thanks

$rcmail_config['debug_level'] = 1;
That is simply the log level with 8 as maximum. To see what they change, just activate them.

$rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'mail.1550.co.nz';
If you leave this blank, you will be able to specify your host via a textbox on the loginscreen.

$rcmail_config['mail_domain'] = '';
If you use no default_host you are able to create a dropdown box with several servers.

$rcmail_config['virtuser_file'] = '';
$rcmail_config['virtuser_query'] = '';
The Virtuser file is for people whos logins are not easy to remember. For example web0p4 instead of the eMail. In that case you can setup a Virtuser File which translates the login web0p4 to an eMail Adress.
The Virtuser Query explains roundcube how to use your virtuser file.

I have not tried this yet as have not had time.

If should be something like.

'mail.domain1.com', 'mail.domain2.com', 'mail.domain3.com'

If you would like you can test it for me.

I believe this may be of use:
PHP Arrays

I use sendmail as a mail server and implement the virtusertable file under /etc/mail.

should the 'virtuser_file' be '/etc/mail/virtusertable' or the hash file '/etc/mail/virtusertable.db'?

Could you give me an example of a standard 'virtuser_query' query script?

can anyone please announce two words to the virtual-user behaviour?
Where the file should be placed? How should a query be structured?
I want to use this gorgeous function, but I'm unable to deal with it :(

@ pulldown menu:
Quote
// the mail host chosen to perform the log-in
// leave blank to show a textbox at login, give a list of hosts
// to display a pulldown menu or set one host as string.
// To use SSL connection, enter ssl://hostname:993
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = array('imap.domain1.com','imap.domain2.de');

The query should be structured as the comments say: returning the email address first.

The file can be placed anywhere you want, just make sure you put the proper path to it in the config file.

Are the query and the file two different ways to resolve a login name with the email address?
Could you please give me an example file-content and query?

thx!

The file, I'm not sure of....

The query is a query upon the users table of the Roundcube Database... something like:
Code: [Select]
SELECT email
FROM rc_users
WHERE alias LIKE '%$email%'
  OR email LIKE '%$email%'
