Re: Sessions and linking

Try using theinbox.php?<?=SID?> Adding <?=SID?> to all your URLs will maintain session data if cookies are turned off. The session ID (a random 32 character string) is available in $PHPSESSID, so if you really wanted to you could do: theinbox.php?PHPSESSID=$PHPSESSID but <?=SID?> is easier.
