Download MDaemon 12.5.4

Alt-N Technologies has released version 12.5.4 of MDaemon. MDaemon is a mail server for the Windows platform, with built-in antivirus and antispam capabilities. In addition, calendars, and address and task lists can be shared, and senders can be validated by means of DomainKeys or Sender ID. An overview of all possibilities is on this page to find. In version 12.5, support for tablets has been added and support for BlackBerry has been improved. The changelog for version 12.5.4 looks like this:

Changes and new features

• [8468] The F2 | Servers option “…drops connection if transmission exceeds” has been removed in favor of the global “… refuses all messages larger than” and per-domain “… refuses messages to domain larger than” settings. Overly large messages are refused with a “552 Message too big (max XX KB)” or “552 Message too big for domain.com (max XX KB)” response to the MAIL command if the sending server supports the SIZE extension, otherwise it is sent as the DATA response after the message is received. Note that once an incoming message exceeds the allowable size MDaemon will permit the transmission to continue to completion but it will write no further data to disk, to protect against disk-fill attacks. The Ctrl+O | Miscellaneous option “…Skip SIZE checks for authenticated SMTP sessions” has been moved to F2 | Servers and renamed “…but not if the SMTP session is authenticated.”
• [8802] WebAdmin domain administrators may now add/edit domain administrators for their allowed domains
• [8783] MDaemon’s installer no longer includes all of the BES software directly. Instead, the admin is asked whether BES should also be installed. If yes, the install process launches a browser window which assesses eligibility, provides important BES related information, and offers the proper download links to install the rest of BES.
• [7522] When RAW messages are found and processed MDaemon will trigger a remote mail processing event if the “deliver queued mail immediately whenever possible” scheduling option is enabled. Previously, RAW message processing was incapable of triggering this event.
• [5645] WebAdmin domain administrators may now configure an account’s BES settings. This requires the “Manage BlackBerry device” permission be set for the domain adminstrator.
• [8867] WorldClient now auto-saves drafts every 3 minutes by default rather than every 1 minute. This can be changed by editing WorldClient’s Domains.ini AutoSaveDraftFrequency=X (in minutes, or 0 to disable).
• [8803] ActiveSync was added to the Servers pane in the UI. This toggles the state of the ActiveSync server for the “Default” setting. It does not change any per-domain ActiveSync server setting.
• [8823] The ActiveSync server now supports remote wipe via a new button found on the Mobile Details page within the Account Editor. You can also see details about each ActiveSync device that has connected to the account.
• [8762] The Account Manager will display the amount of disk space used in MB rather than KB.
• [8835] The WorldClient LookOut theme will notify users when logging in if their autoresponder is enabled in case they would like to turn it off.
• [7690] Updated the WorldClient Lookout theme to use a calendar date picker control when scheduling an autoresponder.
• [8828] Messages sent via SMTP from “MDaemon@” will no longer be accepted even if authenticated. The only way to accept mail from that address is if the sending server is listed in the Trusted IP section in Ctrl+S (Security Settings).
• [8642] Updated several pages in WebAdmin to match MDaemon.
• [8822] The ActiveSync server will mark a message as replied on the server when a client uses the SmartReply command.
• [8445] The ActiveSync server now supports the Ping command, which is used to push changes from the server to the client.
• [6623] The ActiveSync server now supports the Search command, which allows clients to search the public Contacts folder.
• [8739] The BES configuration UI now includes a page with a link to a new BES landing page at Alt-N if BES is not installed (MDaemon PRO only).
• [8740] Install process will put up a progress dialog when installing EULA related files to keep the install process from appearing to be frozen
• [7215] WebAdmin now includes the ability to edit group name, description, and members
• [8636] WebAdmin now disables Mail Services tab for disabled user accounts
• [8479] A valid SecurityPlus license key is no longer required in order to use or develop MDaemon plugins that call SMTPMessageFunc, SMTPMessageFunc2, SMTPMessageFunc3, DomainPOPMessageFunc, or MultiPOPMessageFunc.
• [8460] The ActiveSync server now considers messages that have been marked as deleted by an IMAP client, and not expunged, to be deleted.
• [8965] The SpamAssassin rule URIBL_RHS_DOB has been disabled due to slowness it may be causing.
