Given that for my own deployment the main requirements are the ability to
read and send mail when off-site I'd find it very useful if I could
configure IMP a manner such that 'compose' doesn't require javascript, or
even better use the algorithm 'if the preferences are not set to 'compose
in separate window' then avoid javascript.'
I suspect the simplest obvious solution is to hack the browser detection
code to always return 'no javascript', which is probably worth a trial to
see how much it afects the IMP behaviour.
How extensive would the required code changes be ? Any pointers on where
to start hacking ?
Thanks,
Martin.
P.S. Time to hunt out a good 'learning PHP' reference text - any
suggestions for someone who's a passable perl programmer ?
