I've just installed Red hat 8.0 with all the stuff (LAMP) and now my employer wanted me to change the current Neomail with something better that support pop3. Anyone have a good idea on any good Webmail program that support pop3 and run perfectly on Red hat 8.0? (it would be much better if you can send me a link for article that stated about setting & customizing the particular Webmail program)

http://www.squirrelmail.org

thats a very good web mail progrma and its for free!

Horde?

http://www.horde.org/imp/

ill second and third squirrelmail, i use it at the moment, i can set you up an e-mail account on one of my servers for you to test it in a real environment if you want. PM Me and ill set it up for you.

yep - http://www.squirrelmail.org - exactly what you need.

I'll throw my opinion in. I personally think IMP is much, much better than SquirrelMail.

NEOMAIL is pretty good.

I currently use Squirrelmail. However, I have a problem where anytime I reply to a message, I get a timeout (even thought the message is sent). If I can get this fixed, I would say it is an excellent product. If I can't, I will try something else.

webmail sucks period... If you absolutely have to have it either SquirrelMail or IMP will suffice (the people I admin for seem to be content with SquirrelMail). Look around... dont take peoples opinions. If you went off strangers opinions you'd probably be running Win2k server and shelling out thousands of dollars in software licenses...

I used my own knowledge and im working on Windows 2000 server with Exchange Server 2000 and find it awesome, does everything i want.

(I also have linux servers just to keep you all happy)

What type of timeout?

Thanks.

I dunno if it supports pop3 but eubimiau is cool and i know that horde is pretty cool

I like Horde :D

Shikha

Yup.. Squirrelmail, all of my user like it ;) :D

mailreader is another good option.
Simple and quick.

In response to Choon's question...

This is a cut and paste of the timeout message I get everytime I reply to a message (this particular message was a total of 100 characters with no attachments)...

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/sites/home/web/mail/functions/imap_general.php on line 48

I realize I can increase my php timeout to something greater than 30 seconds. However, I do not think that will accomplish anything other than waiting longer to timeout. The strange thing is that the message is sent successfully, even though I receive the timeout message.

Because of this, I have not opened up Squirrelmail to my customers yet. Anyone else encountered and solved this problem?

have you at least tried to raise the php timeout rate in your php.ini file. It is at least worth a try. good luck

I have set my SquirrelMail for sending mails to sendmail instead of using the SMTP under Server Setting I guess. You can increase the php max_execution timeout limit from 30 to whatever in .htaccess file depending on your apache configuration and likewise you might want to consider about increasing the php memory limit also as default is 8M.

Just my thoughts.

Thanks.

Choon

I changed my config from SMTP to sendmail and everything works perfect. Thanks for the help Choon.
