Hi

Our mail server is in another part of the world & we are planning for webmail pro to have as a webmail client interface using the IMAP protocol.

We have downloaded the trial version (7.1.1.1) of it & evaluating. In this we have a few queries to be clarified.....
1. In the documents & the forums we have gone through, we came to understand that the syncronization is "Direct Mode" & cannot be modified. As mentioned since our email server is in another part of the world, this mode results in an obvious slow searching & fetching mails.
Question is -
a. Is there any way to choose to "Header Only" Mode so that the searching could be improved.
b. Is there any thing like indexing to improve the searching.
c. Ways to improve the user experience in terms of speed.

2. Also we require a way so that the users could change passwords & the same gets reflected in the mail server.

Thanks in advance for the clarification

Regards
Viswa-SBA

That will not be possible without substantial code modification. And frankly, I'm not sure I understand how exactly that would impact search which isn't done on WebMail end, IMAP server is doing the search. Thus:

- this is the part which needs to be done on mailserver end.

WebMail Pro is heavily optimized for performance already, so make sure other parts of your email environment do not become a bottleneck here. If connectivity is a problem in the situation you described, I don't think something can be improved from WebMail Pro end here.

There is no standard approach for that one in emailing world, every system has its own way for changing password. As far as we can tell, one of the most typical ways to provide password change feature is implemented via POPPASSD - and we have a plugin for that. If your system supports changing password in some other way, you can modify the plugin to make it work with your system.
