee Objects V8 beta, you can keep using it. No issues has been reported for that version and now it's officially called the production version.

The new version of MailBee.NET Objects offers improved support of Gmail and Yahoo, better parsing of Outlook .MSG and .PST files, and a number of misc. fixes to MIME parser and DKIM. MailBee.NET Objects now supports Gmail-specific IMAP extensions like thread ID, message ID, message labels. It lets you perform message search with Google syntax, add and remove message labels. These are capabilities defined by https://developers.google.com/google-apps/gmail/imap_extensions document. Direct send without a relay server is now possible even if the system's DNS servers are not available, thanks to the root DNS servers provided by Google. See DnsAutodetectOptions.RootServers value for details. When connecting to Yahoo SMTP/IMAP/POP3 servers, MailBee.NET Objects by default selects the appropriate SSL modes and ports.

The detailed and well-thought documentation for a software library is no less important than the code itself. With the new MailBee.NET Objects release, we started making the thorough guide of all the features offered by the library.

As for new features, vCard support is the most important one. You can create new and parse existing vCard attachments and .VCF files, with support of vCard 2.1 and 3.0 versions, .BMP and .JPG photos, international charsets and non-Latin characters.

vCard processor comes as a separate .DLL (although it's installed by MailBee.NET Objects setup program). It's a free add-on, moreover, the source code is available! Read more at ICalVCard page.

Other enhancements:

• improved parser and builder of Outlook .MSG files
• improved reader of Outlook .PST files

Warning! Before upgrading to the new version, be sure you've read and understood the statement below. We're releasing a new version of our webmail server products. Please notice that we've changed the way these products work to better meet the market demand and most clients' expectations. Important. The new webmail version no longer includes any collaboration-related features such as Global Address Book, shared calendars and appointments with attendees. Personal address books and personal calendars are still available. All the collaboration-related functionality is moved into another product which will be announced soon. The new product will be specially tuned for the needs of business customers. Please do not upgrade to the new version in case if you're using collaborative features. They won't work with the new version. Also, due to a new calendar backend, the existing calendar data will not be accessible in the new version (even for personal calendars). Later, we'll offer some migration procedures for clients which need collaborative features or the access to their old calendar data. We hope the new positioning of our products will meet the demands of the users more closely and make our solutions more comfortable and efficient for both our customers and their end users. And we're always open to your suggestions. What else is new:

• built-in CalDAV support enables mobile sync of calendars on iPhone and all other devices and applications which support CalDAV protocol
• support of iOS profiles to easily get your e-mail and calendar account imported on your iOS device like iPhone
• tons of small but nice fixes and improvements

The new version uses the same license key as the previous one. For upgrading instructions, please see: WebMail Pro upgrading instructions Would like to learn more?

Today, we released a new version of our webmail server offerings: WebMail Pro - standalone webmail script for existing mail server, and MailSuite Pro Linux - webmail script bundled with an SMTP/IMAP/POP3 MTA, anti-spam and anti-virus for a complete solution. WebMail Pro got the improved plugin system which lets you implement 'change account password' functionality for your mail server (POPPASSD plugin is supplied out-of-box), let users configure forwarding, vacation message (auto-resonder), and so on, without digging into deep internals of the core webmail script. Also, if your mail server supports Sieve filters, you can use Sieve to set forwarding and vacation messages. To configure Sieve filters, WebMail Pro uses ManageSieve protocol. If your server supports Sieve filters but not ManageSieve protocol, you can install AfterLogic ManageSieve Server to fill the gap. MailSuite Pro Linux already includes ManageSieve Server. All of the fixes and improvements made for WebMail Pro are also available within MailSuite Pro Linux bundle. The new version uses the same license key as the previous one.

The latest version of MailBee Objects (ActiveX edition) now supports both IPv4 and IPv6, ESMTP Delivery Status Notifications, non-standard IMAP flags, and much more. To switch between IPv6 or IPv4, you don't need to set any properties. Just use any IPv6 address (like "::1") the same way you do with IPv4 addresses. MailBee will automatically pick the appropriate connection function based on the address format. SMTP component now autodetects if STARTTLS is supported and switches the connection on port 587 to SSL mode only if STARTTLS is here. Also, SMTP component checks if DSN extension is available on the server, and lets you specify Delivery Status Notification settings if it is. With IMAP component you can now use non-standard IMAP message flags, like \Starred, $Spam or any other flags used by your server. MIME parser has been improved in many ways, including the ability to load e-mails from memory and dealing with e-mails consisting of multiple plain-text or HTML parts (like those created by Apple Mail). Also, we added a number of methods and events to POP3 and IMAP components which let you more precisely control the data receiving progress, such as track all the data being received and parse e-mails in real-time, not waiting for the entire block of e-mails to be received. For instance, this is important when you download a bunch of e-mails via a single IMAP operation and want to display the first email in the bunch not waiting until the last data block in the bunch is received.

The latest release of MailBee.NET Objects adds PDF Converter component you can use to create PDF invoices, quotes, and other table-based documents from their HTML version.

The produced PDF documents can be sent as email attachments, saved to disk or stream for further processing by other applications. You can also tweak and fine-tune the process of converting HTML to PDF with a number of callback methods (delegates in C#), adjusting colors, alignment, fonts, emitting extra elements, and so on. This lets you perform conversion of HTML documents which utilize complex formatting and CSS.

MailBee.NET PDF Converter can also be purchased separately. You can read more at:
https://afterlogic.com/mailbee-net/pdf-converter

Other improvements include native build of MailBee.NET.dll for .NET 4.0, a number of fixes to MIME, .PST, .MSG parser and builder, and S/MIME.

We've just released a new version of MailBee.NET Objects packed with a number of cool features such as the full iCal support and OpenID + OAuth hybrid authorization, amongst lots of other improvements and fixes.

OpenID + OAuth hybrid authorization makes it possible to work with e-mail of a user without requiring them to enter their e-mail address and password. The user just clicks a button to grant your application the access to their e-mails (but your application still does not know the e-mail account password). Simple and secure.

iCal support lets you create or respond to events, meeting requests, invite attendees, set reminders, and so on.

IMAP module now supports AllMail and Starred flags (invented by Gmail), makes complex search easier with new helper methods in ImapUtils class, and also provides helper methods to work with collections of UIDs and ordinal message numbers.

Other fixes apply to the authentication mechanism, MIME and S/MIME functionality, SSL certificates, Outlook .MSG converter and .PST reader.

The Developer's Guide now includes IMAP/POP3, Outlook, iCal/vCard topics. And check out our new ASP.NET samples! We've put a lot of effort into them...

The latest MailBee.NET Objects release allows you to greatly speed up downloading e-mails in your IMAP applications, makes it easier to use DKIM and DomainKeys, can extract RTF body from winmail.dat attachments, and more.

With Imap.DownloadEnvelopesEx method, you can join multiple IMAP commands for downloading message data in a single batch. The pipelined execution of commands may result in 1000% performance boost, and there is no typo here! It's especially efficient when you download text body of multiple e-mails without downloading entire messages.

Also, IMAP and POP3 components now support negative message indexes. For instance, you can easily access the last e-mail in the folder with -1 index.

Many improvements were made to Outlook .MSG, .PST and TNEF parsers. As an example, you can now extract RTF message body from MS-TNEF (winmail.dat attachment).

DKIM signing and verification made easier with MailMessage.DomainKeysSign and MailMessage.DomainKeysVerify methods. You also no longer need Smtp license to verify DKIM signatures and can sign with DKIM during mail merge.

Other improvements include:

• MailMessage.Parser.FixCrLf property to deal with e-mails not having the correct CrLf sequence at the end of each body line
• XOAUTH and IMAP XLIST fixes (important for Gmail users)
• better and user-controlled handling of shared access to spam and non-spam databases in AntiSpam component
• added new bounced e-mail formats

The latest update of MailBee.NET Queue changes its status from Beta to Release.

The new version of MailBee.NET Objects provides some major improvements to Outlook .PST reader, better support of .NET Compact Framework, besides dozens of miscellaneous improvements and fixes across the entire library.

Outlook .PST reader can now extract any particular item based on its .PST ID numeric value. This way you can have direct access to any single item in the file. Other improvments include the rewritten parsing engine, new handy properties to get filesystem-safe names of .PST folders and unique IDs of any items. Last but not least is the support of 32-bit .PST files produced by older versions of Outlook.

Many types and collections in SmtpMail namespace were made Serializable (SmtpServer, SmtpServerCollection, DnsServer, DnsServerCollection) so you can easily store SMTP settings in an .XML file. This is widely used in the brand new MailBee.NET Queue application which is capable of background sending large volumes of e-mails. The project is currently "beta" and shipped as a C# source code.

Today, we announce the most significant update of ActiveX version of MailBee components for the last years.

• plain NTLM authentication rewritten from the ground up to support MS Exchange 2007 and above
• Integrated Windows Authentication mode of GSSAPI/NTLM, GSSAPI/Kerberos and plain NTLM methods to log in using the current Windows user context
• XLIST IMAP extension to support special folder flags like Sent, Drafts or Trash

Ergonomic 3-pane view layout optimized for wide-screen displays allows for better webmail experience while the Outlook sync plugin lets you keep working with your events and contacts when you're not using the webmail. Outlook sync was rewritten from the ground up and now supports two-way synchronization of both contacts and calendar events.

MailSuite Pro for Linux adds another way of synchronizing your contacts and calendar - via SyncML. The installer can automatically download and setup Funambol SyncML server, providing mobile sync to your users which have SyncML-enabled devices. Stand-alone WebMail Pro PHP can also be configured to enable mobile sync via Funambol.

Funambol, being the world's leader in providing unified mobile sync solutions, aims to add SyncML capabilities to a widest variety of mobile handsets. Even if your device does not support SyncML out-of-box, the mobile sync client for it may be freely available from Funambol. This includes contacts/calendars sync for BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Symbian as well as contacts sync for iPhone and Android.

With the LDAP authentication mechanism in MailSuite Pro for Linux, you no longer have to register each user in MailSuite Pro admin panel if the user is already available in your LDAP directory, be it OpenLDAP server, Active Directory, or any other LDAP storage. MailSuite Pro will automatically create a mailbox if the username/password specified during the login denotes a valid user on the LDAP server.

Windows/ASP.NET version specific improvements include significantly reduced memory consumption during processing large e-mails (results in less frequent application pool recycles and better performance).

The new version utilizes new license keys so make sure you have obtained your new key by logging in our HelpDesk with the e-mail address you used to purchase the product. You'll need to create a ticket if you never accessed the HelpDesk before (or used another e-mail address for that).

We have just released a new major version of MailBee.NET Objects which adds a lot of important features and improvements through the entire library. This includes a memory-efficient mail engine, support of Outlook .PST format, FIPS compliance and other enhancements.

The new version comes with the rewritten mail engine which parses and builds e-mail messages and SMTP/POP3/IMAP requests and responses. The new engine provides better performance and consumes 3-5 times less memory during conversations with mail servers and processing e-mails. We also added some optimization techniques you can use in your applications. These optimizations make it possible to send and receive several hundred megabytes e-mails on 1GB RAM systems.

Outlook component can now process both .MSG and .PST files. New PstReader class allows you to traverse through the folder tree of a .PST file or get the entire tree as a flat list, extract any items like messages, contacts or appointments, access their properties or convert these items into MailMessage objects. PstReader processes items one-by-one so that the entire .PST file or stream never gets loaded in memory completely. This makes it possible to read even very large .PST files containing many thousands of items.

FIPS compliance means you can now use MailBee.NET Objects in the systems which do not allow using FIPS-incompliant security algorithms like MD5. This is especially important for government organizations, banking and military structures.

Other enhancements include better compatibility with MS Exchange 2010, new overloads of Smtp.AddJob method which allow you to implement background relaying e-mails from previously created .EML files, new bounced e-mail formats and Message Disposition Notifications, Serializable exceptions, miscellaneous fixes in the code and the documentation.

You can download the new version at:
https://afterlogic.com/download/net-email-components

The new version uses new license keys which are no longer MD5-based. You can get your updated license key through our HelpDesk system (be sure to specify the e-mail address you used to purchase or evaluate the product):

We're excited to let you know that so long awaited auto-check mail and global address book features are now available for your WebMail Pro and MailSuite Pro users.

Automatic mail check can poll the server for new mail every few minutes so that you don't need to click Check Mail manually. You can set the polling interval from 1 minute to Never.

Global address book is configured by the admin and can be both domain-level and system-level. When this feature is off, users see only their own contacts when using e-mail address auto-complete feature on Compose Message screen. With the domain-level address book enabled, this list also includes e-mail addresses of all the users in the domain. With the system-level address book, the list includes e-mail addresses of all the users registered in WebMail Pro MailSuite Pro database.

Also, if you host multiple mail domains with a single MailSuite Pro or WebMail Pro installation, you can create domain-level administrators and delegate them a subset of admin privileges to control users in certain domains. For instance, if you're a hosting provider, you can use this sub-admins feature to let customers manage users in their domains relieving your staff from these routine operations.

The upgrade to the latest version 4.10 is free for all registered users of previous versions of WebMail Pro PHP/ASP.NET and MailSuite Pro Linux/Windows.

DMZ Corp and AfterLogic Corporation have entered into a mutual partnership agreement, enabling DMZ Corp to offer AfterLogic's products and services in Japan and elsewhere. DMZ Corp assisted with creating a Japanese language web site http://jp.afterlogic.com and maintains a Japanese language translation for AfterLogic WebMail Pro, as well as a Japanese language product page http://webmail.dmz.co.jp for this application.

Companies located in Japan are able to purchase AfterLogic products through an authorized local channel, and may also obtain pre-sales and post-sales support from an established Japanese entity. AfterLogic is excited to welcome DMZ Corp as our new partner, and we look forward to working with DMZ staff in serving and expanding the Japanese market.

The latest update of ActiveX version of MailBee components introduces quite a few improvements across the library itself and the supporting code samples.

To start with, the new version is much faster on downloading or uploading large e-mails over IMAP.

Enhanced international support allows you to encode attachment filenames when composing e-mails and correctly process the charset information in HTML bodies of incoming or outgoing e-mails. This is especially useful when dealing with UTF-8 charset.

There are several new and updated sample projects for Delphi (covering SMTP, POP3, IMAP and SSL) which highlight using of many features of MailBee Objects. Delphi users should certainly take a look at the new samples!

Visual Basic 6 samples have also been updated with SSL/Gmail support.

The full list of the changes can be found at:
https://afterlogic.com/mailbee/docs/#History.htm

The upgrade is free. If you update your installation, you can continue using MailBee Objects bundle (or those components you have licensed) with your existing license key.

This time, we have updated all the components within MailBee.NET Objects bundle. The most anticipated changes include the automatic detection of port number and SSL settings for well-known mail services (like gmail.com) and the support of DKIM anti-spam technology.

Automatic SSL/port detection makes it easier for the programmer to connect to SSL-only mail services like gmail.com, live.com and other servers operating on SSL ports (465 and 587 for SMTP, 993 for IMAP, 995 for POP3).

DKIM is a newer version of DomainKeys anti-spam technology used by gmail.com, yahoo.com and other leading e-mail service providers. Signing an e-mail with secure DomainKeys/DKIM signatures ensures the e-mail was actually sent from the declared e-mail address. From now on, MailBee.NET Security package supports verification and creation of both classic DomainKeys and DKIM signatures.

Outlook Message Converter component now extracts more dates from .MSG data (including dates when the message was sent and received), provides improved support of streams and Unicode, the automatic RTF-to-HTML and HTML-to-RTF conversion.

BayesFilter component can now use streams to load and save the database of spam and non-spam tokens. This allows the application to store the database not only in files but in any other container like XML or SQL database.

With the new version of WebMail Pro, you can access your mail and calendar from your mobile device and synchronize events with MS Outlook calendar.

The PDA version of WebMail Pro provides simple HTML layout optimized for small-resolution screens and does not require AJAX or JavaScript support from the browser.

Outlook Sync Add-In integrates with your Outlook 2003 or 2007 and allows you to easily synchronize events between your Outlook and WebMail Pro calendars.

Other improvements of WebMail Pro v4.8 include Identities (the drop-down list of your e-mail accounts instead of editable From: field) and further increased IMAP performance.

XMail Server Pro, the bundle of WebMail Pro with an SMTP/POP3/IMAP mail server, has also been updated. XMail Server Pro v4.8 includes the latest version of WebMail Pro and provides Archiving support.

The upgrade to the latest version is free for all registered users of previous versions of WebMail Pro and XMail Server Pro.

Nowadays IMAP IDLE extension became very popular for mobile sync and other purposes. Previously, only MailBee.NET Objects supported IDLE. With the new release, you can now take advantage of this feature in ActiveX version of MailBee components as well.

The new release also supports IMAP QUOTA (used to determine the mailbox size) and can better tolerate responses from not-well written IMAP servers (smart parsing).

It also contains a number of other improvements (see History in the documentation for the full list), we recommend upgrading to this version to all the users of ActiveX components of MailBee Objects family. Your existing license key will work with the new version.

Outlook .MSG conversion functionality recently introduced in MailBee.NET Objects brought a lot of useful feedback and feature requests from our users. We decided to put the focus on it in the new release.

The new version adds mostly anticipated Unicode support which allows using international characters in .MSG files. It can also convert .MSG files embedded into other .MSG's and read Outlook-specific e-mail address formats.

Using AntiSpam, IMAP and POP3 components can now be easier with the new WinForms sample project we included into the installation package. It's a real-world sample of how you can train and use Bayesian spam filter over POP3, IMAP and local folders. It also employs many good practices of handling exceptions, event processing and keeping the user interface responsive all the time. If you do not yet have this sample, you can get it with the new version.

This is to inform you that the current week is the last one when MailBee.NET and MailBee products are sold at the current prices.

From 1 Sep 2009, AfterLogic will change licensing structure and raise prices on MailBee.NET and MailBee products. Yet another reason to make your purchase until that date, in addition to the current 25% discount.

The new licensing structure for these products is simpler and contains Developer licenses only (Single Developer, 4 Developers Team, Developer Site). All of these licenses support royalty-free distribution.

The updated list of MailBee.NET and MailBee product prices which will take effect from 1 Sep 2009:

	1 Developer	4 Developers Team	Unlimited Developer Site
MailBee.NET Objects	$399	$799	$1999
MailBee.NET Component *	$199	$399	$999
MailBee Objects	$199	$399	$799
MailBee ActiveX Component **	$99	$199	$399
MailBee Message Queue	$99	$199	$399

All the existing licenses bought before 1 Sep 2009 remain valid. No action is required on your part to have the license prolonged.

Faster, Higher, Stronger. We believe this Olympic slogan is the best way to get the point of the new WebMail Pro.

IMAP module has been rewritten to achieve much better performance, consume less resources and decrease load on your IMAP server. This results in better response times of the user interface and increased scalability of the entire system.

We also extended Manage IMAP Folders feature with the ability to select which folder on your IMAP server should be used as Sent Items, Drafts or Trash (earlier, these folders were hard-coded). This is especially useful for non-English users which typically have IMAP accounts with international folder names.

As usually, we also made a number of minor improvements and end-user interface fixes (like Request Read Confirmation when you compose a message).

Last but not least is the improved multi-domain capability. If you host multiple domains, you can now configure a single WebMail Pro installation to offer webmail access for users from different domains, where each domain has its own default settings, skin and login URL.

1. If you are already using WebMail Pro and IMAP, the new version is a "must" upgrade for you.

2. If you're still thinking of trying WebMail Pro and your server is running cPanel, it's the best time to start your trial now.

Why are we so confident about the first point? Because IMAP support in WebMail Pro now includes quotas for automatic mailbox size management, direct search on IMAP server, and new easy-to-use approach to deleting e-mails.

And what's so special in cPanel support? Because it's now really easy for the server admin to add WebMail Pro into the list of applications available for installation by domain admins. And, for the domain admin, it's just a matter of typing URL and license key for the application in order to have it installed for the particular domain.

However, even if you're not using IMAP or cPanel, you can find quite a few nice improvements in the new version, including Replied/Forwarded flags for messages, improved Admin Panel, cool UI language selector, export to iCal in Calendar, and more.

We're happy to say that it has finally happened: ActiveX version of MailBee components now includes the 64-bit version.

Although most new projects for Windows are using .NET, there are lots of legacy projects developed for the classic ASP/ActiveX platform that still exist and need to successfully evolve toward the 64-bit platforms.

You can now protect your investments in the legacy MailBee ASP code when migrating to 64-bit Windows. The new MailBee64.dll is included in the installation package, and it uses the same license key (no upgrade fees). The 64-bit DLL is fully compatible with the 32-bit version (no code changes required).

Also, as usual, please don't forget to contact our Professional Services department if you need help with any of your projects, including custom software development. Our top notch programmers would gladly review your requirements and quote on a custom project. The hourly rates start at only $35/hr.

It's really boring to browse a static website when the entire web gets visual and dynamic. It doesn't make sense to click and wait in our time of single-click solutions. It's ridiculous to reload an entire page just to expand a menu or open a search form. This is especially true for e-mail applications, for we spend hours with them on the daily basis. A fresh wave in the Web mail industry is MailBee WebMail, a full-fledged Web mail application with AJAX interface.

Read full review

MailBee.NET Objects has now been updated to v3.1.

New property LocalEndPoint in SmtpServer and DirectSendServerConfig classes allows you to bind all outgoing SMTP connections with the specific local IP address and port number (useful for performance tuning if your computer has multiple network adapters).

New method Smtp.GetMXHosts can be used to get the list of SMTP MX servers for the specified domain.

MIME and S/MIME parsing has been significantly improved. Other changes relate to DNS subsystem, IMAP response processing and SSL functionality. Supporting tools like "Save License Key To Registry" utility has been improved as well.

For more information please visit MailBee.NET SMTP Component homepage.

New version of MailBee WebMail Lite is available. Now both ASP.NET and PHP editions are completely free and packed with some features previously available in Pro version only.

Usability - with the message preview pane, you can quickly read messages not leaving the message list page.

Development - you can control WebMail Lite from other web applications and easily integrate the product into your web site.

User interface languages - English, Danish, French, Portuguese-Brazil, Russian, and Swedish translations built-in, easy to add new translations.

For more information please visit MailBee WebMail Lite homepage.

We updated MailBee Message Queue to make it support regular .EML files instead of the proprietary .MBM ones. Now MMQ can work with both MailBee SMTP and MailBee.NET SMTP components.

With .EML format support, MMQ can now act as a replacement of IIS SMTP queue. Any application which can submit .EML files to IIS SMTP pickup folder can do the same with MMQ.

This makes it possible to use MMQ stand-alone, without MailBee SMTP and MailBee.NET SMTP components.

Another important enhancement is the ability to have multiple instances of MMQ running on the same computer. You can change Windows service name for MMQ so that each instance can use its own name.

Just released MailBee Objects v5.5 offers a pack of new features to developers of classic ASP, Windows, and other applications using ActiveX technology.

MailBee Objects v5.5 now supports queuing into IIS SMTP pickup folder, UTF-7M IMAP4 mailbox names, decoding MS-TNEF (winmail.dat) attachments, better charset processing, user-defined text body types (such as calendar entries), and more.

With the new version, you can reliably receive multiple messages from the IMAP4 server even if the server returns some entries in invalid format.

MailBee can now work with non-MIME messages with attachments (AOL is still known to produce such 'old-school' emails).

The new version also contains lots of fixes and improvements to all the parts of the component library, its documentation, and samples.

We recommend MailBee Objects v5.5 for all applications which cannot use .NET framework. For .NET applications, MailBee.NET Objects v3.0 is the best choice.

MailBee.NET Objects v3 is here now. In this version, we added S/MIME and more SSL capabilities along with mail merge over database, advanced processing of HTML e-mails, and more.

Other major changes include support of proxy servers, IMAP SORT and IDLE, ability to keep already downloaded messages on download error, and DNS MX query caching.

We also improved performance and quality of MIME parsing, implemented a lot of miscellaneous minor features, made all the components Win64 and Vista compatible.

Also, the setup program can now additionally install a MailBee.NET.dll version natively compiled for .NET Framework 2.0 and above.

Finally, the documentation and sample projects have been rewritten and extended in many aspects.

AfterLogic XMail Server is out. It is an open source email server based on popular and cross-platform XMail Server. The initial version supports POP3, SMTP, and Finger protocols. It can be used with MailBee WebMail as well as with any other e-mail client.

AfterLogic XMail Server supports all the features the original XMail does, but also enables additional features.

The product is shipped under GPLv2 terms, and the source code can be compiled under a number of platforms including Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS X, etc. We also provide pre-compiled packages for Windows, RedHat and Ubuntu.

The new version with AJAX interface is finally out. WebMail Pro v4 is rewritten from the ground up and provides significant improvements in functionality and usability.

Equipped with both AJAX and static HTML versions of the user interface, WebMail Pro v4 can take advantage of modern web experience still retaining compatibility with older browsers.
