Despite the lack of universal support, a most-common denominator approach could make many happy, instead of having nothing at all. I can see why that approach doesn't necessarily work for you.
I'm going to look into a separate digest notification app first though. I think that my users will value my services more by knowing the extent to which we are blocking spam, and the few that have concerns will have the ability to never miss a valid message. The Devil's in the details though.

Using IMail's Web server would seem like the most global choice, however I have not come across information about it supporting anything besides their own special tags and it doesn't seem like a friendly environment to work in. Does anyone know if this supports some sort of CGI besides the built in tags?
No -- and that's exactly why we haven't come up with anything yet. As soon as Ipswitch adds the 30-or-so lines of code to allow third parties access to web messaging, it will become easy to write a web interface. Until then, there are a lot of obstacles: Requiring IIS or developing a custom webserver, authentication, dealing with adding ports to firewalls, etc.
John, I see that you have done some of this stuff, as well as many others. I'm wondering why with all the interest, it hasn't yet been done? Also, if Scott is going to do this himself, I'm wondering if there is any estimate as to when it might become available.
It is unlikely that Computerized Horizons will come out with a web interface in the near future (unless Ipswitch adds third party access to web messaging, but that is unlikely).
