Pardon.  I didn't think anyone used webmail without https.  If you did then browser cache is the least of your worries. 
  Even so this answer would have sufficed no matter what I was doing on the server side.  None of the code has been 
edited and the php.ini has not been changed as suggested so then it must be a broken browser. Thanks consider this case 
closed as it couldn't be your great software.
