Hi friends here,
I'm quite new and have a question.

Now I have a vps with DirectAdmin as control panel.
I wanna if it's possible to install a powerful & beautiful (nice interface) webmail software?
Before I used iPowerWeb's webmail, which has a quite beautiful interface.

Any recommendation?
Thank you so much in advance!!!

Try UebiMiau (http://uebimiau.sourceforge.net). It's open source (PHP) and the interface is just good.

It's been asked a thousand times here in WHT. :) Searching the recent threads would give you a handful of possibilities to go with, both paid and GPLed. My recommendation is SquirrelMail.

I'm sure many of the questions you asked when you were new were also asked 1,000 times. :)

If he had found an answer to his question I'm sure he wouldn't be asking it. :(

Now here you'll get a wide array of answers.

My favourite free web mail system would have to be Horde/IMP. It is not the best looking just from install, however it is very advanced and very robust. Not to mention it is not that hard to style it and make it look great. However some believe that Horde/IMP is great looking as it is. Either way though, it cannot be beat for its amount of features and robustness IMO.

Coming in close at second place I think is Squirrel Mail. I believe Horde/IMP is #1, however if there was not Horde/IMP, I would not mind using Squirrel Mail - It too is a great system, and does not look that bad from start. Feature wise I do not believe it is ad advanced as Horde/IMP, however you cannot go wrong with it.

Hope this helps. :)

Ooh, I have just re-read your post. I at first thought you only wanted free products, while in actual fact you don't mind whether it is commercial or not.

Well, my free recommendations are above.

If you want to pay, then @Mail and HiveMail are both great products and should be look at.

Hivemail
SocketMail

They are both competitors and each have their own pro's and con's. Do a search for both on WHT and you will see what I mean.

I have used UebiMiau for about a year until I recently switched to the web mail feature on MailEnable Pro. My clients feel that MailEnable Pro's web mail is more easy to use.
