Plugins
=======

To understand more about plugins, read doc/plugin.txt

For the impatient, here is an extremely brief overview of how to
install plugins.

  1.  Change to the plugins directory.

        $ cd plugins/

  2.  Unarchive the plugin.

        $ tar -zxvf /home/me/myplugin.tar.gz

  3.  Note the directory that the plugin was created into.  For this
      example, we will assume it was put in the directory: myplugin/.
  
  4.  Read the README, INSTALL or other documentation in your new plugin.  
      Follow any important configuration instructions inside (about half
      the time there are none, sometimes they are extensive).

        $ cd myplugin/
        $ more README

  5.  Go to the config directory and run conf.pl

        $ cd ../../config/
        $ ./conf.pl

  6.  Choose option 8 and proceed to add the new plugin following
      the instructions there.  Save and exit, and your plugin should
      be in place.

The following plugins are "core" plugins; that is, plugins shipped with
the SquirrelMail distribution.  Unless you are a developer and know what
you are doing, you should not replace these plugins with other versions.
