Hello,
Hi Pierre,
Thanks for your input. Most things you mentioned are in planning but not implemented yet.
As far as I dive into the RC code, i have been trying to add some features to my RC copy, and I'd like to give some remarks about this great webmail project.
- Autocompletion : When I worked on LDAP autocompletion support (around
1st of december), I figured out that all contacts were added to a big javascript array. Why not making XMLHttpRequests to a page that returns the autocompletion, when 4 ou more / less caracters are given ? I think it could improve performances in case of users handling thousands of contacts into their addressbook. I did'nt look the code toroughly, and don't know if it is really possible.
Together with the re-write of the address book which will introduce the possibility to add several different sources (including LDAP servers) the autocompletion will be changed to HTTP-Requests as well.
- Message threads : For my personal javascript culture, I began to code
something like threaded mails view (ticket #1424907). It's just a begin for the moment, see here if you're curious enough : http://pedrov.kwain.net/~pedrov/rcube/mail_toggle/toggle.html Anyway, I'm not sure that it's RC compliant (I could not use a table to show messages), and I'm still a beginner in Javascript language. Does anybody here has begun to code anything about this ticket ? (I'd like to know if i'm wrong)
Should be possible with tables as well. This feature request has to wait because there are more important things to fix first. Server side the the IMAP lib already provides functions for threaded message listing.
- French translation : Thanks Thomas, for having commited french
language modifications ! just one remark : we (Aurélien and I) prefer to translate "junk" into "indésirables" ;-)
Wasn't me but I now changed the Junk label. "Indésirables" is also what the Apple Mail application uses for Junk.
- LDAP support : I read in the list archives, that the public ldap
search has to be rewritten completely (http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/roundcube.dev/2006/09/136/) Does anyone has more info about it ? Can I help ?
First to come is an interface (class) that abstracts the address book access. It's up to me to create this. After that I'm glad to get some help for the LDAP implementation.
best regards,
Regards, Thomas
