I'm attempting to write a plugin to allow pubcookie sessions to authenticate directly into roundcube without requiring any additional login from the user. First of all, has anyone done this already? It's not one of the standard plugins...
Assuming that pubcookie hasn't already been done, I've been looking at the roundcube architecture for how to integrate it. Unfortunately, if you use pubcookie, you get a userID and a kerberos credential (instead of a userID/password combo), so it looks like none of the standard roundcube hooks will do the right thing. I already have code that will build a pre-authenticated connection to my IMAP server, but I don't really see how to hand this back to roundcube while bypassing the normal login/imap connection building that is going on.
Can anyone provide some ideas on the best way to do this? I'd be happy to contribute the eventual plugin back to the pool.
Thanks,
Tod Pike
