Community Edition: New in Scalix 11.4.2

Open, Unwired, Secure and Flexible

Administration. Distributed.

SAC has been extended in Scalix 11.4.2:

Delegated Administration - Allows the admin to define sub-administrators that can manage certain groups of users, as defined by a so-called mailnode. This allows departmental administrators to be defined. Also available in Hosting Edition, providing for full self-management of a hosted domain.

Scalix Web Access Unleashed

SWA offers the follwing new features in Scalix 11.4.2:

Overlay Calendars - Allows the user to see multiple calendars at the same time in day, week and month views. This makes it much easier to organize events and appointments in multiple personal calendars. It also allows the user to combine personal, public and other people's calendars in a single view for easier planning and scheduling.

Calendar Planning Mode - Allows the user to see multiple calendars in a planning sheet view at the same time at various scales, e.g. day, week, month. This allows for easy planning in teams, managing holiday calendars or doing team resource allocation.

Performance - Better useability through improved load times and multiple performance optimizations

Firefox 3 Support - SWA in Scalix 11.4.2 has been enhanced to work with Mozilla's latest browsers.

Theming - The look and feel - colors, logos and fonts - of SWA can now be customized to better match corporate identity or to blend in Scalix Web Access with overall portal design in hosted architecture. In addition, Scalix now comes with a new default theme, providing for a fresh look.

Theming and Localization Kits - Allows customers and Scalix partners to provide support for other languages, customized look and feel through themes and package these up to be shared and deployed in a clean and modular way.

Scalix Proxy Folders for Feeds

Scalix Proxy Folders offer new functionality where it is possible to setup server-side subscriptions to in-house and external data feeds.

WebCal and RSS/Atom - Subscribe to newsfeeds and publicly available calendar data such as national holidays, industry events listings or sports schedules.
Public or Private folders - Feeds can be mapped to a personal folder in a user's mailbox, then taken offline or re-shared with other users. They can also be applied to a public folder for company wide available information.
Available in all Clients - While feeds currently need to be setup by an administrator, they can be seen in all clients once established. The server will manage the feed, providing user access through Outlook, SWA, IMAP, CalDAV and more.

Scalix AntiSpam and ZeroHour AntiVirus

These add-on product modules for Scalix Enterprise Edition and Scalix Small Business Edition provide for world-class Junkmail and Malware protection powered by Commtouch's patented RPD technology.

Easy to setup - Software to use the subscription-based service is included in every version of Scalix and can be enabled with a license key
Easy to administer - The technology uses the Commtouch Detection Center online. Up to 97% of all incoming spam is detected and blocked without any filter training or configuration.
Flexible Deployment - The Spam filter can be implemented right on the Scalix server and - in Scalix Enterprise Edition - on a dedicated gateway machine

The Scalix CalDAV Server has been enhanced with more functionality:

iCal Scheduling - Based on the CalDAV-Schedule draft standard, Scalix now supports appointment scheduling and access to Free/Busy information for Apple's iCal client (part of Mac OS/X 10.5 "Leopard")
iCal Calendar Management - Allows the user to create new calendars in iCal, with calendar attributes such as color stored on the Scalix server
