Redesign of sharing rights
Sharing rights and their interface have been revised to improve ergonomics, standardize rights in different applications, clarify their effects and simplify their use:
Mail
Sharing individual folders
BlueMind's messaging system now includes a much-awaited and much-appreciated feature: folder sharing! Users can now access their folders individually, without having to share their entire mailbox. The recipient of the share can then find the folder in his BlueMind mailbox, as well as in his third-party client software (Thunderbird or Outlook, for example) or mobile application, thanks to the subscription mechanism.
For more details on the procedure and possible accesses, please consult the dedicated documentation: Manage shared folders.
Conversation display
Conversation mode display has new customizable settings:
- participant's display order:
- message display order (chronological or reverse chronological):
For more details on the positioning and effects of these new parameters, see the dedicated page: Classify and track conversations.
Quota display
The display of the mailbox occupancy rate has been enhanced with several visual alert levels depending on how full the mailbox is (color change in the message list and connection alert banners) to prevent users from unexpectedly reaching saturation:
To find out how to set up the display and the thresholds and types of alerts, consult the dedicated page: Manage storage capacity (quota)
