    Edit: tbh not particularly excited by this, because I'm more excited about having BBB on Cloudron and that isnt' even compatible with 18.04 yet!

    And the worst is, they're explicitly putting all of the work in making BBB compatible with 18.04 first and they have no plans for 20.04.

    @girish Absolutely. I wasn't suggesting to implement it "now-now". More the case of suggesting to gather data earlier (could be done at any time really), so that when it came to thinking about implementation, you had some data to base decisions on.

    To get enough data I'd suggest running the research for ~ 2-3 weeks. Analysis would be much quicker ~days. I'll happy to help with both.

    Another brief update:

    • We added auth wall functionality that apps without any notion of login can use
    • i18n is mostly done, just lots of testing before we let translators do their work. @nebulon can give some updates on how the language is selected etc.
    • We added httpPaths functionality so that @MooCloud_Matt can work on his OLS app. Also, see https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3755/apache-ols-and-nginx-custom-benchmarks/5
    • Reworked a lot of the internal dns stuff, so that we can have apps as dns servers (ad blocker apps)
    • solr fts search was merged today.

    Looks like we are set for a release next week!

    @doodlemania2 unfortunately not, in fact I forgot about it 😕

    I have put it now into milestone for 6.1 so this does not happen again. Sorry about that.

    solr fts search was merged today.

    This is great... but I'm intrigued to how exactly we'll be able to take advantage of it e.g. to search email/ files?

    Will Cloudron Roundcube/ Rainloop/ Sogo, Nextcloud Mail somehow automagically take advantage of solr? or what?

    I guess the same applies to Nextcloud files too - will search files on there somehow benefit from the power of solr?

    Thanks!

    That's the idea, yes. To keep excitement in control, from my testing, the fts has real benefits only if you lots of email (like say 2GB and more). You also need a lot of RAM to run solr (like 3GB). The feature is turned off by default for this reason.

    I guess the same applies to Nextcloud files too - will search files on there somehow benefit from the power of solr?

    Unfortunately, no. I think there was this nextcloud app called nextant back in the day which used solr. That app was however deprecated and they moved to this fulltextsearch app. The fulltextsearch app can have multiple backends but afaik there is only an elastic search backend (someone has to write a solr backend).

    OK, thanks.

    I guess part of what I'm asking is does having solr enabled some allow for using some Gmail-style search operators like from: to: in:sent has:attachment etc?

    I'm guessing perhaps not and that such things would need to be built in/ added to the webmail clients themselves? But I'm unclear 🙂

    Right, those features like operators have to come from mail clients themselves. Note that solr is actually not adding anything new to what is already there. It's just making search faster internally by having an index.

    Looks like someone started to make one, but there hasn't been any updates since Jun 2019 😕

    Thanks. I so wish there were better open webmail clients. Mailpile does most of what I want but development has seemingly largely stalled 😕

    Roundcube at least has these:

    @jdaviescoates 👍 for Roundcube, the others didn't pass my short attention span for acceptable daily-drivers 😬

    @marcusquinn Nothing to do with 6.0 but since webmail distracted, I think EspoCRM is worth a mention as a webmail client, which I'm intending to give a whirl soon. Don't know how performant the search will be in that but will share feedback as I do.

    It does seem the best of bad bunch (it's the second most popular after Mailpile on https://selfhosted.libhunt.com/categories/1665-webmail-clients ), but frustrating that e.g. it seemingly can't be used to set-up filters and so need to use Rainloop for that. The state of open source webmail really is bad 😞

    @jdaviescoates I think roundcube is the best of the lot. But also, the desktop and mobile clients are quite great though.

    I use rainloop as I use nextcloud contacts and calendars and it made sense for my users to have their webmail in the same app. But also not have to deal with the absolute garbage that is Nextcloud Mail.

    To be fair, it is pretty new and getting better. One day it might even be the best! (but not today).

    I can't really remember properly, but I think it recently added a way to have multiple identities and to easily switch between them, something which is missing from some of the others (I forget which).

    @jdaviescoates True. One thing that was frustrating was 1) the lack of filters and 2) no way to integrate with cloudron mail like the Rainloop app in Nextcloud.

    Also there was a point where new emails just stopped coming through on there. Got mad and switched.
