I found that I can remove them, but where are they associated with the actual
offset from the system clock or from GMT? (some of these listed time zones
don't work at all) and how would I create a special timezone named "TI - North
Texas Sites" that was an alias for Central Time.. somehow I suspect this is
being handled by the OS, but I'm not sure where to go poking around.. any
ideas?

Not yet, since the first rollout (one instance of SM per Post Office, on the
post office) will not need multilogin capability, but I'm still trying to
figure out how to use multilogin and vlogin together to do something where a
user types in '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in and it does a redirect to http://server/sitea/
(where the 'sitea' instance points to the same database as
http://sitea/webmail/ (the local SM instance)). Another options is to get SM to
determine how to "go get" the preferences (some sort of username -> pref file
rewrite) since I want to keep preferences between the internal and external
(DMZ) instances of SquirrelMail the same. I've been thinking about some kind of
reverse proxy setup as well, since SquirrelMail would have the latency issue of
connecting to a server overseas anyway... and thinking about some of this tends
to generate a headache. I've been learning more about PHP as a result, so it's
a good thing.

By the way, I've been working with your timeout_user plugin, and have you
considered flagging the timeout on the left (folder) frame? What I've been
trying to accomplish is to get the user to timeout after 11 minutes if they
haven't updated the left frame - by disabling the "Never" option in "Auto
Refresh Folder List" since it should have been updated in 10 minutes or less..
this way if they leave SquirrelMail and go surf off to another site the back
button will be expired in 11 minutes, since the left frame doesn't get updated,
and they're timed out much sooner than 2 hours.. any thoughts?

I'm also working on creating a "flag as spam" plugin that forwards a message
(entire headers and all) as an attachment to a spam submission address and
deletes a message.. similar to the way yahoo mail works. I think this would be
really handy since we have a vendor supplied spam solution.
