Fixed Issues

ZCS Fixed issue with SPNEGO authentication
ZCS Fixed an issue with SPAM assassin training.
ZCS If the table HTML is not correct such as unbalanced tags, it caused a new table to be created inside the original table. This issue is now fixed.
ZCS Fixed issue with backup when mailbox had large amount of data
ZCS Fixed an issue with spell check as it was not working for non-English locale
ZCS Fixed issue with backup when mailbox had large amount of data
ZCS Fixed an issue with searching and preview of .har files.
ZCO On profiles that have multiple stores mounted (e.g., delegated stores), Auto-Compaction is engaged for each store but repeats compaction of the primary ZDB instead of the mounted ZDBs.
ZCO The Run Filter feature is available in English only. Localization is in the next patch release.
ZCO Outlook's "Check Names" feature (Ctrl+K) filters out matches with diacritical marks (e.g., François Brûlé) when given a plain-text target (e.g., Francois). Type-down (aka autocomplete) is not affected.
ZCO When a calendar is shared, only the Owner will be allowed to delete the top-level calendar using ZCO, irrespective of the rights granted to other users.
Backup NG The default value for the Free Space Threshold value on NG Backup is now 2048Mb to improve usability.
Backup NG lost+found system folders within the NG Backup Path are now properly ignored, as those could have caused the purge operation to fail.
Mobile NG Mobile log lines will now always include the original IP address of the client.
Mobile NG The minimum value for the WindowSize setting is now 1, as 0 is not supposed to be used and could cause the sync to get stuck on some clients.
Mobile NG Fixed a bug that could cause the Content-type header not to be properly updated when forwarding a message from a client that uses the SmartForward EAS feature.
HSM NG The doCheckBlobs operation now includes Drive NG BLOBs.
Drive NG When choosing to save an attachment to Drive, the Home folder is now the default destination.
Drive NG Shares to accounts that don't exist anymore are now ignored and not shown anymore.
Drive NG Fixed a bug that caused the Save attachment to Drive feature to fail if the email containing the attachment was in a shared folder.
Drive NG UI translations have been updated.
Zimbra Connect Users can now send files via Connect, by either dragging and dropping one or more files to any Chat/Group conversation or using the "paperclip" icon. Files sent via Connect are uploaded on a dedicated, protected folder in the sender's Drive and will remain available to the receivers until deleted.
Zimbra Connect

Multiple Instant Meeting user experience improvements:

  • The Instant Meeting creation UI has been redesigned to be clearer and more usable;
  • Upon successfully adding an attendee to the list, a confirmation message will briefly appear under the "Add attendee email" box;
  • Internal users invited to an Instant Meeting will now always receive an email notification just like the one received by external users;
  • When creating an Instan Meeting, autocomplete from both GAL and Address Book is now available;
  • The "Save" button has been relabeled to "Start" to better describe its use;
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that caused the "Zimbra Connect" logo to appear twice in the Instant Meeting log-in page;
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause links sent or copy/pasted via chat to have garbage characters at the end.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that could cause the "message read" acknowledgment (two blue ticks) to be sent when the message was delivered.
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that stripped "hard" newlines in a message (e.g. by pressing SHIFT+Enter)
Zimbra Connect Fixed a bug that caused the "Last Seen" field to display the word "Now" for users that never used Talk or Connect.
Zimbra Connect The option to start an Instant Meeting or a Video Chat will be disabled if a user is logged in from a browser that does not support WebRTC.
Zimbra Connect UI translations have been updated and now include Spanish (es_ES), Portuguese (pt_PT) and Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR)

Known Issues

Zimbra Connect Beginning in 8.8.15, Chat History is ID-based instead of email-based: if a mailbox is deleted and then a new mailbox with the same email address is created, the history of the old mailbox will not be available to the new mailbox.
Zimbra Connect Files with special characters in their name sent via Connect will be saved as “file” instead of using the original filename.
Zimbra Connect Files with the “*” character in their name cannot be sent via Connect.
Zimbra Connect The “New Document/Spreadsheet/Presentation” button available in the Mail, Contacts, Calendar and Taks tab saves the document in the Briefcase - those buttons will now not appear if the Briefcase feature is disabled until a fix to create the document in Drive is available.
Drive NG The “Shared” Drive folder, which contains sent files, is not yet accessible. This will be fixed in 8.8.15p4.
