Unable to save email addresses from messages into contact table

[yitbos]

Hi...thanks for the great product..It took me a while to get setup but it works great.....One problem I am having is

Clicking on the "+" sign next to an email address to add them as a contact generates the following error in a red bar at the top of the page :

"Could not save the contact address"

It does check to see if it is already an address, because when I try to add an address that is already in my address book it says

"A Contact with this email address already exists"

So I am guessing I might be having a problem writing from this page to the contact tbale...any ideas ?

Also...is there a way to keep messages in the DB after I pop the mail server? If logout of roundcube abd then pop the mail sever from another client..I lose the messages I had in my Roundcube inbox...


Thanks...J

RoundCube has nothing at all to do with that. Your IMAP SERVER is simply responding to instructions coming from your POP MAIL CLIENT. Reconfigure your pop mail CLIENT to leave a copy of each message on the server as opposed to deleting them after retrieval.

ya..I figured that out...that was actually a dumb question, but thanks for the response...

any idea on why I cannot use the "+" sign to add contacts ? I noticed another post here recently with someone having the same issue....?

I am having this problem of not being able to add contacts by using the "+".

[Native message: Field 'firstname' doesn't have a default value]  in \program\include\rcube_mdb2.php on line 533 (POST /?_task=mail&_action=addcontact?_task=&_action=)

The above is from the error log.

Any help?

i guess you have an outdated database. edit db field ´firstname´ in contacts table - maybe others too - to default to NULL.

That seemed to be the problem.

Had to change both firstname and surname fields to NULL instead of NOT_NULL
