## MDaemon 24.0.0 - May 21, 2024

### CHANGES AND NEW FEATURES

#### MDAEMON SERVER

- [27526] MDaemon can collect and send anonymous usage data to MDaemon Technologies. We will use this information to improve the product and its features to better meet the needs of our customers. This can be disabled by unchecking the "Send anonymous usage data" checkbox at Setup | Preferences | Miscellaneous. See our privacy policy.
- [27687] The DKIM option to sign mailing list messages no longer requires content filter processing on each individual list message.
- [27024] The Bad Queue Summary email now has a link to delete all messages. It requires action links to be enabled (at Queues | Mail Queues / DSN | Mail Queues | Holding Queue) and the Remote Administration URL to be set (at Setup | Web & IM Services | Remote Administration | Web Server).
- [16053] ARC (Authenticated Received Chain) - RFC 8617.

  ARC is an email authentication protocol that lets intermediate mail servers digitally sign a message's authentication results. When a downstream mail server does DMARC verification and finds that SPF or DKIM have failed (due to forwarding or mailing list modifications, for example), it can look for ARC results from a trusted server and use them to decide whether to accept the message.

  ARC verification and signing can be enabled at Security|Security Manager|Sender Authentication|ARC Settings. Trusted ARC Sealers are the domains whose ARC results you trust. ARC results from non-trusted domains are ignored when doing DMARC verification. ARC signing needs a selector and a signing domain. You can use the same selector for ARC that you use for DKIM signing, or create a new one. If you host multiple domains and want to use a different selector or signing domain for any of them, click Advanced to configure that. Forwarded messages, mailing list messages, and gateway messages with authentication results are eligible for ARC signing.

- [27737] Added support for SEM files without "blacklist" and "whitelist" in their names: BLOCKLIST.SEM, SENDERBLOCKLIST.SEM, RCPTBLOCKLIST.SEM, CREDSMATCHEXEMPTLIST.SEM, DMARCEXEMPTLIST.SEM.
- [27425] Changed the Hijack Detection account frozen notification email to say the exact reason the account was frozen.
- [27612] MDaemon disables the MDaemon Connector client auto-updater in versions before 7.0.6, to work around an auto-updater bug in those versions.

#### REMOTE ADMINISTRATION (MDRA)

- [27727] Added an option to allow Webmail users to create temporary links that can be shared with anyone at Main | Webmail Settings | Settings (global), Domain Manager | Edit | Webmail Settings, and Account Manager | Edit | Settings. Added the Document Links management tools at Main | Webmail Settings | Document Links. The tools allow Global Admins to see what links are being shared, when they were created, how many times they have been downloaded, and the last download. In addition, admins can revoke any link.
- [27120] Added license status to the Main | Status page.
- [18409] Added an option for Webmail to "Disable hyperlinks in spam and messages that fail DMARC, DNSBL, or SPF authentication" which is enabled by default. An additional option to make an exception "when the From header matches a contact in the domain's or user's Allowed Senders contact lists" was added for both Block HTML images and Disable hyperlinks.

#### WEBMAIL

- [27097] Pro theme - Added an option to allow users to create temporary links that can be shared with anyone. In the document list, the user can click on the link action icon to the right to create a link. The user can also use the dialog to delete the link. If a link exists for a document, a link icon will appear before the file name in the document list.
- [27217] Improved performance by reducing the amount of disk I/O.

The color setting is honored in LookOut and WorldClient themes.
