The obvious: Getting mailbox content, reading mails from every POP3 mailbox and sending mails through any SMTP server (configurable in the user options)
written from scratch, spezificially to be used with vBulletin 3.5.x - not a port of something
fully phrased and templated down to the last bit
Full multipart support for downloading (and sending) attachments
When reading mail the mail text is parsed for BB-Codes, so you get the graphical smillies from the forum, text formatting and URLs automatically become clickable links
When replying to, or forwarding, mail the text of the original mail is quoted, propper quotemarks are added and a quote-header is added (customizable via template)
various options for admin and users to customize the webmail client
Does NOT require any special modules to be compiled into your PHP installation (like the IMAP libraries)
(for techies: this uses basic socket connections instead of special PHP function calls)
Admin can override certain aspects of the user config (forcing to use a given mailserver, force using forum email address and such)
Write your mails using vB's WYSIWYG editor
buildin (yet simple) addressbook for your E-Mail contacts
Read/Unread markings - unread mails are highlighted, options for "mark selected read", "mark all read" and "mark selected unread"
custom hooks to make it easy to develop addons for it
automatically adds links to the webmailer in "Quick Links" menu, navbar and UserCP. Usualy no template edits needed when using default ones (can be disabled for each link in admin options)
Planned features:
Support for multiple config sets per user
(and so multiple mailbox accounts that can be querried)
Sort mails into folders
User configurable filters (for automatically sorting mails into folders)
Preview of mailtext in inbox view (bellow subject)
Forward mails as PM / Forward PMs as mail
Reply to threads and PMs by mail
Give/Provide your members an own eMail adress and inbox on your forums!
Members can recieve and send mails as "username@forumdomain.tld" without the need for an own POP3 account anywhere
Admin only needs ONE "real" POP3 box as "catch all".

ChangeLog
===========
1.00 - first final release
Fixed some minor bugs
Login details are no longer stored as plain text in the database (*see note bellow!)
Added option to save login details in a cookie on the users local computer instead of storing them in the forum's database
* Note on storing the login details in the database:
The login details are only base64 encoded when stored in the database.
A more secure encryption would make no sense anyway, the login details must be decrypted to be passed to the POP3/SMTP server - one well placed line of additional code in the POP3 or SMTP class could save the decrypted info anywhere the admin likes.
This "encoding" is only meant to prevent login details to be read (in plaintext) when doing maintanance to the database and stepping over it.
For fully securing the login details the "Save in cookie" option has been added.
Known Issues:
On some installations mass deletion of mails (via "Delete Selected" from the inbox view) does not delete all mails
Sometimes you get "-4 mails in inbox" - reloading the page then shows the correct inbox again
Besides of those two issues, that do not really break the function of the webmailer, it seemed to run pretty stable so far - that's why I decided to release 1.00 without having them resolved.

Again. Great script. I am still having an issue with deleting all the posts an once. Let's say I have 25 unread messages. I click on the (de)select all and it checks them all off. I click on the delete button and only about 15 of the 25 get deleted. If I select the remainder and click on delete it will not remove them. I have to go in and up each email and then click on the delete link for that email.
Edit: I made a few cosmetic changes to the template besides...repositioned the buttons and added the paperclip image for attachments instead of the one you used....lemmie know if your interested in the alternative
