Restrict Senders is already coded correctly for being translated. You only need to create a .po and .mo and put them in the right place. When you're done, please share with the community if you would. You should send it to our squirrelmail-i18n mailing list (and this question would also have been more appropriate there). > So, what it looks like, is that I have to change where it says > "viw_as_html", and put instead "restrict_senders". > But.. there's a configuration with the "if" that I don't know if that will > apply to the restrict_senders plugin... ? > So I am a bit stuck over there. > Thank you. > > > > > -- Paul Lesniewski SquirrelMail Team Please support Open Source Software by donating to SquirrelMail! http://squirrelmail.org/donate_paul_lesniewski.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.
