We are using the HKSI Classic WebMail Templates
v1.54 (I think that's the version). Several months ago, we moved our IMail
installation to a new server. The old server was upgraded to the latest
version of IMail, 6.06 with whatever patches were out at that point, and the new
server had a fresh installation of it with the same patches. The old
server was WinNT4, the new is Win2K. The move was done according to the
procedure provided in IPSwitch's KnowledgeBase.
Since the move, a small (but vocal) number of users
are having trouble deleting, forwarding, and replying to messages in
WebMail. An "Action Failed" screen comes up, from WebMail on the server
(not locally from the user's browser). When doing deletes, they
sometimes can get it to work if they try again and again, but usually it just
won't work at all. Composing new messages seems to work OK, but replying,
and especially forwarding, does not.
When accessing the accounts of customers who are
having trouble from any of the computers at our office, I don't have any trouble
at all. My own accounts are working properly as well. I thought
perhaps the problem is related to older versions of IE, but I've used IE4, IE5,
IE5.5, and Netscape 4.7 with no trouble whatsoever, while these few customers
continue to have trouble.
For example, a customer brought his laptop in to
show me that he could not forward or delete messages. We logged off from
his browser, and logged in to his account from several different machines around
the office, and everything worked perfectly. Tried again with
his browser, and again those operations didn't work.
Any suggestions? I see that Classic
WebMail Templates v1.6 are now available. Are there fixes in the newer
version that would address these problems? I've suggested that these users
switch to Outlook Express and stop using WebMail exclusively, but many of them
refuse to do so. Some of them haven't even heard of Outlook Express (or
Netscape Messenger, or whatever), they only know WebMail.
