Trident for Zoho Workplace
Upload email attachments to WorkDrive
Until now, you could drag and drop email attachments one at a time to the WorkDrive widget without downloading them to the system.
With the new “Add to WorkDrive” option, you can now select and upload multiple email attachments at once. This makes it even easier to move files from your inbox to WorkDrive without the extra step of saving them to your device. (Available on Mac and Windows)
Block and reject future emails
When you receive emails from an unknown sender with malicious content, you can choose to block and reject emails from that sender. This will move the current email to the Spam folder and bounce all future emails from the sender back to them. (Available on Mac and Windows)
Report phishing emails
If you receive an email that appears suspicious, you can now report it as a phishing attempt directly from the Mail Detail view. Reported emails are moved to the Spam folder, and similar emails are automatically filtered into Spam in the future. Reporting such emails helps improve protection against similar threats. (Available on Windows only)
Know when emails track you
Tracking or spy pixels can pick up on your private data, such as when and where you read the email, IP address, and more, to report it back to the sender. Trident can now automatically detect emails containing spy pixels and display a warning. (Available on Mac and Windows)
Annotate images while composing emails
You can now annotate images directly from the Mail Composer to highlight important details before sending them. This helps provide clearer visual context when sharing images in your email. (Available on Windows only)
Stay alert during email exchanges
A warning message is now displayed in the Mail Detail view to protect users against malicious content and phishing attempts in the following types of emails:
Emails identified as potentially harmful, such as unauthenticated senders or emails containing risky attachments.
Emails that may contain potentially unsafe elements, such as password-protected attachments or suspected spam patterns.
Emails that require user awareness, such as messages from first-time senders, external senders, or non-contact email addresses.
Create filters from emails
You can now create filters directly from an email to organize similar emails in the future automatically. The filter conditions are automatically populated based on the email’s details, making it easier to set up filters and manage incoming emails. (Available on Mac and Windows)
Zoho Writer
Zoho Writer switches to a new UI
Zoho Writer now offers a familiar, classic word processor user interface to provide a consistent and unified user experience across all Zoho Office Suite products.
