    HTML/web based email client

    Hi all,

    Anyone know of a HTML/web based email client package I could install on a web/email server so I could use that instead of using a proper POP3 client?

    Prefereably free too

    If it's a standard web server, no... 'cuz you'd need some kind of CGI/PERL script to hit the POP3 port.

      It's my own server so I have complete control over any apps I want to install.

      Maybe even a free mail server software which has this functionality?

        I might have something for you. A roommate of mine wrote ENIP. It's has a java codebase, runs as an applet, and IBM really liked it:




        If it were me though, I'd just use PuTTY to ssh in to the box and run pine. Putty doesn't need to be installed, and is small and easily downloadable, so it runs most places.

              If your server supports PHP this is pretty cool

              Download UebiMiau - Powerful Mail Reader for free. UebiMiau is a simple, yet efficient mail reader (webmail) supporting both IMAP and POP3 without dependence of any PHP\'s extra modules or database.

                Found this : http://www.zaks.demon.co.uk/code/cpts/pop/index.html works OK, but a but dated. (Now working here - http://www.steve-cooper.co.uk/mail/default.asp )

                Should also have mentioned that the reason for doing this is that I haven't got port 110 open on my mail server (don't ask...).

                Gonna go try your one now Taz (assuming it's easy to get PHP running on a Win2k server)

                  I run NOCC. (on BSD, but works on Win32 too) http://nocc.sourceforge.net
                  Free. Fast. Customizable. No frames. No cookies.
                  Renders XHTML, works with text browsers. (<a href="http://www.siemund-world.de/">looks like this</a>)

                  <blockquote><em>I haven't got port 110 open on my mail server</em></blockquote>Okay, say you have port 1110 open instead. Just add:
                  <code>$servr="pop.steve-cooper.co.uk/pop3:1110";</code>
