We offer SquirrelMail as the webmail interface to about 55000 university
users, students and staff; actually we have logins from about 17000
different accounts in 30 days. Most of our users are not very
technically minded.

Recently we had a complaint by one user that some of his messages
wouldn't display correctly in the interface as with, say, Gmail; it
turned out that they did when he enabled the "Show HTML Version by
Default" option.

We have had complaints like this from time to time, and we assume that
there are many more who do not complain, but instead just think our
webmail system sucks, and what can you expect at a university?

We are now thinking of enabling this option for all users; most may not
even know it exists, but will probably be happy with the change. Some
may complain about the change, but we hope to appease them with
instructions how to revert it.


Are there any other issues to consider? I see that SquirrelMail does not
load external images by default, but that I can load them with a click,
which is the right thing to do, so no privacy issues here.

Any other concerns?

Best regards, Juergen.
