 PHPwebmail - Default branch

Screenshot About:
PHPwebmail is a Web-based IMAP and SMTP mail client. Often it is not possible to make outside mail connections from networks behind strict firewalls, or to configure a regular mail client (for example in an Internet cafe). With PHPwebmail a mail client only needs a WWW connection to the mailserver. Specifically it only needs a connection to the webserver hosting PHPwebmail. Most of the times the Web and mail server will be the same machine but PHPwebmail can connect to other mailservers as well as long as an IMAP connection between these two machines is allowed.

[»] New Version 2.3.2
by Bernard M. Piller - Apr 15th 2003 15:03:32

Bugfix: When using IMAP folders in a subdirectory, "Move mail to" always showed
INBOX selected and not the name of the actual folder.

[»] New Version 2.3.1
by Bernard M. Piller - Feb 22nd 2003 14:58:26

Security update: send_mail.php now uses the move_uploaded_file() function
instead of copy(). On some systems a vulnerability might have made it
possible for a user to attach system files of the machine running PHPwebmail.
Thanks for the hint to Nasir Simbolon.

[»] New Version 2.3
by Bernard M. Piller - Jan 29th 2003 07:18:12

Jan C. Wynholds had the good idea to show only a limited number of messages in the message pane. He sent me the code and I implemented his ideas.
UPGRADES, check webmail.sql for the new field "nummsgs" in the prefs table.

[»] New Version 2.2
by Bernard M. Piller - Jan 7th 2003 04:31:09

Mirko Holler made the following additions:
JavaScript "click & add" feature for addressing in send_mail.php.
Patch in mime.php to mark sent messages in IMAP folders "read".

[»] Version 2.1n
by Bernard M. Piller - Mar 9th 2002 11:31:19

Fixed logout.php, which caused a "could not display page" error in Internet Explorer when PHPwebmail is running on a PHP 4.1 server.

[»] Important security information
by Bernard M. Piller - Mar 1st 2002 06:41:59

This week a security flaw in PHP up to version 4.0.3 was discovered. Forms that use file upload capablities can be used to crack the server.

PHPwebmail uses file uploads to send attachments.

I would not rate the security risk for PHPwebmail very high, since only users with an account can log on to the system and send mail.

Please update your PHP4 version or disable the upload functions in the source of send_mail.php if you have a large or otherwise uncontrolled user base on your server.

[»] Security Update!
by Bernard M. Piller - Jan 12th 2002 06:43:51

Version 2.1m

mail.inc renamed to mail.inc.php
Before one could read the mail.inc file in the webbrowser and see the
MySQL login information.

[»] Update 2.1l is out
by Bernard M. Piller - Jan 1st 2002 13:51:24

For low bandwith connections, the user can now switch to a text only version
of PHPwebmail via the preferences.
In the setup file (mail.inc) the administrator can now also set the color
for links to make "textmode" a little more colorful.

    Thank you for pointing this out. There was an old .sql file included with the tar.gz.
    It is now fixed, please download the new package.

[»] new in 2.1
by Bernard M. Piller - Feb 6th 2001 07:05:39

New features in 2.1 are mainly an address book and a sent mail archive. PHPwebmail now needs MySQL.

    [»] Changelog for 2.1
    by Bernard M. Piller - Jun 26th 2001 03:05:03

    2.1b February 2001

    MySQL integration for a history of sent mails and an address book. A few bugs with mail folders and bcc were also removed. I decided to go with an SQL archive of sent mails instead of an IMAP folder because on many installations the folder IMAP folders will not be possible For example when you have the WU-imapd running on a Unix/Linux box where people don't have regular logins with home directories. In this case simply remove the link to folder_ops.php in iconbar.php

    2.1c February 2001

    Problem with special characters in email address solved when replying. You can now "reply to all".

    2.1d February 2001

    Changes to the frame layout, new icons. "Preferences" function for setting username and return e-mail address. The problem with escaped quotes in subject and body resolved.

    2.1e February 2001

    When replying/forwarding a message the headers are displayed as well.

    2.1f February 2001

    Bug fixes: Fonts, Layout and "Reply"-Flag.

    2.1g February 2001

    Sent messages can now be either stored in the DB or in a "Sent" IMAP folder. Messagebodies are now word wrapped. Fixes a bug introduced in 2.1f, when replying the original message body was not copied into the reply.

    2.1h February 2001

    Fixed a bug with the headers of messages safed in the new "Sent" folder.

    2.1i April 2001

    MySQL can now run on a different server than the webserver. Thanks for the suggestions to Richard Greenwood

    2.1j May 2001

    IMAP mail folders can have a sub directory prefix. Fixed an error with the version numbers. The April 2001 version was wrongly numbered 2.1g again, instead of 2.1i.

    2.1k June 2001

    An error is now displayed, if an uploaded attachment exceeds the 1MB limit.

[»] Bug fixes
by Bernard M. Piller - Jan 28th 2001 19:15:24

Jan 28, 2001 - Changes for version 2.0c

2.0a

An error in logout.php was fixed. A user was not logged out unless the web browser was quit.


2.0b

If a message had no subject it was not possible to read it. Now in such cases "(no subject)" is shown in the mail index.


2.0c

Fixed a lot of problems with HTML mail and Outlook attachments.
Fixed "delete folder" function.
Cleaned up files and unneeded lines of code.
Some cosmetic changes to the mail index frame. Dates are displayed nicely and headers in IMAP folders are checked for From/To fields.
