* New Features

************************************************** **********************

1. Added RoundCube web mail client.

2. Added a support ticketing system integrated with the control panel. Tickets will be tracked by user <ID> and name for easier admin tracking. Notification will be made to the admin when new tickets are submitted and users will be notified when replies are made by the admin and vice versa.

3. Added a robust E-Mail anti-spam solution that can be activated for each E-Mail account. Spam can be filtered by sender E-Mail address, domain, and keywords. E-Mail scanning will happen at the user mail account level so filtering will occur no matter what web mail client is used.

************************************************************************

* Bug Fixes

3. GUI error messages and table styles are all uniform throughout the entire system now.

4. The accordion functionality in the client control panel on the software & htaccess management pages has been fixed.

5. Bugs in the administration area plan maintenance (extras) section have been fixed. When adding categories you would have to manually reload the page for those categories to appear under the options.
