Dovecot is an IMP server, it doesn't have a GUI. What you are thinking of
is a webmail *client*. That's just another client, like Thunderbird or
mutt, as far as Dovecot is concerned. There are a few webmail clients
available, I use Roundcube.
It all depends on what you want. I've not used Roundcube, although I
hear it's good. I've used SquirrelMail, Horde, and SOGo. I personally
prefer SOGo, but it's complicated to setup. SquirrelMail is easy, but
lacks a lot of features that SOGo had. Horde is kind of in the middle.
The only thing I'd watch out for is that if you use SOGo, the gentoo
packages are WAY out of date. The most recent SOGo package in portage is
4.3.2, but you can get the sources for 5.1.0 from the SOGO.NU website.
