Zimbra Desktop Changelog

What's new in Zimbra Desktop 7.2.7 Build 12059

Aug 21, 2015
  • New features and fixes:
  • Important security issues fixed.
  • Yahoo mail sync issues resolved.
  • Java is no longer bundled inside the Zimbra Desktop package for Windows and Linux. Zimbra Desktop now detects and uses the Java available on the user's machine. As part of this development, a separate 64-bit Zimbra Desktop package is available for Windows.
  • Zimbra no longer ships a copy of trusted CA certificates inside the application, instead it now relies on Java's CA trust store for improved security.
  • Mac installer signing issue fixed, which was causing Zimbra Desktop to appear from an "unidentified developer".
  • Yahoo mail sync issue fixed, which was broken after Yahoo discontinued their web service mail API. IMAP/SMTP is now used for Yahoo mail sync.
  • Zimbra Desktop is updated with the latest timezone data.

New in Zimbra Desktop 7.2.5 Build 12038 (May 22, 2014)

  • New Features and Enhancements
  • Zimbra Desktop 7.2.5 includes updated branding, logos, and copyright notice.
  • Fixed Issues:
  • Fixed issue causing sync to cease when attempting to send email from a Yahoo! Mail Account. This affected all previous versions of Zimbra Desktop. Users are encouraged to upgrade to Zimbra Desktop 7.2.5 to avoid this issue.
  • Removed skins Lake, Oasis, Pebble, Tree and Twilight. If preference skin is not available, the default skin Carbon is used.

New in Zimbra Desktop 7.2.2 Build 11951 (Mar 26, 2013)

  • Major Issues Fixed:
  • Fixed issue causing selected language to revert to English (United States). Selected language now displays properly and does not revert.

New in Zimbra Desktop 7.1.4 Build 11273 (Mar 17, 2012)

  • Major New Feature Enhancements:
  • Users can move folders to “local folders” in Zimbra Desktop by dragging and dropping the folder to the desired location in “local folders”. The folder move might take some time before the move completes, in particular if the folder contains many messages, but also because the process of moving folders happens in the background. The move process copies the messages to the destination, and then deletes the messages from the source. (Bug 42542)

  • Support moving folder from mailbox accounts to “local folders” account.
