SqWebMail may be less elegant than SquirrelMail, but SqWebMail is far more efficient. It is written in C, and accesses Maildirs locally, not through an IMAP server. If Postfix does not support Maildirs, you couldn't use SqWebMail. I have written a short tutorial on how to set up SqWebMail here (it is draft quality now): http://tabor.taborandtashell.net/serversetup/sqwebmail.html The installation is pretty straight forward (it is in ports), except the Makefile, which is a little confusing at first. -- Tabor Kelly tkelly-freebsd-questions@taborandtashell.net http://tabor.taborandtashell.net
