vB WebMail v1.3

I am proud to announce my first hack here! vB WebMail

Inspired by Chad777's neomail signup

My version has cosmetic changes to the template files along with php rewritten to not need a db install to add the neomail table along with forcing the member to be registered with your forum and to use the forum username. along with a confirm to the new sign up that the account is created and sending them to the page to log in.

Support will only be provided in this thread, please do not PM me or e-mail me for support. You can find a working demo here http://www.thesportsforum.net/webmail.php

requirements vB 2.x
cPanel 4.x or higher (tested on cPanel 4, 5 and 6 using bluelagoon theme)
NeoMail (you can go to www.your-domain.com/webmail/ to see if your server has neomail).

things to do:
add-on to lesane's store to buy webmail access
add-on to lasane's store to increase mailbox size
write vB webmail for HordeMail

Sites using vB WebMail include:
(feel free to PM me to add your site)

You need to update your install.txt trying to view it as a txt looks bad, even worst as html. People are going to get confused.

ok...

when some1 is a guest, and they goto the setup page, they are logged in as unregistered and it lets them create a email account : unregistered@emailaddy.com

also, it doesnt verify the forum password for the user, so how does it know its a correct password for that account?

There is no way to check a vB password. You just have to hope the user puts the same. Either way, the password they enter there will be there e-mail password as it sends the vb username and what they put as the password there to cPanel to create a mail account.

Log into cPanel and make a account "unregistered" now if a guest clicks on it there is no way to create an account. Using the hidden value for username like I did only allows your forum members to register for e-mail using the name they registered with, so one you have a unregistered account created, no fake accounts can be made.

I have squirrelmail. Will this hack work with that?

I have never used squirrel mail.. I am writing a version to work with hordemail now. Do you have a dedicated server you could create a control panel and squirrel mail account on and I will try to write it.
