The Zextras crew is delighted to present Carbonio Community Edition 24.3.0 with various improvements and new features.
Features to highlight:
Support for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS!
We're thrilled to announce that Carbonio CE now fully supports Ubuntu 22.04 LTS! Take full advantage of the features Ubuntu 22.04 LTS has to offer with Carbonio CE.
Contact Group Creation
We've supercharged your contact management in Carbonio CE! It’s easier than ever to create a contact group with our new feature. Through a user-friendly interface, you can conveniently add members to a group by typing directly in the contact input or selecting a proposed option. These groups help you distribute your messages more easily by inserting these groups into your emails and taking communication to the next level.
Distribution List Management for Users
In the upcoming release of Zextras Carbonio, we are introducing an exciting enhancement to the User Distribution List Management feature. Users will now have comprehensive control over their distribution lists, with the ability to view the lists they belong to and manage them efficiently. This update provides a seamless experience, distinguishing between read-only access and management privileges. Users can effortlessly add or remove members, adjust ownership, and fine-tune distribution list settings according to their organizational needs. With these enhancements, users can confidently streamline their communication processes, even extending the utility of distribution lists beyond organizational boundaries.
Enhanced Quarantine Management in Admin Panel
In the forthcoming release of Carbonio CE, administrators will experience a significant upgrade in quarantine management, marked by a myriad of advanced features. With the ability to fine-tune threat detection accuracy through the evaluation of different score values, admins gain nuanced insights into message severity. Furthermore, the integration of score and reason values in the message detail view empowers administrators with a deeper understanding and informed decision-making capabilities regarding quarantine actions. This release streamlines threat response, allowing admins to promptly delete infected attachments and deliver clean message bodies directly from the interface. Additionally, the inclusion of features such as downloading and sharing messages with recipients or deleting them ensures swift and efficient threat mitigation. The introduction of the "Show Original" option facilitates rapid remediation by enabling admins to download emails directly from quarantine.
Simplified Login Experience for Users
The latest update to Carbonio CE webmail introduces a streamlined login experience, eliminating the need for users to type their full email address. With this enhancement, users can now log in using just their username and password, enhancing convenience and efficiency. Administrators have the flexibility to configure domain-specific virtual host names, ensuring seamless access management across various domains. This improvement prioritizes user experience and simplifies the login process, providing clarity on default domain association without additional user input.
Enhanced Contacts Management with Export/Import Functionality
Carbonio CE users now benefit from enhanced contacts management capabilities with the introduction of export and import functionalities. With the simple "Export" option accessible via the right-click menu, users can conveniently export mail contacts to CSV files. The feature ensures smooth handling of errors during CSV file imports and excludes contacts in sub-address books for a streamlined experience.
Displaying Profile Pictures in Chats Creation Modal
Carbonio Chats now displays profile pictures of known users in the “add participants” modal. When selecting users with whom the user already shares a one-to-one or group conversation, their avatars will showcase their profile pictures, enhancing recognition and engagement. This thoughtful enhancement ensures a seamless and visually enriching experience, fostering stronger connections within the Carbonio ecosystem.
Customized Time Zones for Scheduling Appointments
Carbonio now offers users the ability to select their preferred time zone while creating appointments, facilitating flexible scheduling across different locations. This intuitive update streamlines the appointment creation process, ensuring users can adapt to diverse scheduling needs effortlessly. Particularly beneficial for organizations with remote employees.
Equipment and Meeting Room Management
The upcoming Carbonio CE update introduces a dynamic input feature for Equipment and Meeting Room selection, offering users a seamless experience. Users can now effortlessly search and filter Equipment options by typing in the input field while scheduling an appointment, which dynamically transforms selected options into chips. Validation ensures only valid options are visible upon appointment saving, while availability information is conveniently displayed.

Features to highlight:
Efficient Attachment Handling with Smart Links
With "Smart Links" in the latest Zextras Carbonio CE release, users can seamlessly send large attachments as links, eliminating size limitations and ensuring smooth delivery. This feature facilitates the email composition process, optimizing outgoing mail flow while providing users with greater control over sent documents. Though considerations like security and compatibility exist, Smart Links significantly enhance user experience and system efficiency within the digital workplace.
Appointment Creation from Emails
In our latest update to Zextras Carbonio CE, we're excited to introduce a seamless integration that allows users to create appointments directly from emails with ease. By simply utilizing a menu, users can now initiate a new appointment creation process, with the email's content automatically prefilled in the 'Description' field.

With this intuitive feature, managing schedules becomes more intuitive and effortless within the digital workplace environment.
Instant Availability Check-in Appointment Invitations

This enhancement eliminates the need for users to navigate away from their inboxes to check their calendars, providing immediate insight into their schedules. With this feature, users can make informed decisions on whether to accept or decline appointments without hesitation, ensuring efficient time management.
Interactive Duration Adjustment for Events
Users can now effortlessly set the duration of events by simply dragging the event borders in the calendar view. This intuitive feature eliminates the need for complex menu navigation, allowing users to quickly customize appointment times to their preferences. With manual duration adjustment, scheduling becomes more flexible and efficient, enhancing overall productivity within the workspace.

This facilitates the process and ensures seamless data transfer and compatibility across platforms, simplifying calendar management within the digital workspace.
Import ICS Files into the Calendar

Thank you! Nice work. My users will benefit from the Calendar import/export and other improvements. Yay! Here are a few minor issue my users are bringing up to me with 24.5.0.
1. Regarding Contacts, there is no way to 'Select All' or numerous Contacts at once, in the way Inbox you have the 'Activate selection mode' button. The use case is to Delete or Move many Contacts at once.
2. Inbox view: Is there a way to make the Reply, Reply-All, Forward, Trash icons larger? This hover over menu is very tiny for some of my users to see. And there is no other Actions ribbon for them to see the way Zimbra has so bigger icons would help.
3. Mail view: Is there a way to change Date format from default of DD/MM/YYYY to USA version of MM/DD/YYYY? I would think we could manage this in Admin Portal or the Users Preferences based on Locale but it doesn't seem so.
4. Will the far left sidebar ever be able to 'pop-out'? The icons are very small for a few users. They like the way the second column can pop-out or collapse, to show / hide say Mail folders. Just a suggestion.
5. Wipe Folder. Specifically on Junk and with custom folders, users were afraid to choose this, they were expecting the word Empty. You show the word Empty on the Contacts tab. I'm looking for consistency. Is there a way to customize this on our end to our preference? Not a big deal, I am just trying to train many users coming from Zimbra and Action words seem to matter to them. But #6 below is far more important regarding this topic of Wipe Folder.
6. Wipe Folder should not be enabled on the default Mail folders: Inbox, Drafts, Sent. We would we want to give users the ability to permanently delete everything, even by accident. This was disabled in Zimbra and I am afraid it could wreak havoc for me as an administrator. Any ideas?
7. Chat history from Zimbra: I researched but didn't see a way to export/import Chat history from Zimbra. Is that not possible?
Thank you for everyone's hard work. We are looking forward to your reply.

@hippiecool Thank you very much for the useful feedback.
About number 5, no, there is no way for users to customize that without digging into the codes.
About number 7, at this point, it is not possible.
About other points, we ensure that the message is delivered to the development teams as well.
Thanks again.
Thank you for the quick reply.
I noticed a typo, so to be clear about number 6: We would NOT want to give users the ability to permanently delete everything, even by accident in the default mail folders - Inbox, Drafts and Sent.
Thank you.
Good afternoon,
In I found a BUG in the contacts module. I try to create a "New Contact Group", but it doesn't work. That new created group does not appear. What can be?
Current version of Carbonio Mail: 24.5.0
Hello everyone,
The Zextras crew is delighted to present Carbonio Community Edition 24.7.0 with various improvements and new features.
Features to highlight:
Download Contacts as vCard
With the latest update of Zextras Carbonio CE, users can now download individual contacts as vCards. This new feature allows users to export any contact from their address book into the widely used vCard format, ensuring all contact details are preserved.
Import vCard from Email Attachments
Zextras Carbonio CE now allows users to effortlessly import vCards from email attachments directly into their address book. When users receive emails containing vCard (.vcf) files, they can easily add these contacts to their address book with a simple import feature.
Seamless User Search for 1:1 Conversations
The new release of Zextras Carbonio CE simplifies finding and starting 1:1 conversations with users. Now, when you search for someone, you can find them whether or not you've had a previous conversation.
Upgrade to OpenSSL 3.0 LTS
Zextras Carbonio CE now incorporates the latest OpenSSL 3.0 LTS, enhancing security and performance. With the 1.1.x series is now deprecated, this upgrade to the 3.0.x series ensures long-term support and stability.
Enhanced Files Functionality Without Preview & Docs
Zextras Carbonio CE Files feature now seamlessly adapts to environments without Preview and Docs services installed. For users in single-server setups without these services, the Files UI intelligently hides all related features, such as creating, editing, and opening documents, as well as preview actions and thumbnails.
Password Reset Capability for Users
Zextras Carbonio CE now allows users to reset their passwords locally using a recovery code, provided the feature is enabled by the admin. To enable this feature, admins must set zimbraFeatureResetPasswordStatus to enabled. Users can then add a recovery email in their settings. When a password reset is requested, a recovery code is sent to the recovery email, which users can use to authenticate and reset their password.
Recurrent Appointment Indicator
Zextras Carbonio CE calendar now clearly indicates if an appointment is recurrent, enhancing user awareness and response efficiency. A new "Repeat" icon will be displayed on appointment cards to signify recurring events.
and many more improvements!

Hello,
After installing the new release my installation didn't work any more ...
WHer I try to connect en HTTPS to the web interface the screen is displayed but when I key user+password nothing happens ...
And with my certificate problem I can't even connect to the admin panel.
The certificates in /opt/zextras/conf/domaincerts are changed at every restart and I cannot find from where they are loaded.
Regards
JP P
thanks for the new release. But the update on RHEL8 is a nightmare. First on the instructions it could make clear that if you have already PostgreSQL 16 then skip this section.
First I got a package conflict with carbonio-openldap and carbonio-libevent. I fixed it by installing them manually and install the failed packages again
dnf install carbonio-openldap-2.4.59-7.el8.x86_64 dnf install carbonio-libevent-2.1.12-2.el8.x86_64 dnf install carbonio-login-ui dnf install carbonio-admin-login-ui dnf upgrade --best --allowerasing
