March 6, 2024

• BUGFIX: Fix permission errors when event organizer tries to modify events.

March 5, 2024

• CHANGE: Switched DKIM signing to a 2048-bit key, as required by iCloud and others.
• CHANGE: Strip any 'ARC' related headers from incoming group emails.
• BUGFIX: In some instances, when uploading a directory to the Files section, one of the files would be rejected if it was at the top level.
• CHANGE: For group messages, we now change the Date header to be the current date/time when we send the message to members. This is because some mail servers will reject messages with a Date that is too far in the future or past. We do not modify the Date header as it is stored in the archives.

• SYSADMIN: A bunch of security changes to the production fleet.

February 28, 2024

• SYSADMIN: Fixed incomplete SPF DNS records for \*.groups.io subdomains.
• INTERNAL: Revamped our DNS publishing system.
• CHANGE: We're now publishing 'DMARC p=none' records for all domains and subdomains that we host. This is to comply with recent Gmail changes.

February 27, 2024

• BUGFIX: When editing an existing message with a video attachment, you couldn't check the checkbox to delete the attachment. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/104519731#37561
• BUGFIX: Fixed screen reader support for the labels on poll results.

February 26, 2024

• NEW: New calendar events will default to RSVP being checked.
• NEW: New calendar events will by default populate the Organizer Name and Organizer Email fields with the person creating the event.
• NEW: If the Organizer Email matches a different member, that member also has the ability to edit the event.
• CHANGE: The "By" line when viewing an event has been removed.
• CHANGE: For new single events that request an RSVP and that don't have a maximum number of attendees, I've changed the ICS attachment that's sent to the group so that Outlook and Gmail will now display the Yes/Maybe/No buttons, and will display the Organizer, if there is one.
• CHANGE: Clicking the Yes/Maybe/No buttons in Outlook or Gmail will update your response on the Groups.io website.

February 22, 2024

• BUGFIX: In some very rare instances, when trying to display a message on the website, we'd improperly decode a message part, causing an error and the message to not be displayed.
• SYSADMIN: Begin warm-up process for our remaining new email servers; contact various email service providers asking them to allow email from these servers.
• INTERNAL: Improve our email server monitoring systems to make it easier to deal with additional email servers.
