    I'm looking for a free or low cost email program I can upload to my server. I really like the usability of yahoo and continue to maintain my email there, but I think it costs me some respect by using a free email service. Horde, Squirrel Mail, etc. just don't feel right for me. Something more like hotmail, aol, yahoo, or something is much more comfortable. I never got the hang of outlook, never even tried to learn it. Besides, I'd like to be able to give out some email addresses for moderators of my forums.

    Any suggestions?

    Maby you'll find here a good email program, http://www.hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Email_Systems/Web-based_Email/index.html

    Why don't you just redirecting on your email accounts? That way everybody keeps is own email address and also gets the email of your forums. For instance: redirect to . I know that gmail allows a different reply-to address. So when sending an email from gmail the reciever gets the reply address from @yourforum.com

    I believe running a webmail based email server will draw loads of bandwith.
