v60.4 (Full Release Notes)
Haven’t posted updates in a while, but there are some here. And a very important bugfix.
If you’re running Power Mail-in-a-Box v60.0, v60.1, v60.2 or v60.3, please upgrade ASAP - there’s a sneaky yet annoying bug that could render the box unable to pretty much receive or send mail. Read below for more info.
- If you’re running Mail-in-a-Box v60.1 (the original project), you probably should wait until they release a patch of their own. Otherwise, if you want to migrate over, I recommend testing it out in a separate box since it looks like the migration process isn’t straightforward. See this thread for more info.
If you’re already unable to do either of these things, upgrading is enough to fix the problem. No further action needed.
A pretty sneaky yet nasty and devastating bug
If you or any of your users use it’s password changing plugin to - well, change their password - you’ll eventually find out that:
- You’ll be unable to send mail.
- You’ll be unable to receive mail.
- Re-running the setup, rebooting, etc. that will not solve the problem.
This was also reported in several threads in this forum.

Command-line conveniences
If you’re a fan of using the command line for admin tasks, things just got a tiny bit easier for you!
You can now use the alias miabadm
instead of having to cd into the mailinabox directory and doing management/cli.py
. Functionality remains otherwise the same.
Usage Example:
sudo miabadmn user admins
