I second this, it would be very handy and it can be inferred from the URL. Perhaps put it after the username box as static text so users know what it will do.

I posted this a while back on the users list and don't recall whether it was possible or not.

I simply want the text box portion of the username field to be pre-populated with my domain name (@domainxyz.com) so my users just have to type in their username.

Is this possible?

Apologies, I'm sure that line number reference is a bit useless depending on the version of the program you have installed, so it should go after these lines, or thereabouts:

function rcmail_login($user, $pass, $host=NULL) { global $CONFIG, $IMAP, $DB, $sess_user_lang; $user_id = NULL;

Cheers, Richard

Replace with your domain suffix and hey presto.

This would obviously be better to parameterise the domain suffix in the settings file. Not having submitted any stuff to CVS before, can anyone point me to what I need to do to submit work?

Instead, I've replaced it with this:

if (!strpos($user, "@")) { $hn = $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]; $hn = preg_replace('/^www./', '', $hn); $user .= "@". $hn; }

which will always substitute the correct username based on the server
name. It removes the www part from the name, however.

Seems to work for me under the recently released beta.

Apologies, just realised that my first point about my @debian login doesn't apply anyway, as this is picked up by the default_host setting, so it's just the mail.* eventuality that needs addressing from my point of view.

Thanks, Richard

Unfortunately that will not work for me... I actually host my webmail on my home server, so, for example, my actual imap login is rgreen@debian, but my external URL (and therefore HTTP_HOST) is completely different.

Additionally, my webmail on my burninghorizons server goes by the name MAIL.burninghorizons.net, so you can't just replace www!

Maybe we could extend that a little so that if there is a mail_suffix (or something) setting, it uses that primarily, otherwise tries to parse the HTTP_HOST by removing www / mail prefixes as you have described below?

Normally servers uses user@domain.com... The patch i made is for servers with many different hosts, to get your hostname you can try to use php_uname('n'), this will return the local server hostname.
