So why can't you serve a webmail login page for both domains? Seems reasonable, but even if you can't, you can still configure the plugin in other ways. You can have a user map that tells it how to behave for each user, or the more appropriate thing to do if you offer login to multiple domains from the same login page is to use the Multilogin plugin to let the user decide with a drop-down selection. http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=148 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ----- squirrelmail-users mailing list Posting guidelines: http://squirrelmail.org/postingguidelines List address: squirrelmail-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx List archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.mail.squirrelmail.user List info (subscribe/unsubscribe/change options): https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/squirrelmail-users
