Afternoon folks!

I have just released a new beta 5.18-1.

This is mostly a "feature" release, but does also include fixes for any 
bugs I have been told about.

New features this time around:
* Users can remove unwanted addresses from their address book.
* Lists of drop-offs now indicate encrypted drop-offs and picked-up 
drop-offs.
* Selecting a drop-off from a list opens it in a new tab.
* Sending a request for a drop-off is now scriptable.
* upgrade and upgrade_preferences_php handle authenticator settings 
(particular LDAP!) much better.

See the download and installation instructions for the beta at
*https://zend.to/beta.php*

Please try it out and let me know as soon as possible if you find any 
problems. And also tell me what you think of the new features and how 
they could be improved!

Here is the full Change Log:

- Autocomplete list of address book matches when entering recipients now 
has an "X" button at the end of each line which deletes that entry.
- Lists of drop-offs now show if the drop-off has been picked up, and if 
it was encrypted.
- Selecting a drop-off from any list of drop-offs now shows it in a new tab.
- New command /opt/zendto/bin/autorequest will generate a request for a 
drop-off from a script. Run it with no parameters to see the usage. If 
you want to use this, you will need to create a user specifically for 
the automation to use, and set it in the new 'automationUsers' setting 
in preferences.php. The autorequest gives you a return code back and a 
bit of JSON to say what happened.
- "upgrade_preferences_php", and hence also "upgrade", have been 
improved to fix problems for people using LDAP but not AD, as they 
highlighted a lacking in the intelligence of the tool.
- Lists of drop-offs show a tooltip explaining the "Picked up" column.
- Log clean virus scans of new drop-offs as well as viruses and errors.
- Logo image should display better now if it's a bit too tall.
- Security fix highlighted by Michael Radford. All users should upgrade.
- Fixed string formatting bug when a user tries to send a drop-off 
request with a Subject: line that is too long. Thanks for Tobias Tafart 
for this fix!
- Installer for RHEL8 is now working, except for ClamAV which needs to 
come from EPEL but there isn't an EPEL archive for RHEL8/CentOS8 yet. 
Don't want to use the 7 archive as I'm hoping the clamd problems will 
get fixed.

Cheers,

Jules
