OT: Using SquirrelMail as web-mail on Linux + plugins

[Steve Johnson]

Wow =)  I've been using SM for a couple months now and love it, Is there
any possibility I can get a copy of your re-written SA plugin?  If so
please e-mail it to me =) (srj at adnd.com)

> SquirrelMail is a web-based mail client that permits you to use your web
> server, a web browser, imap server and/or pop3 server, and SMTP
> client/server in order to send and receive mail.
> For my install, I am using qmail (SMTP server), Apache(with
> php4.3.0,mod_ssl, and mod_dav(unrelated)), courier-imap, and a web
> browser.))

> The reasons for this e-mail on the client, is that I have been playing
> with the stable (1.2.10) tree as well as the soon-to-be-stable dev tree
> (1.4.0) and the addition of new plugins.

> So, I found the latest release, (v 2.0 beta) of the SpamAssassin plugin,
> and after extensive re-writes and modification (about a 20k diff file) I
> have a plugin that appears to work fairly well with 1.2.10 and 1.4.0.
