Safe mode, required OFF - Atmail requires safe-mode off by default

open_basedir, recommended NO RESTRICTION, currently an open_basedir restriction is in place. This is often implemented by hosting providers for shared hosting environments to restrict PHP access to the current vhost's directory - This may result in some slightly reduced functionality due to some system binaries not being available to Atmail.
