Package: squirrelmail
Version: 2:1.4.15-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
If a user of squirrelmail sends spam, for example, or, in general,
if the admin needs to find out who the sender of a particular e-mail
logged by the MTA is, then the current version provides insufficient
data (etch did better but was suboptimal as well). The "SquirrelMail
authenticated user" is included in the Received header. However, most
MTAs do not log the Received header. So a squirrelmail admin will
have no means to determine which of their users sent an e-mail that
is registered in the local exim, postfix, sendmail logs. Therefore,
I submit that it is essential that squirrelmail log the authenticated
user in the Message-ID as well since most MTAs do log the Message-ID.
Here is a patch to achieve the desired behavior:
