Imail's web thingy uses 2 types of cgi. Any html include files have to have
the .cgi as an extension or the html isn't parsed. The other cgi such as
login.cgi are internals from the Imail web server.
Unfortunatly there is no way to access this cgi from outside the imail
server. The only way I've found that works is to pass the user id and
password to the existing login.html . Modify the template file so that it
acts as a redirect.
The next glitch is that due to the port difference you can't just use
cookies as Netscape regards www.xyz.com and www.xyz.com:8383 as separate
domains and won't pass the cookie. Lastly the Imail server can't handle the
post or get method from outside its own server.
You have to manually build the url string and do a "document.location = "
from the outside and then strip the name and password from the querystring
on the Imail side.
If you aren't comfortable with Javascript mail me off list and I'll send you
the code snippets to handle this.
