Build 8495 (Apr 5, 2023)

  • IMPORTANT: RBLs/URIBLs that use the same hostname will be consolidated upon upgrade, and RBLs/URIBLs with Required Lookup Values disabled will use a wildcard upon upgrade.
  • IMPORTANT: Conference Rooms are now created as hidden email addresses in SmarterMail. As such, they cannot conflict with users, aliases or mailing lists. Prior to upgrading it’s important to ensure any existing conference room names DO NOT match any existing users, aliases or mailing lists to avoid potential conflicts. See our KB on Conference Room Conflicts and Resolutions if you do see conflicts after upgrading.
  • IMPORTANT: Due to significant changes in SmarterMail, you cannot downgrade to previous versions, and it may not be possible to restore your installation to previous versions. Regardless, it is recommended that you take a full backup of your SmarterMail installation before upgrading.
  • IMPORTANT: Some IDS Rules have been consolidated and will revert to default configurations upon upgrade. Therefore, review existing IDS Rules post-upgrade so modifications can be made, if desired. (Webmail Brute Force by IP and Webmail Brute Force by Email are now Password Brute Force by IP and Password Brute Force by Email. In addition, Password Brute Force by IP/Email and Denial of Service (DoS) will now use one rule for all services/protocols.)
