You are probably thinking about this:

http://webmail.mozdev.org/

But, you know, that extension is not really needed anymore in most
cases. Gmail has supported POP and IMAP for a long time. Although they
don't advertise it, both mail.com and yahoo now allow IMAP access for
free accounts (it used to be a premium-only option).

Parameters for mail.com:
username: [email protected]
IMAP server address: imap.mail.com
SMTP server address: smtp.mail.com; port: 587
SSL/TSL are available, too.

Parameters for Yahoo:
<http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?locale=en_US&page=content&y=PROD_MAIL_MOBILE&id=SLN3361&impressions=true>
Username is yahoo email address
IMAP server: imap.mail.yahoo.com  port 993  SSL/TSL  Normal Password
SMTP SERVER: smpt.mail.yahoo.com  port 465  SSL/TSL  Normal Password

Instructions for AOL:

Hotmail/Outlook.com does not seem to allow IMAP, though. Not
surprisingly, since Microsoft is all for pushing their own proprietary
Exchange/ActiveSync protocols... The page below claims that it's
possible to use POP on Hotmail, but I didn't test it -- and anyway,
Microsoft changes the rules all the time.
