Zitat von Lukas Gradl <[email protected]>:

Hi!

I'm still thinking about a possibility to automaticall attaching a file in compose-window, as this is a big showstopper for replacing desktop-clients by horde/imp.

Main reason why I would like to have that funcionality is, that another software running here tries to send printouts as PDF-files via Mail. So far they just call the MUA via MAPI (Windows) or mailto: (Linux) and the corresponding attachment= parameters.

Unfortunatly I don't have the php-knowledge to find really search for a good (and secure) solution to that problem.

So I'm a little bit guessing around. Perhaps one of the developers can take a look at my ideas and at least tell if it's worth thinking about?


So this is what I'm thinking about right now:
To develop a small desktop helper app (something I am able of and I am willing to do and contribute) that takes over the MAPI-call (Windows) and the mailto: Link (Linux), stores the file via some secure way on the horde server (perhaps on some storage horde can reach via a vfs backend?) and then calls imp via it's compose-link passing a reference to the file on horde vfs.

So the concrete question is: Is there a possibility or could that possibility be added to pass a file reference to a file already on the server to the imp compose window? Perhaps as part of the mailto link?

This already existed in the past. It was possible to attach file from Gollem, though only manually, not by link. Of course there are some security implications to do this automatically, I don't think we should allow that without explicit confirmation by the user.
