Is there a clear choice here? Currently, Squirrelmail the service of choice for my users while UebiMiau appears to be an albatross. Any reason at all to keep it?

Can I remove UebiMiau or prevent it from booting? It's not being used and I'd rather remove it entirely to close any holes it may have while also freeing some cycles or ram. Thanks!!!
 
I believe you can remove it, but this would also entail editing the skin(s). This means you will need to edit your skin each time DA updates it' skin. I did this recently for we use Horde, and DA overwrote this. You can export your skin of choice and use that as the default, but you will need to make the necessary changes to your skin when DA has skin updates.

I really wish we could turn on and off any link in the cp through Admin/Reseller. It would also be nice to be able to add links to any section of the cp the same way. Kind of like how you can turn Spam Assasin On and Off.
 
I agree with rldev. I ran into the same problem trying to add horde to the system. I had to change the default links in the skins, which would be changed back if any skins were upgraded. Another way would be to change the symlinks. Like if you didn't want to edit the skins, you could simply move /var/www/html/webmail to /var/www/html/webmail_old and then create a symlink: /var/www/html/squirrelmail to /var/www/html/webmail. This would cause both www.domain.com/squirrelmail and www.domain.com/webmail to point to squirrelmail. However, you would still have "Webmail: UebiMiau" listed in the skin. So you would either A) leave it and they would be auto-directed to squirrel (due to the symlink) or B) edit the skin to change wording (but why not just remove it completely if you were editing.. ;) )
