The MAX_FILE_SIZE is set using the plugin's configuration variable $aie_csv_maxsize. See the plugin documentation how to configure the plugin settings; there are two ways to do it. > question: does anyone uses MySQL for that, instead of text files ? > does it make sense...? For SquirrelMail user data, you mean? We have discussed this here; there is definitely an advantage to it if want to share user data between multiple SquirrelMail frontend servers. Maybe there is a performance issue for really large installations. Ours is just medium size (single server, about 16000 active users in 30 days), and filesystem performance does not seem to be an issue. The strongest point for us against using a database backend are our abuse handling processes. Quite often cracked accounts go with typical changes in the user settings (e.g. changed Reply-To), and it is not only necessary to find these changes at all, but also when they have happened. Procedures to do this have been implemented using the history of the settings files in the backups, and it would be a bit more difficult to do this with settings in a database -- and of course extra work that *I* would have to do. :-) > is there a way to use say ISOLatin2 chars ?

With this, it can read messages in any character set, provided the character set is declared correctly in the message header. (If you have a significant amount of messages in some character set that is not correctly declared, I'd try to export them to local files using some IMAP client, insert a valid Content-Type declaration in the message header, and put them back on the IMAP server.) A consequence of doing this is, though, that SquirrelMail sends all email messages in UTF-8. But I think nowadays everybody should have a MUA that can cope with it.
