plugins
by Rob Bos 08 Mar '06

08 Mar '06

I've been looking for documentation on how to integrate WebCalendar with Roundcube; is there any? I'd like to write a plugin, I guess, and there's mention of plugin support scattered about but nothing obvious in some cursory source code grepping and google searches.

BUG: session expiration
by Adrian Vasile 08 Mar '06

08 Mar '06

Hi, I've noticed that while reading an email if i select to go to another folder my session expires. Anybody else seen that? PS: would gladly help out with any programming chores :) PS2: Thomas, you suggested that for some insight on programming RC we should contact somebody. Why not put together a page describing the API and coding conduit. PS3: Great job/application

Word wrapping when composing a mail
by Matt Smith 07 Mar '06

07 Mar '06

I've noticed that when you compose and send a mail in Roundcube that if you just type your message and do not press enter every 76 characters or so that roundcube just sends the email with one huge long line of text. This makes people who's mail readers (or things like mailing list web archives) complain and they always tell you off and say to set your mail reader to make a newline every 76 characters or so or else they have to scroll across one huge long line of text. When you view the message in roundcube (the sent folder) it looks fine, the display of the message does some wrapping, but if you view the source then you can see the huge long line. Is it possible to get an option added to set a wordwrap length during composing? This mail has been deliberatly typed in this way to show you what I mean. It should look perfectly fine in the message viewer but the source of the message should have the paragraphs only taking up one single huge long line. Regards, Matt. PS: I've got the 76 characters figure from taking a quick look at the options in MS Outlook where it's set to wrap at 76 chars.

Bug: New mail not showing up in INBOX
by topher dailing 07 Mar '06

07 Mar '06

While using Safari... If Im logged in and new mail arrives, the Title of the pages informs me how many messages are new and unread in my INBOX, but when I click on the INBOX to update the contents, the new mail does not show up. I must click on a folder other than INBOX and then click on the INBOX again for the new mail to show up. Chris topher(a)rephot.org

Problems with attachments over 2MB
by Support Technique / Technical Support 07 Mar '06

07 Mar '06

Hello, I've been having trouble attaching any file over 2048KB to an outgoing message. I get no error message either on the RC interface, nor the RC error log or apache logs. When I browse, then hit upload for the attachment, It goes through the upload process, but no file appears in the list of attachments. I've verified the standard problems: php.ini max_execution_time = 300 max_input_time = 300 memory_limit = 72M post_max_size = 64M upload_max_filesize = 60M Apache http.conf: There are no LimitRequestBody or any other LimitRequest fields in the configuration. Am I missing some configuration element somewhere? Thanks for your help

Tabbed Interface?
by Alex King 06 Mar '06

06 Mar '06

Apologies in advance if I should have contacted a dev owner directly instead of the list. If this was sent to the wrong place, please let me know the proper place and I'll pursue this there. -- Hello List-- I'd like to have tabbed e-mail, and I'd like a better webmail client. I think RoundCube could be the solution to both: http://www.alexking.org/blog/2006/03/02/tabbed-e-mail/ With the excellent job the dev team has done thus far, I'm sure you've gotten a ton of pet feature requests. However, I'm willing to write the code for mine - *if* a patch would be accepted into core. Basically, I'd like to introduce a "tabbed interface" option (or default, if you prefer, but I think an option is a good intermediary step). The existing RoundCube interface, which replaces the main screen with a screen dedicated to the selected function (reading, writing, choosing from a list), is well suited to accept tabs. I've worked on a number of OS projects and would be capable of creating both the back-end code (using whatever coding conventions you prefer) and the front-end code (images, XHTML, CSS) to add this as an option. I've also got some experience building advanced, cross- platform AJAX applications (FeedLounge). If this is a feature you'd be interested in having in the product? Perhaps there is someone I should talk to about the best way to do the implementation (the 5 minute architecture tour)?

Timestamp problems
by Richard Green 06 Mar '06

06 Mar '06

Hi Ryo, First, a little background; I originally set up my e-mail solution a few months ago by creating myself a Maildir on my Debian box. Using Thunderbird, where my e-mails were stored locally on my PC, I copied across all my e-mails to the server by dragging and dropping the folders. The trouble I have with this is that the date modified timestamp of each e-mail was dependent on the time that the Thunderbird application copied them over to the server. Unfortunately for me, it didn't copy them across in a 'logical' order and consequently the default sorting by 'timestamp' meant that the order was all scrambled (any new e-mails would correctly arrive at the top of the e-mail list, however). To date, I haven't found a nice way of resetting the modified date of those e-mail files based on the 'Date:' field contained within the e-mail file. I suspect doing that may be a better solution to my problem, but instead I have made an amendment to the imap.inc file, which I suspect may in fact be a better solution for anyone facing the same problem. I have added the following lines to the 'iil_SortHeaders' function, after line 1370 (inside the first if-statement); if ($field=="timestamp") { foreach ($a as $value) { $timestamp = strtotime($value->date); if ($timestamp != false) { $value->timestamp = $timestamp; } } } I am interested to know whether you think this is a viable solution and whether the above change could be integrated into your module. The only issue I can see with this is that the 'Date:' field inside the e-mail is dependent on the sending party's server and that could theoretically be set to anything. Also, for one particular e-mail I had, the timestamp was not in a format that the strtotime function could understand (it looked like this: 'Fri, 12 Mar 2004 13:35:05 +0000 ()' and it doesn't like the empty brackets), hence the check for $timestamp != false, which if it fails will cause it to revert to the date modified timestamp of the file. Thanks for your attention! Kind regards, Richard

Patches for 0.1-beta
by Thomas Bruederli 05 Mar '06

05 Mar '06

The recently published beta release came up with two ugly bugs. One prevented from saving the language selection in the user preferences and the other completely omitted mail headers when having no smtp server configured. User Preference Language defaults to English: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1435989&group_id=1… Sending mails as Nobody/Attachments are not sent: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1434778&group_id=1… Sorry for that!

Cannot open messages with large attachments
by Doug Robbins 05 Mar '06

05 Mar '06

When I try to open a message with a large attachment (or a collection of attachments that add up to several megabytes), Roundcube spins for a while then times out and displays only a blank white page. By 'large' I mean in the area of 8mb or more. It seems that it is trying to read the attachments, and either Apache is timing out or I'm hitting a PHP limit (I haven't investigated that closely). Can Roundcule be configured to NOT (attempt) to read large attachments when opening a mail? (On the same server, Squirrelmail manages to pop the same messages open without problem.) By way of background, I'm running the beta release of Roundcube on the same machine as the imap server (wu-imap). Caching is disabled in the Roundcule config. Any help appreciated.

Re: shift-select and control-select patch
by Jamie Halmick 03 Mar '06

03 Mar '06

The standard behavior is for command-click to perform non-contiguous multiple select. shift-click performs contiguous multiple select command-shift-click appears to perform just like shift-click At least that's how it works in the Finder, which I think should be the Mac reference for this type of behaviour. I think that substituting command for control with the current roundcube behaviour would be fine though as it's really just "more" functionality. : jamie -------- "Much human ingenuity has gone into finding the ultimate Before.

RoundCube Webmail 0.1 Beta released
by Thomas Bruederli 03 Mar '06

03 Mar '06

After a long period of development, we're proud to announce the first official Beta release of our webmail client. Many bugfixes and some new features have found their way into this version. For a detailed list of improvements, please refer to the Changelog [1]. Please forgive us, if the feature you're requested is not available yet or the bug you're reported has not been fixed in this release. The project is still under heavy development but nobody is working on it full-time. Because of that, things will probably take more time than you expect but until you don't get an answer on your requests, they are bot rejected or ignored. I'd like to thank all the developers, translators and posters who keep this project up and I'm looking forward to announce more good news in the future. Have fun!

Populating Username Field with Domain Name
by Mark Pallo 03 Mar '06

03 Mar '06

I posted this a while back on the users list and don't recall whether it was possible or not. I simply want the text box portion of the username field to be pre-populated with my domain name (@domainxyz.com) so my users just have to type in their username. Is this possible?

Re: shift-select and control-select patch
by Jamie Halmick 02 Mar '06

02 Mar '06

This new select behavior is nice for contiguous selection but doesn't really work on Macintosh. When you control-click you get the context menu (right click for Mac). Can you add the behavior so that the Command key will do the same on the Mac as Control? : jamie -------- "I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by." - Douglas Adams

Safe Mode
by Mickaël Wolff 01 Mar '06

01 Mar '06

Hello, My first post, and from RCW ;) I have a first comment on how it manages some problems. Like you guess, I talk about the safe mode's PHP and mail function. When I try to send an e-mail, the Return-Path header is set to the user-apache@hostname email, instead of sender. It is useless, and can waste a lot of time. I propose to remove the ability to send an e-mail with the mail function when safe mode is enable. I was very surprised when I installed this web application. Great work for a first write !

Translation variable introducing a bug (ex: French)
by Pierre HAEGELI 01 Mar '06

01 Mar '06

I noticed a bug which seems to be in relation with a translation string in the "labels.inc" file. When the following variable is activated: $labels['compact'] = 'Compresser'; (example for the french translation), then the item "empty" to empty the trash is no more displayed. So if you would like to use this functionality, just comment this line in "labels.inc": //$labels['compact'] = 'Compresser'; Someone knows about this issue ? Any chance to get it solved ? Thanx a lot. Regards. PH.
