what is mailchekker?
imagine: you got 4 mailaccounts, but since you now go studying/ have an assistence where you have access to the net but must work on different machines. you wouldn't like to configure your accounts everytime. this is why i made mailchekker.
mailchekker is a serverside pop3 mailclient that is capable of handling multiple users, multiple accounts per user, attachements, contacts and maybeotherstuff. it runs on a webserver with php4 interpreter. you need a mysql database to store the messages.
requirements
ok you need a
  • webserver, most suitable this is an apache... you need to have
  • mod_rewrite for session-id handling,
  • php4 for the scripts of course:)
  • a mysql account
  • a lotta patience...
    installation
    ..this is a little itchy at this time...
  • download the source file
  • unpack:
    mabuse> tar xfz mailchekker-0.6.tgz
  • the htdocs stuff must go into a directory that is accessible thru the web cd htdocs the include dir should not be accessible like that.
  • chekk and set the php4 options (per httpd.conf/.htaccess OR php.ini) 
    php_value include_path ".:/path/to/your/include/dir/"
php_flag track_vars On
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
php_value session.name MC
php_value session.use_cookies Off
  • set the rewrite rules (per httpd.conf/.htaccess) 
    RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9]{32})/(.*) $2?MC=$1 [QSA]
  • create a new mysql db
  • create the tables, theres a file 
    mc_tables.sql
    that contains the sql statements
  • change local.inc.php4. feed it with your db access data
  • now goto 
    http://www.yourserver.big/your/installation/newaccount.php4
    make a new account, login and be happy!
    to do
    many things: better (yes even better) usability, codecleanup (much german crap in it), quoting messages, quota for mailboxes, skins....
    credits
    i took so many stuff from the opensource people, as the phplib project (db abstraction class, sessionmanagement...), m. lemos (pop3class), mr cruelyfish (..dammed to decode that f***n mime)
