Added:
Attachments:

* Can't add attachments.

** DirectoryPermissionsProblem

** PHPenableUploadsProblem

* I can't download large attachments.

** LowMemoryProblem

* Attachments can only be so big. Any bigger and they fail.

** AttachmentSize

* Internet Explorer acts weird when I want to download attachments

** InternetExplorerDownloads

Folders:

* I can't move/delete large messages.

** DisableTrashcan

* Can't see folders I had in another IMAP mail reader.

** MissingFolders

* My folder list is HUGE! It is listing all directories on the server!

** FolderListWithUW

* My drop-down folder list doesn't contain any folders

** FolderListWithUW

* I'm seeing ghost folders in my folder list -- they really don't exist.

** GhostFolders

* My mail is not being delivered to the "Inbox" instead to "Mailbox". Now I can't use the "Sent", "Trash" or "Drafts" folders.

** You've got your SquirrelMail settings configured incorrectly. Go back and change your delivery settings using conf.pl.

* It turns out that what I needed to change was where Postfix was delivering my messages. All fixed now. It wasn't a SquirrelMail setting after all.

* Folders that have subfolders are sometimes not reachable (can't click), even though there are messages inside. When I unsubscribe and resubscribe, they become reachable again, but now I have the same thing on my INBOX : When I click on another folder, I cannot go back to INBOX again, because the INBOX is not clickable in the folderlist. Using an url like https://myhost/squirrelmail/src/right_main.php?PG_SHOWALL=0&sort=0&startMessage=1&mailbox=INBOX will open the inbox in another window, and other webmail clients can still select the inbox directly, just not squirrelmail.

**This problem occurs due to an if structure in left_main.php near line 386. I commented that and haven't found side effects yet.

** change line 386 to (it is documented in cvs) if (!$boxes->is_noselect || strtolower($boxes->mailboxname_full)=="inbox") {

* I can't rename a folder to be within a subfolder (ie: cannot rename mail/testfolder to mail/test/testfolder.

** Fixed by removing "substr_count($new_name, $delimiter) || " from src/folders_rename_do.php, line 41 (squirrelmail 1.4.5). Seems that the UW IMAP server uses '/' as a delimiter and squirrelmail considers a folder name that contain that delimiter to be illegal. Makes some sense on one hand, but removes needed capabilities on the other.

* Can't delete folders: "Cannot delete currently-open folder." Created test folder and immediately tried to delete it. It was never "open".

Mail sending:

* Can't talk to your mail server.

** MailServerSMTPProblem

* Can not send mail.

** NetscapeDelayProblem

* When trying to send mail, I get an error from the IMAP server.

** RedHatUnbalancedProblem

* Can not send mail outside of my system.

** Your SMTP server does not permit relaying from the address webserver script is connecting to it. Check your SMTP servers docs about relaying.

* Mail sent has the wrong time on it

** SystemTimeMisconfigured

* All of the buttons on the compose email screen simply refresh the page and clear the form.

** PHPenableUploadsProblem

* Compose screen doesn't respond (but mail is sent) on Mac OS X

** See install instructions here: InstallingSquirrelMailMacOSX and read this: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user/18292

Mail viewing:

* I love colouring the message headers and it works if I use the Subject line - but not if I enter anyone's email address as a From filter.

* I keep getting an error about UnsafeImages

* The time seems to be wrong.

** InvertTimeProblem

** SystemTimeMisconfigured

** Time displayed keeps getting further and furhter behind actual time, for all timezones. Help!

* CannotSeeAnything I cannot see any message or folder, but it works with another IMAP client

Security / Logging Into SquirrelMail:

* I can see my password or other sensitive files in SquirrelMail!

** FolderListWithUW

* SquirrelMail doesn't seem to be secure enough for me.

** SquirrelMailSecurity

* My data directory is visible on the web!

** SquirrelMailSecurity

** DataAndAttachmentsDirectories

* How do I allow multiple virtual hosts to log in with one install?

** VirtualHosts

* I can't seem to log in properly (I use IMAPS)

** SquirrelMailIMAPS

* Internet Explorer has lots of warnings when using SSL

** InternetExplorerVersusSSL

* I can't login -- I get a standard error about not being able to find/resolve the page.

** WindowsDynamicDNS

* I can't login -- I get "You must be logged in to access this page" or "User unknown or bad password" message.

** SetEnableCookies

* I am logged out at odd times during active use such as when writing a long mail

** AutoLogout

* Blank login page and errors in apache's logfile

** BlankLoginPagePHP

* The previous user didn't logout, and now my e-mail address is displayed instead of mine.

** RememberToLogout

Speed:

* It seems kinda slow. What can I do?

** [Optimizing SquirrelMail]

** SquirrelMailPerformance - Various performance improvement tips

** WebServerHardware - Web server speed & memory

** SpeedingUpPHP - Zend, afterburner, etc

** SpeedWithPHPDBG - DBG PHP debugger affects speed of login page

** TranslateMethod - PHP-based versus gettext

** SquirrelMailIMAPS - If you use IMAPS (stunnel or whatever)

** DisablingTCPWrapper - Gain a tiny bit of speed by disabling some security

* SquirrelMail seems to work sometimes, and during peak mail reading times, it doesn't work anymore.

** ConnectionsPerMinute

** ResolvingDNS

Translations:

* It's not translating! What's wrong?

** TranslateGettext - Common gettext problems and solutions

* It doesn't have my language. What can I do?

** HelpTranslating - You need to make a new translation

* It only translates some words. What can I do?

** HelpTranslating - The translation is out of date and needs to be updated

* I run Solaris and translations aren't working right.

** GettextOnSolaris - Solaris's gettext is funky

Plugins:

* FiltersDontWork - I create a filter and click Done, the filter either doesnt appear or doesnt update correctly.

* Filters for headers don't work - The filter will not examine inside the header only "from" and "to" fields.

* Administrator Plugin (Windows Only) requires changing line $auth = in_array("$username\n", $auths); to $auth = in_array("$username\r\n", $auths); in file auth.php to enable use of config/admins file.

* When using the 0.6 s/mime plugin, Squirrelmail recognizes the message as being s/mime signed, but does not display the signer information in the brief header window. It displays "This message has been S/MIME signed", "Signer: <>, verified". Notice the empty <>. I would expect this to display either the full Subject from the cert or at least the Subject CN.

* The combination of Login:Auto v1.1 and HTML Mail v2.3 is not good. After auto-logging in, HTML Mail doesn't load. I have to: either log out and back in or go to preferences and save them immediately. I'm using SquirrelMail 1.4.13 on Apache 2.2.8 and PHP 5.2.5. It happens in both IE7 and FF2.

Misc:

* PluginsOrThemesNotLoading - When using Apache2.x and PHP4.2.3 plugins or themes don't appear to work

* NoneOfMyChangesAreSaved in Folder Preferences - I even re-installed SquirrelMail from scratch, and they still don't save.

* BlankPage - When I try to do this or that, all I get is a blank page.
