Modifications to AeroMail 2.22 (Proposed 2.23 release)
***** NOTE ***** I've been working with Dion Nicolaas, the maintainer
of AeroMail 2.x. Essentially every change I had made below has been greatly
improved and added into versions 2.30 and above. Please go to the main
project site at http://aeromail.nicolaas.net/
for the latest release.
In order to make Aeromail meet the needs of our community project,
VectorStar Networks, we made a bunch
of changes and bugfixes. Below is a list of the major changes:
Version 2.23 - Laird Bedore
Functionality:
* Added support and configuration for SSL-encrypted IMAP servers
* Enhanced FORCE_FROM to work with systems where the mail domain is
different than the IMAP_SERVER value - can optionally configure the
SERVER_SUFFIX variable, if different than IMAP_SERVER
* Enhanced local addressing and save-to-sent-items to also use the
SERVER_SUFFIX if defined
* Fixed an infinite loop generated by some inline images
Cosmetics:
* Tweaked the font sizes for better-emphasized readability, forced the
date and size fields to never line-break.
* Adjusted the table layout to adjust to the size of the data first, then
adjust to the size of the screen afterwards
* Tightened display padding in tables to fit better in small browser windows
* Changed background color of table.main (the lines inbetween table cells).
Looks much better on all themes.
* Added missing body style information, greatly simplified the automatic
centering and bordering of the mail table
Features:
* Added option to hide the To: field if it is not desired on folders other
than the sent items folder.
* Added option to force word-wrap when displaying plain text
* Added option to display shorter email address field for addresses that
have the "personal name" defined
* Added option to get rid of duplicate INBOX folder for some IMAP server
configurations
Version 2.23-cookies - Laird Bedore
* Removed HTTP basic authentication and enabled PHP sessions (requires cookies)
* Changed the "Login" button to "Logout" in english language file
* Added configuration in config.inc to define session file save path
