1. What is eCorrei?
===================

eCorrei is a webmail system. This means it will allow you to access
your POP email account via the web. It can do (nearly) all the things
a normal email client can do: receiving mail, sending mail, replying,
forwarding, etc. eCorrei was designed to be fast, simple and platform
independent.


2. Features
===========

	*	Support for both POP3 and IMAP;

	* 	Receiving plain text messages, HTML messages, messages
		with attachments, HTML messages with attachments and
		HTML messages with inline images;

	*	Sending emails using a SMTP server or the PHP mail()
		function;

	*	Replying and forwarding of emails;

	*	Deleting emails, one or more at a time;

	*	Autorefresh of Inbox;

	*	Options for setting name and email address;

	*	Parsing of URL's in messages;

	*	Quickly send mails with smart maillinks in messages;

	*	Add signature to mails;
	
	*	Addressbook with groups to organize your addresses;

	*	Multiple language support (user can choose language).

"The future for eCorrei" section.

If you've got any ideas for features to be implemented in eCorrei, 
please mail me.


5. Translations
===============

eCorrei is currently available in 3 languages. If you would like to
translate eCorrei for me, send me a mail for instructions. Please contact
me before translating. Thanks in advance! 


6. Reporting bugs
=================

If you think you've found a bug, please mail me. Please tell me which browser/
PHP version/server you're using. Before mailing, make sure you've got the 
required PHP environment (check with check.php, see INSTALL) and your 
configuration is good. 
As I can't test eCorrei on all platforms/browsers/servers etc., I would like
you to mail me any testing results.
