-If GraphicsMagick is used, SME now limits its execution time for cases where it can take a very long time to generate a thumbnail. If you have Show versioned files in clients set to User choice, and the Team Admin Dashboard option Show versioned files in clients is set to Yes, this option was ignored for the Team Admin. The option is respected correctly for Team Users. This has been resolved. Resolved system error when filename contains a line-break symbol. When running the DB Upgrade script, it would output Undefined offset SERVER_NAME to the command line. This has been resolved. If users performed an upload using 'direct upload', this would contribute towards their package bandwidth usage. This has been resolved. Business group email notifications could sometimes render incorrectly in some legacy email platforms. This has been resolved. Resolved issue with the internal cache, which would lead to a providers title being displayed incorrectly for a short period of time after it had been updated.
