As anyone who uses Zimbra knows, we like to make cool stuff. A while back, we decided to make a rich mobile client for Zimbra Collaboration Suite which a regular phone could use to access Zimbra. We decided to base it on J2ME, a ubiquitous Java Runtime environment on many mobile devices, that allows it to run Java-based applications. The result is called ZimbraME-- and now it's ready for a wider audience.

Anyone who's had an iPhone, BlackBerry, or Windows Mobile phone knows that depending on how many accounts you have with different e-mail providers, you can end up with 5 different contact entries for one person. Raja, an Engineer here at Zimbra, wrote this cool Contact Cleaner zimlet which was is in Zimbra 5.0. I asked him to write up a blog post, and make a video. Enjoy! Continue reading...

Late last year, Zimbra introduced the world to a new way of thinking about AJAX applications. We took our powerful Web Client, and took it offline using technologies such as Jetty and Derby. Since then, Zimbra Desktop has been a hit, and our Engineers have been working hard to pack in new features. Well now, we've released Zimbra Desktop Beta 1.

One of the most important traits of Web 2.0 applications is low user-perceived latency in UI update, which usually requires low latency event notification from server to client. However due to the limitations of the HTTP protocol, a server cannot initiate communication with a client as events occur. Continue reading...

When you click on a mailto: link, most of the time your Firefox will launch that version of Outlook Express or Apple Mail you never configured. For the novice user, they click next, next, next, next, then send their e-mail...and it never gets delivered. Well using a greasemonkey script that we'll convert to a firefox extension, we can handle the mailto links. Continue reading...

Just when we thought it couldn’t get any simpler for organizations than downloading a pre-packaged messaging and collaboration solution like
Zimbra,
Red Hat’s RHX program finds a way. The Zimbra team is excited to participate in Red Hat’s RHX program. Zimbra’s
open source community members have often asked if they could download & evaluate, procure and get support for both the Red Hat infrastructure and Zimbra’s rich Ajax-based messaging and collaboration solution – all online and from a single source. The RHX program fulfills the community’s wishes by providing a pre-integrated and Red Hat certified Zimbra solution for RHEL. Continue reading...
