I don't think you would call Squirrelmail a client. It's an email server with a web interface. My ISP uses it. Been around since Eqyptian times... It's OK I guess, but renders some HTML email badly, or at least in the versions I have used. It doesn't like Outlook HTML email at all from what I remember. -- zakAT(a)pooh.the.cat - Sergeant Tech-Com, DN38416. Assigned to protect you. You've been targeted for denigration!

I run it on my server, it allows nice secure access to my email via the web when I am away from my own machines, without allow any of the evil empires to see it. It works, sometimes it displays badly composed HTML mail a little strangely, but that may also be due to some of the settings I tend to run with. I had a look at a few others before deciding on it - the only one I really remember as worthwhile was the Horde Imp <http://www.horde.org/imp/> but implementing the Horde framework seemed like too much work for what I needed.

My isp does webmail so it was never going to be a big deal. I looked at SM and it looked pretty and has folders where my isp doesn't, but I could always configure that with IMAP. -- Jim S Tyneside UK www.jimscott.co.uk

Squirrelmail doesn't have folders - the underlying IMAP server has folders. Squirrelmail just talks to the IMAP server. Cheers, Gary B-)
