    Open-Xchange releases OX App Suite v7.8.2, OX 6 v6.22.12, OX Documents v7.8.2 and OX Guard v2.4.2

    Open-Xchange is pleased to announce the release of OX App Suite v7.8.2, OX 6 v6.22.12, OX Documents v7.8.2 and OX Guard v2.4.2.

    OX App Suite v7.8.2 and OX Documents v7.8.2

    The main focus of this release is to improve the web frontend design and provide usability enhancements for all applications. With OX App Suite v7.8.2 and OX Documents v7.8.2, Open-Xchange has again made significant improvements to the overall design, improving navigation, optimizing workflows and helping users maximize the benefits of the OX App Suite interface.

    Email Categorization
    To deliver a better user experience and more efficient workflows, OX App Suite is now able to display various message categories in tabs above the inbox list. Users can choose to let OX App Suite organize their email for them automatically.

    Drive Mail
    With OX Drive, OX App Suite already supports the sharing of files by generating public links. In OX App Suite v7.8.2, this is now combined with a new feature that allows the composition of messages with large files without the limitation of attachment size. OX App Suite automatically identifies attachments that are too large to send via email. These attachments are transferred to OX Drive and linked to within the email. This gives users the ability to send large files without needing to share them actively through OX Drive manually.

    The Mail Attachment Overview
    To make working with attachments easier, OX App Suite offers a new folder, which shows all email attachments in one place. This includes files a user has attached to email messages and files received with incoming email. Please Note: This feature requires Dovecot Pro v2.2.25.1 or higher.

    A more detailed overview of all the improvements to OX App Suite v7.8.2 can be found at:


    OX Documents Improvements

    For service providers looking to extend value to their customer base, using OX Documents as a hook is perfect. Fully integrated into OX App Suite, OX Documents v7.8.2 provides some new features like exporting a document as a PDF file and converting your documents to PDF. In addition, sharing is now also possible while editing a document. There is no need to navigate to OX Drive afterwards to share the desired document any more, eliminating an additional workflow.

    OX Guard enhancements

    OX Guard now supports the concept of “Basic” and “Advanced” users. It is recognized that most people are not encryption experts, and some of the features and terminology in Guard that were designed for advanced encryption users were confusing to normal users. This is why OX Guard now offers easy-to-use functions for basic users and advanced options for professional users. In addition, OX Guard adapts its terminology to the target audience with different terminology for basic or advanced encryption users.
