SquirrelMail

Introduction:
|
|
-------------
|
|
SquirrelMail is a standards-based webmail package written in PHP. 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 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 PHP). 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-users@lists.sourceforge.net
|
|
|
|
Contact:
|
|
--------
|
|
It is pretty easy to get in contact with the developers if you need help or
|
|
if you find bugs that need to be reported. The best way to contact us would
|
|
be through our mailing list which is actively monitored.
