Good morning!
I just installed Round Cube on my personal mail server two days ago, and already I'm enfatuated with it. Comparing it to the Squirrelmail installation that I've used for the last few years is like night and day, and I have to offer my compliments and my thanks to the people who have written it.
There are a few features that I miss, though; specifically automagically including my .sig file and checking the server for new messages periodically. I see that both of these are included in the road map on the web site, but being the impatient soul that I am, I want them now. ;-)
Is anyone currently working on either of these features? If not, I would be more than happy to step up and contribute them myself. If no one has objections to me adding these, is there an existing spec for the features, a coding standards doc, etc?
Thanks, Chuck Harris chuckjharris@yahoo.com

Sure!

No, I don't think that anybody is working on one of these topics. If you like to dig into the code, you're welcome to add these features and post the patches here.
Unfortunately I didn't have the time to write some specs for development. You really have to take a look at the code but at least I tried to add many comments to the functions. For specific help please contact me.
For the signature, there's already a database field prepared within the contacts table. I'm not sure what you have in mind for the ".sig file" but a simple text signature would be good to start with. Please discuss additional features (like attaching a VCard as signature) here at the list.

Hi !!

It would be great to think about multiple per-user signatures that could be related to entries in the addressbook, i.e, many users would like to have an english signature for english people, spanish signature for spanish people, company signature with disclaimer for work related mails or a funny signature for friends. Signature could be selectable through a combo box when composing the message (if there is more than one signature). If this sounds good i could help coding.
