Re: Recommendations for webmail client on EL8

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Has anyone tried the NextCloud Mail client?  The UI looks pretty nice, but I have not played with it: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/mail

Hi Simon, we used to use Squirrelmail also, but have since migrated to
RoundCube. It's easy enough to install on a CentOS 7 server (we don't
use EL8) by downloading directly from the Roundcube website and
following the installation instructions. The interface is clean, modern,
and the project gets frequent updates. Updates have been mostly
painless, but they can overwrite some of the customizations one might
have made so that is a pain (mostly any CSS customizations or changes to
the default .htaccess file which relates to PHP upload size).

I don't recall needing any hard to find RPMs - we generally don't stray
further than what is available via the CentOS repositories or EPEL.
Well, I know it's not a problem on EL7 but I'd like to upgrade to
something which is a bit more future proof. There's even a roundcube
package in EPEL7 but none in EPEL8, and I guess I know why :-)

Seems quite difficult to do this on EL8:

Hi all,

I'm still trying to find solutions to replace some aging EL6 and EL7
systems.

This time I'm looking at email. Postfix and Cyrus-IMAPd are not a
problem
and also additional things like DKIM are fine. However, I'm wondering
what
to use to replace good old squirrelmail with.

We had a heavily patched squirrelmail with lots of nice things like
avelsieve plugin. Since squirrelmail is dead and unable to run on newer
PHP, I'd like to use some other tool instead.

I was looking at Roundcube but it seems difficult on EL8 because a lot
of
PHP stuff is missing and not available as RPMs. I guess the same is true
for the python things needed for Mailpile. In the end my list only
contains Cypht, Rainloop and Afterlogic Webmail lite.

Is there anybody running webmail on EL8? Can you make a recommendation
on
a certain tool?

Thanks,
Simon
