What’s new in 110? 

The most recent upgrade comes bundled with various enhancements in functionality, performance upgrades, and a few noteworthy depreciations.

Functionality improvements

Roundcube updates

The Roundcube webmail client has been updated to 1.6, which brings improved performance and a new email purging feature. You can now create a task to automatically clear your email trash whenever you log out of your account. This can be set to delete items older than 30, 60, or 90 days. 

Performance upgrades

Upgraded cPanel PHP to 8.1

cPanel gets a performance boost across the board, with the internal PHP having been upgraded from PHP 7.4 to PHP 8.1. This new version is fully supported and provides vastly superior performance and enhanced security.

Administrator changes

Server Administrators now have access to the following new changes and enhancements:

• PowerDNS update: PowerDNS, the popular open-source DNS server software included with cPanel, has been upgraded to version 4.7.2. 
• API token access to IPv6 addresses: Support has now been added for IPv6 in WHM’s Manage API Tokens interface. This means you can now grant device access to API tokens for both IPv4 & IPv6 addresses.
• Behind-the-scenes changes: Work is underway at cPanel to advance on a proposed multi-user / team capability functionality. This promises to allow for the creation of new users to access cPanel accounts. Note: This feature is disabled at present, as it’s in the early experimental stages.
