In this case, I would take a look at dbmail (dbmail.org) It uses a SQL backend for storing messages and users. If you're just sending mail locally, but use the tables, etc. You'll need to build your own frontend, but you could use something like RoundCube or Squirrelmail to talk to it. I still like my Zimbra server idea, better for this. --Curtis Stuart Dallas wrote: > On Thursday, 17 March 2011 at 16:56, Negin Nickparsa wrote: > internal messaging system > > In that case it's simply a matter of creating a table structure to hold > the messages and building an interface that will display them and allow > new messages to be added, probably with email-based notifications.
