New features and improvements include:

New Calendar Server

New and improved Calendar Server (CalDAV) which is w ritten in PHP and stores calendar data within MySQL. Dramatic performance improvement over the previous Darwin (Python) serv er used by Atmail, up to 75% lighter and faster. The WebUI for the calendar is now more responsive, and supports external ac cess from iOS and desktop clients.

New Contact Server

Atmail now includes a Contact Server (CardDAV) which is bundled within the new Calendar server framework. Users can add, delete and modify contacts via the WebUI of Atmail and automatically push the updates to their supported mobile (iOS, Android) or desktop client (Mac Lion, Thunderbird, and suppor ted CardDAV clients)

iOS Provisioning - One click setup

iOS users (iPhone, iPad, iPod) can now use "1-click" provisioning to automatically setup their device for email, calendaring and contacts. No hostname, protocols and ports requ ired, the Administrator can configure global settings and make these available to local user accounts. iOS users just need t o navigate to the URL of Atmail and follow the iOS provisioning wizard, simplifying deployments within an organisation or IS P.

ActiveSync Global Address-list (GAL)

Atmail now supports the global address-list (GAL) fo r ActiveSync devices. Via your Windows Mobile, Android or iOS device the global address-list is available for end users to s earch and lookup records within the organisation. The GAL can be defined at the users domain level or site-wide via the Atma il administration panel.

Read-only calendars

Now supporting read-only permissions on calendars, u sers can publish calendars within the organization and set read-only or read-write permissions for specified users. Perfect for creating public calendars where the administrator can set events, and end-users receive a read-only version of the calen dar. Read-only calendars are available via the WebUI of Atmail, mobile CalDAV and desktop clients.

Log CSV Export

Administrators can now CSV export log files from the Webadmin. Verbose logs for Logins, Received Mail, Sent Mail, Spam and Viruses can be exported in CSV files for accounting a nd reporting purposes. Includes support for sub-administrators to export log data for their delegated users/domains.
