LCDR,
I've been running NMCI Webmail for over a year using Mozilla. I had to
install the Activcard Gold software to work with the CAC reader (after
I install Tiger I'll try the built-in CAC card support). Once you've
got the CAC card software running go to Mozilla preferences, select
Privacy & Security, then Certificates. On that screen there will be a
Manage Security Devices button. If you click on that you should see an
entry for either Activcard or the CAC reader (I'll have to look at my
work computer to give you the exact answer). I *think* i didn't even
have to activate the CAC reader in the GUI. That's all it took and it's
worked fine for me. When you select the Webmail URL you'll see the
Activcard icon on your task bar blink (indicating Mozilla is accessing
the CAC card) and then a dialog will pop up asking for your CAC PIN
number. Assuming that works you'll get the login for Webmail. Don't
forget to put the domain name in first in the user name line (for
example mine is "nadsuswe\lee.zimmerman").
I've also tried Firefox. With no special install or configuration it
recognized the CAC card reader (again, via Activcard), but it insists
upon asking for my user name and password every time you do anything in
Webmail. Too bad because I'd rather run Firefox than Mozilla. Actually,
I'd really rather run Safari, but it does not work with Webmail (since
it won't work with the CAC card). I'm not sure if this changes in
TIger.
We've had lots of problems getting Outlook under Terminal Services to
run reliably on Macs at our location. Also, Webmail on the Mac does not
allow for uploading attachments. My work around is to use Apple Mail
with our local SMTP server to send mail and Webmail to read it.
Hope this helps,

Has anyone gotten NMCI Webmail to work successfully? And what browser
did you use/how did you configure it?
