- Installing the postfixadmin Plugin
- ======================================
-
- Requirements:
- =============
-
- - PHP 5.[234].* with php5-xmlrpc installed (if available; it should be available by default anyway)
- - http access to a local/remote postfixadmin interface
- - Zend Framework (1.12.x) - needs adding to the include path within common.php,
- or installing in a system include path directory (e.g. /usr/share/php)
- (e.g. from within the directory containing this file ...
- wget https://packages.zendframework.com/releases/ZendFramework-1.12.3/ZendFramework-1.12.3-minimal.tar.gz
- tar -zxf ZendFramework-1.12.3-minimal.tar.gz
- mv ZendFramework-1.12.3-minimal/library/Zend . )
- NOTE: This plugin is _not compatible_ with Zend Framework version 2.x.
-
- Installation :
- ==============
-
- - Copy this code into the Squirrelmail plugins directory - your life will be easiest if it's in a directory called 'postfixadmin'
- - Install Zend Framework (see above under Requirements for example)
- - Edit config.php and specify the remote URL for the Postfixadmin XmlRpc service.
- - Edit common.php and (if you need to) change the include path(s) so they are correct.
- - Edit the remote Postfixadmin's XmlRpc service config file and ensure 'xmlrpc_enabled' is set to boolean true.
- - Enable the plugin through 'squirrelmail-configure' or 'config/conf.pl'.
- Choose option 8 and move the plugin from the "Available Plugins"
- category to the "Installed Plugins" category. Save and exit.
-
- Security :
- ==========
-
- - The XmlRpc client needs to get the user's mailbox password before it will be able to connect to the
- XmlRpc server (postfixadmin). The plugin prompts the user for their mailbox password, and caches it in their session
- ($_SESSION['password']). This password is then sent once on every page load to the remote XmlRpc server.
-
- - You should consider doing any of the following :
- - Using https if the server and client are on seperate servers. This will probably require a signed certificate etc, and may require changes to the Zend_XmlRpc_Client's HttpClient.
- - Using something like stunnel to encrypt traffic between server(s).
