Hi everyone,
I have 3 suggestions regarding the setup of squirrelmail in Bill's toaster.
One is to let sq now that we're running courier-imap
./conf.pl
press 2
press a
type 'courier'
pree R to return
Two is to enable serverside (ie. imap) sort and search instead of PHPs to
speed up displaying of messages.
I have about 1500 messages and it takes some time after they show up if
these options are not enabled, and if they are, it's a snap.
So, being in the main menu:
press 4
press 10
press y
press 11
press y
press R to return
Three is to enable lossy encoding. I always thought that option sounds bad
but It is required if you expect
people to respond in other charsets than iso-8859-1. Eg. if this option is
not enabled and a user receives
a UTF-8 encoded message, then when replying to it, he (the user) will see
that those UTF-8 characters are being
badly encoded. This fixes it (and of course introduces the possibility that
unknown characters will be converted to
question marks) and my users have all the stuff showing right now.
The same can be achieved by finding and setting these 3 options in
config.php:
$imap_server_type = 'courier';
$allow_thread_sort = true;
$allow_server_sort = true;
What do you think?
Best regards,
Maciej Soltysiak
