I was thinking, "wouldn't it be nice if I could configure imapd and sqwebmaild to point to the same shared folder index file?"

Then I looked through the source code, and found that I could. However the configuration setting is not included in the default sqwebmaild configuration file.

The attached patch adds it. It also allows sharedindexinstall to take a parameter giving the chosen directory, rather than forcing you to use the hardcoded location.

Regards,

Brian.
