Roundcube Framework and BC breaks list
by A.L.E.C 13 Apr '12

13 Apr '12

I've started working on the framework. The list of backward compatibity breaks will be long. Here's the first part. Renamed functions: rcube_imap::decode_address_list() > rcube_mime::decode_address_list() rcube_imap::decode_mime_string() > rcube_mime::decode_mime_string() rcube_imap::decode_header() > rcube_mime::decode_header() rcube_imap::mime_decode() > rcube_mime::decode() rcube_imap::explode_header_string() > rcube_mime::explode_header_string() rcube_imap::unfold_flowed() > rcube_mime::unfold_flowed() rcube_imap::format_flowed() > rcube_mime::format_flowed() Removed functions: rcube_imap::select_mailbox() rcube_imap::in_searchset() rcube_imap::id2uid() -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

dovecot
by S c o t t K r a m e r 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Hi, Does anyone have or recommend a nice walk-through/quick-start installing, configuring dovecot, and the ideal linux variation to run it on? I of course can google it, but there are tons of options, please if someone can suggest the best, that would be awesome! We use hMailserver right now, it's nice, but it's difficult to restore certain things from backup (like a user folder deleted by accident), and it does not support threading. Thanks! _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

Roundcube Framework
by A.L.E.C 07 Feb '12

07 Feb '12

Besides the new skin in 0.8 I'd like to start working on Roundcube Framework. It means Roundcube will provide a set of classes that can be used by other projects. Now, rcube_imap_generic class is known as one of the best IMAP handling classes, but there are people that would like to use something more abstract i.e. rcube_imap class. This is not simple now because of its dependencies. So, here are some steps I want to make: - create abstract rcube_storage class and build rcube_imap as rcube_storage implementation (driver) - this is to allow creation of other drivers, e.g. SQL-based, POP3, - exclude mime related functions from rcube_imap into new rcube_mime class, - split main.inc and rcube_shared.inc functions into a few classes: rcube_converter, rcube_ui, rcube_utils and maybe some into existing classes, - create rcube_framework class, that can be a parent for rcmail class, - framework-related changes to existing classes, e.g. - get rid of $rcmail object usage in classes, - can we exclude rcube_user class? - make output/html/template classes optional, - unify codestyle according to our CS ruleset -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak LAN Management System Developer [http://lms.org.pl] Roundcube Webmail Developer [http://roundcube.net] --------------------------------------------------- PGP: 19359DC1 @@ GG: 2275252 @@ WWW: http://alec.pl _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

three column layout plugin
by Phil Weir 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Hi, There has been a patch on the forum for a while to give Roundcube a three column layout. Using the render page hook this can also be done with a plugin. The advantage of this is that it can then be an option, users can pick if they want their preview pane below or on the right of the message list. This works fine with the default skin but there is one problem doing it with the larry skin. The splitter between the message list and the preview pane is defined in ui.js rather than inline like with default. Attached patch makes it so that plugins can access the splitter in the larry skin and also adds a hook so that plugins can change the properties of the splitter before it is initialised. I'm not sure if it's the best was to change ui.js, if anyone has any better ideas please let me know. Is changing ui.js like my patch does or some similar way something the devs would consider? If not then I don't think there is any point in a plugin like this, people can just stick to using a patch or a whole different skin. Why use a patch/plugin rather than a whole different skin? It's only a couple of changes that are needed to move the preview pane. It seems a little over the top to make a whole new skin just to move one div. Using a plugin allows users to have an option about the layout of the screen like in Outlook or Thunderbird.

LDAP addressbook : uid or mail as RDN?
by lists＠nrd.fr 31 Jan '12

31 Jan '12

Hi RC-Dev list, I'm setting up an LDAP shared address book and while googling for information I found this thread in your archives (I wasn't a list member then): - http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/dev/2011-10/0000015.html (oct 2011) - http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/dev/2011-11/0000000.html (nov 2011) Please let me add a few comments to this thread. I Hope this is the right place to post and that my English is good enough. Forgive me otherwise. 1. UID or Email as RDN? ----------------------- When working with small companies and/or workgroups it's quite frequent to see several people sharing a single email address, typically something like "little_company(a)some_big_isp.tld". This is my everyday experience with small companies and small local administrations too (I live in a rural area). Using mail as the RDN makes it impossible to add more than one contact in such situations, even if you want them because, in spite of a common work mail address, different people still have different mobile numbers, different home mail addresses, etc. So, IMO it would probably be better to use a dynamically generated UID as RDN. 2. RC writing data to the address book -------------------------------------- How would RC know how to build new UID's compatible with a specific setup? IMO the main advantage with LDAP is having mail clients being able to read a shared address book. Getting RC writing to the directory doesn't look that important to me: suppose you get the feature to work with RC, as an admin you are left with the same problem for each other client you may want/need to support at your company. Until there is some standard address book schema that every client should support, but I don't know of any right now. So, IMO a much simpler approach is to stick with a dedicated application to setup and manage the address book, and look for good read capabilities of mail clients. I mean that more flexibility in the way RC can do the mapping between LDAP attributes and contact fields is IMO the most important feature to focus on. Personally I use "Contagged" to manage contacts of the LDAP address book: - http://www.cosmocode.de/en/opensource/contagged - http://www.splitbrain.org/blog/2007-06/27-contagged_the_ldap_address_book It is a free application from the same developer who wrote DokuWiki: - http://www.dokuwiki.org This application does a good job for small companies, and it would be great if there was a simple way to make RC read more fields from the address book, display tags (Contagged provides tags) as RC "groups", etc. Please let me know if there is a better or more standard way to get these things done: I'm rather new to this LDAP stuff. Thanks a lot to all RC developers, you do have a great application :-) Beñat _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

jqueryui plugin: css
by Roland Liebl 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hello Devs, I use queryui plugin in various others plugins. It is a little bit misleading that current date and selected date of datepicker have the same background color. It would be great, if this could be changed and merged into 0.7 branch. Thank you! Regards, R. _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

Translations via launchpad
by Jure Kranjc 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

We tried to add some translations of password plugin to launchpad but we couldn't find previously translated items of multiple plugins. So we uploaded a costum .po file for password plugin translation (Slovenian), but was taken as labels translation. Well, it would be nice, if all current translations were uploaded. I'll try to upload some more .po's in next days. I'm pasting new translations below. $messages['passwordshort'] = 'Geslo mora biti dolgo vsaj $length znakov in vsebovati vsaj eno številko ter eno ločilo.'; $messages['passwordweak'] = 'Geslo mora vsebovati vsaj eno številko in eno ločilo.'; $messages['passwordforbidden'] = 'Geslo vsebuje nedovoljene znake.'; _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/aba52c80

Trouble with memcached, debian, etc. -- sort of fixed in rcube_session.php?
by Rob Sheldon 07 Jan '12

07 Jan '12

Hi, Finally decided to get memcached up and running with Roundcube -- awesome work there. I ran into a problem getting it to go at first though. Turned on all the logging in memcache and found this relevant bit: <28 get d5f4fbf9a78ea7c63f2919f1ba544fa0 > FOUND KEY d5f4fbf9a78ea7c63f2919f1ba544fa0 >28 sending key d5f4fbf9a78ea7c63f2919f1ba544fa0 >28 END 28: going from conn_parse_cmd to conn_mwrite 28: going from conn_mwrite to conn_new_cmd 28: going from conn_new_cmd to conn_waiting 28: going from conn_waiting to conn_read 28: going from conn_read to conn_parse_cmd <28 delete d5f4fbf9a78ea7c63f2919f1ba544fa0 1 >28 CLIENT_ERROR bad command line format. Usage: delete <key> > [noreply] ...which eventually led me to http://www.php.net/manual/en/memcache.delete.php where this problem is mentioned in comments. The PHP docs there specifically say not to include the timeout parameter when calling memcache->delete(), but unfortunately, due to a bug in the current php5-memcached package in Debian, not including the parameter causes php to automatically append a "1" to the end of the delete command, which breaks memcached. In rcube_session.php, I mucked about with the first line of mc_destroy(), changing it to: $ret = $this->memcache->delete($key, 0); ...which makes everything happy, despite being incorrect. I searched the dev- and users- mailing list archives and didn't find any other references to this particular problem, so I'm just mentioning it here in case anybody else gets bitten by it.
