Move to bottom of file and add after the echo '</form' line;

echo '<p>Name is in the form ab15 or pzv15 etc.<br>';

echo 'For more help please read our detailed <a href="http://www.orpheusinternet.co.uk/support/webmail/">WebMail instructions</a>.';

4. Edit /usr/share/squirrelmail/src/login.php to amend SquirrelMail version ID and remove by the ...team.

5. Add mini_logo.gof to left side bar in actual webmail;

Edit /usr/share/squirrelmail/src/left_main.php and add

'<img src="../images/mini_logo.gif" alt="Orpheus WebMail" width=130 height=56 vspace=8>' .

just before 'Folders' line.

To add Orpheus theme

Edit /usr/share/squirrelmail/config/config.php and add the following lines after the various $theme definitions: $theme35

= SM_PATH . 'themes/orpheus.php'; $theme35'NAME' = 'Orpheus';

Then make the default theme = 35 (line above start of themes)

Then copy the following data as /themes/orpheus.php (N.B.Some characters aren't supported by this wiki, namely hash chars, so check source by editing page and looking)

Theme Name: 'Default Theme'
This is the default theme that comes standard with SquirrelMail.
Most of the colors were taken from mail.yahoo.com's theme on their
site.
To create a new theme, just copy this file, and edit the colors.
Be sure to rename the file and keep the original, just in case.
