We are pleased to announce the release of the latest version in the Atmail 5.x series. The new Atmail 5.7 release fixes several bugs and also includes several new improvements for the 5.x series. We encourage our exisiting Atmail 5.x clients who cannot yet upgrade to the Atmail 6.x series to upgrade to this latest 5 series release. This latest version in the 5 series includes upgraded SpamAssassin* for improved Spam detection, upgraded ClamAV* for improved virus removal, improved internationalization and fixes XUL display for Firefox 3.x. A comprehensive list of changes is below.

The Atmail 5.x series will continue to be developed during 2010, with an eventual end of life in January 2011, beyond which no further releases in the 5.x series will be made and a switch to the 6.x series will be necessary if you wish to continue to receive important software updates. If your Atmail 5.x license has expired and you wish to renew for one more year please visit our license renewal page.
(* Applies only to Atmail Server version)
