OpsMailmanager release 1.6 announced

08 Nov, 2009, Reading, UK

Opsera Limited, the UK's leading provider of Open Source software and services today announce the release of OpsMailmanager v1.6.

OpsMailmanager automates the filing of email messages and attachments into Alfresco's Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software. Using the IMAP standard to work with all major email clients - including MS Outlook, Lotus Notes, Thunderbird and Novell Groupwise - OpsMailmanager improves your organisational efficiency, reduces information duplication and saves expensive storage space.

By storing emails alongside other documents, you can share, search and secure all your organisations' information in one place, and boost collaboration.

OpsMailmanager and Alfresco ECM together enable organisations to implement an integrated email and document information management strategy that benefits from the openness and cost effectiveness of an Open Source software subscription model.

In response to customer feedback, Version 1.6 makes OpsMailmanager more customisable for deployment in large organisations as well as adding performance improvements.

The release includes the following significant enhancements:

• Improved preview of emails from within Alfresco Explorer
• Users can configure which folder should be displayed as top folder in their email client
• The email filing engine can use multiple filing folder structures, per department for example
• It is now possible to configure the Alfresco folders that should be set up as IMAP folders, which improves performance and usability
• Improved performance with caching of MIME HEADERS and SIZE
• Apache James and Log4J configuration files location can now be customized to persist between webapp deployments
• Log4J configuration is now done according to Alfresco Module Log4J recommendations
