SquirrelMail
SquirrelMail is a standards-based Webmail package. It includes built-in pure PHP support for the IMAP and SMTP protocols, and all pages are rendered in pure HTML 4.0 for maximum compatibility across browsers. It has very few requirements, and is very easy to configure and install. It has all the functionality you would want from an email client, including strong MIME support, address books, and folder manipulation.

Recent commentssquirrelmail-1.4.18-1 keeps moving all my unread messages to "Junk". I can move them back to Inbox, and my filters execute and put the filtered ones into the appropriate folders, then a little while later they all are back in "Junk". ?????
@sirmafia -- SquirrelMail has a plugin that can interface with most quota systems. However, keep in mind that it's your responsibility to build a quota system into your mail server first -- SquirrelMail is only a mail *client* and does *not* manage user mailboxe. It will interface with your system and report the quota information in the webmail interface if configured correctly. See: http://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=237
@rjrsousa -- SquirrelMail is an IMAP client, and IMAP servers can have all kinds of email account systems behind them. The beauty of SquirrelMail is that it works with ANY such system, but that's also why it can't create accounts out of the box. It'd have to know the gritty details of how the email accounts are implemented on your particular system. There are in fact some SquirrelMail plugins that allow you to create accounts on your server, but of course they only work on some systems. For more details, please see: http://squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin-9.html
