Hi, I have to pass session or cookis from roundcube webmail to chat application for currently login users
In order to get a sophisticated answer to your question, you should come up with a more detailed description of what you're trying to do and what you have so far.
In general, session cookies are bound to the hostname but can be extended to the entire domain using the $config['session_domain'] config option in Roundcube. If the session cookie reaches the server of your chat application, you can re-use Roundcube sessions by reading them from the same database where Roundcube stores its data. But as said, if you expect a more specific response, we need more details to help you.
Kind regards, Thomas
In general I would say that you should never re-use sessions, but instead let the client setup separate sessions for each application. Re-using sessions can lead to a lot of problems. Most of the times, if you need information from another application, just use the API. My guess is that you want to re-use the authenticated account rather then you would re-use the session. If you're looking for single-sing-on functionality, you'll probably should build a plugin that hooks into the authentication functionality. There are several examples of those online. Please take a look at these links: http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/Plugin_Repository http://trac.roundcube.net/browser/github/plugins/http_authentication/http_au...
