I'm currently running a 1.4.3 squirrelmail server ( yeah I know ... upgrade ). I'm after 'edit as new' support, ie using an existing template to create a new email. Is this possible with Squirrelmail? I checked the changelog, and couldn't find any changes about 'template' or 'edit as new'.

There's a difference?

squirrelmail is a webmail frontend to an IMAP server, and is written in PHP.

sqwebmail is a webmail which makes direct disk access to a Maildir, and is written in C.

They are different projects by different authors and share no code at all.

Does sqwebmail support 'edit as new' functionality?

You can put a template in the user's mailsig, but that's about it.

If you want to provide a frontend for braindead salespeople, maybe you should just write a HTML page which collects the information in a form, and then posts it to a fixed address (using some sort of formmail-type CGI).

Brian.
