Hi Chuck,
There is a simple configuration option to allow user IP addresses to
change.
Thank you for your answer. That would help. My webadmin at the 
universtiy said, that the registered name does not change - only the 
machine, which connects between intranet and internet. And HORDE seems 
not to watch the registered name of the domain, but it watches the 
machine, which interacts with the net. So this machine changes very 
often in the session.
If your provider is incapable of changing it, find a new
provider.
He wants to change the option - but he does not find. Can you - easily 
tell him, where the option can be changed? In which submenu can this 
parameter be changed? I think, he uses the german translation - so the 
full english name of the menu/submenu/sub-sub-menu/option will help 
him to find it in the german translation.



I don´t want to find another provider, because i am not so familiar 
with the net and the technic - so every change of a whole domain to 
another provider is a very tricky thing for me.



Chuck - thanks in advance for all!

To whom it may concern,



i use horde at www.bjoern-mehlhorn.de (a provider installed it for me 
- i am not the administrator there, but only a end-user).



When i use it with Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer 6.0 in the 
normal internet, i have no problems.



But when i use it from my university, the Webmail-Interface (Horde) 
everytime i do anything (write a mail, read mail etc.): "Ihre 
Internetadresse hat sich geändert, seit Sie die Webmail-Sitzung 
begonnen haben. Zum Schutz Ihrer Sicherheit müssen Sie sich neu 
anmelden"



But this - changing the internet-adress, seems to be normal for a 
university-account? So i cant ceck my mails with horde.



What can i do?



The acception of cookies is not so strict - i cant decide very much. 
But many cookies are accepted (first party).



Every normal Web-Interface works fine (www.gmx.net, www.web.net
www.ebay.com and so on) - noone looses the connection between me and 
the Webinterface.



My Internet-provider (university) will not change anything - because 
everything works fine (except horde).



What can my E-Mail-provider (Horde-administrator) change, so that 
horde is not so sensitive about changing the Login-Adress (e.g. 
checking not only a single Adress, but a group of allowed 
university-adresses or so on).

Is there a log-file, which identifys several different acesses to 
horde, so that my E-Mail-provider (Horde-administrator) can read the 
tried logins and see the different/changing internetadresses.



Thanks in advance



Bjoern
