Web mail

[zetsway]

I need an alternative to squirrelmail. It's to hard to install. I've been trying for weeks and I can't get it to work. I know you don't really install squirrel mail but I need some help.

Having problems installing it on a CentOS ver5 box

I only tested Squirrelmail using IMAP. It didn't play well with either of my IMAP servers.

Are you looking for a mail server or just a web-mail interface?

I had no problems with SquirrelMail when I tried it a while back, but this was with Debian so everything was pretty much setup for me.

Heh...

I'm a SquirrelMail fanboi!

Been using SM since wayback, and I'm still (ahem) nuts about it...

I was never a fan of SquirrelMail, I always preferred the look of Horde IMP better.

IMP is a much superior and robust product than Squirrel Mail, but it's a bitch to install when I tried three years ago.

I finally was able to install both Squirrelmail and roundcube. I should post the instructions or something. It took me almost a week to figure this out. I'm so happy that I finally got it working

I'm using Sendmail, Dovecot, and SquirrelMail for the web interface. However, I do like roundcube much better.

Here's what I was trying to do.

First, I had to join my Linux box to my domain. Then when users log-in to SquirrelMail (with their NT credentials) it will build a mail folder for them.

Yesterday, I got part of it working. When I log in it worked fine but I tried another account and it gave me an IMAP error. Then I tried logging in as the test user via ssh to the linux box then I logged in SM and it worked. So I had to checked the permissions on the folder.

Everything works now. I'm fairly new to Linux and it was a pain getting winbind, webmin, LAMP working. But now everything works.

My next server I have to get up and running is a proxy server using squid. Again, I'm fairly new so this will be another week or two long project.

Yea, 'aptitude install imp4' is so difficult. =)

Heh! And, I'm not a whore day fan...

I hear cPanel dropped them because of insurmountable security problems.

SM by default is kludgy looking, but it looks okay after it's skinned!

Here's Before & After if you're interested...

All I use is IMAP - gave up on POP years ago...

Using IMAP on Gmail is problematic, but Google is figuring it out... sort of... kinda!

Smart men let other people do most of the work for them.

Hmmm...

I've been playing around with Telaen for the last 24 hours - not too shabby!

I guess it's a Uebimiau fork...

Real men install from binaries and then go have sex with their GFs/Wives while the source guy is head-butting his monitor.

I've worked with guys like that. Most of them are single, miserable, and wear WAY too much polyester...so this dream you're having of "sex with GFs/Wives" isn't fooling anyone.
