GossMail 1.1.5 problems
Ok,

I did a clean install of the program (I haven't tried the program since the 1.0.0 version).

I did a web-based install, and once I got all the permissions set right it completed ok.

After the install, though, it insisted on trying to run the admin.cgi from a path that did not include the 'cgi-bin' portion of the path/url. The paths were set correctly in the setup.

Also, once installed, on send a message, the mouse-over on the graphics yeilds broken graphics. I'm assuming some are missing.

(I put the /images directory in the /doc/ root, since Apache won't serve images directly from a ScriptAlias directory).

The reason I delayed so long on trying a new version, is I'm running qmail in some configuration I did not set up originally, and the system works with POP mail boxes without a problem. I set up a unix user, and they have automatic POP mail. But, I can't get GossMail to access the incoming mail for those users. I can send mail... but it won't pick up. (I can pick up by another POP program).

I'm hoping to eventually do a ground-up reinstall of qmail, but shouldn't GossMail be able to pick up the mail if other programs can?

Sounds like there were problems in the install. Check your Webmail/Config.pm and make sure all the paths and URL's are there.

As for the images, make sure you have a /images/webmail folder with the images in that directory.

If you are using POP's, make sure you add a <%Webmail::get_pop%> tag to your main page. That tag will pull in the users mail.

Cheers,

Alex

Alex,

The install reported no problems.

Also, almost all the images serve ok, just the 3 'mouse over' images in the Send Message popup box are broken.

Which template, and where does the <%Webmail::get_pop%>

I tried a few places, but still no mail pick up.
