[Open-Xchange Hosting Edition Maintenance Announcements]

Dear Customers of Open-Xchange,
 
This Release fixes a bug of Open-Xchange Server, Service Pack 5 (OX6 SP5). Although the severity is considered low the error becomes visible in nationalized (non-English, non-UTF-8) installations:
 
Bug 13145 - Server translations are not completely read in cases where the operating systems locales are non-utf8 
 
Effect: Special characters e.g. German umlauts or French accentuated characters are shown as strange symbols in
- some standard folder names (e.g. "Öffentliche Ordner")
- in notifications mails, when informing about appointment changes (e.g. "geändert")
 
Shipped Packages and Version:
Open-Xchange Server Build 6802
