What's coming in 7.3

[nebulon]

Thanks for the feedback, I will revise the UI bits there. Currently we do not check health of the external url, but I had this in my stash for a release where we maybe focus a bit more on the healthcheck and uptime reporting, but I agree without that the "running" label really makes no sense.

@nebulon The running health-check makes sense to me, especially for other self-hosted apps on their own separate servers. Perhaps just a tick-box to enable?

What doesn't make sense to me is the Running text for non-admins though, the text has no utility to a user that expects all things to be running anyway, unless told otherwise, in which case then text can be shown to say whatever else might be happening that isn't running.

@marcusquinn I don't think the app status is displayed for non-admin users but I will double check.

[plusone-nick]

@girish it is displayed

adding external links is a great feature. i’d imagine it’d be so useful.

i sometimes wanted to add a little note (welcome note or quick first-time user guide) for the new users - with no logins or complicated passwords to remember of that sort. You’ve just given me a great idea. With the meemo note link, i think this could finally get done.

External app links in Dashboard

@nebulon said in What's coming in 7.3:

We have added the external app link support now as well. You can think of this as basically some bookmark system to allow putting plain URLs as links into the dashboard to provide organizations a way to use the Cloudron dashboard as a landing page for their users. The link visibility works the same way as for any other app and generally those links look just like apps on the Cloudron.

The UI is currently being finalized but looks mostly like this:

I'm really wanting this today!

Have we got a rough guestimate of when 7.3 will be out?

(mail) VERP and bounce management for mailtrain and mautic

What about Listmonk? (or does that have such stuff built in already?)

[marcusquinn]

@nebulon I don't suppose you could make a way for all of us that have created Surfer apps with html meta refresh to a URL to convert all those apps to these new External Link shortcut apps? I have dozens of them!

[girish]

@jdaviescoates IIRC, Listmonk is able to uses POP3 to read bounce emails and unsubscribe.

Filebase integration is not possible at the moment because of https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/5171/add-storj-and-filebase-as-backup-options/8

[girish]

(mail) VERP and bounce management for mailtrain and mautic
(mail) send as subaddress

These are implemented now.

@girish said in What's coming in 7.3:

(mail) wildcard aliases

Just implemented this. Can add wildcard aliases using '*'.

[girish]

Mailbox quota is implemented:

[plusone-nick]

@girish really looking forward to external links. Is there any projected release date for 7.3?

@girish said in What's coming in 7.3:

Mailbox quota is implemented:

Uhhh very nice! Will there be a warning via email so users know that they're running low on space and what happens if the storage is already over quota? Will there be auto-replies that the mailbox is full?

[girish]

@msbt said in What's coming in 7.3:

Will there be a warning via email so users know that they're running low on space

Yes. Two mails are sent to the user - one for 80% full and another for 95% full. Apps like roundcube also show the quota bar on the main screen.

Will there be auto-replies that the mailbox is full?

Mails will bounce with Quota Exceeded message.

There are also events in the mail event log for quota exceeded and when it falls below 80%.

Just preparing the release. Updated the changelog if anyone is interested - https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/blob/master/CHANGES#L2511 . The CI is running now, hopefully this is done this week.

This may be minor, but may I suggest the changelogs be sorted alphabetically so that we can see related changes easier per function (i.e. mail)?

If we did that, not only would it make it easier for admins to read and parse, but the development team could detect duplicate entries in the changelog easier

Note that there are two duplicate entries such as the following:

• mail: fix issue where signature was appended to text attachments
• mail: catch all address can be any domain

Sorted alphabetically:

* Applinks - app bookmarks in dashboard
* IPv6: initial support for ipv6 only server
* Proxied apps
* Randomize certificate generation cronjob to lighten load on Let's Encrypt servers
* UI: fix issue where mailbox display name was not init correctly
* User directory: Cloudron connector uses 2FA auth
* acme: Randomize certificate renewal check over a whole day
* backups: Fix precondition check which was not erroring if mount is missing
* backups: allow space in label name
* backups: optional encryption of backup file names
* eventlog: add event for impersonated user login
* filemanager: add split view
* graphs: cgroup v2 support
* graphs: show app disk usage graphs
* ldap & user directory: Remove virtual user and admin groups
* ldap: remove virtual user and admin groups to ldap user records
* mail: accept only STARTTLS servers for relay
* mail: add queue management API and UI
* mail: add storage quota support
* mail: allow aliases to have wildcard
* mail: catch all address can be any domain
* mail: catch all address can be any domain
* mail: fix crash when solr is enabled on Ubuntu 22 (cgroup v2 detection fix)
* mail: fix issue where certificate renewal did not restart the mail container properly
* mail: fix issue where signature was appended to text attachments
* mail: fix issue where signature was appended to text attachments
* nginx: fix zero length certs when out of disk space
* notification: Fix crash when backupId is null
* port bindings: add read only flag
* proxyAuth: add supportsBearerAuth flag
* redis: restart button will now rebuild if the container is missing
* wasabi: add singapore and sydney regions

@d19dotca that's a good idea for the public release notes, I have made it alphabetical there (this is the one you see when you click update on Cloudron, usually it is more high level and not commit based). This changelog in the repo is really just internal and not meant to be read by end users. I know I posted it on the forum, but was just trying to give a heads up for curious people
