Hi,

I'm working on a new template for sqwebmail. I want to�display the folder list with number of messages but without delete/rename radio buton. However, it seem�not to be possible using templates tags since #L#�returns the folders with radio button.
Can anyone give me a sugestion ? I don't know C...


First, I'd suggest that you're looking for trouble by doing this.

If you don't deactivate the creation of folders while you're at it, then I think you'll find your users starting to complain when they can't delete a folder that they misspelled when they created it -- or have simply gotten tired of having around and want to reorganize their account. ... And you may find yourself with a server of proliferating folder structures that are "troublesome" to delete. ;-)

But with that said, here's a simple patch that should do what you want. -- Of course, you should also delete the (now useless) "Delete folder" button and "Delete folder contents" checkbox in the HTML template itself, if you haven't already.

Like I said, I don't think this is such a hot idea by itself... but nonetheless, if you so choose, then I hope you enjoy it! =)

P.S. This doesn't actually stop a user from deleting folders if they know how sqwebmail works. They could always construct a CGI request manually that would delete a folder. -- It's not easy for most people, but it can be almost trivial if you know what you're doing. -- So this is just a way to *obscure* the feature, not remove it entirely from the code. Removing it would require a bit more investigation than I did for this patch. :-) Might be harder to do, or it might not. But I haven't looked.
