Recommend a Mail Server?

I need to get another mail server where i work.

I need one that has an html interface and client connect. Security is a large issue as well as cost which is why exchange is out. it will be used in conjunction w/isa2k and norton av for gateways.

I'm currently leaning towards sendmail for nt bundeled with the html interface.

any input appreciated.

thanks oblio!
that looks like a good package and mandrake rpms are there to make it easy for me, but i didn't find anything listed about a html interface. does it come with one. that would really make my day.

i don't think anyone's developed an html interface for qmail yet. something to email the author about, perhaps?

Get SquirrelMail is not a rpm but it should be no problem to install..

then get that running on modssl (apache) and u have a safe html (php) webmail

Check out www.flashmail.com. I'm pretty sure that they use qmail. You might be able to ask someome there about the html interface.

squirelmail really dosn't look all that secure to me, but qmail does, do you think it would be possible to use php with it? havn't had a reason to learn php so no time to allocate for it, but if its possible, that would be a damme good reason.

Tedob1: Squirrel Mail runs over another server, and anyways, yes, php should be quite easy to use over any standard SMTP server !
