Nasty Squirrelmail problem. User pref files are overwritten !! People are receiving others mails
Hi, I'm facing a very nasty problem lately. Some of my users started reporting that they were receiving mails sent by other people. Here's the scenario user A send and email to user B and user C gets the reply. After investigating I found out that the problem is that user.pref files are getting overwritten on one others. So, the reply-to address changes. I can overcome reply address problems but all the contents of pref files are overwritten. Anybody can help me resolve this nasty problem?? My gut feeling is that userid stored in session or in cookie makes this happen. You can imagine how serious the problem is. People are getting other people's mails because of reply-to address in the the overwritten pref file. One final note, this happened after upgrading to PHP 4.0.4 Thanks in advance. Oyku Here are the details. On the same computer!! Login as user A Logoff Login as user B Logoff B.pref overwritten by A.pref I can't reproduce this problem everytime.

Very strange. I used SM with SuSE 7.3 and never saw this problem, though I had more recent versions of PhP and Apache. You best bet is to subscribe to squirrelmail-users and post this problem there. Josh

I think I wont be able to sleep without solving this somehow. What did you do to workaround? Did you use some other pref backend? Regards, Oyku
