About Versions (100)

1.7-rc

2025-12-12

The development team is pleased to announce the release candidate for the next major version 1.7 of Roundcube webmail!

With this milestone we introduce a few breaking changes (see below) and some further improvements in comparison to 1.7-beta2.

Some noteworthy changes are:

  • Add scope parameter to contact search (#9863)
  • Add ability to chose from all available contact fields on CSV import (#9419)
  • Add a new plugin called markdown_editor that provides an alternative editor to compose emails using Markdown syntax.
  • Add rel=‘noopener’ to all links opening in a new window to mitigate against misuse in older browsers.

Breaking Changes

  • Remove contact_search_name option in favor of contactlist_name_template (#9832)
  • Replace session attribute changed by expires_at (to allow for variable session lengths per-user in a future change).
  • Password: Removed the (insecure) virtualmin driver (#8007)

We believe it is production ready, but we recommend to test it on a separate environment.

Migrate existing configs with either the installto.sh or the update.sh scripts.

And don’t forget to backup your data before installing it!
