2.0: Outlook compatibility!

September 27, 2012

The Inverse Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of SOGo 2.0.0. This is a major release of SOGo which focuses on improved stability over previous versions and the addition of native Outlook compatibility support using OpenChange and Samba4. This means Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010 can talk directly to SOGo - just like if it was a Microsoft Exchange server. No plugins are required in Outlook to make this work.

Among the improvements since the previous SOGo release, there are :

• new inline date picker
• improved IE8/9 support
• added support for standard/daylight timezone definition with end date
• no longer possible to send a message multilpe times
• mail editor title now reflects the current message subject
• default language is selected on login page
• mail notifications now include the calendar name

Bug Fixes

• fixed translation of invitation replies
