Version History

Version	1.17.0.0
Date:	14 Sep 2022
New:	Azure AD Graph API and Azure Active Directory Authentication Library (ADAL) have been replaced with more secure and resilient Microsoft Graph API and Microsoft Authentication Library (MSAL), respectively. These components are used when configuring the Sent Items Update service for a hybrid environment, which requires registering CodeTwo Exchange Rules in Azure Active Directory of a Microsoft 365 tenant.
New:	The Microsoft 365 cloud step has been removed from the Sent Items Update configuration wizard for a hybrid environment. The Office 365 Germany cloud has been deprecated by Microsoft.
New:	The new version of CodeTwo Exchange Rules Converter now lets you automatically transfer rules with the Auto respond action to CodeTwo Email Signatures 365. The transferred rules are available in the signature management app, under the Autoresponders group.
New:	Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2 or higher is now required to install the Administration Panel. The program’s installer can automatically download and install the required version of .NET Framework.
Fixed:	Minor bug fixes.

Version	1.16.0.0
Date:	31 Jan 2022
New:	New simplified version of the HTML template editor, designed for intuitive use. The simplified editor experience is available: on the Secure messages tab in the program's settings, in Rules Tester, when composing a test email.
New:	Upon opening the template library, the user is now asked to allow the program to download predefined templates from an external (CodeTwo) resource.

Version	1.15.2.0
Date:	27 Oct 2021

Version	1.15.0.0
Date:	09 Jun 2021
New:	New HTML signature template editor, designed to make composing signatures much easier, faster and more intuitive.
New:	New signature template library. It contains many predefined signature templates that can be quickly customized before loading them into the editor for further processing.
New:	Conditional placeholders added to the signature template editor. This feature lets you create custom placeholders that can contain multiple values. Which value replaces a conditional placeholder in a signature depends on a set of user-defined conditions that are checked as the signature is added to an email. Conditional placeholders can be used e.g. to add a generic phone number to an email signature if a sender has no phone number specified in AD, or to insert different marketing banners for selected users only.
New:	CodeTwo Exchange Rules Converter, a stand-alone application that lets you automatically transfer your email signatures, signature adding rules and custom placeholders to the cloud signature product - CodeTwo Email Signatures 365.

The program can perform the registration automatically (Microsoft 365 global admin account required), or you can choose to register the program yourself.
New:	The program can now process messages that contain the CalendarPart property.
