A month ago, I launched Open Archiver here at r/linuxadmin, and it has received significant support from the community. Now we have reached more than 600 stars on GitHub and have 6 community controbutors. Thank you all for your support!

Today I'd like to announce version 0.3 of Open Archiver, which has added the following key features based on your feedback:

• Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): This is the most requested feature and we made it a reality. You can now create multiple users with specific roles. We also implemented an AWS IAM-style policy system so you can get granular with permissions for different resources.
• User API Key Support: For everyone wanting to automate or integrate, users can now generate and manage their own API keys. This allows you to access resources programmatically.
• Multi-language Support & System Settings: The interface (and even the API!) now supports multiple languages (English, German, French, Spanish, Japanese, Italian, and of course, Estonian, since we're based here in 🇪🇪!).

For folks who don't know what Open Archiver is, it is an open-source tool that helps individuals and organizations to archive their whole email inboxes with the ability to index and search these emails. It has the ability to archive emails from cloud-based email inboxes, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and all IMAP-enabled email inboxes. You can connect it to your email provider, and it copies every single incoming and outgoing email into a secure archive that you control (Your local storage or S3-compatible storage).

Here are some of the main features:

• Comprehensive archiving: It doesn't just import emails; it indexes the full content of both the messages and common attachments.
• Organization-Wide backup: It handles multi-user environments, so you can connect it to your Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 tenant and back up every user's mailbox.
• Powerful full-text search: There's a clean web UI with a high-performance search engine, letting you dig through the entire archive (messages and attachments included) quickly.
• You control the storage: You have full control over where your data is stored. The storage backend is pluggable, supporting your local filesystem or S3-compatible object storage right out of the box.
