Dev. for v6.5.0 Started: More Installer Options!

 
From: "Justin J" <justin@PROTECTED>
Date: June 6th 2013

Hello everyone,

I've started working on v6 5 0 of Dada Mail, and currently focusing on additional, highly useful things you can configure via the Dada Mail installer, that are kind of a pain to configure manually, and really a pain to have to re-configure, after you've upgraded Here's a screenshot of where I'm at, now:

If you notice, there's

  • additional options for the Bounce Handler so you can set it up using a secure connection, as well as how many messages to check at once

  • Options for Bridge, so you can set the soft and max size limit, and how many message to check at once,

  • Options to set up a ton of options for Dada Mail Profiles, like the ability to enable/disable whole features

  • Options to set a global, user-facing template

I may do some work on easily setting some of the security-related configuration vars, and move onto to other topics to work on (cough Required Profile Fields cough)

As with all the other current vars/options you can play with, these options will be easily read by the installer in the future, so anything you set in the installer, can be read again and understood by the installer, if you decide to upgrade, or if you just want to run the installer, to change up the global config

Since some/most of these options have been in the app for literally years, they're pretty stable, yet some have some idiosyncrasies that make them kind of weird to work with, sometimes Hopefully, the new install features will help make them easier to use and gloss over the weird stuff
