Add Address plugin for SquirrelMail =================================== Ver 1.0.3, 2010/02/02 Copyright (c) 2008-2010 Paul Lesniewski <paul@squirrelmail.org> Description =========== This plugin helps users add addresses to their address book from incoming and outgoing messages quickly and easily. It pulls email addresses from the headers and body (only if the user chooses to scan the body) of received messages, optionally verifies the DNS records of the addresses and presents a list for editing before adding to the address book. It can also add all the addresses found in the destination headers in outgoing messages with no user interaction whatsoever. Note that if the Address Take plugin is activated at the same time, it will clash with this one - it is superseded by this plugin, so it should be deactivated. The Address Add plugin is also superseded by this plugin. Usage ===== Users can add addresses found in any one message by clicking on a link added to the "Options" line below the message headers on the message view screen. Options for controlling how the message is scanned as well as control over the feature that adds addresses from outgoing messages automatically are all found under Options --> Display Preferences --> Address Book. License ======= This plugin is released under the GNU General Public License (see COPYING for details). Donations ========= If you or your company make regular use of this software, please consider supporting Open Source development by donating to the authors or inquire about hiring them to consult on other projects. Donation/ wish list links for the author(s) are as follows: Paul Lesniewski: https://sourceforge.net/donate/index.php?user_id=508228 Requirements ============ * SquirrelMail version 1.4.0 (although the feature that adds addresses from outgoing messages will not work unless using SquirrelMail 1.4.6 or above) * Compatibility plugin version 2.0.7 or above, unless using SquirrelMail version 1.4.10+ or 1.5.2+ Troubleshooting =============== * If addresses are not being added as expected, first verify the user preference settings found under Options --> Display Preferences --> Address Book. Next, check all address book backends to determine if the address(es) not being added are already in one of them. * If the "Attempt To Verify Addresses Being Added To Address Book" preference setting does not save correctly, verify that the Address Take plugin is not also activated. * If performance seems to drag when this plugin is active, turn off the "Attempt To Verify Addresses Being Added To Address Book" setting - if this helps, review your DNS server settings and performance settings. * If changes to the configuration file don't seem to be showing in the user interface, ensure that you are editing the correct configuration file. If one is located in the main SquirrelMail config directory (named "config_add_address.php"), it will always be used. Otherwise, "config.php" in the add_address plugin directory will be used.
