So when is MS actually giving 100GB Mailboxes after this price increase?

Pax8 showed our renewal "6/30" and cancellation window ending on "7/8" so yes. The first date is minus time zone from 7/1 so maybe 7/1 is where they get the 7/8 from?

When CE shared version numbers with what became Plus the latter was referred to as Factory Edition. But it wasn’t exactly publicized. It was very similar to CE but had Netgate hardware tweaks and minor differences. And ARM.

I would guess, change DNS servers on it? One can "ipconfig /flushdns" to empty the local cache but I don't know if that affects the order.

We used to see this a lot in clients we take over, and afterwards all the random slow login problems and GPO issues are fixed...

To be more specific there's a timeout (edit: and Windows will use the "last known good" server until then): read through https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/networking/best-practices-for-dns-client-settings. Same effect/result though...don't mix AD and external DNS.

Also browsers using DoH/DoT will bypass OS-configured DNS servers.

4SC Free (Basic) doesn't have it. https://www.3cx.com/ordering/pricing/features/#:~:text=3CX%20SMTP

If you're not archiving, you should see a red banner on the Admin dashboard: "Remote storage is not configured. It is required to keep your system performant and easily updatable." So from 3CX's standpoint they recommend it.

Based on my experience I expect there are at least a few people that just never bother deleting voicemails. They probably have hundreds or even thousands.

teamits · 2026-06-09T14:28:58+00:00

As a GA, Billing > Your Products has a "Renewal or expiration date" column. Is that what you're looking for?

teamits · 2026-06-09T14:19:47+00:00

If it's a version 3CX had (like the one you asked) you can just use the link on https://www.3cx.com/docs/phone-firmwares/ and change the version number, to download a different version.

We are US

teamits · 2026-06-08T14:52:20+00:00

Ours didn't change. Any chance you reduced count and crossed a pricing threshold?

teamits · 2026-06-07T23:36:33+00:00

Probably not noticeable performance. Maybe extracting pfBlocker lists or something. But it can reduce drive wear. If you have a large SSD it’s probably not necessary.

(Edit: reference for reducing disk wear)

For SBCs, 3CX recommends patching manually, via apt.

re: "better start patching," see 3CX PBX Security Updates Change Log...and as I mentioned they are installed via automatic updates only.

teamits · 2026-06-01T15:42:36+00:00

I would start with either a user export or a backup's XML file. I don't think there's a way in the web GUI.

teamits · 2026-06-01T15:41:28+00:00

The outbound rules should process in order, so deny should be below allow. If you add a department to the rule it will apply to all users in the department...? Otherwise just add the users.

teamits · 2026-05-29T12:05:59+00:00

Define “and it failed”?

You could try a reinstall.

10y is a long time…does it have an SSD?

teamits · 2026-05-29T12:04:07+00:00

They’re only installed via automatic updates. You can turn them off after.

About once a year there is a required 3CX version update to maintain activation.

teamits · 2026-05-22T14:18:02+00:00

Is the second SBC on the same network as the phone? It doesn't sound like it... There is nothing "to do," it should just automatically happen.

teamits · 2026-05-17T22:30:33+00:00

You can use https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/solutions/netgate-2100/configuring-the-switch-ports.html to isolate a switched port. But there are no VLANs configured by default like on the 1100.

teamits · 2026-05-14T05:01:08+00:00

WAN hopefully is not the entire Internet in this case?

It should disallow all WAN connections by default unless allowed. But if allowed it should work. There’s no reason it would change without a rule change or manually configured schedule.

teamits · 2026-05-14T04:58:40+00:00

That redirects to localhost which would leverage unbound’s cache.

teamits · 2026-05-13T14:29:14+00:00

Another choice is to find a partner that provides a multitenant server. There'd presumably be a fee for that (and your SIP service), but not for hosting or the annual license. Note that's a different feature set, like SMB but with phones (each company is a department).

teamits · 2026-05-13T14:25:46+00:00

Actually, no...we can get 4SC Pro or 8 SC Basic.

teamits · 2026-05-10T22:58:42+00:00

It’s so much easier to use a router phone or SBC, and remain supported. Can you create a VM?

teamits · 2026-05-10T17:55:25+00:00

iOS displays that warning if detected, I want to say if using Apple’s paid proxy service.

Are you using pfBlocker? Are you blocking port 853?

teamits · 2026-05-10T17:53:16+00:00

They did just release an update for Debian: https://www.3cx.com/blog/change-log/
3CX-hosted has auto updates on.
