I have tried quite a few. If your talking just for yourself. You may want to think about using Google. Since I switched mine over. I haven't had any problems. Are you wanting to have <a href="mailto:joebob@customdomain.com">joebob@customdomain.com</a> or something like <a href="mailto:xx@qwest.net">xx@qwest.net</a><br>

Roundcube is a little better (some might say) than squirrelmail and is reasonably easy to get running.<br>

RC is much prettier than SM. But it's sometimes a bit broken. For a long while it did not correctly construct MIME messages, so there were problems sending messages with attachments (it may still not -- I haven't checked in the last ~3 months). And while it's moderately easy to hack in new bits there is still no extensions framework, so if it doesn't do exactly what you want you're on your own. For example, I had to hack in a "copy message" feature. There is also no support for S/MIME. And my clients tell me that the message search feature, while functional, leaves much to be desired.<br>
<br>
I think eventually RC will be a great mail client. And for personal use if you know what's going on and are willing to occasionally fight with it/fetch new versions/etc. it's not a terrible choice. But I wouldn't deploy it for someone else to use.<div class="im">

I found Horde to be a challenge to run.<br>

It looks complicated because Horde has about 25,000 options, but it's really not that hard to get going. But only like 1/4 of the Horde options even apply to IMP, and most of them have reasonable defaults.<br>
<br>
IMP all by itself is a pretty decent mail client. It's not quite as pretty as RC, but it's way better than SM. There's also DIMP which is all ajaxy and pretty like RC, though I haven't tested it as extensively. If you install them both there's (virtually) no extra config and you can pick which one you want at login time. MIMP is also handy if you're accessing from a limited device, and likewise requires little extra config and can be selected at runtime.<br>
<br>
I would guess that any of the packaged versions of Horde/IMP are less than a dozen config items/commands away "working". If you're not a package-manager kind of guy I have a source-based install at:<br>
<a href="http://zinux.cynicbytrade.com/svn/local/horde/" target="_blank">http://zinux.cynicbytrade.com/svn/local/horde/</a><br>
that will install Horde, IMP, DIMP, MIMP, and Turba and get you to the point that configuration is just filling in your hostnames and setting up the DB and HTTP server. Even if you are a package-manager kind of guy you could skip the install step in my makefile and generate a mostly-working set of config files for reference.<br>
