Hi guys, Made a re-release for 1.13 just now.... The details are in the CHANGELOG.... grab it if you had this issue with 1.13 from yesterday: Changes from version 1.13, original release: * Made a quick re-release of 1.13 to fix a problem some people were experiencing with cookies... Apparently different individuals got different variations of the problem, all causing the same result: neomail-prefs.pl couldn't see neomail.pl's cookie. Now, according to the CGI.pm docs, the cookie path should be set to '/' which would work, but Mark Thomas informed me that it was being set to /cgi-bin/ which, again, should work (and was in fact the case for me) but doesn't in some instances of rewritten URLs and the like. OTOH, thhart from the SourceForge bugtracker says his install is setting the cookie path to the entire path of the neomail.pl and causting the problem. In any case, the version posted now has the path explicitly set to what the docs say are the default to avoid this issue altogether. I'd increment the version number for this minor change but it's easier to re-release and have people with the problem re-download. Thanks to both of the guys mentioned above for their great bug reports, with detailed troubleshooting info. I had gotten a couple reports without such detailed info and since I hadn't heard much from most people assumed it was user error. Thanks guys! -- NeoMail - Webmail that doesn't suck... as much. http://neomail.sourceforge.net |
