    Great job guys! Super long changelog, happy to see many of the changes included there! 🙂 I'm going to upgrade likely tomorrow night.

    PS - Girish, the migration went well from you manually adding in the self-signed certs the other day. I really appreciate the awesome support and help with that! You guys rock!

      Why are we allowing POP3? It's an old, outdated, and insecure mail protocol.

          For some reason it is still required for various things. e.g. Discourse reply-by-email features (as mad as that sounds), and I think perhaps sucking messages into Gmail too (which can help people to get started using Cloudron mail stuff before they are ready to fully transition away from where they've currently got everything)

          I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

            @murgero mostly for compatibility with apps and some services that we cannot control. Admittedly, I didn't want to enable it but it was trivial to enable it in dovecot.

            It's also disabled by default for all mailboxes. We also only support POP3S (no plain POP3).

              TBH all mail protocols are outdated and insecure if compared so secure messenger protocols. Email cannot be fixed or made secure (think encryption or shit like HTML emails)

                    Just curious @girish @nebulon ... I see 7.0.2 out but I still get the notice of this being pre-release and not production ready... is that still accurate or is that an outdated message?

                    This update is a pre-release and not considered stable yet. Please update at your own risk.

                      Thanks for the fantastic release!!

                      Brilliant new features: per event log, per cron, app manager role, email data file manager, and everything else...well done!!

                      Always visible grey squared gear icon is a bit less pretty than just the gear (as it used to be), no? Very minor point of course!

                      Also there was a talk on a mailbox manager role at some point (someone who could administrate the email side of thing), is this part of this release in the end or is there more work plan for this or for other role customisation in the next release?

                        which one do you mean? We have reworked some code in the apps grid to support the app operator role, so maybe you hit some regression, as the gear icon I am thinking of, should not be always visible.

                          @nebulon Apologies, I meant that on mouse hover an app, there is now a grey square button (with white gear) always visible, which then turns white (with blue gear) when actually hovering over it. Before it used to be that you see only the gear (without a square) when hovering over an app and you'd see the square when hovering over the gear.

                          Haha I've realised this is only a dark theme issue. I've just tried in another browser with a light theme and the issue is not here. So yes, probably a slight regression on the dark theme.

                            @avatar1024 well spotted, thanks. This is indeed a regression. I have fixed this now for the next release.

                              @d19dotca since we roll out slowly, it will show as 'unstable' for the others. at this point, 7.0 is still available only to new installations and those who check for an update manually. We will start a roll out only next week. In general, it is truly stable (as in, what we have staged might have small regressions) only once I make a forum announcement here and blog post that Cloudron 7 is available.

                                    @girish my Cloudron instance was auto-upgraded to 7.0.3 last night. I have a lot of apps in Not Responding status, with a message on each :

                                    Restarting - Waiting for Cloudron to initialize

                                    I have rebooted the server using the System Info link.

                                    Not possible to cancel and retry tasks.

                                    Is there are any advice about getting these started ?

                                      @girish panic over
                                      They have all started now
                                      Seemed to take a looong time after server reboot
                                      Logs are difficult to interpret but seems like redis was struggling to get loaded.
                                      All seems ok for now
                                      Look forward to getting up to speed with 7.0 changes

                                        sorry if I am being blind or thick, but is there some kind of CHANGELOG for what's in 7.0 ~ 7.03

                                        This thread is too long and too broad for my little brain

                                          @timconsidine the changes are all listed in https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/blob/master/CHANGES#L2367 or they should also be shown in the notification about the update in your Cloudron dashboard.
