Hi all, just a quick questions,
On webmail how often do new emails show up, as new emails dont seem to come through on webmail unless you refresh the page.

thanks all.

If there isn't one already you can add a meta refresh to the page to auto-refresh the Inbox periodically. I thought there was already one there though.

Put the following html inside the <head> tag of the page you want to auto-refresh.

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60">

This will refresh the page every 60 seconds. Simply change the content="60" part to a different number of seconds as required.

Thanks for your response, i was wanting to know what actual file the code needs to be in, went through the email server folders and found it, after a few tests i found where it needs to go.
If someone else wants to add this i will explain below.

1. go to your folder of the email server (install location chosen on installation).
2. go into webmailenhanced then original folder.
3. find _folder.html, right click and click open with and choose a text editor e.g. wordpad.
4. between the following below add <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60"> and change 60 to what ever you want, as stated above.

<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->

<title>####FOLDERDISPLAYNAME####</title>

5. save and all should work fine.
