I cant seem to create any pop accounts with WebmailFX 1.0RC2b....after setting keying in the required fields ...when I click "add" it brought me to the settings page again...

Under General Permissions I have selected all check boxes to be active...

This same thing happened when I want to create a admin account in the admin section....can seem to save my settings

I tried the same settings in another XOOPS site...an it works...What seems to be the problem? is it my host issue?

As stated in README file, the module requires that "register_globals" in PHP are "On" to work properly.
Most of the times, a wrong setting (i.e. register_globals = Off) is respondible of the behaviour reported.
To check this out:
1.create an empty php file, i.e. phpinfo.php and put into it the string:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
2.Save the file and upload it on your root directory;
3.Access it through:
http://www.yoursite.com/phpinfo.php
4.A very long file will show you your settings. Locate the key we're looking for and see how the setting is.

In the hypothesys of register_globals = Off, you should do the following:

HOME SERVER
1.Go to your Apache directory and locate your php.ini;
2.Locate the string register_globals = Off and change it to register_globals = On;
3.Save the file;
4.Restart the server.

WEB SPACE ON A SHARED SERVER
Ask your provider whether they could change that.

Hope this helps.

That was supposed to be fixed in this version. But it seems it is still giving troubles. It happens when running th module on a MS Windows host.
As far as there are no development activities planned before mid april, the only way to have that fixed is somebody submitting a patch in the next few days.
To be honest I do not have any hope regarding that: we received two patches, I believe, in more than six months...
I have no sourcecode here to look at, but if I remember right, the problem lies in /class/email_message.php. If you're able to fix yourself, just submit the patch and we'll merge it.
