+The development team is pleased to announce the second beta release for the next major version 1.7 of Roundcube webmail.
+
+With this milestone we introduce some more fixes, and bring full support for the early version of PHP 8.5.
+
+It does not include breaking changes (beyond those of 1.7-beta).
+
+Some noteworthy changes are:
+
+- Support PHP v8.5(-pre) without deprecation warnings.
+- Support IPv6 in database DSN (#9937)
+- Use `htmleditor` setting also for identity signature (#9954)
+- Fix regression in handling of non-unicode characters in a plain text message (#9953)
+- Fix parsing of inline styles that aren't well-formatted (#9948)
+- Support early MIME types for S/MIME encrypted messages (#9973)
+- Only apply fix_path for href attrib in <link>s (#9943)
+- Show homograph-warning-icon before email address, unify warning wording (#9945)
+- Show full details with warning icon in case of phishing suspicion (#9945)
+- Prepend group-names to display-name (#9945) Thanks to coco_melon for the reporting!
+- Wash the `name` attribute also on more elements (#9949) – Thanks to pwn.ai by Octagon Networks for the reporting!
+- Sanitize filename on download (#9960)
+- Drop Internet Explorer from supported browsers (#9963)
+- Enforce leading backslash for non-namespaced non-Roundcube uses (#9935)
+- Use asset_url() instead of get_skin_file() for deleteicon on contact edit form (#9933)
+- Several changes to the test tooling.
+
+For full details please see the [release notes](https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.7-beta2).
+
+This is a beta release and we recommend to test it on a separate environment.
+Migrate existing configs with either the installto.sh or the update.sh scripts.
+
+And don't forget to backup your data before installing it!
