It's not recommended to replace an existing installation +of Roundcube with this version. Also using a separate database for this +installation is highly recommended. + + +INTRODUCTION +------------ +Roundcube Webmail is a browser-based multilingual IMAP client with an +application-like user interface. It provides full functionality you expect +from an email client, including MIME support, address book, folder management, +message searching and spell checking. Roundcube Webmail is written in PHP and +requires the MySQL, PostgreSQL or SQLite database. With its plugin API it is +easily extendable and the user interface is fully customizable using skins +which are pure XHTML and CSS 2. + +The code is mainly written in PHP and is designed to run on a webserver. +It includes other open-source classes/libraries from [PEAR][pear], +an IMAP library derived from [IlohaMail][iloha] the [TinyMCE][tinymce] rich +text editor, [Googiespell][googiespell] library for spell checking or +the [WASHTML][washtml] sanitizer by Frederic Motte. + +The current default skin uses icons designed by Stephen Horlander and [Kevin +Gerich][kmgerich] for Mozilla.org. + + +INSTALLATION +------------ +For detailed instructions on how to install Roundcube webmail on your server, +please refer to the INSTALL document in the same directory as this document. + +If you're updating an older version of Roundcube please follow the steps +described in the UPGRADING file. + + +LICENSE +------- +This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify +it under the terms of the GNU General Public License (**with exceptions +for skins & plugins**) as published by the Free Software Foundation, +either version 3 of the License, or (at your option) any later version. + +This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, +but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of +MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
