People,
As an experiment I build squirrelmail on my laptop which is
on my internal net. I chose sendmail; but the ./configure
section also required that I use IMAP. Everything went well
until I tried to login. No joy. I admit that I'm pretty
clueless re POP3 or IMAP. Can anybody help me?
If I install squirrelmail on my primary server would I be
rid of IMAP? Or is there a better mail program with a web
interface.
thanks for a flashlight:-)

PS: I have evolution working on another internal server;
if only it had vi for replies, Life would be perfect....

I recently went through setting up a FreeBSD 5.4 mail server using
postfix for smtp w/sasl (and maildrop as the lda), courier for secure
pop/imap, squirrelmail for webmail and dspam for spam filtering.
It took a few attempts to make dspam work properly, but I'm very
pleased with the setup.
In regards to you questions, you will have to install an imap server
to use squirrelmail. I prefer courier-imap because it's pretty easy
to setup and the courier-authlib port lets me setup md5, ssl, etc.
connections.
The only catch with courier-imap is that it will not read mail from
mbox mailboxes (/var/spool/mail). You have to be using Maildir
mailboxes, which I'm not sure sendmail will do natively. I know you
can use Sendmail -> Procmail -> Maildir though.
Figure out which approach works best for you, and I can probably help
you with the implementation.
