Thanks,

I now at least get some feedback on the screen. But although all login
information is correct, I don't get passed the login screen. I've imported
your suggestions into another file http://info.czar.be/openwebmail2.php
where you also can see the headers. I know that the webmail application
doesn't use any cookies.

Any other idea of what might cause the problem?

Yours,
Stijn DM
