  1. @adele wow this takes me back. I implemented #SquirrelMail around the year 2000. I was a big fan. Not sure about now!

  2. Is anybody here using #SquirrelMail as webmail?

    It is a PHP webmail without javascript.

    I would like to have your feedback

  3. @codeofamor Thanks for the list you provided.

    A couple of months ago, maybe even 1 or 2 years ago, I also was searching for a new E-Mail provider. Because IONOS build in features, that they said, should secure their customers. They don't allow sending E-Mails from an Alias anymore. Which hasn't anything to do with securing their customers... Just restricting working configurations. Anyway:

    I couldn't find a new Mailprovider that met my requirements. Sadly at that time neither did mailbox.org or posteo.de.

    The thing is, that I use aliases at my own domain intensively. Like [email protected], twitter@ and so on.

    In the last years, I build a lot of aliases. And, somehow mailbox.org just restrict using them (WTF? - there is absolutely no(!) need to restrict the use of aliases even in their most expensive packet!). And I thought, even posteo was restricting them, but now I can't find that restriction in their docs anymore. And I can't create an Posteo account to find out their abilities, because I need to pay. There doesn't seem to be a way of a "30 day trial period" or something.

    So, long story short: Can't recommend the german mail provider because of some stupid alias restrictions according to their public docs. And, sadly enough, I couldn't find any other provider that would help me with my aliases other than simplelogin.io. Which might be the cheeto-fingered oompah-loompas you mentioned.

    BTW. Posteo advertises 12(!) different colors (schemes) for its web interface on the first place of their website. Come on... it's not 1990 anymore. Although they have a "brand new"(?) dark theme, the web interface looks more like very old SquirrelMail at first glance (squirrelmail.org/screenshots.p)

    Sorry, I don't want to rant. Maybe the privacy features and green energy and free bike repair things for their staff outweigh these things... But I'm not 100% sure if they really can outperform on other important layers in E-Mail Communication, too.

    Also I don't even got started about other Mailboxes that I manage for my family members. I don't think that any of the two would have the possibility to manage multiple own domains for multiple (other? as in: payed by someone else) mailboxes.

    Probably I will start / need to start my own Mailprovider if I had to much time and money.

    You can try Alps. https://sr.ht/~migadu/alps/. It was created by Migadu as a free and open source software.

    Like #Squirrelmail, Alps doesn't use Javascript at all.
  5. @RTP very elaborate and priceless. Thank you, my friend! PS: I also like #Squirrelmail.

    I used to host a dedicated email server + webmail years ago using Sendmail + Squirrelmail.

    📨 SquirrelMail is worth knowing about / trying.

  7. @chrichri Yeah, #Squirrelmail is far more lightweight. #Nextcloud #Mail does need a pretty beefy server, so I wouldn't recommend it on an #RPi or similar. There was another one... #Sogo? that someone mentioned last time I was griping about the lack of decent, modern, #FOSS #webmail options. It looked OK, and had a mobile web interface.

  8. It might be easier to get a list of words that #Squirrelmail DOESN'T bounce for spam or porn than those it doesn't! @Johncdvorak #NoAgenda

  9. @noagendaquotes @adam @Johncdvorak the reason we always email Adam instead is because we know #Squirrelmail will keep our complaints away from John!

  10. @0x3F @0x3F #RiseUp.net used to offer multiple web clients for their mail server (#SquirrelMail and #Imp). Their #webmail login page had a set of login/ password fields for each client they offered, but that was years ago, and it could be done now with a drop-down that allows users to choose the web UI for that session, defaulting to the one they used on last login. There are many pros to an instance landing page being separate from the #ActivityPub app.
