-Old versionn (0.7) has been updated from 0.6 by Philippe Mingo <mingo@rotedic.com>
- IMPORTANT!!! This is a "secured" version, it makes a little encryption
- of the pop3 passwords. In order to use this facility, systems that
- have been using older versions (0.6 and lessers) should reenter
- passwords using the modify button at the options page in order to
- encrypt the password. The Encrypt passwords checkbox is only informative,
- and it lets you know if passwords are secure or not.
+Some plugin settings can be adjusted in config/mail_fetch_config.php or
+plugins/mail_fetch/config.php files.

-Translations
-============
-Translation is made in the same manner than Squirrelmail's core does.
-You need to take <plugin_name>.po file, fill the template, store it
-in the appropriate locale folder under the plugin and compile the po
-file. Better than this fill the po file and send it back to the author.
-The translation will be included in the next release of the plugin.
+See plugins/mail_fetch/config_sample.php
Note for mod_gzip users
and then add it again.
