SOGo is a universal web interface, IMHO. All it requires is AUTHentication
so as to display emails and also to be able to send emails.
If for once you'd stop focusing on iRedmail and just start with looking at
what SOGo is meant to do, you'd get the concept clearly.
That information is here:
https://www.sogo.nu/files/docs/SOGoInstallationGuide.html
As it is, you can already install SOGo only on a VM and test it with your
existing server - testing only with your account until you're satisfied.
Your existing server just needs to be configured to relay when ASMTP
succeeds. Simple. Other than that, it needs to allow IMAP4 access from
remote.
That's as easy as opening port 143 on the firewall for a particular IP
address.
Iredmail depends on SOGo for the webUI/Groupware. SOGo does not need
iRedmail.

In an Internet failure case, the #1 suspect is a constant: DNS.
