I've only set up squirrelmail using their included command-line
configuration utility, but that does let you customize things like
company logos and links. I've not done it, but as I recall there's
full support for using style sheets as well. All in all, I'm very
happy with squirrelmail.

Thanks for all the valuable pointers....!
The reason I wanted to do it in WebObjects, was because I like what
Apple has done with their .Mac webmail system. I quess it would be
easier to customize squirrelmail, but I'm not sure how flexible
it is when designing a new GUI with company logo etc. All the stuff
I've read so far only lets you change basic colors and no mention
on where to actually find the files.
Wouldn't it be great if Apple or some group of programmers would
provide
some basic stuff as starting points (such as webmail, cms, groupware
etc).
WebObjects is very powerful and guess that most of the PHP based
systems
could be easily re-created......if you had the time.

JavaMail ( http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/ )is the standard for
creating mail applications in any java environment. You can indeed use
it to implement a webmail interface in WebObjects, but be prepared to
shed a lot of tears and keep a lot of coffee handy.
The standard webmailer in Mac OS X is SquirrelMail (
http://sourceforge.net/projects/squirrelmail/ ), which is nice, fast,
and customizable. You might be able to achieve desired results in a
much shorter time by customizing your SquirrelMail installation than
writing a completely new WM in WebObjects.
Cheers,

PS: If you *really* want to create a webmailer in WebObjects, Project
Wonder ( http://wonder.sourceforge.net/ ) provides a very nice WO
wrapper for JavaMail's mail sending capabilities in the ERJavaMail
framework.

Hi,
I¹m new to WebObjects and have been playing around with the
tutorials
from Apple,
and the WebObjects Visual Quickpro Guide......Inspired by it all, I
would like to
setup a webmail interface somewhat like the one over at .mac to
replace the standard
webmail interface supplied with MacOS X Server.
How difficult or easy is this and are there any open source
projects/frameworks I could
use to implement it.
Thanks in advance!
