configure Veteran Posted January 20, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 20, 2004 I was wondering if there is anyway to make Squirrelmail use the user's real name record in their unix account as the display name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BudMan MVC Posted January 21, 2004 MVC Share Posted January 21, 2004 I would think this plugin can do what you want; Plugins - Retrieve User Data This plugin retrieves the full name and the email address of a SquirrelMail user from an external source (currently LDAP, Microsoft AD, MySQL, /etc/passwd, PostgreSQL, plain text file, DB-style databases, VPoPMail) and writes them to the user's preferences file. Your users don't have to enter their name and email address before they write their first email. If you want to prevent or reduce misuse of your mail system, you can also forbid them to change their name and email address (From: line in email headers). You can also retrieve the users' data on every login to be up to date with your external source. If you don't want to use one of the supported data sources, you can write an extension to access other types of data sources. http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
