[Olox2-beta] Open-Xchange Releases Partner Beta 3 - v.6.17.71 of OXtender 2 for Microsoft Outlook®

["Karl-Heinz Graßer"]

Dear beta tester,
 
This is a Beta Release v.6.17.71 of OXtender 2 for Microsoft Outlook®. This release is meant for Open-Xchange integration partners and knowledgeable customers who are willing to try out the tool and provide feedback to Open-Xchange. The release is available for all, with a valid Open-Xchange license.
 
With the current available version we highly recommend to create a new profile because we changed the initial sync and some UUID handling. The initial sync can take some time. The sync cycles through all folders and synchronizes some objects from the folder and then takes the next folder. If objects are created or changed, these objects are processed when the sync actions comes again into the folder where the action took place. This means new mails or changed appointment are delayed a short amount of time. After the initial sync all objects are transferred directly and only with a very small delay. There is a server option to synchronized only objects from a given timeframe, two years in the past and one year in the future.
 
Please Note: Open-Xchange Server 6.18.2 or later is required to operate this extension. To get in favor of the latest minor features and bug fixes, you need to have a valid license. The article how that can be done:
