Hi, I'm considering migrating away from gmail for my (one-man) company, and I'm trying to decide if dovecot is the right option (I'm committed to self-hosting). I'm a developer, so happy to do my own tooling if needed. *Is there currently a good webmail interface to dovecot, or work-in progress?* If not, would a web interface be out-of-scope for dovecot? I want to use SAML for authentication, so a solution that relies on POP/IMAP doesn't meet my needs - unless I add Kerberos into the mix, which is an additional learning curve, and possibly not widely supported. *Is there currently a good web admin interface to dovecot, or work-in-progress?* If not, would a web interface be out-of-scope? Since I prefer using password-protected SSH keys for shell access, and don't want to tie myself to a laptop (and would hate to use vim on a 3G/4G tablet), I'd like to be able to add/remove aliases and play with SIEVE and ACLs through any available browser. *How's the work on sharing messages between folders progressing?* Finally, and I hope you don't mind me asking, are you aware of a good JAVA based alternative to dovecot? I quite like the idea of using lucene indexing on mailboxes, so reducing the number of dependencies has a certain appeal. Best wishes, Phil Lello

Horde is more "professional" and more like big groupware, and works better on mobile devices, but needs more effort to setup & configure. - -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJW+WBdXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXRGOTZEMUNBMEI1RjQzMThCNjc0QjMzMEFF QUIwM0M1OEJGREM0NzhGAAoJEOqwPFi/3EePCvkP/0rwtCcGfjEtOCZTU9N+Yvcn io+tFQ4EYRN8xCLUSdckqOO1P03DGwHp2yqoTpU/uMWk3vX9jqlGs04fk30uq8TW 2bSTOo+x3EUkzj0wtIgUM25QGq8sII2Su1q20C1iqMyYofnOjmsJ1SoeSOD5xzCh h/LJYNpZjdLmnbesMAitkDFYAlfB0DSdXviP45j4QPL/P+CxwEb1bAbXLbN6Fuir CamjB+3y5Zf2dJGu1lknUfrATgaKz1jScSFx4S8eSxGXhYx0sLY1G3ovxItWFctS O+nhhUrxvfslt4TR6X01DLxZgqHE0ZXi+GD17puRQfRXwOzHv116DjpfayhngsI7 6wTM+QIC8/f9y6J0gpY8VE2UvEwLzcbPeVzhVYG0wulasChBBAqBYBF8lwUY/Nza cFcydxOjCPFnMehmhUHgVWL4IHkN7Seb8jXp1VSEk4Aet9EjO7xf+awI6s8vmClQ 2WcwQNuR6yPjD+N6e5IA8nxQr7tDbuxe4MPsvmdx3K639Fr6HhM8RDLPIsuCU+Jf CW/vYViw1K4jm9C7CoRL8VEssEWxiEmERwMdpibdaaWc3PdbmMDOWPqJRHVmYGY4 gO/ACGmH1ceB5uWGJrLokRVuGSfcCLW9DphnDJsJaUkGyNn33OIRPog7B3eIJp4k BzHNadWcGAmbgDWvlBH5 =Lzsh -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
