Already searched the lists, but didn?t find a solution for my topic, so I hope, you might give me a hint where to look at: Is it possible to initialize Xinha or FCKEditor with a pre-determined font face and font size? I?d like to send all messages with e.g. "Arial, small". For FCKeditor, reading http://docs.fckeditor.net/FCKeditor_2.x/Developers_Guide/Configuration/Configuration_Options/DefaultFontLabel, I assumed that setting FCKConfig.DefaultFontLabel="Arial" in fckconfig.js would give the

tag a font-family option. But the message still looks like this: (...)

test

--> signature

Whereas setting the font manually in FCKEditor, the message reads:

Test


Test
I also edited the EditorAreaCSS which resulted in a well formatted text (arial, small) in the textarea, but the messages sent by Imp still do look the same. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance for helping.

The auto-generated CVS revision number doesn't quite work with patching - your diff is seeing this identical CVS ID string and thinks that the patch has already been applied.

Trying and trying I found this in Turba prefs: // Address books to be displayed in the address book selection widget // and in the Browse menu item. The address book name is stored using // the source key from sources.php (e.g. "localsql"). Separate // entries with "\n" , e. g. 'value' => "localsql\nlocalldap" (the // double quotes are REQUIRED). If 'value' is empty (''), all address // books that the user has permissions to will be listed. $_prefs['addressbooks'] = array( 'value' => "localsql\nlocalldap", 'locked' => false, 'shared' => false, 'type' => 'implicit', ); By default value is empty, but I see that adding the same value stored into value of imp $_prefs['search_sources'], then auto-expand works again!

The successor to HTTPMail (used by Windows Live Mail) apparently uses encryption in at least a portion of the protocol (see http://blog.danielparnell.com/?p=54). This protocol feature, along with the fact that Microsoft is fairly consistent about preventing outside access to the servers (I'm pretty sure it's in the website license), makes a pretty strong D.M.C.A. violation, at least according to the way many courts have ruled in similar cases. michael -- ___________________________________ Michael Slusarz [slusarz at horde.org] From jan at horde.org Thu Sep 4 20:42:17 2008 From: jan at horde.org (Jan Schneider) Date: Thu, 04 Sep 2008 22:42:17 +0200 Subject: [imp] Fwd: Re: HTTPMail Message-ID: <20080904224217.91775prm4b5xd9wc@neo.wg.de> ----- Weitergeleitete Nachricht von steve at falchion.com ----- Datum: Thu, 04 Sep 2008 13:15:18 -0700 Von: Steve Paras-Charlton Betreff: Re: [imp] HTTPMail An: Jan Schneider And further, if why use IMP as a (go-between) server when Outlook can access IMAP and POP3 directly?

This change is expected, because people were confused to see address books in the mail client that they had disable in the address book's preferences. If you wonder why not all address books are used even if the default is empty, this is probably because you already saved your address book preferences for turba, so that the default value no longer applies.

There is not much anyone can do but to keep their (and users) passwords safe. Because Horde and IMP are open source, spammers do always have the access to the source code and hence can always find a way to send spam simulating a browser if they have correct credientials to use the system. Summa summarum: It's not the client programs fault if someone gets credientials needed to send spam via the program. From a spammers point of view the same thing can be accomplished with numerous other email clients as well (programs running on workstations are off course a bit harder to hack). -- Jussi Paju - luoja, creator - :: Te audire no possum.

I do realize it is not the fault of the client programs. The users should pay extreme attention to their credientials not to let others get it. But if in this case, you have any idea to avoid or just decrease its impact to the mail server? Let's say, control the maximun number of recipients in horde/imp TO field and number of sending mails in a certain period of time by using horde/imp in horde/imp configuration?

I am just asking for suggest to improve > in Horde/IMP webmail environment. I hope it's obvious that we won't publish all the measures taken against spammers as they too can read this list. An important improvement to IMP is to integrate it with a junk mail classifier like SpamAssassin so that users can clearly see when a message looks like junk mail. This reduces the chance of a user being taken in. It's also important to check outbound messages to see if they look like spam, even if all this does is to alert someone that there may be a problem. -- Tim Bannister Email system administrator IT Services division The University of Manchester t: +44 161 2757797 w: http://www.manchester.ac.uk/itservices
