This is still a little confusing to me, but it looks like you don't need vlogin. The idea behind vlogin is that users don't have to type in the whole IMAP user name - the host portion is automatically taken from the domain of the URL they used to get to the webmail page. That is: A user could type "zordah" if they went to http://caramon.zordah.net/mail and they would be automatically logged in to IMAP using "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". (it would also allow [EMAIL PROTECTED] to log in, but they could not type "sales" without "@cscs.com.au" unless the URL they used was http://cscs.com.au/mail or similar). (So valid logins for http://caramon.zordah.net/mail would be: zordah, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]) The only other use for vlogin has been for people hosting multiple domains where usernames are not dependent on virtual domain names, but they want custom logos on the login page (or other features) for each of the virtual domains they host. So it depends on: -- if you have more than one domain's webmail pointing at the same SM installation (and if you need any customization per domain) -- what you want your users to type on the login page (regardless of the actual IMAP username) > I had permission problems at first due to having basename restrictions > on in PHP. I solved that and it DID create the [EMAIL PROTECTED] > file but I think the @ in the filename could be confusing it? That should not be a problem. What are the permissions and ownership on that directory? ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ApacheCon, November 18-21 in Las Vegas (supported by COMDEX), the only Apache event to be fully supported by the ASF. http://www.apachecon.com -- squirrelmail-users mailing list List Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] List Archives: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=2995 List Info: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
