Author Topic: Handling Multiple Account/Hosts (Read 4717 times)

We are looking for a webmail client that can handle multiple accounts being able to retrieve mail from different email server per user ie. to act as a unified email client to embed in our product.

for example

user1 - retrieve email from several different domains/accounts
user2 - retrieve email from Yahoo via POP
user3 - retrieve email from gmail via IMAP

and in some cases more than one external account per user

Can RoundCube do this, or are there any plugsin/hacks to support this, or is it just not possible based on its original design arcitecture?

The accounts plugin myroundcube - Project Hosting on Google Code can get mail from different email servers. However RoundCube doesn't support POP so you can't get emails from Yahoo.

Not that I know of, but you could modify to use multiple smtp servers.

Please fork the plugin if you want to make it to handle multiple smtp services. I will never implement this feature even if it is asked frequently. I want to have control what is going out through my webmail. If others want to have a web app for spammers, please go ahead.

ok, but I don't understand about "web app for spammers" ...

If the user uses his smtp server ... I am not responsible for your email, if he uses my smtp I have to check all users.. or not ?

regards

Rosali I think you misunderstood my intention

We just wat to be able to RETRIEVE mail from multuple IMAP accounts, sending can be via the one authenticated SMTP server.

Anyway we will look at the plug in mentioned, thanks
