Webmail for my shared Linux/Apache webserver


Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

Because of changed circumstances I can no longer live with pop3 only mail and need a good, open source webmail for my shared hosting Linux webserver.

 

First thing's first: I loathe Squirrel mail, It's ugly, uses frames and I don't enjoy the way it does things.

 

I found Illoha Mail ( http://blog.ilohamail.org/ ), and it seems like what I need, but maybe you can advise something other or better. The last Illoha update has been in 2004 and it seems a long time ago. Can you give any feedback about it?

 

I'd appreciate any help in this. Thanks!

p.s. I haven't been posting much here lately, because my Fedora box just runs great and everything works.

But I'll check out the new Mandriva when it comes out.

 

p.p.s. A week or so ago I went to a tech shop to buy a mobile phone for myself and in the shop there were pc's with Mandriva Linux 2006 preinstalled! I felt all warm and fuzzy inside. :D

Check this out if your running Fedora Core 5, this setup uses Dovecot which is in the repository.

 

http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_fedora_core_5

 

This is a detailed description how to set up a Fedora Core 5 based server that offers all services needed by ISPs and hosters (web server (SSL-capable), mail server (with SMTP-AUTH and TLS!), DNS server, FTP server, MySQL server, POP3/IMAP, Quota, Firewall, etc.). This tutorial is written for the 64-bit version of Fedora Core 5, but should apply to the 32-bit version with very little modifications as well.

 

I will use the following software:

 

* Web Server: Apache 2.0.x

* Database Server: MySQL 5.0

* Mail Server: Postfix (easier to configure than sendmail; has a shorter history of security holes than sendmail)

* DNS Server: BIND9 (chrooted!)

* FTP Server: proftpd

* POP3/IMAP server: dovecot

* Webalizer for web site statistics
