Ah, I didn't spot that part of the original post.

I have a blanket ban on PHP for security reasons, so I never looked
closely at roundcube or squirrelmail.  I *did* find prayer.

It's written in C, speaks HTTP/HTTPS to the front end (so no need for
apache or fastcgi on the same host), and IMAP/IMAPS to the backend (so
you *will* need dovecot).  It's old-school enough that it works in
proper browsers (like w3m) as well as fancy-pants bloaty ones.

I can recommend it with the following caveats:

 - it has two themes.  You want the newer, non-default one.

 - it's an OK fallback MUA, but you don't want to use it every day.

 - for some bizarre reason when I put it behind an apache reverse proxy
   (to do the LDAP auth layer), clicking on an attachment doesn't work.
   apache returns a 404 without even asking prayer for the attachment.
   The URLs look the same, so I'm completely stuck on that one.
