LWsystems released Benno MailArchiv 2.4.0 a few days ago. The new release is available for download immediately. Customers with valid software maintenance can update to the new version free of charge.

Benno MailArchiv Release 2.4 brings several functional improvements and various bug fixes.

In addition to various functional enhancements (including the Benno MailArchiv WebApp), the most significant innovation is the introduction of the new system container: Every Benno MailArchiv installation will from now on manage an additional container designed for system-specific matters. The system container will be used in future releases of Benno MailArchiv for various tasks. Thus, the allocation of a valid license key in one of the upcoming versions of Benno MailArchiv will no longer require a license file. License keys will then be replaced by a specific email with the license key. This email will be automatically archived in the system container and used there as proof of a valid license.
The system container will also be used in the future for further compliance functionalities. For example, the installation of Benno MailArchiv updates will be automatically logged in the system container. Manual notes on the update performed are thus "auto-documented" and do not need to be manually noted in the GoBD procedure documentation. Relevant persons (auditors, reviewers, etc.) have read access to the system container.

The Benno MailArchiv Plugin for Kopano DeskApp and WebApp (Details on the Kopano plugin can be found here) is now available as an installable package for Debian GNU/Linux and Ubuntu.
