Java port if roundcube
by Tobias Zahn 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

hello everyone! I am interested in a Java port of RoundCube. Since I am a Java programmer, I am looking for people how are interested in a Java port and, of course, other Java programmers who want to help. If someone knows a java-based webmail with usable code, let me know please. That might be labour saving :-) The goal is to create a mail system that can easily be integrated in Java homepages (CMS), using the advantages of java. regards, Tobias

Hello everyone !
by Matthieu BONETTI 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Hello, I may do some change with the address book for my own usage. Is it done or should I contact the developer to ask him what's his plans on it. Btw, I couldn't get the CVS version from Sourceforge. Is there a way I can have a read-only access ? Have all a nice day ! -- Matthieu Bonetti +33 684 957 884

adding php to templates
by mainefoo 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

want to add php code in your templates? here's how open the folder roundcube/skins/default/includes open each html file in your favorite text editor and add <?PHP ?> as the very first line. save them as php files. for example header.html is saved as header.php next open the folder roundcube/skins/default/templates open each html file in your favorite text editor and add <?PHP ?> as the very first line. find all instances of <roundcube:include file= and change html to php for example: <roundcube:include file="/includes/links.html" /> becomes <roundcube:include file="/includes/links.php" /> in the file addressbook.html around line 32 find the line that reads: <roundcube:object name="addressframe" id="contact-frame" width="100%" height="100%" frameborder="0" src="/watermark.html" /> change watermark.html to read watermark.php save them as php files. for example addcontact.html is saved as addcontact.php open the file roundcube/skins/default/watermark.html add <?PHP ?> as the very first line. save watermark.html as watermark.php next open the file roundcube/program/include/main.inc around line 769 find the line that reads: return is_file("$skin_path/templates/$name.html"); change $name.html to $name.php around line 782 find the line that reads: $path = "$skin_path/templates/$name.html"; change $name.html to $name.php save and you're done!! open and run roundcube. everything looks the same and acts the same but now you have the ability to use php in your templates.

Taskbar png
by Jacob Brunson 02 Feb '06

02 Feb '06

In my testing, someone claimed that there wasn't enough contrast between some of the form elements and the background color. The user complained about "white on white", even though it is white on light gray. Anyway, so I started investigating what it would take to change the background color. Answer: not much, just a simple change of the css. However, with this change the nice taskbar in the upper right doesn't look so nice because it doesn't fade from white to the background color. So I created a png image (attached) that uses transparency instead of the gif that is currently there. Replacing the gif with the png has no downsides that I can see. It does add these benefits: * 25% smaller size * Ability to change the background without bad effects for browsers that support png transparency. To use the png you will need to drop the png in the skins/default/images/ directory and change the #taskbar definition in skins/default/common.css (around line 121) to use taskbar.png instead of the .gif version.

RoundCube Themes/Skins
by jason＠tenny.org 02 Feb '06

02 Feb '06

It seemed like the dev list was more appropriate for this then the user list, so here goes. Having done theme work in the past on a verity of applications I decided to give RoundCube a go. I very much enjoy using RoundCube webmail but was looking for a more playful look. I decided to take the popular Thunderbird theme "iCandy Jr." and use it to skin RoundCube. So far I have gotten a good response and wanted to share it with you. <a href="http://tenny.org/blog/installing-the-icandy-jr-theme-to-roundcube">Installing the icandy jr theme to RoundCube</a> With that said, I have looked at the product roadmap and seen that one item listed is "Complete customization with skins". How much work (if any) has been done in this area yet and how can I get involved in helping? -Jason tenny.org

Bug Report: Browser Window Title Not Updated Correctly
by Ross Poulton 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

Hi there, In the latest CVS, the browser title tag is changed to reflect the number of messages in the current window, eg 'INBOX (2)'. This is a great feature, except for one minor issue. If I mark a message as read (by clicking the blue *) then delete it, the folder list new-message count is reduced, but the title bar doesn't change until I click the 'E-Mail' icon in the top toolbar. Is it possible to make the title be updated at the same time as the folder list? Regards, ROss -- Ross Poulton www.rossp.org ross(a)rossp.org

Feature request: virtual folder
by Manu 01 Feb '06

01 Feb '06

Hi, I think I saw such thing in Zimbra and that Google have something similar; some sort of search-criteria based folders. That is to say, messages that matches a set of criteria are viewable under a special folder. This feature could be very interesting when you're subscribed to mailing lists. Do you think it could be easily done using informations from the cache ? I do not have significant PHP experience so I don't think I'm gonna try to add this feature. Thanks - Manu PS: in the hope you'd understand my poor english.
