+---
+
+The development team is pleased to announce the beta release for the next major version 1.7 of Roundcube webmail.
+
+With this milestone we introduce a few breaking changes, some new features, and bring full support for PHP 8.4.
+
+Some noteworthy changes are:
+
+ * Make `public_html/` mandatory as entry-point for HTTP daemons, protecting all installations better.
+ * Improve support for OAuth2 (e.g. supporting OpenID Connect discovery URLs).
+ * A Mouse-over menu on the messages list with quick action icons.
+ * Advanced mail search syntax with more possibilities – you can now use e.g. `is:unread` to only match unread messages. The [test file](https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/blob/master/tests/Actions/Mail/SearchTest.php#L139) has a list of implemented keywords.
+ * Message parts of content-type `text/markdown` are now rendered to HTML (if they are designated for showing).
+ * Add a 'php' logging driver, which passes all log statements to PHP's `error_log` handler, allowing to unify all log output.
+ * Requires PHP v8.1 or newer.
+
+## Breaking Changes
+
+ * Dropped support for PHP < 8.1.
+ * Removed support for MS SQL Server and Oracle.
+ * Make public_html/ entry-point mandatory, all static resources are served via static.php.
+ * Removed `apc` cache driver (replaced by `apcu` cache driver).
+ * Change `smtp_log` option default value to `false`.
+
+For full details please see the [release notes](https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.7-beta).
+
+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!
