What's Coming
Indirect Support Improvements
A core goal with every release is to reduce the need for support tickets in the first place, and 4.1 pushes that further than any release before it. MXroute wasn't built around scaling a support team to keep up with rising ticket volume. That approach only works for so long before quality starts to drop, because you can't stay competitive on pricing while continually hiring qualified people. It's the reason companies past a certain size end up hiring less qualified techs just to push answers out faster, quality be damned. The long-term effect of this release should be noticeably faster support responses.
CalDAV/CardDAV Performance and Reliability Deployed
We've rolled out a round of improvements to the CalDAV/CardDAV service at dav.mxroute.com. Calendar and contact syncs complete faster, and we've cut down on the errors that could cause a sync to fail and quietly retry in the background. If your client was occasionally slow to pick up changes or showed the odd sync error, this should clear most of that up. No action needed on your end, the changes are already live.
AI Spam Filtering In Development
We're working on an AI-powered spam filter built on an in-house LLM, so your mail is never handed off to a third-party AI provider for scoring. It's a fundamentally different approach to spam filtering than rule- and reputation-based systems, and early results suggest it changes the game for what's possible in catching modern spam.
SMTP Logs in the Control Panel In Development
Consistently functional and useful SMTP logs, available directly in the control panel at panel.mxroute.com. This covers all SMTP traffic, both inbound and outbound. The goal is logs that actually answer the question you came to ask, without needing to open a support ticket.
Self-Service Spam Filter Settings In Development
Many spam filter settings have historically been global, requiring a support ticket to adjust, and some couldn't be changed for an individual account at all. In 4.1, you'll be able to instantly adjust these on your own account, without contacting us, and without affecting anyone else on the server.
User-Configurable Spam Folder In Development
Choose where spam goes and when it gets there. You'll be able to pick the destination folder for filtered mail and set the score threshold that triggers the move, so you can tune the balance between aggressive filtering and inbox visibility to match how you actually use email.
Simplified Default Folders In Development
We're trimming the set of folders new email accounts start with down to the essentials, with standard names that match what you'd see at any major email provider. Instead of extra folders that many people never used, a new mailbox will begin with just the folders your email client expects, each one where you'd expect to find it.
The goal is a mailbox that looks familiar from the first login, with no leftover folders to clean up. This affects newly created accounts only, so existing mailboxes won't be touched.
In-House Webmail Client In Development
A new webmail client built and owned by MXroute. It's designed specifically to work with our systems, rather than being a generic third-party client we configure around, and is built to provide a solid experience on both desktop and mobile. More details will follow as it rolls out.
