Webmail is much less efficent than IMAP both for the server and the client. I run SquirrelMail on (on Apache) my server, and it consumes far more CPU and RAM than Dovecot. It is also much slower in most operations compared with IMAP. Though I have not measured it, I suspect the bandwidth consumption is much higher because of HTML mark-up and images. In any case, webmail would not solve the problem of too many folders being displayed. I would get just as long a list, with a hard to use scrollbar, but rendered as html instead of in a menu. -- David Pottage
