Re: Squirell for Android

I will just repeat and extend the idea about the plugin variant.

Currently, when we access the squirrel client through a smartphone browser,
it requires constant zooming and panning. We would like to make a plugin
which would load a modified template for squirrel if it is accessed from a
mobile device. 

It should preserve all the functionality of the current squirrel interface,
just make it more user friendly when accessed through a smartphone browser.

Why are we thinking of writing it as a plugin?
So it can easily be installed on current servers running squirrel and just
extend it so that it has a more user friendly interface when accessed by a
smartphone.



Plugins have controls sufficient to minimize interface options.

I'm not sure what you mean by this, however, we would like to have all the
functionalities that are available on the current squirrel interface.    


If you are looking for more heavy customizations, you can as well go with
own webmail client or webmail add-on which uses only SquirrelMail IMAP API.
<qoute>
Could you please define a difference between a squirrel add-on and plugin?


A little background information about us. We are currently 2 grad students
of computer science which are choosing a college project for a
Human-Computer Interaction class. We are willing to spend 3h weekly on a
this project till the end of the year if we get enough support from the
squirrel.
By support we mean reviews, and technical help.

At the end, we would give the plugin as Open source.
