Title: PHP Imap client which supports multiple accounts
Post by: wmac on November 23, 2010, 11:45:56 PM
Hello,

I am looking for a PHP based IMAP client with these requirements:

- User accounts (not same as imap email accounts)

- Each user can add multiple IMAP emails to his account and check/use them.

Is there any solution for my requirements. I checked roundcube but I am not sure it can do this.

Otherwise I will need to either develop a system from scratch or modify an existing one to do my job. I hesitate to develop myself as it will take months if not years to make it stable and bug free.

Could someone please let me know whether I can use roundcube for my usecase?

Regards,
Mac

What do you exactly mean with 'User accounts'? If configured Roundcube automatically creates an account if a user successfully contects to the IMAP server backend.

There is a plugin 'accounts' which allows to host multiple IMAP accounts within one user account (myroundcube - Project Hosting on Google Code (http://myroundcube.googlecode.com)).

By username I mean any type of login information which is not necessarily an email and password. It can be a simple username/password.

The main purpose is just to have multiple email addresses attached to each login.

I guess the one you described is fine.

Hello,
I'm new to round cube. But I installed the accounts plugin and at the top left I have an account symbol, but nowhere a way to add accounts in the preferences.
Where do I add more accounts?

Thank you

Mail4us.net - MyRoundcube Plugins Generic Installation Guide (http://mail4us.net/myroundcube/)

Read requirements (link above).

This plugin requires 'settings' plugin.
