Hello, I posted here a couple of days ago a note about the php vpopmail extension and I got in touch with Rick Widmer who has done some progress on it. As I wrote then - we want to write high level php/Smarty GUI for vpopmail management module.
The main stumbling block seems the need to run Apache as vpopmail user. I have not investigated deep enough, but this seems to be one of the main reasons why the extension is somehow dead. In our company we had a discussion on the issue and the prevailing opinion is that we should not waste time with the extension, but write a daemon. This weekend we will experiment with that. Today, searching more in depth on the issue - I found some postings on this list by people who are in favour of daemon. If anybody is interested in the issue - I would be glad to discuss it. We started a small 'unofficial' wiki to try to coordinate the effort - www.verysmall.org/vpopmail - there we have published details about the php/Smarty vpopmail manager we plan to write. Looking forwards for some feedback. Best, Iavor
