Fri, 10 Apr 2026 04:38:52 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/7889 Enhance vinfo hook The attached patch (against FRAMEWORK_3 tag) adds two (hopefully) useful changes to the vinfo hook: #1 adds the possibility to modify the selected mailserver during login. This allows us to select the correct mailserver by parsing the login username. I have also created a simple example in hooks.php.dist. #2 passes the value of $_SESSION['imp']['user'] as an array item. So you don't have to get the value from the session. This is just a api correction for the $value-param needed for #1. If necessary I can create a patch for HEAD aswell.

If that's not currently possible - it might not be, though it might just require mucking with $_SESSION data directly - then let's work towards making it possible. I think the pre/post authenticate hooks are a much cleaner way to do this sort of thing than the vinfo hook, which I'd like to phase out. Wed, 28 Jan 2009 02:59:37 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/7889#t52037 As far as I remember I tried to use pre/post_auth in the first place but it would've required more work (e.g. a lot of session variables will be set before authenticate()-call). Also there's currently no way to get the value of the selected server in any session variable before login. Wed, 28 Jan 2009 09:52:19 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/7889#t52042 If you're parsing the server from the username anyway, why do you need the selected server? And, like I said, I'd really prefer to make it easier to do things with the pre- and post-auth hooks instead of extending the vinfo hook, even if it would be harder *now*.

Webspace customers are uniquely identifiable while dedicated customers are not. Thus they have to select their own server in the server list. Webspace customers just use a dummy entry "autodetection" which triggers the hook. I'm fully with you in expanding the pre-/post-hooks. I just wanted to point out why I used the vhook for now.
