[ZendTo] ANNOUNCE: 5.11 released

[Jules Field]

Folks,

I have just released version 5.11 of ZendTo.

Most of the changes are relatively minor, but fix a few requests from 
people who have been using 5.10.

- Mail by default all comes from the address set in zendto.conf (as it 
did before 5.10). If you need to change this to the behaviour displayed 
by 5.10, there is a 'SMTPsetFromToSender' you can set to true.
- All logins from non-local IP addresses can be disabled by setting 
'allowExternalLogins' to false.
- Your value for the "OrganizationShortType" in zendto.conf should now 
include "the" on the front. This is to make it much easier for a lot of 
organisations to customise the user interface without having to edit 
language strings in zendto.po files.
- The main menu no longer shows the "Login" button if the mini login box 
is also showing.
- The installer now fully supports installation of the crypto library on 
all supported platforms (SUSE and openSUSE were missing).

Notes for upgrading:

* If you are upgrading from 5.10, then yum/apt/zypper should do what you 
need, followed by the usual upgrade_preferences_php and upgrade_zendto_conf.
* If you are upgrading from before 5.10, then please download and run 
the installer from
     http://zend.to/downloads.php#installer
* PLEASE remember to run upgrade_preferences_php and upgrade_zendto_conf 
as there are changes/additions in both files.

Please let me know what you think!

The full Change log is:
- New preferences.php setting 'SMTPsetFromToSender' to control whether email
   messages sent by Zendto always come from the address in zendto.conf 
(false)
   or whether, where possible, the sender address should be set to the
   address of the person to whom replies would go (true).
   Before 5.10 this was always false, 5.10 changed the behaviour to true.
   The default is now false again, but you can set it yourselves as needed.
   Those using Exchange or Office365 as their SMTP server should leave this
   set to false, as Exchange doesn't let you send mail as anyone except
   addresses belonging to the username you logged in as (ie SMTPusername).
- New preferences.php setting 'allowExternalLogins' (true by default). It
   can be used to stop people outside local IPs being able to login at all.
   Apparently a few sites need this.
- Changed "OrganizationShortType" in zendto.conf so it includes "the" as
   well as the word "University" or "Company" or whatever you chose.
   YOU WILL NEED TO CHANGE YOUR zendto.conf FILE TO ADD "the".
   upgrade_zendto_conf will warn you about this.
- For the LDAP authenticator, there is a new setting 'authLDAPEmailAttr'
   to be used if email addresses are not stored in the 'mail' attribute.
- Added cron job every 4 hours to delete incoming files older than 4 hours.
   This should help to keep /var/zendto/incoming clean.
- Installer now fully supports encryption/decryption on SUSE and openSUSE.
- Added notes in preferences.php on how to disable the checksum and/or
   encryption features.
- Added notes in preferences.php about when and how to use SMTPdebug
   correctly.
- Removed big blue "Login" button from main menu "column of buttons" if
   the mini login box is also showing.
- Improved wording under mini login box.
- Updated copy of moment.js, used when sorting drop-offs by date.
- Double-checked to ensure cookies are always https-only when using an
   https site (cookie_secure flag).


Cheers,

Jules
