Re: DBMail <-> Roundcube

I’m very interested in a PHP interface that directly connects to the database and performs the SQL directly. I am already using Roundcube Framework to access Dovecot mail using IMAP for my next project, but I would probably change to use DBMail if my PHP apps had a clean interface to access the database tables directly and not be restricted to the IMAP view of the database. I could especially use an easy interface for updating/replacing headers and MIME parts directly. My app will use the mailboxes as a type of user datastore in addition to being a tradition mail account for my users. The headers in the messages stored in a folder can hold the “meta data” attributes and an encrypted binary MIME part can be used to hold the “data”.

I don’t have the time in the next few months to contribute to this project, but I do look forward to seeing how it might progress in the meantime. I would especially like the PHP interface to be included in the DBMail distribution and maintained/developed like other parts of the software.

A Roundcube Framework extension is a perfect plugin for this effort since the Framework is already very mature in accessing/manipulating mail messages and further DBMail integration would be a very welcome development.
