I know that through IMAP, I should be able to access mail through clients such as Pine, Netscape, Eudora, etc. I would also like to add a webmail front-end so that users can also access their mail this way. I've seen several WebMail packages named here but a number of them store messages in something like MySQL or an internal database. The reason for this is that we sometimes need to travel around from location to location, sometimes having our computers sometimes not. We usually are in a location that may have an ssh client, so we could connect to our machines and use pine (no telnet allowed), but that we know will always have a web browser. We'd like the web client to access the existing mailboxes and when done, leave them in such a way that they can still be accessed through other IMAP capable clients. As I said, I've found some webmail packages mentioned in the archives but some use a proprietary mailbox format. I'm currently downloading IMP, NWEbMail, and AtDot. Any information would be appreciated. Oscar To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
