I refer to my earlier comments on RoundCube build 20051021 (attached below) and the subsequent modification made by Thomas Bruederli yesterday:
(a) I could see that Thomas has corrected the problem 1) and 4) below.
(b) Problem 5) is still not corrected. I am not sure if this is a bug in the script or how the server is handling the deleted mails.
(c) Thomas has combined the two rows of top icons into one single row ... forgetting that there are many people out there still using 800x600 monitor resolution. On my 800x600 display, the icons are overlapping one another making navigation impossible. It is a bad idea to combine the two rows of icons. Please revert.
(d) Not sure if Thomas has done anything to item 3). I forgot to test this before I revert back to the default skin.
Conclusion: Due to the problem (c) mentioned above, the "modified" skin is not a solution to the default skin.

Comments on RoundCube :
near the top. I clicked on the down-arrow button (with FireFox) of the menu many times and nothing happened. On the 99th click, I then realized that you have to click very near to the TOP edge of the button so that you get the drop-down.
clicking on the top "E-Mail" button (with FireFox) gives no response (but still clickable).

Those modifications were made by me, not Thomas B, for the record.
And your statement about 800x600 support is correct, that skin doesn't work on such screens yet. This will be solved by changing the taskbar icons so that the text is under the icon instead of next to it, but I can't figure out where in the code this is done. If someone wants to point me in that direction, please do. Until then, thats the best I can do. I will not change my skin back to the two rows, because it wastes tons of space, and the changing of the text placement will solve smaller screen issues. The issue about the trash showing emails is something related to the script, my changes simply alter the skin. Additionally, I have never witnessed that bug as you mention it. As far as entering email addresses, I agree with the problem, but disagree with your solution. I think the best answer is to keep the current box size (leaves plenty of room for many email addresses), but change it so either a ',' ';' or newline can separate an email. That way, users don't have to try and guess what standard this problem uses, they will work instead.

Comments on RoundCube :
- When you read an email, you will see the "move to ..." drop-down
menu near the top. I clicked on the down-arrow button (with FireFox) of the menu many times and nothing happened. On the 99th click, I then realized that you have to click very near to the TOP edge of the button so that you get the drop-down.
- When you are at the viewing the email list or reading an email,
clicking on the top "E-Mail" button (with FireFox) gives no response (but still clickable).
- When composing an email, you should separate email addresses (if
you are sending to multiple recepients) with commas and NOT entering them in multiple rows. If you enter the email addresses in rows, mailing will fail. The developer should change this to a single-row input box instead of the misleading area input box.
- The compose email form is not properly displayed. The bottom edge
of the form is not viewable under FireFox. No problem with IE6.
- Sometimes when there is no emails under Trash, the left panel will
show something like "Trash (7)". After switching view a few times and even re-login, it is still showing the same thing. Why?
- Lastly, when integrate into cPanel's webmail login page (at
www.yourdomain.com/webmail), how do I skip from logging in the second time?
