Choose a tag to compare

@github-actions github-actions released this 26 Sep 08:26

Download Dovecot-Mailbox-Viewer-Windows.exe below and double-click it. No installer, ZIP extraction, Python installation or separate _internal folder is needed. For Windows 10/11 (64-bit). Startup can take a few seconds while bundled files unpack automatically. Your original backup stays unchanged.

Linux: download Dovecot-Mailbox-Viewer-Linux-x86_64.AppImage, mark it executable and launch it. Targets x86-64 desktops with glibc 2.35+ and X11/XWayland. If mounting is restricted, launch with --appimage-extract-and-run. No Python installation is required.

Added

  • A portable 64-bit Linux AppImage alongside the Windows executable.
  • Desktop launcher and icon, with no Python installation required for the AppImage.
  • Automated AppImage import/search/export checks on Ubuntu 22.04, plus clean
    Ubuntu 24.04 and Debian 13 runtime checks before publication.
  • Linux dependency notices, native-file inventory and AppImage runtime/library
    source archives, with checksums alongside the existing Qt/PySide sources.

Changed

  • Update checks require a download for the current operating system.
  • Windows and Linux packages are built from the same release commit. Publication
    waits for both builds and the Linux compatibility checks to pass.

Known limitations

  • The AppImage targets x86-64 desktops with glibc 2.35 or newer and X11 or XWayland.
    ARM, 32-bit Linux and native Wayland-only environments are not supported by this build.
  • Restricted environments may need the documented extract-and-run option.
  • PST export is not included. Mailboxes can be exported as individual .eml files.

SHA256SUMS.txt contains checksums for all release assets. Only the EXE or AppImage for your operating system is needed to run the app.

Third-party software: Qt and PySide/Shiboken are used under LGPLv3. Third-party-notices.zip (Windows) and Third-party-notices-Linux.zip contain licence texts, exact dependency versions and rebuild instructions; these notices are also available inside the app under Help → Licences and third-party software. The matching, unmodified Qt and PySide/Shiboken source archives are the separate *-src-*.tar.xz downloads below. Bundled-files.txt lists native files. Linux has its own native-file inventory and additional runtime source archives. You may modify/rebuild these libraries and run the app with your replacements. GitHub's Source code downloads contain the MIT-licensed application source.
