Recommended Patches, Late-Breaking Issues

Note: Mirapoint's policy is to always integrate patches created to address known problems into the next patch release.
 

AddressBook

• The address book CGI will no longer crash when invalid data is found, and rather display "Data exception" in the associated field when accessed via webmail. (MIRA-55274)

Administration

• A full NDMP restore is now more reliable. (MIRA-55128)
• A new command implemented 'User Set AutoCalendarAccept' that causes some users to always accept events. This is designed to be primarily activated on resource accounts so when other users attempt to schedule the resource conflicts may be seen. (MIRA-53265)
• Corrected an issue when renaming large mailbox names would report a system i/o error. (MIRA-55117)
• Multiple IMAP sessions manipulating the same message set could, occasionally, result in inconsistent database content. (MIRA-55278)
• Corrected an issue when listing mailboxes that use multi-byte character sets. (MIRA-55108)

Calendar

• A repeating event can now be viewed correctly by a delegate with read permission. (MIRA-52566)
• Creating an all day event will now report a conflict if a timed event exists on the same day. (MIRA-52700)
• An all day event can now be changed to event less than 'all day'. (MIRA-52828)
• When an event is updated using the XML interface, the owner is no longer moved to an 'external attendee'. (MIRA-52982)
• When an invitation email is read via IMAP or POP the event will now appear in the users calendar. (MIRA-53049)
• Updating an attachment on a recurring event now replaces the existing attachment. (MIRA-53282)
• MOS now respects the domain setting for 'Default Email Reminder' when set to 'disabled', this setting now applies to all users in the domain. (MIRA-55093)
• After importing contacts that were exported using webmail the phone number fields are now correctly mapped to the correct fields. (MIRA-55104)
• Some calendar stability enhancements. (MIRA-55113)
• When scheduling a repeating event, future conflicts will be reported that occur within 28 days of the first date. (MIRA-55147)
• Inter-server calendar communications are now more stable. (MIRA-55258)
• The XML server now correctly handles clients that close their connection prematurely. (MIRA-55260)
• Webmail and webcal could previously become unstable with a large number of XML clients in an IDLE state. (MIRA-55266)
• Further webmail and webcal stability enhancements. (MIRA-55290)
• A memory leak was fixed in the calendar server. (MIRA-55291)
• Memory usage optimised for multi-threaded calendar and webmail applications. (MIRA-55296)

Clustering

• Remote Site Replication (RSR) is more reliable for a large number of file changes. (MIRA-55161)

Documentation

• Copyright notices updated. (MIRA-55309)
• The online help for 'ntp get status' has been updated with a full description of all fields. (MIRA-55236)

Filtering

• The MTA now correctly handles, by bouncing with a 552 code, messages who's header exceeds one million bytes. (MIRA-55103)
• Escape characters in regular expressions are now correctly recognised in the Japanese locale. (MIRA-55169)

Hardware Support

• iDRAC firmware updated to v1.66.65 for 8-series systems. (MIRA-54972)

IMAP

• The limit for the number of messages in a folder has been increased from to 50,000 to 150,000 in delegated domains. (MIRA-42102)
• Logging in as 'administrator' when the IMAP server is in 'ldapproxy' mode no longer causes the session to hang or terminate. (MIRA-55156)

MTA

• DKIM now correctly verifies Google's DKIM signatures. (MIRA-55191)
• The autoreply function now correctly handles "Reply-To:" headers split over more than one line. (MIRA-52793)
• SPF return values modified to align with the online help. Similarly, the online help has been updated to be accurate. (MIRA-55178)

Operating System

• Additional database stability issues. (MIRA-55116)
• When creating a folder path, eg. user.username.folderA.folderB.folderC, all intermediate folders will also be created. (MIRA-55143)
• Fixed a database deadlock condition that would occur during a server migration when IMAP was being used to transfer mail contents. (MIRA-55172)
• Timezone files updated (2014-11-17). (MIRA-55244)
