Webmail package recommendations?

[sraun]

Linux neepery ahead!

I'm currently using NeoMail connecting to local POP3 mailboxes, when I'm not using Mutt (I vastly prefer using Mutt!). I'm being forced to use the webmail if I want to read mail from work - they've blocked ssh & telnet from reaching the outside world, which means no Mutt. :-( I'm running into some ... limitations of NeoMail - it doesn't thread, it doesn't have a mass 'mark read' function that I can find.

So, what's your favorite 'install on my Linux box' webmail package? As I said, I'm currently using POP3, but could be convinced to change to IMAP. I'm currently running a Debian box - I can't get at it right this moment to tell if it's etch or lenny. Requirements are some degree of threading (preferably using the reply-to-message-id, but I'll take by subject), and mass action (at least mark read and move to another folder). I'd like something that used mboxes.

Note: use gmail/your web-mail provider of choice is not an option - I want my e-mail on my storage, not someone else's!

If their firewall is simply blocking outbound connections to the normal SSH port, then picking a different port will likely work, especially if it's one that is normally used for a "approved" external service.

It's more common to direct web stuff through a proxy (I think most filter software actually works as a proxy too), and if that's the case it probably won't work.

You should certainly give it a try, though.
