Font size in Compose screen

There are font size increase/decrease buttons in the lower left corner of Webmail, and these also control the font size in the Compose window in Runbox 5 Basic mode.

Now we have fixed a bug so it also works in Runbox 5 Enhanced mode where the Compose screen opens in a new window.

It doesn’t yet work when writing HTML messages since the HTML editor (TinyMCE) is a separate program and isn’t entirely integrated with Runbox.

For more information about the different versions of Runbox, please see the Webmail Help page.

Extended website security

The Runbox website is now protected by an Extended Validation Certificate when in secure mode at https://secure.runbox.com. This is usually indicated by a green address bar in your browser.

This certificate independently verifies the identity of our company as the owner of the domain runbox.com, meaning that visitors can be certain the web pages they see are legitimate.

We recommend you always be aware of the domain name shown in your browser, especially after clicking links in email messages, to prevent so-called phishing.

We also recommend using secure mode (SSL) when logging on to Runbox. You can enable this in your browser by clicking the “Secure” link next to the login fields on the front page.

New message search in Beta

We’re happy to announce that the long-awaited full message search function is now available in closed Beta test, so let us know if you’d like to try searching ALL your Runbox email and we’ll enable it for you!

UPDATE: You can now enable the new search function by using one of these links:

RMM5: https://beta.runbox.com/mail?enable_new_search=1
Runbox6: https://runbox.com/mail?enable_new_search=1

If you happen to have a lot of messages in your account that you do not need indexed (such as spam), we recommend that you delete them first to speed up the initial indexing.

UPDATE 2: We’ve had some problems creating search indices, and are working to straighten these out. If you don’t get the new search field within a reasonable time after clicking the above link, please try again in a while.

Upgraded Contacts interface

We’ve upgraded the Runbox Contacts section today, making it much easier to manage contacts:

  • Expandable contact group tree in the left-hand pane
  • Support for multiple groups per contact
  • Improved Add/Edit Contact window

We’re also planning to implement drag-and-drop functionality.

Any feedback welcome! 🙂

HTML signatures in Webmail

The signature field in Webmail:Preferences now supports rich text (HTML), and you can format your signatures using the buttons below the field.

Note that each folder can have its own set of preferences, so you can set one signature per folder. When writing a new message, the signature that was set for the corresponding folder profile will be inserted, and can be manually updated to that of another folder profile (by using the “Update sign.” button in Compose).

Improved message selection

In Webmail, you can now select multiple messages by using the Shift key while clicking the messages, instead of having to check each checkbox individually. You can click anywhere in the message list rows (except for the actual links) to select a message.

The messages can then be e.g. moved to a folder by dragging one of the subject strings to the desired folder.

This makes it a lot easier to move or delete many messages at a time!
