Proposal for release test procedure
by Robert Landes 26 Oct '05

26 Oct '05

What I could see so far since reading mails of this list is that there are a lot of bugs found by all of us and a lot of bug fixes are also shared through this list and last but not least the developers are really trying to fix (following their priorities) all those things quickly. I like this webmail client and I think it has a very good potential to start a small revolution within the open source webmail area. What I also see is that, there is still a long way to go to reach "stable" status, but forgive me if I am wrong: All of us want to see this product getting there as soon as possible due to lack of good (and more important nice looking) alternatives. As I am not a very experienced software developer, especially when it comes to DHTML, I am unfortunatly not able to contribute in that way. What I and for many other _users_ could do is testing, reporting bugs and verifying bugfixes in a proper way. I would suggest to create some fixed test procedures with corresponding check lists, which every release should be tested against. Some examples: 1) Sending / receiving mails with attachements (zip, rar, 7zip, ace, jpeg, gif, etc) 2) Front-end functionality (very important to have fixed test prodcure here i.e. testing all things, which can be done with front-end, this should also be done with all major browsers following a defined priority) 3) Back-end functionality (testing on different platforms and IMAP servers i.e. deleting, moving mails, status unread / read mails ...) I think, if we create a "things to be tested" catalogue, which every _user_ could follow and check things which passed or not passed and do good reporting to developers afterwards, will make live easier for all users (administrators) adn especially for the developers (saving valuable time). If you wish I could assist / support you (the developers) with creating and more important maintaining such a catalogue and even could do some controlling. Let me know your thaughts about this issue. Regards, Robert

Display When Entering Wrong Password....
by Kevin Landers 26 Oct '05

26 Oct '05

When entering the wrong password to login, I get the following error message: ------------------------ IMAP Error in (): Authentication failed (LOGIN): "a001 NO Login failed." ------------------------ The message is displayed above the logo. Is there any way to have this text not appear and simply logged to the appropriate log file? My users would prob not care to see this, and as long as I can see it in a log, I am kosher. Anyone have an idea of how to make this happen? Thanks, Kevin l.

Updated Modified Roundcube View
by Rob Smith 26 Oct '05

26 Oct '05

I just finished a few more tweaks on the roundcube skin. The folderlist alignment has been slightly altered, and I adjusted the settings and address book screens to better match the rest of the implementation. Just unzip this file into your roundcube root directory and it will overwrite the necessary files. These modifications have been tested in firefox and IE6 and work without error. The only issue that needs to be addressed before these are added to the CVS is the size of the taskbar icons and text. Whoever made those icons, if you can modify them (I realize the text is not part of the image currently, but you should probably change that) so that the text is smaller and under the icon (just "settings" instead of "personal settings" and "contacts" instead of "address book"). This way, there won't be display isses when reading messages on lower resolution screens (currently, menus overlap at 1024x768). This change of wording and word placement will lead to a far more efficient use of space. Rob

Re: Install question
by Joshua Layne 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

yep - i sent an email on this about 2 weeks ago - if you change the if/else to an if/elseif/else it will work fine my line numbers won't match up, as I am on an older version: ____ if (is_numeric($date)) $ts = $date; else if (strlen($date)) //modified from 'else' $ts = strtotime($date); else //added $ts = ''; //added ____ I realize that it is non-standard for a timestamp to be empty and that it is an error of the MTA, but I believe that roundcube should handle it gracefully nonetheless.

New Install question
by Mark cartwright 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

I just installed Round Cube (v 0.1-20051021) and it doesn't seem to work quite as I expected. I couldn't find any online forums or other FAQ info, so if this is the wrong place to ask such questions please do send me in the correct direction :) Anyway, I'll start with my config in case it matters: Apache version: 2.0.53 PHP Version: 5.0.4 MySQL Version: 4.1.14 IMAP Server (not on the web server): Macallan Mial 4.0.2.2 <http://4.0.2.2> Anyway.. Everything seems to work at first. I see a list of my IMAP folders and messages, as expected. However, when I double-click a subject instead of pulling up the body it just refreshes and does nothing else. I also get odd errors when I try to delete mails. Worth noting is that I have been running Squirl Mail for over a year and am curious if something that client did might have changed something in my IMAP folders. I have not yet created an entirely new user on the mail server to see if it helps, but I will tonight. Thanks for any tips.

Memory usage for sending messages
by Lonnie Olson 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

I have been experimenting for a while when I was bumping into my 16M memory_limit when just sending a 2M attachment. First I bumped up my memory_limit to 64M to avoid any Errors. I logged the current memory usage using memory_get_usage at several checkpoints. Here is a snippet from my logs that shows the escalating memory usage during the sending process. --------------- Oct 21 14:38:46 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/index.php[74]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 1729640 Oct 21 14:38:46 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/steps/mail/ sendmail.inc[2]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 2593576 Oct 21 14:38:47 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/steps/mail/ sendmail.inc[231]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 7514208 Oct 21 14:38:47 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/include/ rcube_imap.inc[622]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 10155336 Oct 21 14:38:47 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/lib/imap.inc [1886]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 12796272 Oct 21 14:38:47 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/lib/imap.inc [1898]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 18078104 Oct 21 14:38:48 /home/f/fungus/public_html/mail/program/lib/imap.inc [1907]: E_USER_NOTICE: Memory used: 18078136 --------------- After some searching through the code, and analyzing this same process with different sized attachments, I have come to a conclusion that memory usage must be improved. Currently the memory_limit must be set at 3M plus six times the maximum message size. 3M for the base application and enough room to hold the message 6 times. Eek! Example: for a 2M maximum message size the memory_limit must be 15M. 15M = 3M + 6*2M Almost 2 whole copies of this message remain in memory in the "program/steps/mail/sendmail.inc" file. Another copy is stored in memory for the argument as sent to $IMAP->save_message() in "program/ include/rcube_imap.inc". Another copy for the argument passed to iil_C_Append() in "program/lib/imap.inc". And 2 more copies are generated inside that same function. Solutions: 1. destroy the MAIL_MIME object properly in the "program/steps/mail/ sendmail.inc" after it is done with. 2. rework the API to reduce function calls that require the message body. 3. store the message only once globally, and have all functions read it instead of passing the message around. 3. consider fixing the Iloha library to manage memory more efficiently, or using another library. --lonnie

Large Install issues
by Christopher A. Watford 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

So I tried roundcube out on a large and in use install. It was competing with SquirrelMail at the same time. But it had its own server. The IlohaMail backend is too slow to consider for the site (700k+ emails) and made working with RC unbearable. I'm not sure I have the time to convert the backend to what SquirrelMail uses, but depending on how the various Courier-IMAP issues get worked out, I may make a second try at it. Figured I would pass along the experience. -- Christopher A. Watford christopher.watford(a)gmail.com

Solution for Courier-IMAP unread mail bug
by Jasper Slits 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

Hi, Here's a bug fix for Courier-IMAP 4.x and reading unread mail. [Background] New mails need to be flagged as Seen after it's opened. The IMAP command STORE $UID +Flags (\$flag) is issued for this. [Problem] New mail cannot opened when using Courier-IMAP. No page is rendered. [Solution] Tcpdump reveals the following: Client -> Server: flg STORE 139 +Flags (\Seen) Server -> Client: * 139 FETCH (FLAGS (\Seen)) Server -> Client: flg OK STORE completed. However, the 'flg' part is not stripped when the input is sent to ParseResult to valid the server's response code (OK, BAD etc). If we strip 'flg' before validating the response, we get the proper input. File: program/lib/imap.inc:1455 Old code: }while (!iil_StartsWith($line, "flg")); if (iil_ParseResult($line) == 0){ File: program/lib/imap.inc:1455 New code: }while (!iil_StartsWith($line, "flg")); $line = str_replace('flg','',$line); if (iil_ParseResult($line) == 0){ This patch shouldn't affect other IMAP-servers. Core problem is that errors in imap.inc need to be logged using error_log for example or a custom error handler. Otherwise a function returns -1 and the exception is handled. Best regards, Jasper

Hi there, is anyone already trying to get postgres fixes which don't break support for other DBs? I'm currently trying to fix every problem step by step but maybe someone has already fixed it? According to sf.net cvs web there are no interesting checkins since 0.1-20051007 at least not regarding postgres. Who would like to check my diffs (when finished) and commit them? -- Mit freundlichen Gruessen, Marco Wertejuk - mwcis.com Consulting & Internet Solutions

Inbox shows empty after viewing email or other folders?

I've installed the 102105 version, seems to work really well otherwise, but when I go to another folder or read an email, my Inbox shows as empty. Nothing except logging out and back in seems to fix it.

New Window for links inside of Mails?
by Stephan Dahlmann 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

Hi all, something regarding usability: Do you like it when clicking on a link inside a webpage (an eMail in our case) opens a new WebBroser Window? I really hate this in the meantime. If there's a link inside a mail RoundCube makes it clickable but it opens in a new Window. I would appreciate if this wasn't the case - let the user decide! Maybe it could even be made configurable. Thanks and HF stephan

Re: Problem with SMTP authentication
by Bain Kennedy 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

So I figured out the problem. I set up my email server using the qmailrocks.com default setup. So my SMTP server does require authentication, except for when it's coming from the local IP, since apache and qmail reside on the same box. So... I had to put my postmaster@<emailaddress>.com in the username, and left the password blank. That worked. Great product by the way! -----Original Message----- From: Jeremy Jongsma [mailto:jeremy@jongsma.org] Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2005 12:06 AM To: RoundCube Dev Cc: Bain Kennedy Subject: Re: [RoundCube Dev] Problem with SMTP authentication I have the same problem, and my server definitely requires authentication.

Missing date header, messages never purged
by Christoph Pittracher 25 Oct '05

25 Oct '05

Hello, I discovered two small problems in RoundCube (latest release, v0.1-20051021): First, it seems RoundCube doesn't write the date header to sent emails. Some mailserver add the header themself but generally that's a job the MUA should do. Second, if you delete a mail they get marked as deleted on the IMAP directory but they never get purged. It seems RoundCube uses the total message count for displaying how many messages are in a folder. Therewith the counter are incorrect too. I use a local cyrus IMAP server. Nevertheless I really like RoundCube, it's look and feel is very good for a webmail application! I'm not subscribed to the list, if you've additional questions please send them directly to me. Thanks. best regards, Christoph
