Good afternoon,

Z-Push 2.0.7 has been built at RPM Fusion for Fedora Rawhide, 18, 17 as
well as for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 5 - and should be pushed to the
testing updates repository within the next days at latest.

IMPORTANT: If you did not yet upgrade from Z-Push 1.5.x series, this is a
major update which requires manual work, like configuration file changes:

Z-Push 2.0.7 [1690]
===================


Notes
=====

- In this version new features like the support for S/MIME signing and
  encryption/decryption of messages on the mobile have been implemented.
- Reply/Forward flags sync from the server to the mobile was implemented.
- Several fixes from 2.1 were also merged into this release
- Heartbeat connections should work as expected now and not cause sync on
  every folder.


S/MIME
======

The following refers to Zarafa backend only: In order to use S/MIME for
email signing and/or encryption on your mobile device there are some
requirements. First of all you will need an email certificate. Acquiring it
is beyond of the scope of this document. Configuring certifications in
AD/LDAP is also not covered here but there are various sites covering it.
Later the will be a more extensive configuration manual available. The
private key must be imported to the mobile device. It can be achieved
either sending yourself an email with the key or uploading it onto the
storage card. The key must be in PKCS-format (.p12). It can be exported
e.g. using windows mmc console. It is also possible to retrieve the key
using Firefox certificates' backup (if you have installed the certificate
using Firefox). Once you've imported it, in your active sync account
settings there's security options where you can select the key. It might be
possible that PHP functions require CA information in order to validate
certs. Therefore the CAINFO parameter in the line 101 of config.php must be
configured propertly. The public keys for encryption are retrieved either
from the global address book or the contacts. In Active Directory the
public key for contacts from GAB is saved in PR_EMS_AB_TAGGED_X509_CERT
(0x8C6A1102) property and if you save a key in a contact it's
PR_USER_X509_CERTIFICATE (0x3A701102). In LDAP public key for contacts from
GAB is saved in userCertificate property. It should be mapped to 0x3A220102
in ldap.propmap.cfg (0x3A220102 = userCertificate). Make sure it looks like
this in LDAP: userCertificate;binary:: MIIFGjCCBAKgAwIBAgIQbRnqpxlPa...
Currently only Android 4.X and higher and iOS 5 and higher devices are
known to support encryption/signing of emails.
