Improved piler-smtp performance#

There are 2 new variables in /etc/piler/piler.conf.

max_message_size sets the max. message size that piler-smtp accepts The default value is 50000000 bytes (~50 MB)

max_smtp_memory limits the max. available memory to buffer messages. when this limit is exceeded, no new emails will be accepted until the used memory for all in progress emails decreases below this level.

The default value is 500000000 bytes (~500 MB)

Be sure to adjust these values to your environment!

Improved displaying of large messages#

If the textual part of the message to display is larger then 100 kB, then truncate the displayed content at 100kB. To override the threshold value use the following config entry in /etc/piler/config-site.php:

$config['MAX_CONTENT_LENGTH_TO_DISPLAY'] = 100000;

New authentication providers#

SAML 2.0 support

Ping identity support

Redact messages#

The feature allows you to replace certain words or phrases with a predefined text, eg. !REDACTEDTEXT!. See https://mailpiler.com/redact-feature/ for more.

Fine grained permissions#

You may grant permission for actions on messages (view, headers, journal, download/restore, export, pdf) for users in order to restrict what they can do with the messages, eg. only view and download, but not forward it, etc.

See https://mailpiler.com/permission-profiles/ for more.

External warning#

You may show a warning to the preview window when displaying an external email. Note that it requires you to add all your company domains on the gui.

Also be sure to customize the EXTERNAL_EMAIL_WARNING_TEXT variable, see the default in /var/piler/www/config.php.

Set the following in /etc/piler/config-site.php to disable this warning:

$config['EXTERNAL_EMAIL_WARNING_TEXT'] = '';
