can u set user links for webmail

[rhendrix9]

is it possible to make a link for webmail for a specific user.

like

www.domain.com/webmail/[email protected]

[Tony]

I do not believe that is possible.

The webmail page can accept anyones login though it just will not fill in the email by default.

Does

http://www.domain.com:2082/frontend/x3/mail/[email protected]&domain=domain.com

work?

[Tony]

Does

http://www.domain.com:2082/frontend/x3/mail/[email protected]&domain=domain.com

work?

Problem with that url is it would be going to the cPanel login which I do think would defeat the purpose of it. You'd think it be more something like:

http://www.domain.com:2095/frontend/x3/mail/[email protected]&domain=domain.com

[rbell]

Well, neither actually works.

[Cody R.]

Well, neither actually works.

After poking around cPanel forums for awhile I don't believe this is possible - as Tony said regardless of what variables you pop into the GET request they still have to login with their username / password, which would effectively negate any of the variables you set.

I'll look around a bit more to verify

I see this is an old thread, but just in case you guys or anyone else needs it, the above is possible with code like below

http://mydomain.com:2095/login/[email protected]&pass=PASSWORD&goto_uri=/3rdparty/roundcube/index.php

[/PHP]

The goto_uri variable doesn't have to be put in, I just prefer roundcube to the horde layout or squirrel layout. Enjoy!

Has anyone had any luck installing squirrelmail using Softaculous?

This would allow you to have web-mail login per domain.

I tried it but am having some difficulty directing the mail to hook up to the server.

Anyone else?

Can you better explain the issue? Like is it giving some sort of error or what exactly is happening that it does not work?

[Brian]

I just gave the Squirrel mail installer through Softaculous a shot on a test account of ours and it worked, so I don't think it's an issue with the system. Are there any specific errors or anything else you're seeing which might help us figure out what's wrong?

[jeffring]

Let me explain what I did:

I made a web mail account for a sub domain.

and then just followed the installer (choose domain, create directory, name, and left the imap and smtp as defaulted)

I could not connect to the server...

uninstalled, and tried it again with mail.subdomain-name.com in both imap and stmp. This seemed better but, still did not work.

What port #s and imap / smtp settings should I be using?

Jeff

[jeffring]

getting close

mail.subdomain-name.com in both imap and smtp

leave he port # (143 and 25)

and use the whole user name to log in (user+subdomain-name.com)

When I sent a test message I received this error

Message not sent. Server replied:

Connection timed out

110 Can't open SMTP stream.

[jeffring]

edit config.php

$useSendmail = false;

to:

$useSendmail = true;

Works fine now

[jeffring]

now...

If I can figure out a way to change logins

From: username+subdomain-name.com

To: username

Any suggestions?

Sorry about the delay in getting back here, been hectic around these parts lately (Pluto hasn't been on his best behavior). Anywho, did some research and maybe these plugins will help?
