 Hi,

 I want to install a webmail interface on a server
 of my provider running qmail.

Do you mean the provider you own or work for or do you mean the provider
you have an account with or subscribe to?
Because if it is the latter, your chances of getting them to install
anything on the server are about the same as your chances of coming home
tonight and finding you've won the lottery.

 The problem is that I've only restricted
 access and no IMAP.

What do you mean by restricted access?  Restricted access to install
software on the server?  Restricted access because your firewall at work
blocks certain ports and you can't POP3?

 What I want is simply a login
 to connect via pop3 to a account and read the mails in a browser.

Is this happening on the server or on your local machine?  Which machine is
talking POP3 to which other machine?

 Unfourtunately I couldn't find anything that seems to fit.

 Hope this is not too off topic, thanks for any suggestions Tom



Tom, your post is ambiguous and I can't deduce your meaning and exactly what
you are trying to do.

If your question is what I tentatively think it is, consider an account with
www.hotmail.com and set up the POP3 services (which retrieve mail from other
hosts) so that it yanks your mail to your hotmail box (and you can set an
option so it doesn't delete the mail).  I used to do this to get my own
e-mail from my own server in my apartment, because at work the firewall
wouldn't allow POP3.

Best regards, Dave.

Hi David, Hi All,

I'll try. I have an hosting provider where I have my
pop3 et al. At home it's easy to check my mails
from their or even to pull it with fetchmail. But
on the road I have to set up something like 
hotmail for security reasons.
No I want to install an qmail frontent on this server
which allows me to get rid of this pull to my hotmail
account. I don't want (and even cant use) IMAP.
All the webmailers I found were dependent on IMAP..
So my question is, if there is a webbased mailer with
the functionality of, say, hotmail which I can install
locally on the server of my hosting provider, where
I've limited access on directories and no Imap.
What I intend to do is to login with my normal
pop account and check my mails via tcp/ip...

Thanks Tom ;-)

if your provider cooperates with you, you could ask them
to install sqwebmail for example. another idea is to use a service
like www.techmail.de. this is a service which connects to a pop3
server that you specified. 

hope that helps,

philipp

I don't know it I should really post this, but the hosting company I work
for has a free Webmail based site that allows you to connect to any pop
account around the world.  You can find it at http://webmail.kwsonline.com
