New storage for user preferences

Hi,

Maybe I should have asked first, but then again, it was to easy to
implement. :) Totally new to this mailinglist, so sorry if this was discussed
before.. (where are archives?)

Attached is a patch that stores user preferences in a table called
user_preferences, instead of an associative, serialized array..

• main.inc has 2 new functions: rcmail_get_userprefs() and

rcmail_save_userpref()

• steps/settings/save_prefs.inc: using the rcmail_save_userpref()

function (still saving using serializing..)

• added table structure for MySQL (mysql.initial.sql)

Applying patch: go into roundcubemail (0.1-20051007 I used), patch - p1 < roundcubemail-userprefs.patch

Hope this helps a bit :) Any comments are welcome ofcourse. Thinking of making a new table
holding other data like signatures.. Or?

Best regards,

Geert
