This problem is with SQWebmail (3.4.0.20021026). I would like to know if this has been identified by the developers. If not I would be happy to help them to see this problem does exist. If it has been identified, is there a fix?
I don't want to install an older version on my production server. Has anyone tried the newest version? Will it fix this problem? Thanks in advance for any info.
