[SM-USERS] Squirrelmail connection times out (???)

[Rob Tanner]

Hi,

I have noticed thatwhen I've sat on the addressbook page for 20 minutes or a half hour with no activity (haven't actually timed it), and then I click on another link, I get forwarded to an error page with the error "You must be logged in to access this page" and a link to the login page.

There appears to be no problem with cookies at the browser end that would account for it, and it doesn't appear to be browser vendor or platform specific (Netscape 7 on Linux and IE of MacOSX both appear to exhibit the same behavior).  I'm assuming, therefore, that the session is simply being closed at the server end.

Any ideas as to what is going on?  I didn't find any setting in the config file that might be the culprit.  So, is this an embedded timeout that I might want to fuss with in the source code directly, or is it a bug?

Thanks,
Rob
