Any other webmail program compatible with cpanel?

[emoedesign]

Hi there,

I'm trying to find a different webmail program to use instead of horde, squirrel & neomail. Does anyone know of one that is compatible with cpanel or has anyone done this before??? I've been looking at "@mail" (http://atmail.com/), but i have no clue about coding and add ons for cpanel.

Thanks for any info you have

this was not written by me.

Well after seeing this post I could not wait for cpanel to one day eventualy add this mail system so I decided I would give it a try adding it to cpanel myself.

How I did it:
First download the package from http://www.roundcube.net/

Unzip this and rename the file to roundcube so we have a nice file name for cpanel to access.

Open the main.inc.php file and find
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = '';

change this to:
$rcmail_config['default_host'] = 'localhost';

now open db.inc.php
and make sure the database connection settings are ok
mysql://root:rootmysqlpassword@localhost/roundcubemail

Now goto WHM and click phpMyAdmin add the database roundcubemail.
Run mysql.initial.sql that is included in the SQL file of roundcube.

Now somehow I dont know how you will go about doing It I use WinSCP for uploading files.
Upload the whole roundcube directory to /usr/local/cpanel/base/

Now if you goto
http://yourdomain:2082/roundcube/index.php

You should be greeted with the login page.

Now to make it so users can access this from the webmaillogin.html page goto
/usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x
or whatever your theme is and download the webmaillogin.html page.

Add the following code after the first </cpanelif>

<td align="center" valign="bottom" width="200">
<a href="/roundcube/index.php"><img src="images/roundcube_logo.png" border="0"></a><br /><a href="/roundcube/index.php">RoundCube</a>
</td>

Also place a copy of the roundcube/skins/default/images/roundcube_logo.png
into /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x/images.

Hope this explains how to do it, took me 10 mins to work this all out.



MORE STEPS:
Just relised it was not appearing in http://www.yourdomain.com:2095


Then upload the image roundcube/skins/default/images/roundcube_logo.png to
/usr/local/cpanel/base/webmail/x/images
