General​

BlueMind version lifecycle​

In order to improve visibility on BlueMind releases, their support and lifecycle, we publish the naming and lifecycle policy :

For further information see dedicated page: BlueMind lifecycle.

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. Thanks to the subscription mechanism, the recipient can then find the folder in their BlueMind mailbox, as well as in their third-party client software (Thunderbird or Outlook, for example) or mobile application.

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: Moving, Flagging and Marking 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 what the thresholds and alert types are, visit the dedicated page: Managing storage capacity (quota).

Download all attachments​

BlueMind version 5.1 adds the long-awaited download all attachments feature to the webmail: in a single click, download an archive containing all e-mail attachments!

Webmail interface improvements​
