Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to webmail thoughts

Collapse
Posted by Malte Sussdorff on
A few students of mine have been thinking about improvements for ACES to use at our university. As we are not allowed to run our own mailserver they are going to investigate tying webmail to the POP Mailserver which runs at our university department. The idea is to POP the mail from the mailserver everytime the user logs into the webmail client. There are still some issues though like how do you get the mail from the webmail system to your offline Mailreader (has anyone written a POP server in TCL ?). Will keep you posted if and how they succeed.
