Fair enough. You wrote: > I have had this happen twice now.

On the same day they both reported not being able to check their info So the login username that you give to SquirrelMail (and thus to IMAP) is "info_rt", which is different than "info_ozs", so there should not be any confusion with accounts as far as SM is concerned. The mapping appears to be just a MTA thing from what I can tell from your description. I would personally recommend a system where they can actually use their full and real email addrses to log in, but that's OT. > My concern was not that my SquirrelMail was suddenly behaving as a sentient > being (LOL) and making decisions on its own and thus changing passwords on There is a mind-reader plugin under development currently by some of the SM developers, and I think that once that one is done, we'll be well under way with a sentience package.

Look at your IMAP logs when they log in -- the username as IMAP knows it is probably "info_xx", thus they are quite distinct. -paul > Anyone else have an issue like this? > > Thanks again for the quick and helpful response. > > Mail server: IMAP - dovecot > PHP - 4.3.11 > Web server - Apache 2.0.53 > This is a stock installation of Redhat Fedora Core 3, which uses RPM. > Squirrelmail version: 1.4.6 > Web server: Raid 5 windows 2003 > > John Glynn ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
