Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest surrounding this idea, however we want to be open that we're unable to extend our log-out time past 60 minutes. Xero hold a lot of sensitive information including bank data and we're required to be as secure as online banking.
Any session information running on a web browser can potentially be stolen. If the session does not time out. You then have an infinitely long vulnerability window to session hijacking.

Hi community, I know it's been sometime since our last update and while we still don't have any plans for building a complete email system within Xero we wanted to share news of a new integration very much centered around needs expressed by some customers, here.

Exactly! I can't believe it's not already a feature. I need to advise all of our current debtors of our change of banking details and because Xero is SHITE in so many ways, I have to retrieve every one of their email addresses to send it to them via Outlook. Arrrrgggghhh!!!!!
