[appsuite-announce] Open-Xchange discontinues support for Open-Xchange Server 6

[Open-Xchange App Suite Maintenance Announcements]

Dear Customers of Open-Xchange,   

We would like to notify you that support for the following products will be discontinued from the 31st. March 2019:
Open-Xchange Server 6, OX Hosting Edition, OX Server Edition, OX Mobile Web Interface and OX Notifier.

Open-Xchange Server 6, OX Hosting Edition and OX Server Edition, was the first generation of scalable email and collaboration software produced by Open-Xchange for hosted environments. Our second-generation product, OX App Suite, launched five years ago in early 2013, and as a consequence we have decided to discontinue support of Open-Xchange Server 6 and end all maintenance activities.

Please note: Open-Xchange Server 6 packages will still be available on our software repositories and will work with the middleware version v7.8.4. but we will not provide any support and maintenance activities. Of course, Open-Xchange is going to keep the Open Source software of those products available to the public.

Upgrading to OX App Suite

OX App Suite is a modular platform designed to deliver a wide range of cloud-based services for telcos, hosters, and other providers. It includes email, file sharing, calendar & collaboration, text creation, time management, and storage solutions.

Available as either a hosted or an on-premises solution, OX App Suite is a highly scalable white-label platform that greatly increases user engagement and satisfaction. This enables providers to maximize their revenue by increasing customer retention, upselling, advertising potential and re-circulation.

Open-Xchange develops secure and open communication and collaboration software together with IMAP and DNS solutions. Hundreds of millions of users worldwide use Open-Xchange products at home, at work, and on the go.
