I cannot access my email mailbox since yesterday. Keep getting a message about CAPS on which I have checked and could not find any fault. Please assist.
You can also contact me via thecenturion548@gmail.com

Is there a better way of tracking for updates/patches than looking at this blog?. You have implemented this command /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmcheckversion in Zimbra. But it will nog check on Patches.

If not, please update command /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmcheckversion to check for Patches.

Hi Dennis,
Right now the zmcheckversion only checks for major/minor versions, not patches.

We are working to improve this for Zimbra 9.0.

Thank you for your feedback.
