Installing Sent Confirmation ============================ 1) Start with untaring the file into the plugins directory. Here is a example for the 1.0 version of the sent_confirmation plugin. $ cd plugins $ tar -zxvf sent_confirmation-1.0-1.2.tar.gz 2) Change into the sent_confirmation directory, copy config.php.sample to config.php and edit config.php, making adjustments as you deem necessary. $ cd sent_confirmation $ cp config.php.sample config.php $ vi config.php 3) Then go to your config directory and run conf.pl. Choose option 8 and move the plugin from the "Available Plugins" category to the "Installed Plugins" category. Save and exit. $ cd ../../config/ $ ./conf.pl 4) Also, please verify that you have the "compatibility" plugin installed. Upgrading Sent Confirmation =========================== 1) Start with untaring the file into the plugins directory. Here is a example for the 1.0 version of the sent_confirmation plugin. $ cd plugins $ tar -zxvf sent_confirmation-1.0-1.2.tar.gz 2) Change into the sent_confirmation directory, check your config.php file against the new version, to see if there are any new settings that you must add to your config.php file. $ diff -Nau config.php config.php.sample Or simply replace your config.php file with the provided sample and reconfigure the plugin from scratch (see step 2 under the installation procedure above). * As of version 1.6, there is an extra entry in the user preferences that might disable the confirmation message for users who had had it turned on under version 1.5. To avoid this happening, you can either set the default style in config.php to anything other than 'off', or you can make sure that all users view their preferences screen once after version 1.6 is installed, verify their new settings, and click "Submit". The best solution is to simply add the new preference entry to any preference files that need it: $ echo 'sent_conf_enable=1' | tee -a `grep -rEin 'sent_conf_style=[1234]' /path/to/squirrelmail/data/directory/ | sed 's/:.*//'`
