I have a C6 machine running squirrelmail that I've been trying to get upgraded. I bought a new machine and have C8 installed, postfix, dovecot, SA, the works, running. But, I couldn't get squirrelmail running. I'm also very interested in the answer to this question, "what webmail to run on C8" (or stream in the future). I've looked at the same SW apps you have and have not really gotten a warm fuzzy over anything. I wonder if another tact to take would be to try to get squirrelmail more "modern". I know Les is still doing a bit of dev, but it does seem like squirrelmail is lagging behind. MTC, Jay

[CentOS] Recommendations for webmail client on EL8
Jay, I agree, the last post on https://squirrelmail.org/ was an announcement for PHP 5.4 and 5.5 Compatibility? from 5/30/2013. The last plugin update was 3/28/2014.? I consider squirrelmail pretty much dead at this point.

I do have both of them: roundcube and squirrelmail. When I tell my users about the options, I tell them roundcube is modern and fancy. Squirrelmail, though same good, is more older style. So, they have choices to match their taste. And again, this is irrelevant to Linux. But both roundcube and squirrelmail will not be phased out in close future (my own estimate), though squirrelmail has reached the stage when new features will not be added (nothing bad about that in my book).
