Changelog 3.5.14 → 3.5.15
Major improvements
Improvements to the Calendar:
The management of invitations and responses to meetings has been improved. Notification options, labels and names have been clarified and simplified to reduce the risk of differing or inconsistent views between employees.
The management of recurring events has also been improved:
The ability to choose how changes apply to a series of events (to apply to one instance, the whole series or subsequent instances) has been rolled out to all actions carried out in calendar view.
When organizing a meeting, the organizer can now choose to send the information to participants or save the meeting as draft to finalize the event later.
The organizer can also choose to notify all participants or not when a guest is added or removed.
Participants can no longer accept or decline an invitation without sending a response to the organizer.
Please refer to the documentation for more details.
This version introduces the possibility to manage the expiring BlueMind passwords.
When this feature is enabled, users are forced to change their password when it expires. Administrators can make a password expire with immediate effect in order to force a user to change it.
Please refer to documentation for more details.
BlueMind calendar (web)
-
BM-15775: Fixes a bug preventing drag&drop of recurring events from one day to another (only affected the first instance).
-
BM-15802: Fixes an issue preventing the synchronization of large external calendars.
CALDav Calendar
- ULR-216: Fixes an issue when synchronizing using CALDav. A crash would occur if a CALDav synchronized device attempted to delete an event that had already been deleted.
ICS Calendar (email)
-
BM-15562 BM-15608: Some malformed attached files could prevent an event from appearing in
the calendar, even if it was displayed in webmail. This issue is now fixed, malformed
attached files are now ignored. -
BM-15656: Fixes an issue when receiving an ICS invite in a shared mailbox.
Shared mailboxes don’t have a calendar, so invites are simply ignored.A log still exists in /var/log/bm/lmtp.log:
Unsupported entry kind: {} for email {}"
Exchange Active Sync (EAS)
-
BM-15529: Fixes an email sending issue on some Android devices.
In some cases, sending emails (replies) was prevented because the date field was not parsed properly.
When this happens, BlueMind now initializes the date field itself. -
BM-15201: New users can now configure a new device without waiting for 10 minutes after
the user is created.
Thunderbird connector
-
BM-15766: Calendar: when updating the Thunderbird connector, the cache was not fully cleared,
which could lead to a synchronization issue. The cache is now fully cleared. - BM-15850: Signature: improvement allowing BlueMind to remember signature preview preferences.
Outlook connector:
-
BM-15365: The synchronization is no longer stopped when the user opens the Outlook File Menu.
The connector now stops the synchronization when the user opens the BlueMind settings.
Admin console:
-
BM-15724: Password changes: Fixes a crash if an Active Directory (or LDAP) synchronized
user tried to update their password.A message is now displayed warning about the mismanipulation.
(Passwords must be changed through the LDAP or ActiveDirectory server, not through BlueMind). -
BM-15716: Mail / Groups: misc fixes in the handling of group permissions:
In group settings, the management of rights was tied to the “Keep copy of messages” checkbox which was restrictive. Rights management is now allowed all the time. -
BM-15546: Fixes an error when a non administrator user tries to create a new
domain. Permissions are now checked before a domain can be created. If the
user does not have sufficient permissions level, an error message is displayed. -
BM-15121: Fixes a problem when saving system configurations.
If only the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) was present in the server, an error prevented
the administrator from saving the configuration.An error message is now displayed: “Invalid mynetworks: [xxx] - must contain only IP or subnet.”
-
FEATBL-946: Host reporting tool has received multiple improvements for host subscriptions.
**** TO DO: PROVIDE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION ****

-
BM-15719: Improves the displaying of a PostgreSQL database connection error.
If the code doesn’t manage to connect to the database, a core log (var/log/bm/core.log) now shows the passing of “Unable to connect to pool …” rather than a Java stacktrace.
