Zip compression added for tracer XML
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After upgrading from Pega 7 to Pega 8, attempting to save and download a trace session would run for a time before pausing and displaying the message "Operation failed. Network error". Investigation showed the tracer was generating a very large XML file which was consuming the heap and causing the issue. To resolve this, an update has been made that will reduce memory usage by using GZip compression on the file. The new behavior will be to always zip tracer XML by default.

Attached zip file has correct extension
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When using a custom function with the SendSimpleEmail activity, an attached .zip file was corrupted on receipt. The issue was not present with other mime types (ex. images, docs, pdf). Investigation traced this to the extension for the zip file being incorrectly set as xzip or multipart, and this has been resolved by adding a condition to set the extension correctly.

API added to handle digital signing from proxy layer
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
When an email account was configured with a valid email account and keystore for message signing, it was possible to send emails with valid digital signatures. When the same email was used in case type email instantiation, no digital signatures were included in it. This was due to keyStoreInstance properties being read from the email account top level page when they need to be retrieved from pyEmbedSenderProtocol page when using SMTP. This has been resolved by adding an API to handle the signing logic from the JavaEmailClientProxy class.
