Hi Javier and Chris!! Javier: 1.- Sorry, the translator script is a shell script written in PHP (to take the db info and rest). It's easy to make a UI (frontend) for this. 2.- What is RPC? 3.- That's a good idea to make them compatible, but structured filtering is not just ordered filtering. I mean: we should work on improving the old UI to be able to create what the new one can: reply, forward, delete, copy and if/else. Copy and if/else are the most complicated features to develop on the text UI, because these have 2 possibilities after them.
Chris: 1.- RoundCube have to know which is the end filtering system because probably not all of them have all the features (actual and future), so you (as mail admin) will need to block some of the features. For sure this is a config issue. ¿Are we able to make an admin entrance to enable RC administration via web? It would be great!! 2.- Every mail system has it's own and very different working method. You can have, for example, a DB based users auth or just a Linux users auth, IMAP on a server and RC on another one and LDAP auth on a third one, etc You can configure each of the filtering system nearly as you want, so it's difficult for RC to do all the work. What I mean is that mail configuration is nearly chaotic to improve all the possibilities. Due to this issue, we can think on an intermediate solution, which, for example, lets the admin to create the scripts that will be executed by RC automatically to save the filters on the right way. 2008/1/10, J.
