Additional settings

- Display desktop notification... - Select this option, if you want to get a desktop notification about how many new mails were available. Please be aware, you need to allow your mail server site in your browser configuration to send notifications to your desktop.
- Close desktop notification - Specify how many seconds should be visible before it is automatically been closed.
- Play sound... - Select this option, if you want a sound notification. Please be aware, that only sound will be played one time only, even if there are new mails for multiple identities available (until next new-mail check cycle is started). If you hear no sound playing, please check your browser settings, if auto-play of sound files is enabled.
- Refresh... - Specify the new-mail check cycle in minutes.
If you receive new mails, the number of new mails will be shown in identity selection menue.
Configuration
There is a file config.inc.php
in the plugin directory available. This file can be used to specify some configuration settings.
If you want to change sound, icon or desktop icon, please checkout alert.mp3
, alert.ico
and alert.gif
in sub-directory assets
.
Locking configuration
You may use the dont_override
configuration option in your config/config.inc.php
file to lock some options from being overriden. This plugins supports the following options to be protected:
draft_mbox
,sent_mbox
,junk_mbox
,trash_mbox
- User cannot override preconfigured special folder name.check_all_folders
- User cannot override preconfigured flag to check all folders.newmail_notifier_basic
,newmail_notifier_desktop
,newmail_notifier_sound
- User cannot override preconfigured notification setting.
Performance
New mail checking is performed in background asynchronously. This has the effect that the new mail counter is not always updated immediately after login - it may take some time before this has been performed. It heavily depends on the number of identities you're using.
If you've select Check all folders, this has a huge impact on the time new-mail checking need to collect information. If you have hundreds of folders in your mail box, each of the boxes will be check for new mails.
Please don't forget to set Special Folders
in Settings
-> Preferences
. All folders specified there (and their sub-folders) will be excluded from new-mail checking.
Version compatibility
- Versions 1.x - for Roundcube v1.6. Requires PHP version >= 8.0.0.

If you've installed the ident_switch
plugin, there is a migration file available in SQL
subdirectory which copies the content of the old table to the new table and deletes the ident_switch
table. To make this happen, you should first install this plugin (during installation a table identity_switch
will automatically be created) and then you should appy SQL/migrate.sql
.

ther
are scrpst avaibale to ugrade your installation. These scriüps must called manually (look for 20241122.sql
). This script must be called after installation of identity_switch
plugin, but before removing identy_switch
plugin.
