Hi everyone, I am reviewing webmail software to be be installed in a high
use production environment. The mail server is qmail with vpopmail.
I am looking for:
* stability
* security
* speed
* ability to change the look and feel
* overall features
The ones I have reviewed so far are horde/imp, squirrelmail, and DWmail.
My old virtual system was running Squirrelmail, but on the new system
we're running both Squirrel and Horde/IMP. Most customers seem to like the
IMP interface better and its HTML mail support seems to work unlike SM. We
will likely drop SM at some point in the future.
If you do install both even if just for testing you should modify the
preferences so that IMP and SM use the same folders. By default IMP uses
sent-mail, drafts, and a trash folder feature is not on. I changed that to
Sent, Drafts, and turned on Trash so that users switching between
Thunderbird, SM, and IMP had the same folder setup. You'll also need to
turn on HTML mail display in one of the conf files as well in IMP.
I do find the folder setup in IMP a little funky to browse through, but
that's really my only major complaint so far.

which version of Horde/Imp have you running? I have Imp 4.0.3 running and
i'm feeling a big performance hit with this version over the old 3.x ones.
Is there a big speed difference between SM and Horde/Imp?
