Anyone know of any pop mail interface that I can host on a separate server than an actual email server, that runs on Unix, php or perl/cgi? I installed endymion (http://www.endymion.com) on one of my servers and it works great. However I am not sure if that company still exists because their credit card page doesn't work anymore and I receive no responses back from their sales or technical support department. I am willing to spend a couple of hundred bucks if needed.

Thanks.

Our entire sales force + a few others uses SquirrelMail every day. Its fast, lean, and expandable. Lots of great features with more coming.

Of course, I'm probably biased, since I'm also a SQM developer, but you know. ;)

I thought that you had to be running Squirrel Mail as your mail server in order to use its' interface. Can I use the Squirrel Mail interface for a mail server running on a separate machine?

SquirrelMail is a PHP front-end for your IMAP server, it is not the server itself. It sits on any PHP-enabled web server and talks to your IMAP server, regardless of where the IMAP server is.

I have used both from a client side perspective and i like the simplicity of squirrelmail more than i do horde. I have never administered either system before, but i believe the questions regarding their setup have been answered in previous posts :)

Hmm doesn't look like Squirrel Mail support Pop. Only IMAP :( Oh well back to the drawring board.
