Version 3.2.106 - 3.2.108

  • Internal Optimization

Version 3.2.105

  • Since Outlook version 2013, Outlook uses a 'INTERSTOR/Internet Folders provider' and saves all appointments online or in the IMAP folder and also local. This completely breaks with the way Outlook operated in previous versions and how it currently operates when connected to Exchange.

Version 3.2.104

  • When you setup a customized ‘External Subject line’ in the SuperOffice CRM Settings of the Synchronizer admin, the data from the subject line is no longer added in the body field.
  • When using the Outlook Synchronizer in a Terminal Server you could receive a 'fatal error' during the closing of the Synchronizer. During the execution of the /STOP command the synchronizer was looking to all sync processes, also those of other users. With the new UAC policy the path of those processes may no longer be retrieved.

We have solved the problem in this new 3.2.58 version. You do need to place an extra file in the Synchronizer folder; 'mapi.opt'. It's attached to this document.
