SOGo v5.12.0
Dear SOGo community,

The Alinto Team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of SOGo version 5.12.0
This is a major release of SOGo with new features, enhancements and a lot of bugfixes!
Important
This is a very big release that affects may sub-layers of SOGo. The best has been made but all the possible infrastructures and configurations can't be tested. As always, we will meticulously watch any new issues opened on our private and public bug trackers and the mailing list. We can't advise enough to first make the update on your dev/test/preprod server and/or have a way to rollback.

Known Issue with Iphone/Ipad
It seems that the latest updates of iOS, starting with 18.3.1, have broken the webmail of SOGo making buttons and some actions unusable. No workaround has been found yet and investigation will pursue on our side.

What's new with sogo 5.12.0
OpenId authentication
You can now configure SOGo do directly use an OpenId Server for the authentication. Please read carefully the documentation and note you wil surely have to configure your imap server as well.

DevContainer
To make it easier for the community to test and modify sogo, we make a devcontainer that you can use with Visual Code Studio. It will run all the services (imap, smtp, ldap, mariadb...) and sogo. And you can directly build sogo inside the container. Take a look at the readme.

Mail Purge
You can now add a parameter to your sogo.conf that will allow your users to soft delete or hard delete all their mails older than certain amount of time SOGoEnableMailCleaning = YES

Check password strength on login
If you have defined a password strength policy in your sogo.conf, SOGo will now check for weak password on user login. If the password is too weak, the user will have to change it before accessing the webmail.

Create Jitsi link when making event
A new parameter to allowed your user to create jitsi meeting link when making new events SOGoCalendarEnableJitsiLink = Yes;. You can also set the base url if you have your own jisti server with SOGoCalendarJitsiBaseUrl

What's next for sogo?
If you didn't know, the next sogo version has been announced with a complete overhaul. The current version will still be maintained and received patches. So, see you for the 5.12.1!
