Introduction:
-------------
SquirrelMail is a standards-based webmail package written in PHP4. It includes
built-in pure PHP support for the IMAP and SMTP protocols, and all pages render
in pure HTML 4.0 (with no Javascript) for maximum compatibility across
browsers. It has very few requirements and is very easy to configure and
install. SquirrelMail has a all the functionality you would want from an email
client, including strong MIME support, address books, and folder manipulation.

Why did you guys create SquirrelMail? The need arose in our organization for
the access of email and address books from anywhere in the world. Obviously
a web interface is ideal for this, given that the user has access to the
Internet. After reviewing several open source projects, we realized that
we were going to need to do some fairly major customizations to get things
to be a nice fit for our needs. So the decision was made to create our
own for some of these reasons, and for fun (we really like PHP4). We
decided to open source the project to contribute to the community that has
contributed so much to us. Since then, it has grown much bigger than we ever
imagined, and we have an awesome development team who are actively working
on the project.

We would love to hear from you! The nature of open source projects make it
hard to know who all is using your product. It is always nice when we get
emails from people just telling us that they're using SquirrelMail. If you
have a few minutes, please send us an email to let us know! You can send
it to our mailing list: squirrelmail-list@sourceforge.net

with the list of people already using SquirrelMail (free advertising).
