New Features for Administrators
Seamless Integration with Gmail and Microsoft 365
MDaemon now supports OAuth 2.0. OAuth 2.0 allows two parties to reliably and securely exchange information. For example, it allows one service (such as MDaemon) to access resources on another service (such as GMail or Microsoft 365) on behalf of the user. This is also known as delegated authority, and it allows MDaemon users to seamlessly download their email from GMail or Microsoft 365 into their MDaemon mailboxes without having to directly login on these platforms.
Organize Email into Categories Across Multiple IMAP Clients using Keyword Flags
Users can organize their email messages into categories across multiple IMAP clients using keyword flags. When a user assigns keywords to a message in one mail client, those keywords will be stored on the MDaemon server and synchronized to other mail clients that support keyword flags.
SSL Certificate Expiration Notifications
To help administrators avoid SSL service interruptions, MDaemon will send a warning email to administrators when SSL certificates configured for use by MDaemon, Webmail, or Remote Administration are about to expire.
Improved User Interface for Remote Administration
MDaemon Remote Administration has been redesigned with a more intuitive layout to help administrators manage domains, accounts and sever settings more efficiently.
New Features for End Users
Collaboration Improvements with Google Drive Integration for MDaemon Webmail
While MDaemon Webmail continues to support shared documents and DropBox integration, in MDaemon 23, Google Drive has been integrated into Webmail Documents. Users can view their drives, folders and files that are stored in Google Drive, and they can upload, download, move, copy, rename, and delete files, as well as copy or move files to and from the local Documents folder. Users with proper permissions can even directly edit Google Drive documents by clicking the option to view the file in Google Drive.
Other Improvements
MDaemon
- Enhanced Dynamic Screening: Block Login Policy Violations – MDaemon’s Dynamic Screening feature includes a new option titled Block Logon Policy Violations. If the logon policy to require full email addresses is active, and Block Logon Policy Violations is active, then the offending IP address will be blocked immediately.
- We’ve also added a new option for Auth Failures to only ignore duplicate passwords for valid accounts. This means that if a password change was made at a client, then another client using the old password will still have “ignore duplicates” enabled, since it would have the correct logon name. A bot trying random logons with a similar password would not have that same benefit, and will be blocked as soon as it surpasses the auth failure threshold. This will help to defeat bots much more quickly.
- Antivirus – Added an option to exclude trusted IPs from virus
- MTA-STS now has an exempt list to help work around deliverability issues when a receiver publishes a MTA- STS policy but the server does not support STARTTLS.
- The content filter attachments configuration screen now includes an option to add a warning at the top of the message if a restricted attachment is removed from the message.
